R V Educational Consortium and R.V.College of Engineering in association

-------------------------------------------A brief note about the workshop
----------------------------------------------------
The use of ICT is increasingly becoming necessary for universal access to
education for all. While
several agencies are trying to develop the infrastructure, not much effort
is being made in providing
guidance, content creation, and empowering the teachers. We (at
gnowledge.org lab of HBCSE)
have been giving workshops to teachers in proper use of ICT without
neglecting the traditional
modes of class room practices, and also train the teachers in use and abuse
of computers and
communication technology. We also link it to the general objectives and
philosophy set in NCF
2005 in the context of ICT use in the class room and empowering teachers.
As a part of the workshop we will be also arranging a CD for all
participants at a cost of Rs.100/-,
which contains all the software used for the workshop. All the software is
licensed for use in any
number of installations within the state and can be distributed free of
charge or for a nominal
amount to all teachers, students, schools and colleges provided they are
distributed with the same
set of conditions.
The workshop will introduce the main activities in the Sugar Platform (
http://sugarlabs.org), as well
as the special suit of applications present in the Gcompris (the latter is
part of the Gnome desktop
environment of GNU/Linux). The philosophy of constructivism and
constructionism in the context
of studio based learning will be introduced. The activities address language
learning, mathematics,
music, animation, turtle graphics (basic computing), presentation, recording
(audio, video), art
(painting and sketching), talking, mind/concept mapping etc. All the
activities support
collaboration. The computer records all transactions helping the teacher to
know the achievements
of children. Some of the topics in the workshop pertain to capacity building
among teachers,
collaborative construction of teaching/learning sequences, lesson planning
etc.
