India Today
NCERT has introduced a digital early learning platform for young children. It includes artificial intelligence assistants and play-based activities for foundational learning.
The National Council of Educational Research and Training has launched an Artificial Intelligence powered e Magic Box application to support the learning of children aged three to eight years.
The platform has been designed not only for children but also for parents and teachers who guide early learning at home and in classrooms.
The application provides educational content along with interactive assistance through intelligent digital companions.
Officials described the initiative as an effort to make foundational learning accessible, engaging and responsive to everyday questions raised by caregivers.
The platform encourages adults to actively participate in a child’s learning journey rather than relying only on textbooks, promoting conversation-based and activity-based development.
The e Magic Box app is a digital early learning ecosystem combining stories, songs, activities and interactive guidance. It is supported by three artificial intelligence-powered bots that respond instantly to user questions.
