New Delhi : Aakash Educational Services Ltd., the leading coaching institute in India has unleashed innovative ways of using technology to assist students in learning. It has now conceptualised the Aakash iTutor lab for the first time ever in select cities in India. These labs, named as Virtual Classroom Centre (VCC), will help disseminate the iTutor program which is a tablet based educational product combining the best of classroom learning and self study. Students will now be able to access these tablets through the iTutor labs for just Rs.25 per hour.

This would especially benefit those students who cannot afford the cost of the tablets. iTutor lab enables the student to use the course material in the tablets, sitting in the lab. These labs are present in cities like Kota, Kanpur, Aurangabad, Bikaner etc. Technology has taken the generation ‘Y’ in its stride. Considering this, Aakash’s introduction of the VCC is a perfect move towards better education. The concept brings every student to one platform and provides opportunity for self-study using technology at an extremely reasonable rate. It is specifically designed for students aiming for the various Medical and Engineering entrance exams as well as for Foundation level examinations such as NTSE, Olympiads etc. Besides this, because it is a lab setting, there are a number of students sitting together where they can discuss and benefit from group study sessions. The labs enable peer learning and are cost effective.

Talking about the objective behind such an innovation, the  Director of Aakash Educational Services Ltd., Mr. Aakash Chaudhary said, “Aakash iTutor Labs or VCC have been rightly introduced keeping in mind the overwhelming response for the iTutor Tablets and to further the availability and affordability of the iTutor program. A lot of students couldn’t reap the benefit of the technology as it was not within their means. This is an effort to reach maximum students as we believe that every student must have equal access to quality education. VCC will revolutionise the way education is delivered in this segment.”
