Lessons that feel like virtual reality
Digital Elimu turns any classroom screen into an immersive lesson space, where content moves, builds and responds as the teacher teaches.
Works offlineAny projector or screenLessons by approved publishers
What it does
A complete lesson, on one screen
Teachers open a lesson and present it. Diagrams build step by step, tools move as they would in the hand, and every lesson works without internet.
Immersive lessons
Content appears in depth and motion, so learners watch ideas take shape instead of reading static slides.
Interactive tools
On-screen instruments the teacher can pick up and use live, exactly as the class would in real life.
Works offline
Download lessons once and teach anywhere. No data bundles, no buffering in front of the class.
Local Sharing
One computer shares its lessons with others nearby over a hotspot. One download serves the whole school.
Lessons by publishers
Approved publishers create their own lessons, publish them and teach with them. New lessons reach every teacher under What's New.
Licensed and protected
Each copy is activated with its own licence code, and lessons only open inside Digital Elimu.
Hands-on, on screen
Instruments the class can see from the back row
The teacher drags, rotates and measures with real-looking tools on the big screen. Every learner sees each step clearly.
- Move, rotate and measure live
- Draw and annotate on top of any lesson
- Clear and repeat as many times as needed
A lab without the lab
Practical work, even where there is no equipment
Apparatus appears on screen and responds as the teacher uses it, so a practical can be shown in any classroom.
- No breakages, no consumables
- Safe to demonstrate step by step
- Voice notes and photos built into lessons

About
Built by an educator, for the classroom
Digital Elimu was created by Justus Mwanthi, a private Mathematics and Statistics tutor. After years of explaining ideas on a board, he wanted learners to see them happen: shapes that build in front of them, tools that move as they would in the hand, and lessons that hold attention from the first minute to the last.
The result is a desktop app that turns a projector or classroom screen into an immersive lesson space. It was designed for real classrooms: computers that are not always online, schools that share one internet connection, and teachers who need a lesson to open instantly and run without fuss.
Lessons are created by publishers that Digital Elimu approves. Publishers build their lessons in the Digital Elimu Content app, teach with them and share them with every licensed teacher through the online catalogue. Lessons work only inside Digital Elimu, which protects the work of everyone who creates them.

Licences for teachers and schools
Every copy of Digital Elimu is activated with its own reference code. A licence lets you use the app and every lesson in the catalogue for the period stated when you buy it.
How to get one
- Send us a licence request using the contact form, choosing Licence request. Tell us whether it is for one teacher or for a school, and how many computers.
- We reply with the price and how to pay.
- Once payment is confirmed, we send your reference code together with a licence certificate.
- Enter the code in Digital Elimu. Activation takes a few seconds and needs internet only once.
Good to know
- Your reference code is for you only. Keep it private.
- When a licence expires, the app keeps working for a short grace period so you can renew without interruption.
- Schools can buy several licences at once and share lessons between their computers with Local Sharing.

Only to activate your licence the first time and to download new lessons. After that, every lesson you have downloaded opens and runs completely offline.
How do I activate my licence?

What is Local Sharing?
Local Sharing lets one computer share its downloaded lessons with other licensed Digital Elimu computers nearby, over a hotspot or the same network, without internet. One computer downloads; the rest copy from it.
