What is 1Room?1Room digitizes and delivers a country's national curriculum through tablets in one room with one generalist teacher. It even works in off-grid and offline environments, and cuts the cost to educate a student in half. We use a stack of emerging hardware and software solutions, localized content, and innovative pedagogy to create a flexible, individually-paced blended learning experience for a wide range of students.
