 Hello everyone, in this video we are going to see how to access Swyam NPTEL courses that have been translated into regional languages. These courses can be accessed at the Swyam site, at the NPTEL site and directly through the YouTube channel. So, we will begin by looking at how you can access it at the Swyam site. At the Swyam site you can access content only if you have enrolled for those courses and to do so you should sign in and register and enroll for a course. So, we will begin by first going to sign in. I have previously signed in through a Google account. So, if I click on this Google account it will sign me in. If you are a new user to this portal you would have to create an account and sign in or you could use one of your existing accounts such as a Google account to sign in. So, I have now signed in, I go and search for a course. So, in this case I am going to search for introduction to research. You can also see down here Swyam courses and regional languages that is another way to get to this same content, but let me go to this course here and show you how to do it. So, once I click on that course I arrive at this page you can see here this course is visible at this location and this is an on upcoming course I am going to click on it. Now, you come to this page and because I have previously enrolled for this course it allows me to go to this course. If I had not previously enrolled for this course it would give me an option to join the course. So, now let us go to this course. You can see here the course outline and the first week content has already been made public. So, we will open the first week content and I will open the first video. You can see here in this panel the video is ready to play below it you see another panel where you have text in English. So, let me start playing the video what you will see is there is an option to see subtitles in this region and there is an option to see scrolling text down here. So, let us start playing the video and I will fast forward to a little bit into the video. So, when we discuss about research I think the aspects that we need to look at are what you will see here let me lower the volume here. What you will see here is there is a settings button you can click on it you can see a subtitles and there is a number 9 listed there that means in that many options of subtitles you have I will click it here and let me say I pick Hindi. So, now you can start seeing subtitles in Hindi for the conversation that is going on here I have muted the volume here I will turn it on in a moment. On here you have scrolling text that is already scrolling in English you can select again using this drop down menu you can select any of these languages in which the subtitles are available or the translation is available and for example, I will pick Hindi. So, you can see now text that is available in this panel that scrolls up. So, it gives you a lot more flexibility to follow what is being discussed and on top you have the subtitles. You can see here subtitles in Hindi and you can also see scrolling text in Hindi. You have the flexibility to change the language at any time. So, I can change this now to Tamil and you will see subtitles in Tamil. You can see that this is independent of what is scrolling here. So, you can have two different languages playing at the same time if you wish. So, I will just for to demonstrate I will pick Tamil here as well. So, it is now playing in Tamil in both places and I can switch to another language. Let us say Malayalam so there it is switched to Malayalam I will switch it back to Hindi. So, you can you have the option of watching it in a variety of different languages in which the translation has been completed. As I mentioned in the beginning you can also access the translated content at the NPTEL site. There are two ways you can reach the NPTEL site. You can directly go to the NPTEL site or you can come to this button here which says Swayam courses in regional languages and if you click on this button it will take you to the NPTEL site. The advantage of seeing it in the NPTEL site is that you do not require a login at this page and therefore, you can access the content directly. So, if you just scroll down a bit you can see a list of courses out here and a list of languages on the top. Where you see a tick mark it implies that that particular course for example, programming in C++ has been translated in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. It is being translated currently in Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada and so these are the languages and if it is being currently translated and translation is yet to start in Malayalam and Marathi. So, this page gives you a snapshot of the level or extent to which translation has been done in a particular course. So, we can scroll down in this page and so for example, the course number 15 is the same introduction to research course. You can see that it has been translated in 7 languages and it is in progress in the 8th language. So, from here we can actually click on the course and then go to the course and which we will do in a moment. But before that if you see on top you can also see that there is a link which says books. You can click on that link. This gives a very unique repository of books in regional languages for highly technical courses. So, for example, you have introduction to research here I have clicked Gujarati here you can see books which have been you know which are now available in Bengali for all these courses. These are the courses for which you have books in Gujarati and so on. So, if I click introduction to research you can see that this is a book that consists of all the transcripts of the videos that have been used for this multidisciplinary course introduction to research. If you scroll down you can see the people who have put in a lot of time and effort to complete this translation and you can continue scrolling down you will see an index then you have the transcripts in the form of a book. So, this is a great resource which you can download and use as you see appropriate. So, let us go back to the translation let us go back to the courses here the courses tab and that is the table that we previously saw. So, if you scroll down here I will again pick on this course introduction to research. So, let us just click here you will arrive at this course. So, this course you could have also arrived by just arriving at the NPTEL site and searching for it which we will do in a bit. You can see here the same features there is a scrolling text option down here and you have a video on top you can just click to play the video I will put the audio on mute of the video and we can just forward to some little position later into the video and again you can go to the settings subtitles and you can pick the subtitle that you like. So, let me pick Hindi here and you can see subtitles and Hindi and so on. So, again I will pick Tamil you can see the subtitles and Tamil. So, this is the way in which and you can see the scrolling text right now the scrolling text is showing it in English you can change languages and these are features that we are incorporating in multiple courses. So, this is the way in which you can see this content I would also like to add that if you come up here you see transcripts and books. So, this is similar to what you previously saw. So, let us click on transcripts and again once you click on transcripts you can see the various languages listed here. So, if I click on Hindi I can get the transcript for each of the classes I can get a transcript in Hindi which I can then see. Similarly, if I go to the books I can see all the languages in which books are available for this course and I can download that. So, this is the way in which you can access it at the NPTEL site. I will open a new window and I can show you how to reach this directly from the NPTEL site. This came to this through the swine site. So, this is a new window in which I will type nptel.ac.n and it brings me to the NPTEL site. At the NPTEL site you can scroll down and you will see a link to NPTEL translation. If you click on this you will come back to the translation site which we already saw. Alternately if you come back to the NPTEL site under courses you have NPTEL courses and I can search for a course. So, I will just search again for introduction to research and I get the course. Once I click on the course I will come back to the same site and all the features that are available to you become available here. Please note these are all being seen on the YouTube site and therefore, if you arrive at the same course through the YouTube channel you will again have the same set of features. You will arrive at the same page and you will start seeing the same features. So, to summarize you can reach this content from the swine site, from the NPTEL site and directly from the YouTube channel. Once you arrive at the course you can see the translated content in the form of subtitles, in the form of scrolling text, in the form of downloadable transcripts and in the form of downloadable books. The only difference between the swine site and the NPTEL site is at the swine site you have to enroll for the course in order to see the content, in order to access the course and therefore, in order to access the translations or at the NPTEL site it is in the form of a repository and you can access it at any time without having to specifically enroll for a course. Thank you.
