The education field in India is mired in tradition, ideology and incumbent interests. There is a need for a transformation in education that will help make the learning that is imparted current and relevant. Today’s children live in a world that is constantly connected, and alive outside the class room. Yet education is still delivered through traditional means. The true revolution in education will come from digitization of education so that children can learn at their own pace both within and outside the classroom. All this while they continue to benefit from the nurturing, mentorship and guidance of teachers. This combination of traditional teaching pedagogy coupled with digitized learning is one of the ways we can prepare our upcoming generations to become global contributors who can communicate across culture, time and geographies.
