About the Book

Welcome to the exciting world of DigiSpark AI, our comprehensive computer series tailored for learners from classes 1 to 8. Based on feedback from schoolgoers and teachers, we have designed these books to be activity-based. A complete page at the end of each chapter is dedicated to activities relevant to the chapter. In some cases, additional pages have been included. This focus on activities enables students to gain hands-on experience and become confident users of the concepts.

Drawing inspiration from the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, we have seamlessly integrated key NEP elements and 21st-century skills into practical activities throughout our chapters. The chapters are also aligned with the six phases of logical understanding outlined in the latest National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 2023, fostering cognitive abilities in Perception, Inference, Comparison, Postulation, Non-Apprehension, and Verbal Testimony. Our books are a treasure trove of relevant topics and engaging features that make learning an enjoyable journey.
