Sutara Learning

About Chimple: Chimple is a product of Sutara Learning Foundation whose mission is to build a gamified, personalized and adaptive learning system that guides a child from absolutely no knowledge of the alphabet to a stage where the child can read to learn and perform basic arithmetic. Chimple aims to educate the children of the world using joyful mobile software that encourages self-driven learning. We envision children using the tablet as a lifelong friend on their journey of discovery. We believe that modern technology has a profound influence on learning that has yet to be utilised for learning by children. Chimple has implemented in-school programs in 35 government schools of Chamarajanagar, Karnataka, and 85,000 children across India have used 15 BMC schools in Mumbai and our at-home learning app. We are also conducting a year-long research evaluation across 35-40 schools in the Haryana/UP area in coordination with respected Education/Development sector organisations. Due to the potential for a huge scale-up of EdTech solutions, we are just beginning to make an impact, and our goal is to reach 1 million children across India in 3 years. Chimple is among the 5 Finalists in the competitive Global Learning XPRIZE, which challenges teams from around the world to develop open-source and scalable software that will enable children in developing countries to teach themselves basic reading, writing and arithmetic within 15 months. Chimple is a grantee of Central Square Foundation.
