The School Education Department of Tamilnadu has partnered with Microsoft to expand the Technology Education and Learning Support (TEALS) program to more schools.
The project was started on a pilot-basis in 14 schools of three districts -- 10 government schools, two government-aided schools and two private schools.
Now, the project is in the process of being expanded to 100 schools.
The teachers have been trained to teach the students HTML, C++, Python, game development and AI.
The programme now aims to empower the teachers to train the students.
The curriculum is designed by Microsoft and they hold online classes for the teachers.
