Takes ~1 minuteChoose Your CDC / NEB Textbook
Start by selecting the textbook you teach from our national catalog of 80+ verified curricula (Grades 1–12).

- Select multiple grades or subjects at once using the updated multi-select filters.
- If your school uses a specialized or local curriculum, upload your own PDF in one click.
Pro Tip:When you select a book, all official units and CDC learning competencies load automatically into your workspace.
Read Actual PDF Content & CDC Outcomes
Access the built-in textbook viewer to read original pages and cross-reference syllabus competencies.
- Toggle between 'Actual PDF Content' to see scanned textbook pages and 'Unit Outcomes' for CDC competencies.
- Open full-screen view or download the complete PDF to your tablet or mobile device.
- Review Bloom's cognitive taxonomy levels associated with each chapter's competencies.
Pro Tip:Cross-referencing the actual textbook ensures your AI-generated materials perfectly match what students have in front of them.
Select the Right Tool from 16 AI Generators

Configure Your Classroom Parameters
Tailor the output so the pedagogical plan reflects the reality of your specific room and teaching style.
- Language: Choose Nepali (B.S. Bikram Sambat dates) or English (A.D. Gregorian dates) depending on your medium.
- Class Duration: Set period length (40, 45, or 60 min) and number of single/double periods.
- Classroom Resources: Tick only what your school truly has (e.g. whiteboard, textbook, low-cost local items, science lab).
- Teaching Approach: Focus on hands-on student activity, group collaboration, or inquiry-based methods.
Pro Tip:Ticking only what you have prevents the AI from suggesting activities that require equipment your school does not possess.
Generate in Seconds with Offline Resilience
Our high-speed pedagogical engine crafts standard materials strictly aligned with CDC guidelines.
- Generates comprehensive lesson plans with specific objectives, student activities, evaluation, and homework.
- Question papers automatically compute cognitive weightages (Knowledge, Understanding, Application, Higher Ability).
- Offline Tolerance: If electricity drops or mobile data cuts out while generating, nothing is lost! The task completes on the server and waits at its unique URL.
Pro Tip:Each generated document receives its own permalink. Bookmark it or share it with departmental colleagues instantly.
Review, Edit, and Export to Word / PDF
Review the output, tweak any details in the built-in editor, and export official school documents.
- In-browser editing allows you to customize questions, replace examples, or add local contextual nuances.
- One-Click Word (.docx) Export: Formatted cleanly with proper tables, headers, and school letterhead ready to print.
- Watermark-Free Presentation: Clean, official output ready for the head teacher's signature and administrative submission.
Pro Tip:You can print directly from your phone or school computer using the standard Print button.
Built for Nepali Classroom Realities
What if my internet or power cuts off while generating?
Nothing is lost. The AI finishes generating on our servers regardless of your device's connection. When your internet returns, simply reopen your link or check 'My Library'.
Are student names or personal records required?
Never. Shikshak enforces a strict zero-pupil-data policy. We never ask for, store, or process student names, photos, or identifying markers. It is strictly pedagogical planning for educators.
How do credits and rollover work?
Each generation consumes 1 credit. Free tier starts with 3 credits. Pro rolls over 50% of unused credits. Teams features 100% Full Rollover, meaning your credits never expire as long as your plan is active.
