Abstract

The integration of smart classrooms into the educational system represents a significant advancement, aiming to enhance learning through digital tools and interactive technologies. However, the effectiveness of these smart classrooms varies greatly depending on regional contexts within India. This study contrasts the challenges faced by Jharkhand, a state with relatively lower economic development and infrastructure, with those experienced by more developed Indian states. Key challenges include infrastructure limitations, financial constraints, and disparities in teacher training and technical support. While developed states benefit from stable power supplies, high-speed internet, and robust professional development programs, Jharkhand struggles with erratic electricity, poor connectivity, and insufficient resources for both technology and teacher training. This paper highlights the challenges requires targeted interventions and a strategic approach to ensure equitable access and effective use of smart classroom technologies across different regions.
