On the launch, Puneet Goyal Director at iDream Education shared, “ We have been working exclusively on ICT and digital education for government schools for the past few years with a vision to empower and handhold our rural students with digital learning for skills and growth.
Therefore as soon as the lockdown was enforced by the Coronavirus Pandemic, we started working on the iDream Learning App to ensure that best of digital learning content can reach every student in our rural households in these times. An easy to use, free mobile app, which the local language students and their parents can use to access digital content in their mother tongue and as per their state boards.”
Along with local languages, iDream Education has also made available digital content in English medium for CBSE students and announced that the app shall be free for english medium students also due to lockdown enforced by the Coronavirus Pandemic. CBSE Digital Content for 1st to 12th all classes and all subjects shall be a great value add for students to continue learning at homes.
App Coverage: Classes, Content & Languages
The app offers enjoyable digital content for all classes from 1st to 12th and in all major subjects including Math, EVS, Science, Social Sciences, Commerce, Computers and English.
It currently has digital content in English medium and major local languages including hindi, marathi, gujarati, tamil, telugu, kannada and bengali aligned as per all major state boards.

All of this content is in their mother tongue and has been aligned to their state boards for best of learning continuation. “ shared, Rohit Prakash, the other co-founder at iDream Education.
Outreach to Parents, Schools and the Social Sector
There is no doubt that the iDream Learning App fulfills a very timely and pressing need for our students, parents and the social sector in school education.
The Army in Kashmir has been one of the first users of the iDream Learning App, where the app is now being circulated to the parents and students of all the Army Goodwill Schools across kashmir, so that the students can continue their education from their homes in these difficult times.
Immediately after launch, many teacher networks, schools, national NGOs and CSR organizations have come together and partnered with iDream Education to take the mobile application to their target beneficiaries across different states in India.
The app has been given media coverages by Inventiva, Better India, Swarnim Times and many highly reputed media platforms.
It is indeed a worthy initiative and can align our rural communities and their children to stay connected with education and growth in these times of social distancing.
