Intel Learn Programmes

Intel Learn Programmes: "Intel Learn Programmes

Intel learn is an IT enabled education program, which was implemented through Akshaya platform in 2004 in collaboration with Intel Education Initiative under Public Private Partnership (PPP) model. The aim of implementing the program was not only to bridge the digital gap but also for developing effective learning practices amongst children. This project was piloted in one of the backward districts - Malappuram in the year 2004 and has emerged into one of the most dynamic public-private-partnerships interventions in the State and the country. So far, the program has been impacted over 30,000 learners across 7 districts and has also helped sustain the Akshaya entrepreneurs.

The curriculum has been translated in Malayalam and specially designed to accommodate Akshaya community technology centers with a wide range of technology infrastructure—from newer, more sophisticated facilities to those with fewer resources"
