Instructions for Enrolling in the workshop Participating Remote Centers |
Introduction
We have conducted 5 two-weeks ISTE workshops on "Effective teaching/learning of Computer Programming, Database Management Systems, Thermodynamics in Mechanical Engineering" and "Basic Electronics". These workshops were attended cumulatively by over 4500 participating teachers across the country, at 77 remote centers, through distance mode using the AVIEW software developed by Amrita University, on the internet.
The participating teachers attended live lectures, given by IIT faculty, at a remote center close to their own college. Tutorial and lab sessions were conducted in the same centers. Each center had a course Coordinator, who supervised the conduct of tutorials and Labs. All the lectures and tutorial sessions have been recorded, and the final edited audio-visual contents, along with other course material will be released under open source. These contents can be freely used later, by all teachers and students.
We are now organizing another 2-week workshop on Heat Transfer from 29th November - 10th December, 2011. This will include the delivery of live lectures through AVIEW mechanism of interaction with participants, and the local conduct of tutorials and labs.
