Virtual Schooling
Today is the era of Internet, where students seek information on websites, in data banks and conduct their own analysis to make their own conclusions.
Global village for the third millennium helps to strengthen the four mainstays of education that are:
1. Learning to know
2. Learning to do
3. Learning to be
4. Learning to live together
It is vital that education be improved in order to instill self-esteem and self-confidence in children and young people. Openness to others, respect and co-operation at all levels from local to global. Virtual schooling allows individual an opportunity to engage in critical thinking activities of the environment of their own choice, for example dancing, singing or drawing. With large advancement of information available online, individuals who are parts of virtual school have opportunity to integrate other means of technology into their knowledge production, which includes global awareness, computer literacy, self-directed learning, online communication, collaboration and so on. This helps to make the individuals more employable. As our honorable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi said, “you do not only need an electricity pole to Bring light to a village but that true enlightment will come from shaping values, spirit and promoting good education.”
Virtual schooling can help, not only in promoting academics, but also co curricular skill development. Thanks to virtual classroom, students can learn to play a variety of instruments like tabla and piano. They can also learn to draw, sketch and paint. They can also learn dancing, and singing.
There are several countries where the concept of virtual schooling is being implemented. The African Virtual School, Africa, helps students to revise for their exams using quizzes and videos. The Korean Air And Correspondence High School gives a chance to the students from remote areas to do their correspondence. Turkey, Australia and USA, all have successful virtual classrooms. Even in India, Classteacher learning systems are providing a ground for creating virtual classrooms.

What is EduPosse?
EduPosse is a mobile led, education centric, secure, Social learning platform for connecting parents, teachers and students and increasing and improving communication amongst them. It provides a teacher the power to communicate with her students and their parents in a simple, secure and effective manner. It provides a parent ways and means to become a part of his child's digital life. And to the student it provides a comfortable and enjoyable environment to explore new ways of learning, interacting with his peers and at the same time, share and learn from his parents and teachers.
While the children have been adopting digital lives very early and at an ever-increasing rate, the parent does not have any participation at all. The platform allows a parent and the teacher to form a team to maximize the child's learning potential taking advantage of digital content and other mechanisms available. Teachers, students and parents can store and share all forms of digital content be it blogs, links, pictures, video, documents, presentations, and much more. There are also special tools and apps that integrate and blend into the workflow of schools and teachers, allowing them to have an enhanced communication with their students and parents at the same time.
