Google+ Hangout is powering the education of underprivileged children in Indian cities of Kolhapur (Maharashtra) and Kolkata (West Bengal), where two NGOs are using the power of the Internet and virtual classrooms to conduct classes in English and Mathematics.
Kolhapur-based organisation Helpers of Handicapped (HoH), is using the web to provide quality education to about 500 underprivileged children. Through Google Hangout, the HoH school has connected to a school run for slum children in Kolkata, and to another school for the underprivileged in Ahmednagar.
The teachers are quite excited about the prospects of remote education and the excitement of the students is also quite understandable.
Thank you +Google+
