Our Mission

Prayoga envisions becoming a
Globally Unique Trans-disciplinary Education Research Institution.

Why Education Research?
In India, education research has received inadequate focus, resulting in limited advancements in teaching-learning methods and practices thereby underscoring the cruciality of education research.
Specific, data-backed solutions that provide implementable experimental designs are essential to drive changes, foresee outcomes, assess effectiveness, and ensure a paradigm shift towards evolving better education practices.
We aim to bridge the gap between education practice and education policy, implementing learning intervensions intended to improve the quality of education in the country.
Prayoga’s programs amalgamate education research and social impact for nation-building, catalyzing tangible and significant advancements in teaching and learning.
These resources and data-driven solutions will contribute to the global knowledge on education and will be made open-source to education stakeholders.
Scientific Research at Prayoga
The Prayoga Institute of Education Research seamlessly integrates educational research with scientific inquiry, fostering a dynamic environment where these domains mutually enrich one another.
At the heart of this synergy is the dedicated Scientific Research Team, which plays a pivotal role by contributing innovative ideas, content, and methodologies to enhance science education. Their work not only advances teaching practices but also introduces students to research-based learning, cultivating critical thinking and analytical skills.
Actively engaged in both fundamental and applied research, the team addresses industrial challenges and drives disruptive innovations.
By merging educational activities with rigorous scientific exploration, the Scientific Research Team empowers students to tackle real-world problems and equips them with the tools for impactful research, shaping the next generation of thinkers and innovators.
