At the golden jubilee celebration of the departments of adult and continuing education at the University of Madras, Mohan said, “We also shared the syllabus with companies in Chennai and asked them if it will be relevant for the way technology is emerging. We took their com ments and incorporated the changes they suggested.” Mohan said 25,000 schools in rural Tamil Nadu have smart classrooms with smart boards.
“When it comes to furniture, facilities, and computer labs, the state govt is investing not only in access and physical accessibility but also in tremendous improvements in quality,” he added.
