Class Saathi, enabling the critical stakeholder: The Teacher

“Yeh bachon ke padhayi ke level ko samajhne mein bohot zabardast hai aur woh bhi fataak se” (This device is too good at helping us understand student learning levels, and that too at lightning speed)

Mrs Meena, a Grade 5 math teacher in a Government School, Bhopal tells us even before presented with a question.

And this is precisely why we built Class Saathi. To enable existing teachers, who do not lack pedagogical knowledge, instead the hours lost in doing the administrative work. Class Saathi gives these teachers that one smart tool, with no need for electricity or internet, that enables them to take well-informed data-backed decisions to increase student learning levels, engagement and attendance.

With more than 7 million students dropping out of the Indian education system and the context of public schools in India, it’s impossible for conventional smart school systems to reduce the learning gaps. There is a dire need for a paradigm shift for teachers: from being Sage on the Stage, burdened by administrative tasks, to a side free from administrative tasks that allow strategic focus on learning outcomes.

Class Saathi instantly connects all stakeholders and enables multiple feedback loops assisted by features using the power of AI. Enabled with a Learning Outcome Management System and Student Reports, students in a classroom learn effectively and increase teachers’ productivity. In one of the early pilot tests with over 1000 students in the experimental group and over 500 students in the control group, we found that attendance and learning outcomes increased with Class Saathi in action by 10% and 8%, respectively, in just 30 days.

Motivated by the early success, Pankaj Agarwal (HBS Class of 2021) and his team at TagHive (a Samsung funded spin-off) have been doing multiple iterations while adding more features to empower teachers in transforming their role from “a sage on the stage” to that of “a guide on the side”.

Teach your children to love Maths with these tips!

Mathematics or Maths for short, has been an item of absolute terror for students across generations. There’s no easy way to say this but Maths, you are more feared than you are loved. Before you read the above sentences and agree with us, remember that this is the fear that you can prevent your children from embodying and you could break the bad spell surrounding Maths. Want to know how? We have a list of five tips you can use!


1 . Lead the change you want to see –

If you have had a bad experience with Maths and you constantly narrate it to your children, then they start internalizing a fear for the subject. This is something that you may want to prevent. Granted that Maths may not have been easy for you but the goal is to make sure your child does not approach the subject with any preconceived fears. Maths anxiety is real and very catchy.

2. Know what they need to know and by when –

Each grade or level is assigned a specific set of math skills a child needs to know. For instance, kindergarten Maths will require number recognition and your child will need to know how to conceptualize numbers through examples; they should be able to count out five apples in a basket of ten. Knowing what they need to know is useful when you want to complement their school learning with activities at home.

3. Allow them to learn through conceptual experiences –

Maths is best learnt as a life skill and not a textbook concept. If your child is old enough to own a bank account, help them set up one. Additionally, you could ask them to keep track of their savings with the passbook and also teach them to calculate various things such as interest rates. This is a fun way to see Maths being used live in action! Also dispels the fear if they are rewarded for it through their savings account!

4. Board Games are fun when it comes to Maths –

There are plenty of fun board games that require the use of applied Mathematics for victory. Games like Monopoly are not just great family games but will also teach your kids to appreciate the finesse with which Maths is being used everywhere, especially for fun!

5. Avoid Tuitions for performance –

Tuitions the way we have experienced are the most detrimental experiences for students who want to learn Maths. We send students for tuitions in the country only in the event that they are doing very poorly at it. A child forced into tuition will believe that they are incompetent at that subject. Introduce tuitions as a concept to help them hone their skills instead of a method to discipline learning. It may be difficult to find a teacher who can help your student this way but till you do, avoid standardised tuition practices.


Maths is only as scary as it is made to be and we must treat it with confidence and respect. There is no point fretting about a subject like Maths that is highly misunderstood. So much of Maths is a learner’s paradise and it is time we demystify the subject for now and forever! If you need help with that, get started with our app, Class Saathi: MCQ Revision App. It’s for students in Class 6-10, free with 25K+ practice questions!

