Managing EditorAlok ChaturvediSudhakar SinghEmmanuel Christi DasEditorialEditorialTechnology has impacted almost every aspect of life today, and education is no exception. To land on an unbiased conclusion, let's just understand that in some ways, education seems much the same as it has been for many years. An illustration by Laurentius de Voltolina depicts a university lecture. The teacher lectures from a podium at the front of the room while the students sit in rows and listen. Some of the students have books open in front of them and appear to be following along. A few look bored. Some are distracted or talking to their mates. One in the corner, appears to be conveniently sleeping. Now, look up Laurentius de Voltolina in Google. The parchment based illustration is set in medieval Italy and the artist we're talking about here is a 14th century figure. Stupefied yet? To be fair, this is almost a modern setup of a classroom. Classrooms today do not look much different, though you might find students looking at their laptops, tablets, or smart phones instead of books. Whether they are logged in to Facebook or not, that's a different question. A cynic would say that technology has done nothing to change education.However, in `n' number of ways, technology has profoundly changed education. For one thing, technology has greatly expanded access to education. In medieval times, books were rare and only an elite few had access to educational opportunities. Individuals had to travel to centers of learning to get an education. Today, massive amounts of information (books, audio, images, videos) are available at one's fingertips through the Internet, and opportunities for formal learning are available online worldwide through the Khan Academy, MOOCs, podcasts, traditional online degree programs, and more. Access to learning opportunities today is unprecedented in scope thanks to technology. More so, India's huge youth dividend makes education an essential service. Young India's startup regime are on the rise because they have clearly understood, EXACTLY where are we falling short. Riding this dawn of awakening or transformation, we have enlisted the top 20 most promising startups in this domain. They are doing their bit, we thought we should do ours by showcasing them. Do let us know what you think.Emmanuel Christi DasAsst. Managing Editoremmanuel@cioreviewindia.comA 100 Percent Literacy Rate is not Far !
