==Note from the SPD RMSA, Karnataka==
Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyaan (RMSA), Karnataka is happy to pilot the innovate Subject Teacher Forums programme for high school teachers. Teachers need a community of peer practitioners for continuous learning and professional development. Providing such an experience only through physical interactions and meetings has its challenges because of the geographical spread and the classroom responsibilities of the teachers. Therefore a digitally enabled community of learners allows for continuous collaboration and networking that makes self and peer learning a reality. This will be a very effective complement to the physical forums. [http://karnatakaeducation.org.in/KOER/Science%20PDFs/Science%20Resource%20Book%20-%20Topic%203%20-%20Organisms.pdf more]
==Note from the Director, RMSA, Karnataka, Sri M.N.Baig==
Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyaan (RMSA), Karnataka in order to improve the quality
of teaching-learning in high school classrooms is piloting a new programme that will enable
teachers to become digitally knowledgeable. This is to promote the effective use of ICTs provided
by the ICT Phase 1 and 2 programmes in the government high schools. Through this programme
teachers will start creating open resources that are free to share, and modify thus enabling them to
integrate ICTs into the regular curriculum teaching and learning.
A web portal has been created for all teachers to access the created resources and have links to
external resources. The vision of this portal is to enable teachers to blog , discuss and share their
ideas, resources they create and their concerns to promote deeper understanding of their subject, as
well as enable teachers to participate at a systemic level thus enabling decentralisation.
The teachers have also attempted to look at their subject teaching in different ways by engaging
extensively with the recommendations of the National Curriculum Framework,2005 and familiarising themselves with new methodologies that include new skills needed in the information
society. The teachers have put together digital resource material in various themes from the above
learnings. [http://karnatakaeducation.org.in/KOER/Science%20PDFs/Science%20Resource%20Book%20-%20Topic%203%20-%20Organisms.pdf Source]

The JRM team also observed an impressive in-service training program in Karnataka which incorporates ICT in the training (in some government schools teacher support is provided through an open operating system called Subject Teacher Forum under which 5000 teachers across 34 districts have learnt to use digital tools and resources for their subject teaching). - [http://slideshare.net/KarnatakaOER/3rd-mhrd-jrm-aide-memoire 3rd RMSA JRM, MHRD.
