=== Background ===
The [https://dsert.karnataka.gov.in/english Department of State Educational Research and Training (DSERT)], Karnataka in collaboration with [https://itforchange.net/education IT for Change (ITfC)] has piloted the program ‘[[Integrating Digital Story-Based Pedagogy in Language Education]]’ in Karnataka through 4 CTE’s – Mysuru, Chitradurga, Belagavi and Gulbarga from 2023-24.

As part of this program, ITfC has been working with the government Colleges for Teacher Education (CTEs) to conduct workshops focusing on creating rich audio story-based resources by government higher primary school teachers, CRPs and BRPs. The 1st set of workshops focused on story narration and recording and the second set of workshops will focus on enhancing and productionizing these audio stories by adding sound and music effects.

=== Objectives of the workshop ===

* Productionising the narrated audio stories to make them available for language teachers

* Enriching the "Sri Aluru Venkata Rao Language Lab" OER resources repository for language teaching-learning
* To help teachers to explore '''FOSS''' (Free and Open Source Software) tools for resource creation
