The Mission
Get kids to grade-level in reading and math.
How It Works
Imagine Worldwide equips schools with 1) durable tablets and headphones, 2) solar power and charging systems, and 3) software that provides adaptive, personalized learning. Kids use tablets 20-40 minutes/day at their own pace and in their own way.
The Dream
Governments deliver personalized, tablet-based learning across Africa.
Why We're In
Many have hoped that education technology could make up for poor functioning schools, but very few solutions have panned out. This one is working. Imagine’s kids achieved a 50% jump in grade-level attainment. Compounding annual effects and adaptive software are expected to drive that number higher. They’ve focused on government delivery from the outset, already reaching >300,000 kids in Malawi alone. So far, government schools have proven able to use and maintain tablets, and the ongoing cost—~$3 per kid/year—is affordable even for strapped governments.
