This concept has been implemented by a teacher in Mumbai. She is PoojaPrashantSankhe, who uses Amazon’s device – Alexa as a tool to get children more interactive. She has placed the device inside a mannequin that is usually used in cloth stores in India. The mannequin acts like a person and every time a child asks a question, the mannequin responds, in other words, Alexa responds. This actually gives the kid a feeling that they are talking to a real person. For example, the kids ask how many states are there in India and get the right answer. They even do math sums and ask Alexa if they are right. Furthermore, asking certain advance questions such as species of a bird or animal is also helping children.
