Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

MOCK TESTS IN REGIONAL LANGUAGES

 Dear All ,

 

Since its launch yesterday , My-Teacher has got encouraging response . I believe the Mock Test feature has proved very popular

 

As of today , Mock Test is restricted to English language . We need to offer this in other Indian languages as well . Then only, millions of students from 12 lakh village schools , will be able to use it .

 

If we manage to offer many languages , then these “ dis-advantaged “ students will be able to compete with their urban counterparts

 

To be able to offer , consists of following two parts :

 

Ø   From various Online sources , downloading ( 12th Standard ? ) TEXT BOOKS in various local languages ( as we did with English texts of CBSE syllabus )

 

Ø   To develop a high-end TRANSLATION SOFTWARE , capable of accurately translating EQUATIONS – FORMULA – SYMBOLS etc ., which routinely appear in Physics – Chemistry – Biology – Maths etc

 

 

Of these , Kishan will do R&D and find the most appropriate software

 

Finding / downloading and handing over the BOOKS is OUR JOB

 

I suggest Sanjivani start on this ( compilation task ) right away . Since I have some contacts with Schools in Gujarat , pl start with Gujarati books . She may take help from Sandeep / Manish

 

Following might help

2. Capture the Active Window

4. Using the Snipping Tool (Windows 10 and earlier)

  • Search for "Snipping Tool" in the Start Menu and open it.
  • Choose a Snip Mode: You can select Free-form, Rectangular, Window, or Full-screen Snip.
