Mindspark
Mindspark is an adaptive-learning program (ITS) built by Educational Initiatives (EI). It is a cloud-based application that can run on computers, tablets, mobile phones and allows users to connect to Mindspark servers via a web browser.〔http://www.indiainfoline.com/article/news/mindspark-innovative-computer-based-self-learning-programme-for-maths-5551245931_1.html〕 It is currently available in Gujarati, Hindi and English languages. It is majorly online, though there are schools that exercise the option of offline-Mindspark due to recurrent loading problems and slow internet connections. Mindspark is getting used by children across India, UAE and USA.〔http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/ahmedabad/Indian-Mindspark-to-help-US-students-learn-maths/articleshow/7984418.cms〕 Besides schools, Mindspark is also available for individuals as part of Mindspark Retail.
==History==
Following the success of their original product, ASSET, EI decided to expand their educational expertise in building an online learning tool. ASSET team members used to analyze student data, develop questions and conducted student interviews. This effort led to the creation of a huge educational database, which could be used to make an intelligent tutoring system.〔http://www.ei-india.com/mindspark/〕
With this idea, the development of Mindspark started in 2009. During these years experts from different parts of the country pitched in to share pedagogical techniques and develop content. Bangalore, Mumbai and Ahmedabad were the major hubs of product development. Mindspark in its early years was sold to progressive and elite private schools. Later, Mindspark services were extended to Delhi slums as part of Mindspark Centers Project.〔http://www.centralsquarefoundation.org/blog/mindspark-learning-centres-blending-technology-with-tradition-to-remedy-learning-gaps〕 A solution developed in Gujarati has been under implementation in government-run schools.
