Mobile Learning
More than 3 billion people – the majority of which live in rural areas – have no access to the internet. In a world where access to information and other services is becoming more dependent on the internet, organizations and governments find it difficult to reach rural, disconnected communities.
Our mobile learning platform provides mass communication solutions that can instantly reach across distance, language, and literacy barriers to delivering life-enhancing, and in some cases, life-saving information targeted to vulnerable populations in emerging markets – an organization can conduct training for farmers without physically being present, a mother can receive maternal health information from a local clinic; a policy-maker can study the supply chain and efficacy of vaccinations; urban planners can monitor water usage and distribution to vulnerable populations in emerging markets.
We use a fusion of mobile tools including Interactive Voice Response (IVR) to reach communities on the other side of the digital divide, often with low levels of literacy and without smartphones. The target audience does not need to read or write, speak English, own a smartphone, or download an application.
Voice Polls
This feature enables conducting voice-based mobile phone polls. Questions are recorded and sent out in bulk to target audiences in the form of a normal phone call.
Users respond to questions by either pressing numbers on the phone keypad or with voice answers that are recorded and used for later analysis. You can create polls of multiple-choice or true/false questions.
Analytics and Reports
The platform provides an analytics module that generates dynamic statistics and reports. The system tracks the learning process of each learner, provides reports, grading, and certification where applicable.
Once a learner has achieved the required percentage of competency by answering at least 95 percent of the questions right, the system will send a message of successful course completion and retire him/her from the course.
Recorded Questions
Learners can leave recorded questions on the system and receive feedback from course instructors.
Once instructors have responded to a question, the system sends out a text notification to the learner. They can listen to the response by “beeping” the system number.
