Anyone building for students when not being around students is actually not building for students.

Running the second pilot of the learning challenge now! Some context: children in India from underserved backgrounds don’t usually have agency to make any choices of their own. At school they are told exactly what to do and at home - there isn’t much support either. So an entire group of children end up going through their entire school life without any exposure to what it means to make choices or even follow what they are interested in. What the learning challenge does is simple- we realised there are 2 essential things that stop a child from creating- resources and motivation. So we solve for exactly that. We give each child access to a mentor so that they have the support system to build and we provide them a small fund so that they can have access to resources they need to be able to create. We choose highly ambitious students who need a chance to succeed. They have full agency over their project and what they want to build! I’ll share weekly updates here :)
