What we are Innovating
1. Gamification
Gamification is a hot-topic for research in the Education sector. We at Meritstore have already started working on the “Gamification” project and the first such games will appear in the Std. 8 & 9 Foundation Courses.
Gamification of courses, in simple terms is the inclusion of games as a teaching/learning tool. This was a much needed step since the millenium generation has proved to understand gaming rules better than anytime before.
Caution : Gamification should only be used for courses that are fun-filled.
2. Focus on Skill Development
This stands important as in India, 80% engineers are considered to be unemployed after undergrad years. To make matters worse, there is a surplus of demand by students for engineering seats. This will eventually lead to a large chunk of engineers to go unemployed or take up other professions.
Working professionals need a mix of skills like management, communication and technical skills. These skill are quite overlooked during the undergrad years due to vast technical syllabus and constraint of time. The student is left alone by the universities to learn these skills.
At Meritstore, we have planned courses on Employability, Management, Communication and more. We have planned skill development courses that help students to acquire skills required by the industry.
3. Machine Learning & Data Science
Data is a very important asset. In the future, Data will be a trending topic and we are preparing for it.
Data gives us access to user behavior and preferences. When a machine is capable of understanding human behavior, it can serve the user in a better way.
