Improved education technology increases learning results

Proof of large -scale technological intervention in India Presents the impact of teaching assisted by technology on the literacy of kindergarten to the 12th year using a multi-sensory technological platform based on AI in a large cut of public schools in India.

The study focused on reading and understanding in English. The intervention improves the educational efficiency of teachers and the learning capacity of children in the existing educational environment without any new educational design or pedagogy or content. The intervention is implemented by existing teachers and not external volunteers.

In total, 1 million children and 15,000 teachers in 5,000 public schools in the states of Maharashtra, Western Bengal, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Gujarat and Karnataka used the artificial intelligence technology For the 2016-2017 academic year.

• Using a randomized assessment of control treatment, the study finds an overall gain of 20 to 40% in learning results in the treatment sample. Gains in individual states and notes vary.
• The learning results have increased throughout the range of skill levels in a note. Self-administered assessments in progress report an even higher impact in the beach of 50 to 60%.
• In addition, teachers also declared to improve their skills following the use of technology, which suggests that intervention can also mitigate the shortage of teachers and inadequate teachers' training.

The document also briefly reports on the growing adoption of the program in several countries outside India. The results are significant promising to disrupt low and stagnated literacy levels in public schools in India and other similar environments.

The intervention and the ongoing assessments clearly show that the power of learning has enabled technologies to allow science to have a beneficial impact on learning results and specifically the acquisition and understanding of languages. This has important implications for learning any subject.

It is possible to massively set an impact educational technology To have an impact on whole populations. It is important to note that technology does not introduce any new educational content. It should also be noted that it has been successfully placed in environments with low infrastructure and significant change in change management.
