When we talk about school technology, the digital tools and systems used in classrooms to support teaching and learning. Also known as educational technology, it includes everything from smartboards to learning apps—and it’s changing how students in India study every day. It’s not just about having tablets in class. It’s about whether those tools actually help kids learn better, stay engaged, or catch up if they’re falling behind.
Many schools in India have jumped on the tech bandwagon, but not all of it sticks. You’ll find some schools using Google Classroom, a free platform for assigning work, giving feedback, and organizing lessons because it’s easy and cheap. Others are switching away from Google entirely—over privacy fears, data tracking, or just wanting more control. That’s why posts here look at why schools are leaving Google, what they’re replacing it with, and whether the alternatives actually work better.
Then there’s eLearning platforms, online systems designed to deliver lessons, quizzes, and progress tracking remotely. Some are built for big coaching centers. Others, like Duolingo, are free apps students use on their phones. But here’s the catch: just having an app doesn’t mean learning happens. Duolingo’s free, sure—but can you become fluent with it alone? Probably not. That’s why the posts on this page dig into real results: what tools help students actually pass NEET, crack JEE, or land coding jobs—and what’s just noise.
It’s not just about the tools. It’s about who’s using them, when, and why. A student in a rural school might use a phone app to learn English because there’s no teacher. A city kid might use Google Meet for tutoring. Both are using school technology—but the context changes everything. That’s why this collection covers everything from the cheapest digital tools to the most expensive smart classrooms. You’ll see how ICSE and CBSE schools are adopting tech differently. You’ll find out if coding classes pay off, or if vocational training gives better returns. You’ll even see how schools are choosing between AI tutors and human mentors.
There’s no one-size-fits-all fix in school technology. What works in Delhi might fail in Odisha. What helps a JEE topper might confuse a kid struggling with basic math. That’s why this page doesn’t push trends. It shows what’s real. What’s working. What’s not. And what you should actually care about when picking tools for learning—whether you’re a student, parent, or teacher.
Below, you’ll find real stories from Indian classrooms: the apps that stuck, the platforms that failed, the teachers who made tech work, and the students who learned despite the system. No fluff. No sales pitches. Just what matters.
Google Education Platform is a free suite of tools including Google Classroom, Docs, and Meet that schools use to teach and learn online. It helps teachers assign work, track progress, and connect with students - no cost required.
