This was stated by minister for Communication and Information Tecnology, Mr. Kapil Sibal while launching the 'pilot' of Texas Instruments' (TI) 3-D Digital Light Processing (DLP) Learning Solution at Queen Mary's School located at Tis Hazari in Delhi. This is The first ever 'pilot' implementation of TI's 3-D DLP technology.

This pilot project is a completely new system of education in Indian schools. 3-D is known to help students in retention of content particularly for mathematics and science subjects such as physics, biology, and is expected to make a deep impact on the teaching as well as learning methods currently practised in the country. Under the systemTop of Form the school to have at least one period for 3-D learning per week. The 3-D content is tailor-made for Grades 6 to 12. The solution has content on Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. The teacher utilizes the 3-D content to explain the subject in a more lucid manner with interactivity built into the content and teaching methodology. This highly enhances the learning and retention process in the students. The teachers will be trained to use this solution. It takes just a couple of hours for IT-savvy teachers to start using the content confidently in the classroom.
