Background

Education in rural India has been a long-standing challenge due to various factors ranging from improper infrastructure, shortage of qualified teachers, and poverty, forcing children to work instead of attending school.

In many parts of India, access to reliable internet is a challenge. With only 5% of rural India having access to the internet, online learning is nearly impossible. While infrastructures are being built to connect Indians to the internet eventually, completion dates are not in the immediate future.

Vedantu, India’s leading e-learning platform, is helping India learn and ensuring education won’t stop, no matter where you are. Ensuring the solution was easy to install and use, as well as scalable to cover a significant part of the country, bringing uninterrupted education and connectivity to students.

Idea

A pioneer in modern education, The Everything Book is an internet signal aggregator. It houses a cloud-based AI packet broadcaster and assembler service that combines weak 2G mobile networks around it into one 4G “Hyperspot”. It's a vast country, but this lets children connect to Vedantu from the remotest corners of India.

Since the device is handheld and needs to be charged like a mobile phone, it can be transported anywhere easily. Children access courses for free, right from grade 1, their foundational years of education to grade 12 - a critical year in an Indian child’s education.

The Everything Book was brought to life through rigorous research, curation, and thoughtfully designing the most fundamental aspects of the book right from the detailing of the pages to the overall experience of making it inclusive, distinctive and easy to absorb for the minds building India’s future.
