Learntive is an education focused social venture. At Learntive we believe that students should not fall behind for lack of learning opportunity and thus not realize their full potential. Learntive leverages technology to inspire student learning.
Learntive produces high quality educational videos (DVDs & Online) for science subjects (curriculum) taught in schools and makes them available to students free of charge.

Students (especially in Government run schools) fall behind in learning because of:

  • Unplanned and frequent school closures (law and order, rains, floods, Taliban)
  • Absent teachers ( ~ 25% any given day)
  • Lack of teacher commitment (70% teachers only teach 15min per subject)
  • Low level of teacher competence
  • Families reluctant to send girls to private coaching centers
  • Private education is expense and out of reach of majority

The key "innovation" can be summed up in one word "LOCAL".

  • LOCAL Content = Videos/DVDs cover the local curriculum taught it schools. Student have to pass a Board exam at the end of the year, hence their interest.
  • LOCAL Language = Lectures are recorded in local language.
  • LOCAL Delivery = Vast majority (>90%) do not have access to Broadband connectivity. DVDs allow them to watch/learn while being offline.
Delivery to End Users (students) Learntive is working with local education boards (supervising enrollment of ~465,000 9th & 10th grade students). The DVDs will be made available to students right in their schools.

The Approach

  • Leverage technology to inspire student learning.
  • Produce & Distribute high quality educational videos (DVDs) for science subjects (curriculum) taught in schools (9th & 10th grade).
  • The DVDs are provided free of cost to all students.
  • Equal learning opportunity to ALL.

Earned Income
  • Learntive is passionately committed to its mission while realizing the importance of "earned income"
  • Learntive leverages Advertisement and Sponsorship to create "value" for it clients and generate "earned income" for itself
