Educomp Solutions plans to add 40,000 classrooms under Smartclass program by March '12

NEW DELHI: Educomp Solutions Ltd launched an upgraded version of its technology product smartclass - smartclass Class Transformation System (CTS) in the Capital on Friday. The company plans add around 40,000 classrooms under smartclass by end of the current fiscal year.

Educomp will provide the new version to all the schools that use smartclass solutions free of cost. At present, over eight million students use the smartclass solution. On an average, the company earns about Rs 150 per student per month through smartclass.

The smartclass program enables teachers to explain various concepts to their students better, with the help of technology in the form of graphics and animation.

According to Educomp, the new version is enhanced with a range of ready-to-deploy resources, which not only includes animation and graphics, but also simulations, mind maps, worksheets, web links, diagram maker, graphic organisers and assessment tools. "These resources have been created for almost every chapter in very subject across every board in India," the company stated.

Shantanu Prakash, MD and CEO of Educomp Solutions said the company decided to launch an upgraded version as a few other players in the education segment had created similar products in the last couple of years. "The new program will create a new blue ocean for us," he added. The company earns about 67% of its revenues from the smartclass program.
