 I hope it was a useful course, I hope you got exposed to many new things, possibly conceptually not very difficult, but the skills getting used to new things, I think these are something quite different. When I started using these new technologies, I found that the students actually know more than you, the technology, that is the first thing that we have to be ready. You are telling me how to do, I think that is first thing that we should remove, first thing because we know the kids can play computer game better than us. This is almost like playing games and figuring out how to play, there is a game, how did the child find out what press, what button to press, how do they do that? Because the children, the next generation people are lot more amenable to this technology, they actually can understand this lot better. In fact, Professor Geithunde was talking about Spokane tutorial, I will tell a small incident. So, Spokane tutorial is a self-learning method to teach IT, C programming, Java programming, late take and all kinds of things. If you just type Spokane tutorial on any search engine like Google, you will get it. So, it is very popular one, we have been offering workshops using that. In fact, these workshops can be offered in your schools also, we dub them into all 22 Indian languages also, the Spokane part. So, we had given this to a college in Maharashtra and then the person, a college teacher from Maharashtra asked me, we need advanced level tutorials in Sylab, Sylab is a computing, numerical computing software. So, I said, well, we have taught the basic thing, why don't you ask the students to learn from, you know, Google, do a Google search, you will get all the PDF file documents you can see. Then the teacher wrote to me saying that, the students want only video tutorials, they don't want to see PDF files. Because if it is video tutorial, they can download it on their mobile phone, they can listen to it while travelling. So, what I am saying is, if you look at the new generation, the children are actually attuned to this, they actually like this. So, it is actually easy to teach that, easy to, as a matter of fact, it is more difficult for us. And there is no harm, if a child, if somebody loves all that you have to do is, maybe I am making a mistake, please come and explain how to do it better, that's it, then they become your friends. That is one thing that we need to do. The other interesting thing in this is, yesterday we had a session called Ask a Question, 175th event of Ask a Question, that means 175 weeks are over. So, this program is one in which our electrical engineering faculty members have been answering questions that students post from various parts of the country, all engineering colleges. Once a week, one hour a week, our people come online through a software called Aview and answer the questions and the students come, connect from various parts of the country, they come, they ask questions and our people answer. So, it is amazing because when we were small, we were told what a stupid question, you think you are smart asking me this question. So, once we started doing this, it is questions, questions, questions, only questions, because everything is there, all the data are there, all the material, learning material, everything is there and in fact, our motto is every question matters, every question matters, you must ask questions. So, I am just telling some of the things that, you know, that, you know, we, our perception that may have to, we may have to change or I had difficulty in when I started doing these things. But fortunately, I found that this methodology allows you to become a better teacher because you have the opportunity to practice, keep improving the way you speak and then record yourself and the people do not see what all you did before that. For example, we do not know when we see a movie, we do not know how many takes they had taken to get the final picture. When you say, hey, this is a great movie. So, we have the opportunity, all of us to become very good teachers. In other words, a person who is normally a great teacher in front of the students live need not necessarily be the best teacher in this mode because in this mode, there is, actually, I should put it the other way around. I should say, even a person who is not very good in speaking extempore can become a great teacher, can, using the method that Dr. Sharma suggested, you record it, you listen to it and say, I am making this mistake. So, the students are laughing, go and improve it, modify it, keep practicing. And so, and the benefit is, instead of 50 people, you are going to teach 50,000 people if it comes out well. So, I think there is a potential in this for even an ordinary teacher because of sheer perseverance and hard work to become a very good teacher because there is nothing life. Life thing may be there at the most to answer questions, but I think that is okay. And this methodology here is here to stay because that is the only way we are going to reach out to so many because we have a big shortage of teachers and there is no way we are going to be able to train teachers what they call brick and mortar model. Through that model to develop to train good teachers is not going to, it is going to be very difficult for us. If you want to become as good