Delhi schools will soon possess sophisticated education system with AI smart boards and robotics

Delhi education minister Ashish Sood on Saturday informed that the city schools would soon boast an advanced education system with artificial intelligence, smart boards, and robots. While addressing a state-run school in Gujarat's Surat, Sood was hopeful that this move would not only improve the quality of education in Delhi's govt schools but also expose students to new technologies.

The education minister toured different classes of the school and saw how the teaching and learning process was being implemented on smart boards. He spoke with students to learn how practical smart boards are and how much education the students gain through this technology. The govt, in a statement, stated the minister also toured the school's AI and Robotics Lab where he saw hands-on projects being executed by students on topics like drones, 3D printers, and sophisticated sensor security systems.

Sood stated even with being the national capital with all the resources at hand, Delhi's government schools had only a handful of smart boards, whereas Gujarat, with all its natural adversities like every year's floods in many districts, has been able to set up more than 1.1 lakh smart classrooms.

The visit of the minister was to see for himself the implementation of the National Education Policy 2020 and the finer points of education that the various states had adopted. He stated that Gujarat's reforms in state schools were exemplary and other states should learn from them.
