[[File:Urdu workshop - teachers recording auido.jpg|565x565px|alt=|thumb]]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. It also aims to study the implementation of digital story-based pedagogy in classrooms in order to understand the effectiveness of the methods, successes and challenges of teachers, and identify aspects requiring improvement and redesign.
 +
 +
In the academic year 2024-25, IT for Change plans to collaborate with the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), Bengaluru North to support the implementation of the program in Government Urdu Higher Primary Schools and study the role of the program in developing language competencies of students.
 +
 +
The planned approach is to mainly work with Cluster Resource Persons (CRPs) who can support classroom implementation in two blocks in the district. Workshops will be conducted with the CRPs and teachers where aspects related to using digital story-based pedagogy in language teaching will be discussed.

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. It also aims to study the implementation of digital story-based pedagogy in classrooms in order to understand the effectiveness of the methods, successes and challenges of teachers, and identify aspects requiring improvement and redesign.

In the academic year 2024-25, IT for Change plans to collaborate with the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), Bengaluru North to support the implementation of the program in Government Urdu Higher Primary Schools and study the role of the program in developing language competencies of students.

The planned approach is to mainly work with Cluster Resource Persons (CRPs) who can support classroom implementation in two blocks in the district. Workshops will be conducted with the CRPs and teachers where aspects related to using digital story-based pedagogy in language teaching will be discussed.

Workshop Objectives

  • To familiarize the CRPs with the TPD program for the academic year
  • To support the DIET in building CRPs’ capacities for mentoring, supervising and facilitating teachers to use multilingual, inclusive and constructivist pedagogies in language teaching
  • To help CRPs access and make use of available resource repositories
  • To help CRPs familiarize themselves with the use of FOSS tools for facilitating their academic and administrative tasks and processes.
