Highlights
With a strong focus on delivering excellence in education, Sarvshixiit Pvt Ltd aims to revolutionize the way individuals engage with learning, offering a range of courses and resources designed to inspire and educate students of all backgrounds.
Sarvshixiit Pvt Ltd, in collaboration with IIT Kanpur, has revolutionized education by establishing over 150 RAA laboratories in Delhi and Uttarakhand, and facilitating comprehensive capacity-building workshops under the Rashtriya Aavishkar Abhiyan (RAA) program. These efforts have reached 162 schools offline and over 3800 schools online, training 324 teachers offline and more than 22,000 teachers online. This extensive initiative has significantly enhanced the educational experience for students and teachers alike, promoting excellence in science, mathematics, and technology across diverse backgrounds.
The Sarvshixiit team has successfully established STEM Labs, Tinkering Labs, and similar facilities in the challenging terrains of the country, particularly in the Himalayan regions. In states like Jammu and Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh, where providing equitable quality education is already a significant challenge due to the difficult geography, Sarvshixiit has demonstrated its expertise by not only setting up these labs but also ensuring their successful implementation.
Community outreach programs are a cornerstone of our implementation strategy, driven by the belief that “Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it.” A notable example is the Aghaaz Labs (Astrophysics Labs), where cluster learning programs are organized by the Sarvshixiit team with unwavering support from the concerned education departments. These labs are always welcoming to community members, offering opportunities to learn, inquire, and experience under the guidance of specially appointed mentors dedicated to ensuring the program's successful implementation.
The quote by Confucius, "I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand," highlights the significance of experiential learning and underscores the limitations of passive absorption of information. Embracing the "learning by doing" approach, we ensure that children gain firsthand experience of theoretical concepts. One shining example of this endeavor is our night sessions. Utilizing state-of-the-art telescopes provided to Astrophysics Labs in 376 schools across Jammu and Kashmir, students observe the night sky and celestial objects within our solar system, transforming abstract lessons into tangible experiences.
The AI Lab at ITITI School Dehradun, established by IIT Kanpur, is truly one of its kind, serving students from numerous scheduled tribes across five states of India. This initiative provided a unique experience for the Sarvshixiit team, as we were tasked with introducing AI to a new and diverse group of students. This endeavor was not only different but also highly rewarding. The children's excitement and eagerness to participate and learn were palpable. Their enthusiastic engagement and keen interest in AI and machine learning highlighted the vast potential for growth and innovation within these communities. The experience underscored the importance of providing access to cutting-edge technology and education to underserved populations, paving the way for a more inclusive and diverse future in the field of AI.

The workshop will help me in my professional career. I will try to import the skills, knowledge and attitudes that got from here to my students and teachers.
Jena Karlis
Teacher, Arunchal Pradesh
Now I can tell the students how mathematics is used in our daily life exercise and in other fields (subjects). Example- how matrices, probabilities we learn in school are used in the communication sector and so on. For me, the tour is very good and guide teams are also very nice, frankly, friendly and supportive. Sessions of all professors and scholars were also very interesting and motivated.
