A Short-note on Off-Campus Teaching and Learning Tools and Technologies
Dear All,
I hope, everyone is happy, and in good health.
Due to the Corona Virus Disease, we are all staying home and discharging our duties from home. One of my professional colleagues asked me to help him in setting up online classes. Most of the universities and colleges have already implemented Moodle, an e-learning platform.
What I find, using the following free technologies together, effective online teaching and learning can be started and knowledge can be delivered to students and learners.
- Teaching with making short videos using YouTube channels
- Live sessions at YouTube and Facebook
- Moodle and Google Drive for collecting assignments
- Government-funded digital reading resources (NPTEL, SWAYAM etc.)for reference.
- National Digital Library(NDL) for all open access, free reading resources
- Spoken Tutorials
- TutorialsPoints for subject-wise notes and e-books
- DOAJ and DOAB for open access e-journals and e-books
- Other DRM free books for reading and references
- Apart from the above all other accessible print and digital resources
- Personal websites, blogs, and other social and professional networks
This is not the standard process of conducting remote teaching and learning but an effective note on creating an environment with easily available resource and tools.
With this, I invite you to take part in this forum to complete what is left.
Stay Safe and Healthy
Thank You.