5 Non-typical Learning Hacks to Engage Your Child Through the Holiday Season

Photo by Rahul Pandit from Pexels

It is that time of the year where everybody is anticipating long weekends and shorter workdays. Slowly but surely, buildings around the country are setting up lights and diyas to hint at the upcoming excitement. All renovation activities are accelerated and every morning, neighbours and relatives drop by with sweets and snacks. The whole country has been in the festival mode for more than a month and once Diwali is over, Christmas and New Year are around the corner to keep the celebrations going. While this is all fun and festive, it is also a dreaded time for parents who have to make sure their children have some amount of facetime in front of their books.

Want your children to learn while also having fun? Read on to find out our top tips to engage children with their learning resources through the long holiday season.


1. Fix a schedule –

Entrust your child with a firm and compulsory schedule. Make sure they spend a fixed amount of time in front of their books and learning resources based on their attention span. Keep the schedule brief – it is unfair to expect them to sit for longer than 5 hours when everybody else is emulating the festival season. For instance, your child can be encouraged to spend 2-3 hours revising and learning. It also helps if you encourage them to make their own plan of actions for the day.

2. Stock up on worksheets and question banks –

Worksheets and question banks are a sure shot way of engaging your child productively. If they find it difficult to sit and revise with all that’s going on around them, allow them to use this time to practise and test their knowledge.

3. Involve them in the festival prep work –

Most households in the country are doing DIY projects at home to make ornaments and decorations for the festival. This is time you can use to enlist your child’s imagination! It also helps children improve their focus, refine their fine motor skills and it also gives them an outlet to relax while also learning something new!

4. Give them a designated space to work out of-

This may be a fairly huge challenge since households get busy with tonnes of people and activities. What’s easier is to cement your child in a permanent festival mood if they are not encouraged to maintain their learning routine. Give them a designated space and request the other members of your house to not enter that area during their study time. 

5. Be flexible with what they’re learning –

It can be daunting for children to sit and study while everybody else is out there bringing in the festival season. It is not important that they sit and learn only their Maths-Science subjects. What’s important is that they have a routine that is not easily disturbed by festivals or celebrations. Allow them to pick their learning material on their own. For instance, if your child wants to learn about the history and origins of festivals in India, encourage them to do that too!


The idea is not to make sure your child is constantly studying. However, it is to instil in them a keen sense of routine that becomes so entrenched that they grow not to be distracted by the various stimulating activities that are constantly a part of life in India and everywhere else. Festivals are for fun and joy and children must experience that without having to compromise on their learning. It is also a time to show your children that festivals are also a lot of hard work along with a lot of fun.

5 Useful Tips to Study Smarter, Not Longer

Photo by Andrea Piacquadio from Pexels

Many students study for so many hours, but sometimes it doesn’t pay off as they expected. Is there any solution for this? The answer is “there is.” For decades, scientists and psychologists have been snooping on the top students and doing research on which study habits are most efficient.

Here are some tips you can apply for your future study plan.

1 . Test yourself

Photo by Startup Stock Photos from Pexels

Your teachers use quizzes and tests to check on your progress. But you don’t want to find it out at the same time as your teacher. Better to know sooner, so you have time to correct it. Check for yourself before your teachers do. Try to quiz yourself the way the teacher asks questions. Figure out what stuff you don’t quite understand before the test. And check your work for accuracy before you turn it in.

2. Mix it up

In many cases, it helps to mix up your self-studying. Don’t just focus on one thing. Drill yourself on different concepts. Psychologists call this interleaving.

Actually, your tests usually will have questions mixed up. More importantly, interleaving can help you learn better. If you practice one concept over and over, your attention decreases because you know what’s coming up next. Mix up your practice, and you now space the concepts apart. You can also see how concepts differ, form trends, or fit together in some other way.

Studies have shown that interleaving can help students with both strong and weak working memory. Working memory lets you remember where you are in an activity, such as following a recipe.

3. Don’t just reread the materials

One of the most common bad study skills that students have is reading their textbooks, worksheets, and notebooks over and over and over again. Too often, when students reread materials, it’s superficial. Rereading is like looking at the answer to a puzzle, rather than doing it yourself. It looks like it makes sense. But until you try it yourself, you don’t really know if you understand it. This is because you’re not processing it deeply or picking more out of it. It gives you the illusion that you know the material very well, when in fact there are gaps.

