DIGITAL CLASSROOMS The students are taught on smart tablets for a more futuristic digitized learning experience. The teachers use smart interactive whiteboards that are installed in every classroom. This helps learn with more colourful and vibrant interactive means as opposed to the traditional chalk and board method of learning. The whiteboards are connected to the internet and the teachers can use this to show students videos of certain topics and then explain it to them so the student can understand and visualise the process as the teacher explains.
Litera Valley Zee School facilitators are skilled and trained to use the IWB with professional methods. IWB provides a platform for the students and teachers to interact within the classroom and enhancing the acquired knowledge.
Facilitators provide a professional guidance to each student in the classroom to understand and use the IWB in their day to day environment.The emphasis is on making every classroom session interesting, interactive and useful for the students in every possible way.
Moving ahead with technology and staying on par with the pace of the racing world around, Litera Valley Zee School offers Tablet Based Learning opportunities for all the students right from Kindergarten till grade VIII.
Tablets are used as a tool to tap the inborn liking the children naturally have for latest gadgets and making the best use of this for introducing learning through tabs in classroom.
Latest and updated versions of Learning Apps are provided to the students based on their theme for the week in order to provide them with a 360-degree learning experience.
The computer science lab is equipped with the latest computers ergonomically set up and has the capacity to host over a hundred students at once, moreover, the round table formation of the desks and monitors encourages cross-learning from the peers. The customised computer curriculum from grades I-VIII are designed to prepare the children for this tech crazed world. Equipping them with skills most adults wish they learnt at a much younger age.
A comprehensive customized compilation of thoroughly planned Applications and Programming languages in Computer Science has been framed for students from Grades I to Grade VIII in order to provide the students with a complete knowledge bank of both the basic and advanced computing skills. This exercise done gives each and every student a complete understanding of designing and programming by the time they complete their high school.

Litera Valley Zee School, Hosur is one of the few schools in the World (perhaps the only one!), to offer Robotics as part of the curriculum right from Grade I. We introduced Robotics in Association with Lego, USA and have the proud distinction of introducing curricular tablet-based learning in South-India. This simply goes on to show once more, how much we value the practical hands-on learning experience. The children are trained and taken for various competitions where they can demonstrate their skills and talents. The robotics course also has a custom made curriculum which is as follows:
S.NO | CLASS | TOPIC |

6 | VI | AC AND DC CURRENT |
7 | VII | READY MADE AND SCRATCH |
8 | VIII | LEGO AND ARDINO |
Here, at Litera Valley Zee School, Hosur, we paused to ask ourselves this, "if technology has advanced so much in the last 100 years, why had the traditional method of education remained the same?" We tackled this situation with the help of the obvious, yet simple solution - Immersive Technologies(Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality & Mixed Reality). Each student is given a VR headset, Tablet so he or she can visualize concepts in 360degree, 3D, 4D and grasp them better and enhance their imagination in a more evolved manner than the way of traditional books may not.