as the West, if you want to provide a similar kind of potential, for example, in a place like US, you go to any state university, you are guaranteed of some minimal standard of education. We are unable to do that in India. And this I am talking about universities. If you go to schools, it is going to be even worse. So, the only way we can leapfrog is to use this methodology. And all that I would like to say is it is not rocket science. It is not at all rocket science. Everybody can become good. And it is just the, if you are motivated, if you are interested, you can certainly find out how to do it given that you could interact with the people who are here. I mean, of course, our staff members are extremely friendly. You would have found out. And one of the reasons is some of us have taken into a point that the culture in our projects has to be quite different from a typical Sarkari department. So, for example, in my office, the other day, I called my phone, office phone. And there was this casual worker, of course. He answered the phone. And there is, of course, a standing instruction that anybody who answers our phone has to tell hello, I am so and so. This is TCS building. Can I help you? And I have told them if anybody doesn't do that, there is going to be a punishment, because we are a service department. Service department means we are actual people. So, the first thing that I, I mean, so they can, they cannot say hello. What is this? You should say, can I help you? That, so, if you look at the culture in our, these projects, this extension projects or outreach projects of this MOOC course, our T10KT, teacher, 10,000 teacher program in that, that activity, I don't know, you are probably exposed to that. That is also run by Professor Fartek. And Mukta is here. She is the one who is the manager of that project. You look at Spokane tutorial project, you look at Fosse project, E Yantra. All these projects have been created with the outreach in mind and with the culture of a service department, that our people will be very friendly, ready to help you if you have any questions. And because that's how our people have been groomed. In fact, you would have noticed that the PI of this project is Professor Fartek. Professor Fartek isn't here for two days, but nothing stopped. Professor Gaithand did it. If Professor Gaithand were not there, even if he were not there, somebody else would have done it. So, that kind of thing is from top to bottom, you talk to any of our staff members, they would be ready to help. So, in this new paradigm, there are some differences, there are some benefits and there is some learning to happen. And I'm glad to say that we are fortunate, we are happy to be endowed with financial assistance by the National Mission on Education through ICT to establish all these resources. In fact, I would like to also acknowledge the first director of this mission, Mr. N. K. Sinha, who thought of all of these and who gave us funding and then encouragement. And this missionary approach has really helped. And we are talking about the work that we did for five years. We started in 2009, I think May we got the first branch of money. So, it's more than five years. So, we are working and it is continuing because the government has realized that this is an important activity. It should be sustained. As a matter of fact, in the first phase of this mission, it was available only to the Department of Higher Education, that is colleges. In fact, many people had asked us why Akash is not being used in schools. But it came out of Department of Higher Education activity in MEI city. But now, there is an effort to make this, in fact, this MOOC itself is an initiative in that direction, that here is something successful at the higher level. It should be made available to the schools. As a matter of fact, schools are a lot more important because if you don't produce children of the right kind, if the initial conditions are not good, then any amount of work that you would do later may not really help. So, we have, I think, all the resources, we have the right kind of trained people here who are ready to help. And we are already committed to doing this MOOC support, use the resources we have for the entire MOOC activity, including the schools. And there are also other players like the Tatas and Tis and so on, who want to come in a big way to bring this kind of methodology to schools. So, the future looks, I would say, reasonably bright because one can always say, look, how, you know, what is happening to the education system? I mean, and so on and so forth. And here seems to be a potential weapon to work against it, to destroy whatever shortcomings that we have. So, with that, I would like to conclude. I want to congratulate all of you for having participated in this. And you are all our alums because you did a certificate course here. And we would like to be in touch with you. And then, do not hesitate to get in touch with our staff members for anything that is not clear. Thank you. Goodbye. Now, a feedback session. Okay, so the floor is open. From the last three days, I just forgot all the thoughts, sir. So, given a choice to use Facebook or WhatsApp or social networking sites for 20 hours, or I am given a chance to study a particular chapter for even half an hour, what