4. Use pictures

Photo by RF._.studio from Pexels

Making information visual is useful because it forms associations between bits of information. Images are much richer in information than language, and you must think about all the associations that go into generating an image. So, with images, you’re actually growing more connections as you learn. Images can encapsulate a lot of information in a very small amount of visual display.

Yet, that’s not to say that text is not important. The key concept here is known as “dual coding”, presenting information in written and visual formats. Consuming information in this way can boost learning.

5. Use examples

Abstract concepts can be hard to understand. It tends to be far easier to form a mental image if you have a concrete example of something.

For instance, sour foods usually taste that way because they contain acid. On its own, that concept might be hard to remember. But if you think about lemon or vinegar, it’s easier to understand and remember that acids and sour go together. And the examples might help you to identify other foods’ tastes as being due to acids.


With these tips, you can save a lot of time while studying and process the materials way more efficiently.

5 Tips to Achieve What You’ve Always Wanted

Are you someone who aspires to achieve things but finds it difficult to take any action? Most likely you are stuck in the overthinking cycle, where you are too cautious before taking a step ahead.

Thoughts are essential, but you also need action. Taking action isn’t easy, especially if external factors affect you more than your internal drive. Zig Ziglar rightly said, “You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great”. You may get nervous and feel like procrastinating. It is okay to feel that way and you cannot do much about it. But once you start acting, this feeling can automatically convert to that of adrenaline. For example, do you remember when you plan to go jogging early in the morning, but you just find it difficult to get out of bed? Once you are out of bed and running, you begin to feel the runner’s high. The same goes for any other action. The mood will follow the action.

So here are some tips to get you going:


1 . Deliver on your promises

Quite often we promise ourselves or those around us that we will do something. But over a period of time if we don’t see immediate results we get less enthusiastic. Don’t let that happen. Deliver on your promises in terms of the efforts you put in, irrespective of the final result.

2. Show up

The biggest indicator of a winning attitude is showing up no matter how you feel. This attitude should be a core value to you. For example, there might be days when you don’t feel like attending your regular classes. Do it anyhow. It may happen that you are not focused during the class. But make sure you write down the notes so that you can go back and study on your own.

3 . Put things into perspective

Most of the time overthinking makes you exaggerate things and circumstances in your mind. So instead of worrying about everything, categorize them based on whether they really matter to you in the long term. For example, if you score less in a school exam, don’t feel disheartened. Don’t give up just yet. Think from the long term perspective. If you were considering the next 5 years, would your scores matter more or your learning?

4. Stop waiting for perfection

Photo by Tara Winstead from Pexels

We grow up in a society where we worship perfection. It doesn’t have to be the best or nothing at all. Things are not black and white. So stop waiting for the day when you are perfect. Instead, start to get better at doing something while you’re doing it. The only thing that matters is how better you are today as compared to yesterday. For example, most of us fear solving past year papers because we are scared that we are not fully prepared for them. That day of perfection might never occur. That doesn’t mean you should give up on solving those papers. In fact, the learnings you get from those papers will help you in scoring better at the exams. The mistakes you commit will help you avoid them in the future.

5. Put a timer to work

Hard work is not bad, but it has to be time-bound. Without any timeline, you may end up spending more time on something where it was not required and less time on something where it was required. So plan your day in the morning or the previous night and try to stick to the plan as far as possible. Even if you can follow just 50% of it, you will still be better off than without a plan. If you find yourself losing focus or overthink while studying, write down your thoughts on a piece of paper, set aside 5-10 minutes just for thinking and think only during that time. This will allow your mind to fully focus on the task at hand and finish it within time.


Of course, you’ve got to know what you are doing and you’ve got to plan. But you’ve got to also do it. So get into action, and results will follow! What are you waiting for?

Science Isn’t Just For Nerds Anymore!

