Dell initiates Aarambh on Digital India mission

Bengaluru, Jun 6 (UNI) Personal Computer maker Dell India today
launched a pan India initiative to spearhead the use of personal
computer for education.
The initiative called "Aarambh" aimed at exposing students to
interactive methods of learning in their formative years to enable
them have a well rounded growth.
Dell in a statement here said through Aarambh, Dell would
engage with students, teachers and parents - in a series of
activities meant to build their confidence and familiarity with
using the PC. The programme aimed to enable both parents and
teachers to actively aid in the educational development of the
child, while using a PC and create an encompassing ecosystem and
supportive background for the child.
The year-long project aims to reach 1 million students and
100,000 teachers across 5,000 schools and 200,000 parents in 75
cities across the country. In a larger context, PC adoption could
enable the nurturing of digital citizens who would serve as the
building blocks for a rapidly developing Digital India.
Reiterating that the current household PC penetration in India
has stagnated at anywhere between 9-10 per cent - a number that
needs grass root attention; Dell Aarambh aspired to represent the
use of PC learning to unlock potential for young students. More
importantly, it aimed to establish that parents and teachers, who
were key influencers in a child’s formative years, could aid their
overall growth by participating in the adoption of PC technology for
learning, the statement added.
Speaking at the launch of Aarambh, P. Krishnakumar, Vice
President, Consumer and Small Business Dell India said, ''Through
Aarambh, Dell is leading the cause of accelerating PC adoption in a
country where today’s students will become tomorrow’s workforce.
Arming them with new-age skills, enhanced learning and the power of
technology, we want to help mold young minds so they are able to
find a firm footing in a Digital India.