would I choose? Sir, surely the social networking sites or even the gaming, because I have an interest in it, because the textbook or any activities, any other activity other than that will be not that much interesting for me. So, definitely I will go there. What I learned here that if at any point of time I am able to make my MOOC so interesting and so tempting to the student that he will leave everything outside. Okay, no, no, no. I want to do MOOC. And it is far more interesting. So, then I think, sir, that will be the true homage to what we are doing here. If I can make my MOOC so that all the students, if more students pay more attention to MOOC, instead of doing anything else, then maybe our efforts will come a long way. This is what I would like to share. Most respected professors, all my colleagues and friends here. This has been a good exposure and it is my privilege to be a part of the team. This is a new program, what we are exposed to, and I think it is useful for all kinds of children. When we say all kinds of children, children are staying in the remote areas where they are devoid of good schools and good teachers, as well as the students who are staying in the remote areas, where they have a schooling proper, but they may not be liking the schools, they may not be liking the teacher. For such children also it can be good. Now, presently the children are spending time after school for tuitions and other things. So, in such cases, those children can go to MOOC, refer to that lessons, and if it is more interesting, they can go through that and then be perfect with that. So, it can be helpful for all kinds of children, but for a school education we need to have a little more modifications to make it more interesting for the child. So, it can be more interactive at any time of the day. Like, if a child wants to answer that time, it should be available. If a child wants to interact at that time, it should be available. So, if we can make little more changes, it can be very much helpful. That's what I think. Thank you everybody. Thank you for all the team members. I've been very, very helpful at all times. In all our words, thank you to everybody. I have already shared some of my personal views regarding this. First of all, this is a great initiative, collaboration between NCRT and IITV. I think we are the first batch of school teachers getting incorporated in this new platform. So, my experience being into this program is that we expected a little bit of more exposure regarding this particular platform on the very first day. Actually, what is this and how is this? Because it's a general experience of us all that we are stuck somewhere in between, what is this about? So, I think in the future workshops like this, if this thing is taken into consideration, it will be a great, I think it will be an improvement in the running of the courses. Secondly, three days, two tight scheduled and yes, the back of team is really has to be thanked. In fact, yesterday also after dinner, we stayed back in the lab till 11.30. Unfortunately, he is not here. So, he was staying with us there in the lab. So, it's a great help and definitely the motivations and the encouragement we have got from Eumentus is awesome. And on the whole, it was a great experience and I would like to extend this in future also so that we can be a part of the team whose designed courses are run in the schools, not only in the medium of instruction of English in Hindi and other vernacular mediums also. Thank you. So, we all know that our previous situation is not very good, especially in the government schools. So, let's think about it. Like, in June, I went to Karkam in NRE in June, I made a few videos there, I mean, I gave a presentation there. I liked it because it was ours. But how did you feel about it? You will see and you will tell it. I felt that I might have gone too crazy in IIT. Like, I might have gone too crazy in IIT. I mean, I met the people I met. First of all, I had a chance to meet Mr. Asif Brahma in IIT. He also went crazy from 8am till 9-10am in the morning. He himself made us crazy. And yesterday, I felt it. He said, I was tired till 10am. I ran away from home. But some people went crazy till 11.30pm. So, the second thing I saw here is that IIT is in Kanpur. And IIT is in Bombay. So, I can understand. You said that everyone is there. So, I agree. We will also try. We are also crazy in this way. So that we can get some children. Thank you. Thank you one and all. So, I have one suggestion for that. Because students like more attractive things. No doubt whatever contents providing videos, etc. But whatever the page layout, if you make that default, what you are getting, at least the toolbar, that icons are coming. So, instead of icons, if you add a text in the form of a colored text, so that may become more attractive to their pages. So, again, the students can attract it more to see that things. That is the only thing. Thank you, sir. Let me thank all of you for the nice cooperation at any time of the day. Secondly, one thing I wanted to add is the main problem I'm feeling in the school education is the practical part in the science, specifically in science. Most of the time, whether it's 12, 30, 9, 30, 11, practical part is being ignored over there. And that is what we are