Edulution – successful start in South Africa

EDULUTION - Logo

Edulution got off to a successful start in South Africa. In 2023, 28 learning centers have already been opened and over 8000 learners are using the learning software.

Edulution continues to achieve excellent results among learners. Learners who learn with the Edulution tablets perform significantly better than their peers in test results. This is particularly remarkable because Edulution is not active in privileged districts, but rather in remote areas or townships.

In addition, thanks to Edulution, formerly unemployed young people have found and continue to find work as coaches. The innovative technology also effectively involves teachers and helps them to acquire relevant ICT skills.

Further learning centers are to be added in 2024.
