Addressing the participants at the launch, Rohit Pande, CEO, Classteacher Learning Systems said, "Our education system does not differentiate students according to the learning capabilities and teach them at the same level, but the software installed in Classpad tests students' problem solving, creativity and application of language skills. It provides them with personalized teaching as per their learning capabilities. Equipped with artificial intelligence, Classpad can help to categorize students as fast learners, average learners and slow learners. Classpad can assist in reducing the monotony of repetitive sessions in the classroom. Teachers can now complete their syllabus within schedule and get considerable time to focus on slow learners."
Classpad is available for students in standard 3 to 12th.
