1. Enhancing education quality through mobile learning for teachers

2. Value Proposition
• We address poor quality education perpetuated by teachers‘ limited
command over content.
• We satisfy the need for concept clarity to enhance quality education
for students in Pakistan and beyond.
• We create lessons tailored to learning needs of rural teachers and
deliver via mobile smart phone.
• Lessons are particularly helpful for newly hired teachers.
• We provide unlimited access to localized content via mobile

3. The Problem
• Teachers in Pakistan have critical gaps in subject knowledge.
• Access to information resources is extremely limited.
• School enrollment is on the rise, but quality education is still lacking.

4. The Game
Changer
• Teachers have ‘on –tap’ access to teaching tools & resource
• Mobile access to take pictures and provide instant reporting to DIL head
teachers
• Cost share of mobile phone reduces theft and loss of mobile. (Mobile smart phone equity
stake Rs. 2,000 ($20 USD)
• Other family members and students have easy access to the resource
• Open Edu resource for Free - teaching tools for public use.
• DIL provides direct feed back to teachers individually.

5. Teachers who understand subject matter are
better equipped to effectively teach those
concepts to their students.
