E-courses

Courses are a structured way of encountering content. In addition, here you can take the courses at your own pace, taking small chunks at a time, revisiting them as many times as you want.

The courses are designed keeping in view the common needs of teachers, educators and even parents. Each e-course has its own set of objectives and structure, allowing you to decide your path through the course. While some of the courses are only a set of readings, others incorporate interactive features such as discussion forums and workshop sessions. All e-courses allow you to evaluate yourself as you progress. You may also at any point in time seek expert help.

 

Study Groups

A Course in Study Groups aims at understanding the process involved in questioning and clarifying ideas. Being practitioners or researchers or just someone interested in the education process, we have our own biases and theories about education. Study Groups is where we examine them carefully and explore the possibility of accommodating other viewpoints. The debate will perhaps help us understand the complexity of the issue, if not share ways of solving them.
