Transforming Classroom Learning
Digital Shiksha replaces textbook-heavy teaching with state-of-the-art Interactive Flat Panels (IFPs) and licensed K-12 digital curriculum. This visual, engaging format helps students grasp concepts faster while enabling teachers to deliver structured, digital-first lessons.
At NeeV Learning Centre, the installation provides immersive content across science, mathematics, and languages, creating interactive classroom experiences that boost engagement and comprehension.
Comprehensive Implementation Model
The program goes beyond hardware installation. Digital Shiksha includes teacher training, student orientation, regular monitoring visits, and backend analytics to track usage, adoption, and support needs. This comprehensive approach ensures consistent, measurable impact.
Anshita Sharma Gupta, Group CEO of Da One, emphasized that education should be inclusive, future-ready, and accessible to every child. Digital Shiksha reflects this belief by bringing immersive learning to classrooms that need it most.
Proven Success in Remote Regions
Digital Shiksha has shown particularly strong uptake in technology-scarce areas. The foundation was first to introduce immersive digital learning in Ladakh, installing the region’s first IFP in Kargil, which recorded 30 hours of active usage in just 30 days.
Schools consistently report better attention spans, clearer understanding of concepts, and higher student participation following implementation.
Strategic CSR Partnership
Preeti Sandhal, Vice President of People Success (India Business) at TBO Tek Limited, highlighted that access to quality education is one of the most powerful equalizers. The partnership reflects TBO’s commitment to enabling inclusive, technology-driven learning.
As a technology-led organization, TBO understands the transformative impact digital tools have on learning outcomes, confidence, and aspirations.
Expanding Nationwide Reach
The foundation’s digital education journey began with the Smart Libraries Initiative in 2022, introducing basic digital tools. This paved the way for Digital Shiksha, now a proven model for low-resource environments actively serving 25+ schools.
Founded by former India international cricketer Shikhar Dhawan in 2022, the foundation operates across education, healthcare, hunger eradication, livelihood development, and sports through long-term, scalable programs.