Science is part of every aspect of our lives, whether we realize it or not. However, no matter how hard our teachers try, our school textbooks simply are unsuccessful in developing our interest in it. Of course, as a part of the curriculum, we are bound to study science, but what if there was a way you could also enjoy studying it?

Here are some hacks that will make science more interesting to you.

1. Focus on the problem solving:

Science, just like other subjects, may seem boring if you focus only on the theory. The real beauty of science lies in its application. So, focus more on solving problems that can help you understand science better. For example, instead of just reading theory about projectile motion, try to solve a real-world problem that needs you to calculate the distance a ball will travel when thrown horizontally with a certain speed.

2. Find science camps and workshops:

Science camps are great ways for you to explore science while interacting with other children. These camps provide hands-on learning opportunities by involving you in extracurricular activities and experiments. During the pandemic, camps might not be conducted offline, but there are a lot of programs that take place virtually. Just look up ‘kids science camps’ on the internet or event listing pages and you will be able to find some good ones.

3. Follow science channels:

What better way to be interested in science than by getting to know some interesting facts or the latest developments in science? You can find plenty of online resources for free. Based on your interest you can choose to follow the technical ones or even the ones for the general public. You can check out some of the below links for reference:
– Veritasium on YouTube
– TedEd on YouTube

4. Form a study group:

Science is more fun when you have a group of like-minded people. If you have some friends that might be interested or want to get interested in science, form a small study group with them. You can make it fun by deciding a weekly topic and having a discussion on it on the weekends. Another way is to find some good science-related documentaries and watch them together. At the end of it, you can discuss the learnings you had or what fascinated you about it.
5. Take a hike:

Just go for a walk in nature with your friends or family. If you are interested in nature or biology it can provide a great way to know about topics such as habitats, geology and others by actually observing the same. It is a great way to have fun while learning science. You can also note down your observations in a journal. If you are on the creative side, you can also take some pictures or even draw them. Getting involved in this interactive form of learning will definitely help you in the long term.


Science is a subject that doesn’t always come easy, but it can be fun if you approach it in interesting ways as shared above. Are you using textbooks as your only source of study? What are some innovative ways you use while studying science? Let us know in the comments below.

A Power Nap Can Actually Boost Your Productivity

On a long stressful day, what’s a better way to recharge than to take a quick power nap? Despite its known benefits, most of us feel guilty about adopting this unique productivity tool. However, even famous people like Einstein, Winston Churchill, JFK, and Leonardo da Vinci were all fans of the afternoon brain shut down. So obviously it must not be a completely bad thing, right? In this article, we will cover the top benefits and some tips that can help you make the best out of this productivity practice.

Benefits of Power Napping:

1. Reduces sleepiness:

It might not be possible for all of us to get a continuous 8–9 hours of sleep every day. A lot of times even if we do manage to get that sleep we do not feel that refreshed in the morning. A quick power nap can help you overcome this energy downfall and rejuvenate you for the day ahead.

2. Improves memory and cognition:

Research shows that an afternoon nap can help you feel more rested and alert. Longer naps can also help in improving your memory and cognition. So for example, if you are thinking of really stretching your day just before exams, that might not be useful for you. When you feel really tired and drowsy during the afternoon, taking a short nap might benefit you more.

3. Regulates emotions:

Remember feeling cranky due to lack of sleep and having a lot of tasks at hand? A quick power nap does a better job in this situation rather than having coffee. Having coffee or anything that can instantly boost your energy might actually worsen your mood. So don’t hesitate to invest those 10–20 minutes at least in order to feel better.


Power Napping Tips:

1. Nap at the right time and for the right duration:

For most people, the duration of 10–20 minutes works the best, typically known as the power nap. The reasoning lies in the sleep cycle. The more you increase the duration the worse you will feel after waking up from the nap. This is because they may wake up from a deeper stage of sleep, which occurs later in the cycle, and feel fuzzy-headed. Also, try to take a nap in the early afternoon. Research shows a nap taken any time between 1:00 pm to 4:00 PM will coincide with one of the energy dips you feel throughout the day. Thus, it will not have a negative impact on your overall sleep cycle and you will maintain a fine balance of your sleep cycles.

