★ Content curated by an expert team including former IIT Professors.
★ Questions from the past 20 years GATE CS/IT question papers.
★ Grouped and organised by topics relevant for the GATE exam.
★ Concepts for each topic explained succinctly for easy understanding.
★ Step-wise interactive method of practicing solutions for each problem.
★ Concept-wise feedback to understand areas of strength and weakness.

Each subject in the GATE-CS syllabus is broken down into topics – which represent a key concept within the subject. TheTA gives a succinct introduction to the key concept, presents a number of practice problems – each of which reflects a specific way the concept is applied in solving a problem that could appear in the exam, and follows this with a short test.

TheTA addresses both sides of the learning equation. On one hand, TheTA is an intelligent tutor which has been programmed to impart individualized training based on established pedagogical models, much like a very good teacher teaching one student at a time! On the other hand, TheTA has been equipped with content that is just right for you!

TheTA demystifies the problem by breaking down the problem into steps, and helps tackle it in a structured manner. The student works out the problem using pen and paper, and reports the result of the step, based on which TheTA provides corrective inputs and explanations, or progresses to the next step. Multiple solution pathways are built in, wherever possible, enabling the student to take the lead in walking the maze from problem statement to solution. Working with TheTA will reinforce the mathematical thinking required to break down a problem into its parts, a necessary skill for most engineering jobs!

The student’s response at every step reflects his / her mastery of the specific skills related to that step, and therefore provide useful information about the student’s learning style, ability, strengths and weaknesses. TheTA is equipped with an advanced analytics engine which analyses all such responses, to present very meaningful and actionable feedback.

Don’t be misled by the TheTA’s small size. It encapsulates all content, so connectivity is required only to download the app (onetime event), and to upload analytics ( once in a while). This means that it is available anywhere, anytime- on the bus commuting to college, or during a free class.
