Description
Summary:Spoken Tutorials are an instructional methodology to train students on IT topics at a national level through self-learning. Problems that beginner users face in accessing information from online resources are explained. A timed online discussion forum, through which users of Spoken Tutorials can ask their questions, and also learn from previous discussions, is presented. In this Timed Question and Answer Forum, learners access information by pinpointing the exact time of the Spoken Tutorial at which one may have questions. This forum is helpful not only to the beginners, but also to other learners who participate in massive distributed workshops as well. Discussions in this forum double as document/FAQ for the software.
