Manipal Technologies Limited launches MiClass -a simplified Video Learning Platform to help Teachers

MANIPAL, India - July 20, 2020 - PRLog -- Education has been one of those industries that had to transform itself overnight because of the onslaught of Covid-19. In India, the pandemic has disrupted the education system across both primary and higher education and has unleashed a quick transition from classrooms to computers and mobiles.

However, with the initial rush of transitioning to virtual classrooms now settled down, institutions are now thinking of the longer term.

Manipal Technologies Limited (MTL), India's largest security printing, digital and technology firm, has developed an educational solution "MiClass" [http://miclasslearning.com] for Primary Schools and Professional Learning. The platform allows schools, colleges and coaching institutes for delivering recorded lectures, and enable faculties to conduct subjective assessments of the students.

Being able to complete their education remotely, even under a low internet or offline mode is the USP of the solution. More than 2,50,000 students from various schools in Kenya and professional institutes in India are using the platform. The platform has also witnessed a sharp adoption by institutions in India, that have faced challenges with a high learning curve and imbalance of bandwidth at the students' end.

According to Guruprasad Kamath, Vice President of Digital Solutions at MTL, "MiClass was built considering the need of the schools, professional colleges and coaching institutes. With this solution, institutes can allow their faculties to record and upload lectures as per the syllabus for their students and conduct both objective and subjective tests remotely. Students can seamlessly connect to the lectures from the comfort of their home using any of the internet-enabled devices. Students can digitally attend the lectures, revisit the lectures conducted in the past, and interact with the faculties to clear their doubts. Students can type their answers or upload the videos for faculties to assess the subjects. The platform is easy and simple to use and keeps the core focus on Learning and Teaching. Our attempt is to make life easy for teachers."

As Abhijit Swar, Senior Product Manager of MiClass said, "The two key differentiators of MiClass are – simplicity and security. Availability of asynchronous content ensures that students do not face bandwidth challenges in taking their classes.  The platform also provides a secure way of sharing videos which ensures that videos cannot be downloaded or copied. It is an economical method of continuing your classes online".

MiClass is currently available as a web-responsive platform and will soon be available as a smartphone application available on Android and iOS as well.
