Fast growing demand fueled by demographics

The CyberSmart Digital Learning Platform delivers up-to-date learning and teaching resources to the vast majority of schools that have no electricity in sub-Saharan Africa and other developing regions. A game-changing solution, this all-in-one mobile device offers the world’s most advanced learning technologies, quality multimedia content and teacher training.

Easy to use as a mobile phone

Simple to use. Simpler to maintain. Our innovative solar, low power platform integrates connectivity with an Android computer and a bright, projected interactive display to dramatically broaden the delivery of connectivity and scope of value-added telcom services to an enormous and previously unreachable user base.

 Tackling existing technology failures

Most Sub-Saharan Africa primary schools lack electricity. In the handful of schools where conventional computer labs and lap-top programs are used, too few devices serve large numbers of students. Continual power outages prohibit reliable use. Ongoing and costly maintenance issues impede timely repairs. The result? The existing technology sits unused.

Sustainable, scalable innovation. Grass-roots developed

Our strategy is based on insights from our 9-year grassroots collaboration with teachers across rural Senegal. We learned that it’s simply impossible to adapt existing commercially available technologies. The reality is that these existing technologies were not designed for use in developing countries. That’s why we created the CyberSmart Digital Learning Platform, eliminating costly structural requirements.

A proven game-changer

Our USAID Proof-of-Concept demonstrated in 9 rural Senegalese schools how the CyberSmart Digital Learning Platform effectively delivers previously unavailable instructional materials to directly support classroom learning.  Teachers gain precious classroom instructional time because they no longer have to copy lessons onto the blackboard.
