As part of Robi’s Corporate Responsibility (CR) initiative, Robi has extended its support towards 10 Minute School – an online platform that offers comprehensive study solutions anywhere, anytime “free of cost” for JSC, SSC and HSC students, university admission seekers, and university students.
www.10minuteschool.com offers admission guidance and model test options for all leading public and private universities in Bangladesh, thus reducing dependency on expensive
university admission coaching for all students seeking tertiary level education. Online courses, tutorials and quizzes on subjects under the national curriculum for JSC, SSC and HSC students are available for learning and practicing after school.
Technological innovation, digital inclusion, and affordable internet connectivity are continuously reshaping the way we learn. These changes have resulted in the emergence of online education as a supplement to the conventional learning. Some education expert even considers this to be a worthy alternative to the conventional method. The online mode of learning presents a number of advantages. It connects students from any part of the world, saves time & money and provides opportunities for self-learning and development at the students’ own pace. 10 Minute School offers all these benefits by making education a fun experience accessible to all.
Robi believes that 10 Minute School can change the way we approach education by taking it to the fingertips of students regardless of their location, socio-economic background or proximity to educational institutions. Hence, launching of the platform is a very significant milestone in the company’s journey as a leading promoter of digital lifestyle in the country.
