About the DigiLab
The DigiLab is a solution created by 17000 ft Foundation specifically for Ladakh, which brings the power of digital technology to improve learning, even in areas which are remote, inaccessible and truly off-grid. The DigiLab Project assumes neither the presence of uninterrupted electricity, mobile connectivity nor existing infrastructure, and brings together all required components in an offline, but connected system, delivering customized and personalized content through a local internet to students, while also enabling the teachers and administrators to assess and monitor performance periodically through a last mile connectivity app. The DigiLab has been set up in nearly 200 Govt. schools of Ladakh and aids the teacher’s traditional face-to-face delivery through highly visual and interactive content and provides an individualized learning platform for each student.
