Pengala launches new e-learning solution

BANGALORE, INDIA: Pengala Learning Pvt. Ltd., a pioneer in developing learning technology for India, on Wednesday launched a new learning system that helps students learn better and faster.

The Pengala Learning System improves learning by combining the best elements of classroom and self-study, delivered in a way that students study at their own pace and schedule, said a press release.

The new system enables students to get access to great teachers, full video lectures, engagement, tutor interactivity, assessments, personalized feedback, and peer learning, the release added.

The solution is designed to work on any PC at home or in a shared computer lab with or without broadband Internet access.

The product takes a platform approach that helps partners securely distribute courseware and scale their business while making it easy for students to learn.

Will Poole, founder and co-chairman, Pengala, said “Pengala’s software and web services are uniquely designed for India. Pengala uses a hybrid architecture that allows students to study and learn while online or offline, even with rich media content like full motion video lectures and animations.”

Navin Thangiah, CEO, Pengala said, “When education companies offer self-study, students stress the need for classroom guidance. When they offer classroom courses, students stress the need for self-study. With Pengala, our partners offer a third choice, which combines the best of both worlds in one solution. While courses for key exams like IITJEE, AIEEE, Medical, and boards are available today, other partners will soon be launching courses in vocational training and higher education.”
