AI Transforms Rural Preschools in Maharashtra
A preschool in a village in India is using new technology to teach kids.
They have VR headsets, smart boards, and tablets.
This helps kids learn in fun ways and makes them want to come to school more often.
The school is also using AI to help kids learn at their own speed.
The goal is to make sure kids in the countryside get the same opportunities as those in cities.
An AI-powered anganwadi in Maharashtra is bridging the digital divide in rural education.
Children use VR headsets, smart boards, and tablets for learning foundational concepts.
The project, part of the Mission Bal Bharari initiative, was inaugurated in July.
Over 25 children regularly attend, up from 10 before the tech integration.
The initiative aims to expand to 40 more anganwadis and improve nutrition tracking.
