In powerless Bihar village, a school by innovation and Skype


In an under-construction school building in Chamanpura village of Bihar’s Gopalganj district, children are learning algebra, chemistry, Newton’s laws of motion. There’s no teacher in the classroom, no blackboard. The teacher is hundreds of miles away, and he is teaching via Skype. In this very unsual school, teachers mark their attendance using a biometric fingerprinter, and students log their attendance in a computer.

The school is even more unusual because Chamanpura has no electricity yet. The computers are powered by two large generators. In an undeveloped corner of a state that has long been synonymous with underdevelopment, is unfolding a story of remarkable enterprise and innovation — in several ways, a microcosm of the turnaround of Bihar itself.

The hero of the story is 36-year-old Chandrakant Singh, who founded Chaitanya Gurukul Public School to “provide world-class, technology-enabled education” to the children of Chamanpura, the village in which he was born, and where he completed primary school by the light of a kerosene lamp.
