Hi, In the recently held Delhi FOSS meetup I met Kalpana who is trying to move some schools in Assam to a FOSS based infrastructure. I promised her that I would share all resources that i had with me. Find below most of the material we used for school teachers' training in West Bengal. Also find some links from the i...@school movement in Karnataka and Kerala. I was involved in a small way in the Karnataka chapter and I can put you in touch with the people there. The problem is that almost all their content was in Kannada. I would like to thank hardworking members of ilucal Kolkata, fsmk and fsug Bangalore and Space Kerala for their effort in creating all this content. Hope all this helps people.
