How is the Experiential Learning Industry Positioned in India?
For a very long the
India Education system has been plagued to the traditional classroom learning
methodology, unconsciously promoting rote learning among students. Students
were just focused on getting good marks in school by memorising concepts to
stay ahead of the growing competition. It was only after 2010 when educational
institutes and start-ups made efficient use of technology and the concept of
experiential learning and “learning by doing” methodology gained traction among
parents and students. Ed-Tech start-ups in India are trying to take over the
unorganised tuition classes industry by providing a technology driven, convenient
and fun educational solution to students. Such kind of products also to address
to the pain-points of parents such as increasing futile screen time of kids,
lack of time to parents due to changing lifestyle and growing future
competition & job security concerns.
There are different
kinds of e-learning start-ups providing different type of solution. Initially
e-learning consisted of learning videos and virtual live classes. Two important
concepts namely activity kit subscription and K12 E-Learning/Experiential
Learning solution have gained traction in the last 5-6 years.
Activity kit
subscription solution is for 2-14 years old kids. Subscribers usually get 1 box
every month that includes theme based multiple hands-on activities, worksheets,
guidebook and other complimentary components. On the other hand, e-learning
solution majorly focuses on reinforcing academic learning through animated
educational videos, stories, educational games, quiz, personalised learning
path, progress tracker, live classes and other AI based features on their app.
Currently there are
multiple educational solutions in the market, however there exist a gap such as
increasing number of drop-outs, unavailability of material in regional language
and others that has lead to limited adoption in tier 2 and tier 3 cities. Such
gaps can be filled by an integrated product that promotes learning by blend of
activity kits, educational videos, live-classes and other AI based features. Parents
currently need to subscribe to multiple educational product to engage their kid
in the after-school time in a fun and educational manner. There is a need of a
one-stop-shop solution that fulfils all the after school requirement of
parents.
