Ever thought of investing in the stock market and wished you had a mentor who could guide you? ‘Finance’ as a subject seems intimidating and complicated to many. Moreover, the teaching methodology often leaves the learner confused, bored and uninterested. Through its revolutionary new OTT learning platform, MoneyFlix, a newest offering, is set to drive the digital revolution in financial education. MoneyFlix aims to solve this problem by disseminating information through a gambit of animated videos, Bollywood-style acted movies and infographics!
MoneyFlix excels in the information retention front due its weaving of information into stories. This makes the format entertaining and ensures that the learner truly immerses him/herself in the subject matter.
Features
- Subtitles: While the videos are narrated in English, Hindi or Hinglish, subtitles are available in English, Hindi and Telugu (with plans to add Gujarati and Tamil) to ensure that language doesn’t serve as a barrier to quality education.
- Voice Notes: This feature comes in handy during information-laden portions of the video. Voice notes are more convenient and quicker to make as compared to physically jotting the notes down. They are easier to revise from as well.
- Discourages multitasking: Multitasking may not always be a good thing, especially when you’re trying to learn such pertinent concepts. With this feature, users can avoid getting distracted by pausing the video when it detects a change in tabs.
- Categorization: The videos are categorized in 3 broad categories: Personal Finance, Investment and Saving. These categories are home to videos ranging across various topics such as investing, trading, mutual funds, IPOs, equities, taxation and insurance.
- Infographics: These are perfect for those of us who are purely visual learners. Furthermore, some of these infographics are aimed towards children (12 and above) in order to feed their interests about simple, everyday-life finance topics!
