my frd is planning to start an edutech startup, yh I know eduTech is severely down, despite education system and how we learn needs a Big change and innovation for better india.
so I request all to suggest idea, thoughts around this. thanks
[hint of my frds idea: planning to certification and ranking for schools and colleges teachers and training them instead of training the students, what do you think?]
Don’t want to demoralise you but that’s one bad idea. No teacher will pay for this. Please do ground research.
Really understand pain points of customers, such is first define them are you working for schools or teachers or students ?
Education is a big sector with very small pockets of opportunities. competitive coaching being the only shining light here .
yes, agreed but lucky for him since he is one of the sound members of cbse and education council. second there is way to approach the market, which is the key
let's not worry about the execution because of course I haven't explain the entire plan here.
latest only focus on the idea, suggest your own idea to improve the educational system
With 5G/6g and AI, personalised learning will grow.
Not all students are same.
Think of a product from that perspective.
Like best mathematician teaching students at Bombay as well as California l, a village and Beijing in different languages at same time using ML and hologram technology.
Skill development and development of entrepreneurial skills.
Shiksha and Career360 does same as ur frd thinks... Training teachers ain't gonna bring change.
Be a tech firm which can replace teachers...sound obnoxious but that's the future

nice views, but too much ai edutechs
It may just work if you start calling it edutech.
Be the computer science department for schools, give students actual computer science education they need. create hackerspace, do projects, etc.
nice, a pain point that i forgot about
you could build 8bit computers, breadboard computers, with lcd panels.. write toy OS (like CP/M, Z-80, etc) for it with some utilities like text editor (vi), assemblers or interpreters (like BASIC), distribute it to students and you can start giving them fundamental computer science education. It all starts with a 8bit microcomputer.
If you use color supported lcd panels, you could teach them to build GameBoy games like Mario, thats quite fun!
It's a great idea. ... To raise funds. There is big money waiting for the edtech reset.
But I am cynical when someone posts such ideas in open. Two years back I did like this to understand the market. Another guy swopped in and copied my idea, made a few crores. Ofcourse the "startup" failed to identify PMF, but he made crores.
Ideas are worth nothing, execution is everything
😂
Edtech is dead, agreed. But we haven't reached the quality of output which is expected from education in India. We don't have quality outputs, most youngsters are unemployed and this change has to start from education.
Byju, UA or Veda...
What is wrong with EdTech these days? What's the future of EdTech in India?
