The document discusses digitization in education and its current state and challenges. It notes that while only 5% of education is currently digital, compared to 25% across other industries, digitization can integrate technology into curriculum, teaching, and school administration. This includes tools for distance learning, online exams, and automation of administrative tasks. Challenges to digitization include lack of infrastructure, digital skills, and planning. The document proposes a strategy including proper planning, training, and first implementing school management systems before moving to learning management. It also introduces the education platform Veda, which provides a single cohesive platform to digitize school operations and facilitate online learning.