understanding. The conceptualization of the child is lacking over there. Can we interpret something or add something in over this platform so that some simulated experiment, some where there is no material over there, at least child can understand that, from that simulated experiment of particular subject. If that can be added, that will be a more thing. Thank you. Good afternoon. One and all project here. So, first of all, I would like to thank Kendra Jalesangatan. KBS has selected me, one of the participants to attend this three-day workshop on MOOC. So, before this, I was attended five-day training, training to prepare the e-content on the Moodle platform. So, in last year, I was attended this, say, Moodle course, RIE Mysore. So, after taking the training, we have conducted two courses for the cool teachers, TGTs and PGTs in our institute, journal Institute of Education and Training, in the last month. So, what I experienced there, most of the teachers are expressed there best, because definitely this e-content, it helps the quite lot to the students to interact and as well as it gives a more effective teaching, on the teaching learning and definitely it affected in the performance of the also. So, similar way, here also, I got a lot of experience while attending this course, three days workshop on the MOOC, and all the staff members, they are helped a lot and assisted us without any hesitation and they are looked at very nicely. So, thank you one and all. We were talking like this, that when it is 4.30 pm, 5.30 pm, the finish time, the participants start doing something from 4.30 pm, that now it is 5.30 pm, when it will be 5.30 pm. Here, it was so much fun, that yesterday, it was about 13-14 hours of work. So, it was a different feeling, it was a different experience. No one tied it here, everyone tied it to themselves. Feedback? Sir, how do you deal with the students? Sir, it is not here, it is outside. The students you deal with, you are mad at them, the students you deal with, we are mad at them. Second thing is, whatever we have created, if we get feedback on it, that it is enough, we can improve it, the 6 courses that we have created, it will be better for everyone. Another thing is, the timing selected for this training, that is also good, because there are vacations everywhere, so no one can come freely, their responsibilities are not there. Another thing is that, for Mook, this training was given to us. If it is not on a platform like Mook, but in a simple form, if its training videos are available, then the people outside who are not here, or are hesitating, they will benefit from it. And a forum will probably start, by itself, that everyone will participate in it. But it is a good platform, and I would like to thank everyone for such a good experience. Thank you. Good evening all. Patan, I should not say all this, but I would like to add one thing, this is a matter of artificial intelligence and emotional intelligence, especially of artificial intelligence, and what I experience at the school level, the emotions of the students or the teachers or the community have taken a lot, as we are using this technology. So somewhere we have to think on, whatever we are creating, as Sir also said, that NCF-2005 is called. So somewhere the ethics or moral values or emotional values are getting down, so we have to think on it, whenever we are creating such kind of digital content, like that. Thank you very much. I think all these things have come, but I would like to share with you that the first thing that I felt here, that somewhere we have to work culture of the IIT, Mumbai. Because the time frame that we came from, we were thinking that it will end at 5 o'clock, then we will think again. So, in Sidhu, I should have said that it should have been a topic, it should have been a session, and it should have been when it will end, when it will start, there shouldn't have been any timing. It should have been comfortable, it should have started. The second thing that I liked the most is that wherever we go, the material, the procedural material is not given. Some content is all, the delivery part is something else. But here, I was given the documentation that if we are forgetting to upload something, then I have that documentation and after looking at that page, I can go and revive it again. I liked it a lot. So, thank you all for the cooperation given to us. Thank you. So, what you got as a booklet that was prepared with the help of Brinda and Gayatri, she just left. So, all this was done in a very short time in less than a week. So, we thought we have to start somewhere and the edX documentation is very big. It's more than 300 pages. So, we just prepared the document for your workshop. So, I hope that was just the first draft. So, we will modify that and we will give it to you maybe in another week's time. So, that is one thing which I just want to tell you. Brinda and Urmila have been working on this platform for last six, seven months. Each and every component very well. So, they could explain each and every part to you very well and but the main problem is they are not very comfortable in talking to people. So, that is so, I hope you all enjoyed and if you have any questions, you can always ask us. So, I suppose it's time for me to start handing out the certificates.
