Cam Studio...technology in education

Technology is playing a great role in the betterment of education process. Today we are not restricted or bound to follow the traditional methods of teaching in the classrooms. We are provided with innovative methods of teaching which are very interesting to first learn by the teachers and then used for teaching in the classrooms for the students. There are abundant resources available on the web. A correct guidance and skill to use them effectively is only required. Earlier, monetary constraints were bothering the schools to use only the proprietry softwares, but now due to the explosion of open source ,the problem has been solved. Now, only great thinking mind and a group of like minded people are required to fully utilise them to improve upon the education in India.
