Anilearn, an Augmented Reality (AR)-based mobile application, has the
potential to revolutionize the Indian educational system in rural areas. Given that 65.5
percent of the Indian population resides in rural areas and the literacy rate in these areas
is only 61.14 percent, there is a critical need to enhance the educational experience for
rural communities. Anilearn utilizes cutting-edge AR technology to create a dynamic
and interactive learning environment for pre-primary students. By using the app to scan
objects and offering interactive features and audiovisual assistance, Anilearn captures
the attention and interest of young learners and provides a distinctive learning
experience. This program can give all children, regardless of their location, equal
learning experiences through the power of technology. However, it is essential that
Anilearn is user-friendly, accessible, and aligned with the curriculum. Involving
teachers, parents, and local people in the development and implementation of Anilearn
can help adapt it to the unique needs and cultural setting of India’s rural areas. Anilearn
has the potential to empower young learners and open the door for a better future for
rural communities by making learning dynamic, engaging, and accessible.
