Sikkim schools are using AI to track how children learn. What data does it keep?

In 71 government schools in Sikkim’s Gangtok district, children in Classes 3, 4 and 5 now read aloud to a computer every school day . The software listens, notes the sounds they struggle with and the sums they get wrong, and feeds the information into a dashboard that tracks “the progress of every child on a real-time basis”. Sikkim’s Education Department has explained what this does for the children.
