ഈ ബ്ലോഗ്‌ നിർത്തിയാലോ എന്ന് ആലോചിക്കുന്നു.

ഈ ബ്ലോഗ്‌ നിർത്തിയാലോ എന്ന് ആലോചിക്കുന്നു. നിങ്ങളൊക്കെ എന്ത് മനുഷ്യരാ...? എവിടെ നിന്നൊക്കെയോ ഇവിടെ എത്തി കിട്ടുന്നതൊക്കെ ഡൌണ്‍ലോഡ് ചെയ്ത് കൊണ്ട് പോകുന്നു.

ഇത് ആര് തയ്യാറാക്കി?

അതിന്റെ പിന്നിലെ അധ്വാനം .... 

ഒന്നും നിങ്ങൾചിന്തിക്കാറില്ല...

നിങ്ങളോട് പണമൊന്നും ചോദിക്കുന്നില്ലോ ? ബ്ലോഗിലൊക്കെ എഴുതുന്ന നമ്മളെ പോലെ തന്നെ തിരക്കുകൾ ഒക്കെയുള്ള ആ അധ്യാപകരെ ഒന്ന് പ്രോത്സാഹിപ്പിച്ചുകൂടെ ?

ബ്ലോഗിനുവേണ്ടി സ്ഥിരമായി എഴുതിക്കൊണ്ടിരുന്ന പലരും അത് നിർത്തി. അവർ ചോദിച്ചത് ഒട്ടേറെ പേര് അവർ തയ്യാറാക്കിയ മെറ്റീരിയൽസ് ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നുവെന്ന് ഞാൻ പറയുന്നുണ്ടെങ്കിലും അതിനു തക്ക പ്രതികരണം കമന്റുകളിൽ കാണുന്നില്ലല്ലോ എന്നാണ് ! ആയിരക്കണക്കിന് ഡൌണ്‍ലോഡ്സ് നടക്കുന്നെണ്ടെന്നു ബ്ലോഗ്‌ അഡ്മിൻ ആയ എനിക്കറിയാം.

ഒരു  ഉളുപ്പുമില്ലാതെ അത് ഡൌണ്‍ലോഡ് ചെയ്തു കൊണ്ട് പോവുകയും ഒരു കമന്റ് പോലും എഴുതി പ്രോത്സാഹനമോ വിമർശനമോ നടത്താത്ത അധ്യാപക വർഗ്ഗം ....

നിങ്ങൾക്ക് പകരം വയ്ക്കാൻ ആരുമില്ല.....

കമ്പ്യൂട്ടറിൽ SSLC പരീക്ഷ എഴുതുന്നോ ? SSLC English - Computer Assisted (SETIGam) English Test Paper for all units - Updated

            "A revolution in Kerala Syllabus" that is how we would like to describe Mr. Pramod M.N.'s SETIGam English Test Paper Software. SETIGam is the short form of Self Evaluation Tool In Gambas. We have seen many public schools using such expensive softwares. But here we have a man who has done all the work by himself for free. He is a Maths teacher and has done this for Maths, Physics, Chemistry and English. He downloaded the Unitwise Revision Test Series answers prepared by Ms. Parvathy Venkiteswaran that we published during last SSLC and included it in the software.
         Using computers at school or home the students can use it to evaluate themselves by answering questions from all the units of Std.10 Course Book. It can be installed only in Ubuntu Linux systems.       

How to use it ?

1. Download the set.tar.xz file which includes Maths, Phyics, Chemistry, and English by clicking here) and save it in the 'home' folder.

(for Physics in Tamil by Sudheer. G. N., HSA Phy. Sc. Vandithavalam, Palakkad click here)
(for Maths in Kannada by Austin Bernad a MT from Kasargode click here) 

2. Right click on it and extract it (in your home folder). A folder named "set" will be created in your home folder which contains all the executable files of the SETIGams.

3. Now download setigam_0.0.8-1_all.deb file (Click here) 

4. Then install it by double click (or by right click - open with GDebi Package Installer) (Admin password required)

 4. Ready to use it from Application - Universal Access - SETIGam

 
(Hope this will be more helpful. Please try it and report errors)NB: 1280 X 800 will be the most suitable screen resolution

      We were really amazed to see the work. A lot of hard work is there behind the software. "I have finished with the downloaded question paper which covered all the 5 units. For the last three days I was on it and it made me almost extinguished.......If you send me more question papers then I will do the rest." That is what he told us in the last email.

       On behalf of all the students and teachers of English who follow Kerala Syllabus we thank you sir for this useful evaluation tool. Please don't forget to tell him your feedback through comments.

Applications are invited from teachers to act as Master Trainers in English

Applications are invited from teachers to act as Master Trainers in  English in ‘Kerala Initiative for Teacher Education’, a collaborative project of SSA, Kerala and the British Council.

      Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, Kerala in collaboration with the British Council soon launches a comprehensive project to improve the quality of teaching and learning of English in elementary classes across the state through the development of a core cadre of Master Trainers. The project focuses on improving the provision of elementary school teachers through providing a ten day teacher training course for 640 Master Trainers. The ten day course aims to develop their training skills and knowledge specifically focussing on English language communication skills they need to effectively conduct training in English. The course also provides orientation to the five day teacher training course that the Master Trainers will deliver to elementary school teachers at the grass root level. The key objectives of the initiative are to:

• equip the selected Master Trainers with the training and mentoring competencies to ensure the effective delivery of English training courses to elementary teachers
• develop the fluency and accuracy of the spoken English of the Master Trainers to enable them to conduct training programmes in English effectively
• build the capacity of Master Trainers to support the in-service professional development of elementary teachers in general
• develop the fluency and accuracy of the spoken English of elementary school teachers to enable them to transact the curriculum to children more effectively
• exploit blended learning opportunities to enhance and sustain face to face learning
• build a sustainable infrastructure of self-access English materials to support the continuing professional development of teachers through the BRCs and CRCs
• to support the teaching of English in standards 1 - 8 by providing training for all teachers at the elementary level, focussing on developing the accuracy, fluency and confidence of the spoken English of both teachers and learners
  

Selection criteria:

         Master Trainers will be selected from the pool of Primary teachers, High school teachers, Higher Secondary teachers, SSA Trainers and DIET lecturers. 60% of weightage will be given to primary teachers who teach English at lower primary and upper primary levels. It is important that representative numbers are selected from each district so that training can be conducted effectively at the block level.

The Master Trainers will be selected based on the following criteria:

• Good English language proficiency (Can express him/herself spontaneously, very fluently and precisely, differentiating finer shades of meaning even in more complex situations. Can use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes.)
• Skills and/or aptitude for training teachers evidenced through their previous teaching and training experience
• Appraisal reports from their schools indicating exceptional classroom practice
• Positive attitude to learning and professional development and an interest in being involved in KITE
• Commitment to work as a teacher trainer for SSA and the Education department
• Age limit: 50

Please return the completed application form on or before 10.01.2014 to ssakerala(at)gmail.com with a copy to pkjayarajs(at)gmail.com . If you have any questions, please contact www. keralassa.org.
