In this pioneering project, SpaandanB Austin has joined hands with D.Net (Dhaka, Bangladesh) and Ministry of Science and Information & Technology of Bangladesh Government to setup Smart Class Rooms (SCRs) at high schools all over Bangladesh. Smart Class Room embodies a new way of teaching students using audio visual aids. A SCR is equipped with a solar-powered 32" monitor connected to a laptop computer.
