Assam's "Shiksha Setu Axom" project has transformed Assam's educational landscape by making learning accessible to everyone. It captures real-time, geofenced attendance of teachers as well as students with the component of individual as well as group attendance. 4.9 million users use the app for attendance, such as students, teachers, and support staff. This AI-based attendance eliminates proxy attendance and ghost students, ensures timely teacher attendance, monitors prolonged student absence, and also predicts potential dropouts and re-engages students. Samagra Shiksha, Assam, has introduced the Shiksha Setu app to establish a platform for real-time monitoring and tailored interventions and aims to improve the quality of life for students, teachers, and support staff, stated a press release.