2. You don’t need to fall asleep:

For a lot of people falling asleep doesn’t happen in the flip of a moment. It might take up to 14 minutes or even more to actually fall asleep. So don’t worry about it. What actually matters is that you close your eyes and let your body and mind relax. Also napping is a skill you will be able to develop over a period of time as and how you practice.

3. Find the right place:

The quality of sleep or nap also depends on how comfortable you are in the sleeping position. So it matters where you are sleeping and what your body posture is while sleeping. Choose a place that has minimal noise and more comfort. You need not always be in bed to take a nap. A comfortable chair or just lying down on the desk can do an equally good job.


For most people sleeping adequately and taking rest when required helps them feel better and improve their productivity. Instead of avoiding napping altogether, doing it with certain things in mind can help you get the most out of it.

Want to be an All-rounder? Start here.

A jack of all trades might be a master of none, but that’s not the only way to look at it. Evidence shows that a lot of successful people are actually good at more than one thing. So is this age-old belief actually valid and that too in today’s world? Let’s find out!

Unlike the older times, information is available to anyone who knows where to find it. What matters today is how you use that information to create something meaningful or solve a problem. For example, you don’t need to go through special training to know how to fix a computer. You can learn by watching a video on YouTube. The future is for the people who know how to find knowledge and apply it most effectively. If you do choose to narrow down your focus only on one thing, you will tend to lose out in the long term. An engineer by profession who gets an A throughout might not be that successful as an average person with a broader range of knowledge. He/she will have better exposure to opportunities and thus a better chance at winning. So how to become such an all-rounder?


1. Plan your day:

Photo by Burst from Pexels

Most of us are time-squeezed, feeling that we don’t have enough time for all the things we want to do. However, there are always some people who can manage to do it all. Do they have more time? No, but they know how to time-box their tasks. So instead of skipping those basketball sessions, plan them at a specified time. The rest of the time can be utilized for studies and daily activities.

2. Do what you enjoy:

In life, you cannot always foresee the future. So you might underestimate the importance of certain things that might not show immediate results. If you like art, music or sports, give the necessary time for it. Do not sacrifice them for scoring good marks in your exams. These activities are very important from the point of view of your overall development.

3. Learn from an application perspective:

Photo by Lukas from Pexels

You don’t need to undertake a Microsoft Excel course to know how to use spreadsheets. But you can easily learn a part of it, say if you look up how to make a line chart out of your test scores. This is what is known as application-based learning. For a lot of skills, you don’t need in-depth research to get good at them. Learning from an application perspective is good enough for expanding your skill sets.

4. Do not feel left behind:

A lot of parents train their kids from a very young age on specific skills like maths, piano, cricket etc. Of course, there are child prodigies who become a huge success. But being a prodigy is not the requirement to become successful in life. It is never too late for anyone to start doing what they want. Focus on being a better version of yourself every single day. Everyone’s journey is unique. So there is no need to compare yourself to others.

5. Just do it:

90% of the people say they want to do a lot of things but don’t know where to begin. The trick is to just start. Our body is a masterpiece of evolution. Once you start doing something, you’ll keep getting better at it. So for example, instead of worrying about whether to take up those dance classes or focus on studies, just start doing both. You might get tired or might find less time to do one thing, but eventually, you will learn to manage both.


To conclude, an all-rounder is simply someone who can do a variety of things well. All you need is consistency and a winning attitude. Do you believe in focussing on one thing or being an all-rounder? Do let us know your perspective in the comments below.

3 Super Simple Strategies To Boost Your Willpower

Photo created by wayhomestudio

Many times in a day we have to choose between things we want to do and things we should do. Do you also struggle with choosing between say watching your favourite TV show and revising that important chapter before the next class? You are not alone. We all have impulses that come in the way of our longer-term well-being and goals. Yet for some, it might seem easier to control themselves while for some it may seem a downward spiral. So what does it take to have strong willpower? Let’s find out in this article.


