Program Overview
With the key objective of enriching students’ language learning experiences by leveraging the power of storytelling as a pedagogical tool along with the newer possibilities that the digital medium offers, the Department of State Educational Research and Training (DSERT) and the Colleges of Teacher Education (CTEs) across Karnataka collaborated with IT for Change to pilot the program ‘Integrating Digital Story-Based Pedagogy in Language Education’ during 2023-24. The program has been designed to aid the process of language teaching-learning and as a result, students’ educational outcomes by focusing on teachers’ professional development (TPD). In year 1, the focus was primarily on building capacities of teachers to create audio resources. Over 200 high-quality audio stories have been produced in Kannada, English, Urdu and Marathi languages and are published as Open Educational Resources for teachers across the state.
The 2024-25 phase of the program aims to focus on enabling classroom level implementation through techno-pedagogy workshops and school level support.
