  Zhang Jiawan is a small village in southern China.

  (A) Due to this, these children end up not getting an education.
  (B) It is equipped with computers, blackboards, books, VCDs with animated lessons, toys, games, and more.
  (C) Mobile schools use advanced technology to teach students through virtual reality headsets and interactive whiteboards.
  (D) Karnataka has been using mobile schools in poor neighborhoods of the state capital, Bengaluru, since the early 2000s.
  (E) In a country like India, with many geographical barriers, enormous population, and widespread poverty, getting every kid to school is not easy.
  Karnataka, a large state in southwestern India, has a problem: nearly two million children across the state do not attend school. All villages in the state have a school, but many families live in the forest areas far from any village. 1.---- Fortunately, state officials have thought up a way to bring education to these kids: mobile schools.
p.15
  The idea of a mobile school is not a new one. In fact, countries such as Kenya, Russia, and Bangladesh already have them. 2.---- But in 2018, in response to the shocking number of kids in the countryside who weren’t in school, the government decided to expand the mobile school system state-wide.
  So what exactly does a mobile classroom in Karnataka look like? A mobile classroom begins with an old bus. The bus is remodeled* to look very similar to a normal classroom on the inside. 3.---- On the outside, it still looks like a normal bus, and can be driven around to different villages to provide classes.
  As these mobile schools begin to roll out*, expectations of their benefits are high. Currently, about 20% of Karnatakans cannot read or write, but the state hopes to reduce that number to zero. Moreover, every child in India has the right to a free education, so the government sees it as its responsibility to make sure all children have access to one.
  4.---- But mobile schools will surely help to bring school to more of those kids.

  In early 2020, much of the world went into lockdown* due to a new coronavirus*. Schools in almost every country closed down. Teachers adjusted by giving their lessons online using apps like Zoom. But what happened to the millions of students around the world with limited or no Internet access? In fact, a number of organizations have responded to this problem with innovative solutions.
  Kiwix, a Swiss* organization, partnered with Internet companies to provide important resources to those in need. Thanks to the program, people in ten countries in the Middle East and Africa can access online libraries and important websites such as Wikipedia for free from their cellphones. In Africa, another organization, Teach for Uganda*, sends text messages containing lessons and homework to parents, helping parents homeschool their kids without Internet access. Other organizations, such as Kolibri and African Storybook, provide content that people are able to download when they do have a connection, then can use later offline.
  COVID-19* has proven to be one of the greatest challenges our world has faced in modern times. Teachers and students have adapted by relying heavily on the Internet. Even for students without reliable Internet access, organizations have found ways to bring education to them.

  Hey everyone! I just have to share something super cool with you all. This summer, I visited a treehouse classroom in a small village, and it was incredible! Imagine having your classroom up high in the trees, surrounded by nature.
  In the treehouse, we learned about how this design helps kids in remote areas receive an education. The classroom is built up high to prevent damage from flooding and mudslides. It’s also designed to be open and airy, which improves ventilation and keeps the space bright with natural light. We sat on comfy cushions and used durable, outdoor-friendly materials for our lessons. The best part? The view was breathtaking! We could see the whole village from up there. This treehouse isn’t just a classroom; it’s a place where learning feels like an adventure.
  It’s amazing to see how creative people can be when it comes to education. I felt so inspired by that treehouse classroom and how it makes learning both enjoyable and practical. What’s the most unique learning space you’ve ever seen?