The dictionary meaning of willpower is the ability to control one’s own actions, emotions, or urges. However, it is much harder to explain realistically. In simple terms, our willpower instinct is the driving force that reminds us, resists us from temptations, and pushes us forward to do things we are supposed to do. It largely is a function of the prefrontal cortex part of our brain and is limited in its capacity. Additionally in the technology-driven and globalized world, our willpower gets constantly bombarded due to a huge number of choices, temptations, and distractions. So what is the way out? Let’s have a look at some strategies you can use on a daily basis to improve your willpower.

Strategy 1: Get adequate sleep

Research shows that sleep-deprived individuals are far more likely to give in to impulses. They also tend to focus less and are at a greater risk of making risky or questionable decisions. So for your physical health as well as exercising of greater willpower, make sure you get the right amount of sleep.


Strategy 2: Practice meditation and slow breathing

Science reveals people who meditate on a regular basis have increased neural connections between regions of the brain important for staying focused. One important aspect of meditation is also conscious breathing. The way to do this is to slow down your breath with shorter inhales and longer exhales. A typical cycle to have is four to six breaths per minute. Carrying forward this breathing practice in your day to day life will help you shift into a pause and plan mode. Thus you will have greater self control and better response in difficult situations.


Strategy 3: Reflect and forgive yourself

Studies show that being too harsh on ourselves doesn’t help much in the long term. It is better to reflect on our shortcomings, understand where exactly is the scope of improvement and keep a positive mindset while working on yourself. The more you believe you have control over your willpower, the better you will be able to exert it.


To conclude, improving willpower is all about finding the right strategies for yourself, being consistent with your good habits and sailing through tempting or boring situations with a positive mindset. We hope this article will help you move forward in the right direction. Do share your experiences with willpower in the comments below.

5 Easy and Great Tips To Boost Your Brain Power

The human brain is probably the most mysterious organ in our body. Did you know that contrary to popular belief human intelligence can be developed over a period of time through conscious training? So the next time you feel you are not smart enough to understand a particular subject, just remember to implement one of the tips we have covered for you in this article.


1. Mental stimulation:

Human intelligence is not determined at birth. It is largely dependent on the environment you are brought up in and the effort you put in. Simply speaking it will only develop as much as you stimulate your brain. The lesser load it has the lower will become its ability to do difficult functions. The higher the stimulation the better the synapses will fire thus making you more intelligent. A simple way to do so is to play number games such as kakuro or sudoku. You can easily get them on your phones free of charge and playing them even 2-3 times a week can prove very beneficial. You will start noticing the changes and feel much more confident especially in terms of your mathematical and logical aptitude.

2. Improve your diet:

Your brain is just like other organs and needs a sufficient supply of nutrients to keep it functioning and healthy. Your food intake should be rich in nutrients such as vitamins and healthy fats. You can achieve this by eating superfoods such as fish, nuts, and vitamin and antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables. Also, keep yourself hydrated especially during those marathon study sessions or even while you are attempting your exam papers. This is because our brain consists of 80% of water, and hence even a 2% dehydration can seriously impact its functioning ability.

3. Get the right amount of sleep:

The adverse impact of insufficient sleep on our productivity is very well experienced by most of us. Worrying about exams may lead to even further loss of sleep. Of course, it is difficult not to worry about the exams and trying hard not to worry might stress you out even more. So the perfect way out of this is to regulate your sleep cycle right from the beginning of your preparation. Once your body clock is set, you will find it much easier to avoid lack of sleep and also increase your productivity during your waking hours.

4. Physical exercise:

They say all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. It’s true. Physical exercise not only helps our body stay fit but also improves blood circulation thus uplifting our mood. So don’t think that the 30 minutes to 1 hour that you invest in physical activities is a waste of time. It is actually a disguised way of strengthening your brainpower even further. If you find it difficult to do a proper workout session try to at least go for a brisk walk at the start or end of each day. You may also try 5-10 minute stretching exercises to keep your body active on a daily basis.

5. Reduce your screen time:

In this fully digital world and especially during the lockdown, it is indeed very difficult to get off of our screens. Increased screen time not only impacts our eyes but also our mental health and productivity. This is because our mind does not really have to think a lot while consuming all the online content. On top of that, it is addictive by design. So start measuring and controlling your screen time and boost your brainpower.
