Hi Atanu,

Although I am late replying, I would like to know more about your idea and see I can fit in. I wanted to do this but didn’t know how. I have 2 yrs of software experience and NOT based out of Pune. I would like to know if I can make any contribution – but I am constrained till February. So let me know what all can I do – even remotely.

Thanks.

Have been waiting for this announcement ever since we met.

This problem is too big for one company to solve so would love to see 100s of startups going after this space.

Is there any plan to seed/empower 100s of startups to solve this huge/critical education problem?

Any open source or creative content twist there as well? Though I am biased there.

Good luck.

hi atanu

got to know about your venture thru my brother who has also sent you mrs.rajalaxmi’s resume. i wasnt very keen initially to be part of anything related to education or school as i felt i m a non entity for such things. but after 2 children, motherhood has shown me a new face of teaching, learning and gaining…
i have this ambition to start a great school ( not necessarily heavily priced) which best suits students taht most schools do not want:-((. slow learners or students who want to know things thru exploration or other methods of learning than the usual rote ..
well the reason i have this entry on ur blog is to understand your venture better and see if i could be a partner in your thought process and possibly contribute something from hyderabad where i m stationed presently.
i know you have so many mails in the line to answer and reply. still would wait for your reply on this.

thank you

Hi,
I landed on this blog while taking a session for the students. Providential perhaps! The concept and the attitute towards it have made me write this response.Have about 22 years of experience in Projects/ Administration and last 10 years with a University. Am inclined to consider the proposal if the needs match.

Hi Atanu,
My name is Swapna and I am a Special Educator. As an Educator for students with special needs, I am expected to assess the abilities of the students and their areas of need, provide them with structured and modified instruction, monitor their progress and modify or enhance the scope of learning.

I had worked in India for 5 years with children with special needs at various levels and then came to the US to enhance my knowledge in the field of learning disabilities. It is a quite fascinating field and I enjoy my work. However, most often I felt the need to apply the same strategies and skills in the field of general education field to enhance the learning of the students in general. I have a strong desire to make a valuable contribution to the field of disabilities and to the field of education as a whole. My husband, Ramdhan Yadav, had introduced me to your blog which, I sometimes visit.
I really like the depth with which you try to address the current issues in our education system.
I am trying to contribute my bit by blogging in some information which could be useful for prospective and new educators. Getting involved in a project would be a wonderful opportunity for me to contribute to the field of education. I am very enthusiastic to know about your project and would love to be a part of it. I would be very glad if the project can utilize my skills in any form.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Swapna Bolleboina

Atanu, I don’t know if you could use my services, but in case you are planning to use GNU/GPL software or Linux based stuff, I might help as a remote and occasional consultant from Austin, Texas. My idea is to be a part of the whole that makes a difference, and to contribute in my own way.
