In order to ensure positive outcomes in rural schools, Muskaan Dreams has divided the program into three major parts.
How It Works
What’s different with Muskaan Dreams?
We all are aware with the premium models of digital learning tools available in the market since long time. Most of the digital models are designed for the urban private schools in a very high recurring cost. Government schools in India are still lagging behind in digital education because lack of content is available in local language and lack of contextualization in content. Also, level of children in urban and private schools are very different in terms of understanding, learning and we can’t use existing tools in government schools without contextualization. Our partner designed enjoyable content for the government schools children and our associates are closely working with teachers on a weekly basis for 2-3 years to improve their user experience and teaching method.

Impact Story
आप जानते हो हैकर कौन होता है? During a field visit at #digitalshaala when Abhishek Dubey asked students what they want to become in life, one boy caught everyone's attention with his reply...Meet Shivam, a 9th-standard student who lives in the village of Piparsewa and wants to become a #hacker when he grows up.When he said, "मैं हैकर बनना चाहता हूँ".
There was pin-drop silence in the class. To double-check what we just heard, we asked him again, "आप जानते हो हैकर कौन होता है? he nodded in a yes. Excited, we asked him if he would like to tell his classmates the meaning of a hacker and what a hacker does.With a smile on his face he replied, "हैकिंग एक तकनिकी क्षमता है जिससे आप किसी के भी कंप्यूटर या स्मार्टफोन का इस्तेमाल बिना उनकी जानकारी के कर सकते है" he further added, "देश विदेश में कंप्यूटर वार्स होते है एक सक्षम हैकर देश को साइबर अटैक्स से बचा सकता है और मैं हैकर बन कर देश की सेवा करना चाहता हूँ" The entire class burst into applause.
We were keen to know more about him and as we spoke to Shivam, we realized his liking towards technology. We briefly touched upon big words like artificial intelligence, 5G, robotics and much more. He shared with us that he learnt about hacking through an elder in his community. With digital shaala, he feels more inclined to learn. ""मुझे टेक्नोलॉजी पसंद है, इसलिए स्मार्ट टी वी से पढ़ना ज़्यादा अच्छा लगता है" The best part? He is motivated to follow his dream.
This is one story out of 100k students, studying at Digital Shaala and we are rooting for every dream.
