Orientation Session on Audio Resource Creation for Volunteers
Background
IT for Change has been working with the Department of State Educational Research and Training (DSERT) and Government Colleges for Teacher Education (CTEs) to conduct workshops focusing on creating rich audio story-based resources by government higher primary school teachers.
