Education Research

At Prayoga Institute of Education Research, rigorous, data-driven research and experiential learning models are shaping scalable solutions for the Indian education ecosystem.

Rigorous Research Design: Design and execution of large-scale, longitudinal experimental studies in real classrooms.
Learning Models and Curriculum Innovation: Development of research-backed learning frameworks tested in diverse school contexts.
Measurement, Assessment, and Evaluation Systems: Creation of structured tools to measure conceptual understanding, engagement, and experiential learning.
Field Research Infrastructure: Enabling deep, sustained engagement with schools and teachers, ensuring research implementation at scale.
Data and Evidence Generation: Generation of granular datasets and insights on how Indian children learn across diverse contexts.
Knowledge and Research Dissemination: Translation of research findings into frameworks, tools, and resources for the education ecosystem.

Education Research Dimensions

Prayoga's Education Research conducts intensive and rigorous research to transform education and enable innovation into scalable, data-driven solutions for the Indian education ecosystem. It examines the role of experiential learning as a pedagogy on the competencies of learners, developing robust and field-tested resources to enable inquiry-based learning. Ongoing social impact programmes incorporate a research structure to evaluate the impact of experiential learning on the development of capabilities — generating granular datasets and insights on how Indian children learn across diverse contexts.

Our research is rigorous and data-driven, providing valuable insights and developing implementable solutions with open-source courseware, materials, and adaptable learning resources. We focus on exploring fundamental questions in education and developing solutions that, while applicable broadly, specifically address the challenges of the Indian education context.

Academic Partners

Is Maths really harder for girls or is that just something we’ve been told?

Prayoga’s education research team studied 2,023 students from government and rural schools across 35 districts to understand how children actually perform in mathematics. The findings were clear: gender does not determine mathematical ability. Girls performed on par with and in many areas slightly better than boys across key mathematical skills.
