Dear all

IT for Change has been working with Karnataka Education department for last six years promoting FOSS platforms and tools in schools. Based on this programme, the Telengana Govt has asked our help to initiate similar training in Hyderabad. Two workshops of five days have been planned - 2-6 March and 16-20 March for maths/science teachers.

We will conduct the training on Ubuntu based educational applications. For these workshops, we wanted the help of 2 local (Hyderabad) people, who are comfortable using Ubuntu, to provide support to teachers in the hands-on sessions. These two workshops are pilot efforts to get an idea of the Telengana requirements/contexts and based on the learning, I expect the Govt to look at a multi-year programme similar to what we are doing in Karnataka (see http://karnatakaeducation.org.in/KOER/en/index.php/Subject_Teacher_Forum)

Any suggestions/volunteers welcome.

regards
Guru
