Workshop on Open Education Resources

I started learning to use wikieducator in the workshop on wikieducator and Open Education Resources. The Principal of our college Dr. Savithri Singh had conducted the workshop . The workshop coordinators were Dr. Sarita Kumar of Zoology Department and Dr. Arijit Chowdhuri of Physics Department. The programme coordinator was Mr. Subhash Kumar also of Physics Department. All the three teachers belong to AND College. Many teachers as well as students of University of Delhi had actively participated in this workshop. Some participants had come from outside Delhi also.

Since January this year I have become involved as a resource person in several face-to-face L4C workshops to introduce others to Wikieducator family.
