The ambitious hi-tech school project of the state government has completed one year and now Kerala has become the first state in the country to achieve digital education.

According to the latest tweet by Thomas Isaac, “Kerala has become the first state to achieve total digitalisation of school education. 42000 classrooms from 8th to 12th have laptops, projectors, and screens. Classrooms networked with school studios. All LP and UP schools ensured at least one smart classroom with a computer lab.”

The state government aimed to complete the hi-tech project by June and finally, it’s progressing.

According to a statement by K Anvar Sadath, vice-chairman and executive director of KITE, “The hi-tech learning in schools is facilitated though Samagra resource portal which is accessed in all hi-tech classrooms equipped with laptops, projectors, USB speakers and broadband internet connectivity in addition to the IT Labs. Through the Hi-Tech school project, KITE has provided High Speed Broadband Internet Connectivity to 4,751 schools in the state, with the exception of Tholpetty Government High School in Wayanad district, due to geographical constraints.

The networking of classrooms is progressing on a war-foot basis. Mini servers in labs would also be made operational. An assessment by KITE has found that 92 percent of teachers are effectively making use of the hi-tech facilities in their classrooms.

KITE, formerly IT@School project under the state General Education Department, is a special purpose vehicle envisaged to promote IT education in state schools.

“We have completed the deployment of laptops, multi-media projectors, mounting kits, USB Speakers etc to 40,083 classrooms and additionally 16,500 laptops for the computer labs are also being deployed the week,” K Anvar Sadath said.
