EdZilla Software Technologies Pvt. Ltd.,






ABOUT THE COMPANY

We envision a prosperous, inclusive and educated India powered by technology driven solutions.

Who we are

EdZilla is a Bangalore based social enterprise that was started in Nov 2011 by three IITians to develop software solutions to enable quality education in rural India. The company develops low-cost technology solutions specially tailored for rural India where poor or no Internet connectivity is the norm.

The key features of the solution are

  • Enriched, interactive, curricular content in the local language rendered on smart phones or low-cost tablets to facilitate self-learning
  • Adaptability to each child's learning pace and knowledge level
  • Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation(CCE) of the performance of each child
  • Enriched content as Teaching Learning Material(TLM) for teachers

Our motivation

  • Less than 50% of our children in rural schools can read and still less can do basic arithmetic
  • Severe dearth of trained teachers
  • Not enough teacher training institutes to catch up on the deficit any time soon
  • If this trend continues, India which has the largest youth population in the world may also end up having the largest percentage of its youth unfit for most new-age jobs

Turning this adversity into an opportunity to introduce technology assisted learning in rural schools is the need of the hour.

Our mission

  • Raise the quality of education in Government schools closer to that in private schools
  • Bring fast paced learning to rural India and make it a fun experience for children
  • Enable children to learn at home too, with parents
  • Bridge the e-divide between rural and urban children
  • Make a profound social impact through technology based solutions for quality education

The EducateZilla Program

As the saying goes 'The proof of the pudding is in the eating'. We are extremely proud of how our NGO arm, Suvidya Foundation, has provided such proof by deploying the solution in rural government schools across Karnataka as part of its EducateZilla program. Suvidya Foundation used the EzMirror suite to develop enriched content for the Karnataka state Kannada medium syllabus. Suvidya Foundation also created training material for its field mentors using EzMirror. Now Suvidya Foundation has used EzMirror to create preparation material for the National Means cum Merit Scholarship(NMMS) examination.
