AI appu Rocket learning tool app children - Careerswin

Appu is an AI-based learning tool that teaches children in a fun way. This tool is specially designed for children between the ages of 3 and 6 and has been developed in collaboration with Google. Can it make children's education cheaper and easier?

AI-based education: 

Nowadays, a lot of money is spent on children's education, be it school or tuition. But now with AI 'Appu', children's education can be made even easier and cheaper. An organization named Rocket Learning has created a special learning tool named Appu, which helps children learn in a playful way. 

It has been developed jointly with Google. It is very beneficial, especially for children between the ages of 3 and 6, and can prove to be a great help, especially for children who are from poor families.

How is Appu different?

Rocket Learning founders Vishal Sunil and Aziz Gupta say that usually the study apps teach the same things to children again and again, which makes them bored. But Appu teaches children in a fun way and through questions and answers. If the child finds it difficult to understand a subject, Appu explains it in a new way, so that the child can learn quickly.

Learning by voice

Sound is used a lot between children and parents in India. That is why their founders say that Appu has been designed to teach through voice. Currently, it is available in Hindi, but soon it will come in Marathi, Punjabi, and 20 other languages so that children can also learn in their mother tongue.

The human aspect of AI

Appu is not just an ordinary machine, but it is a tutor who talks to children, helps them and explains to them. Before making it, Rocket Learning has carefully understood the methods of good teachers so that it can be easy and interesting for children. It also activates the minds of children and helps them think better.

Google's support

Google has also helped in the development of Appu. Google says that they supports those organizations that are bringing big social changes using AI. So far, Google has contributed more than $200 million in AI-based projects and Appu is also a step in this direction.

Challenges and Way Forward

Depending too much on AI can affect the thinking ability of children, so Appu has been designed in such a way that it creates more curiosity in the minds of children. Also, many people in India are not digitally literate, so Appu has also been made available on WhatsApp so that parents can use it easily. Apart from this, Anganwadi workers have also been added to it so that it can reach more children.

Target to reach 50 million children

Let us tell you that Rocket Learning aims to reach 50 million children with Appu by 2030. They believe that if this education is limited to only a few special children, then the digital gap in society can increase further. 

Therefore, they are developing it as a public digital resource. In collaboration with the government, a plan is also being made to make Anganwadi centers good centers of education. Through this AI tool, the early education of children in India can be made even better and more effective.
