World’s Best Content Library
At the core of smartclass is a vast repository of digital rich-media content across grades K-12 mapped to meet the specific objectives laid out by the central and state boards across the country. The content is available across 12 boards and 5 regional languages in addition to English, Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil, and Kannada. The content offers comprehensive coverage and is mapped to chapters/topics of books prescribed for CBSE board in subjects such as Math, EVS, Science, Social Science, Commerce, and Arts.
The multimedia content repository ENGAGES students by bringing abstract concepts to life, help them PRACTICE using exercises, sample papers, and interactivities/simulations. Students can reinforce learning using SUMMARY resources such as topic synopses and concept maps. Teachers can EVALUATE students on the concepts taught using objective and subjective tests. Bright students can also EXPLORE the topics further using resources such as weblinks, real life applications, and assessment for learning. The table below summarizes the various content types available in each category of resources that the teachers can use in the classroom.

Schools Speak
It has always been my dream to see technology becoming an integral part of a teacher's life inside the classrooms. The smartclass program implemented in our schools has indeed been like a dream come true.
The modules are both informative and enjoyable and it has enhanced the teaching and learning process.
The teaching methodology has transformed from an orthodox, laborious method of verbal explanation to a very interactive and graphical presentation, making teaching more interesting to the teachers and learning easy and enjoyable for the students.
The smartclass program has made the classroom sessions very interesting and interactive. It is helpful for both, the teacher and students in the learning process.
