A total of 76,723 students and 8,372 teachers utilised various features of G-Suite using their dedicated login IDs.
Through G-Suite, teachers can interact directly with students, and the students can upload their class activities for evaluation by the teachers concerned on the platform itself.
G-Suite has been provided free of cost to the State. The safety and privacy of 47 lakh students and 1.7 lakh teachers has been ensured through dedicated and unique logins. No external person will be able to enter any classroom, says Mr. Sadath.
Arrangements have been made for enabling the login for 10 lakh students on the platform in September.
