Under the IIT Bombay project, more than 50 courses are delivered in 22 official languages of India through CSC academy centres across the country. These courses include topics such as programming, operating systems, database management, graphics, animation, etc.

Basic coding in Java, HTML, MySQL, PHP, C, C++, 2D-3D graphics and animation, Python etc can be learned through this initiative. Courses relevant at the school level are also provided. According to IIT Bombay, the Spoken Tutorial Project will add more courses through the CSC academy network.

Once a student completes a course, he or she can attempt an online test held at the DITE CSC academy. Passing the test will earn the student a joint certificate from CSC Academy and Spoken Tutorial Project of IIT Bombay. “Quality education for youth in rural areas is the key to bridge the rural-urban divide.

I) OverviewThe Spoken Tutorial project (at IIT Bombay) is an initiative funded by the National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (ICT), launched by the Ministry of Human Resources and Development, Government of India.                   The project focuses on delivering e-learning IT courses on various Free and Open Source Software (FOSS). The main objective of this project is to promote IT literacy for education and improve the employment potential of learners in India, using FOSS (Free and Open Source Software). 

These courses are designed keeping the following student learning benefits:


The audio of Spoken Tutorials courses is available in all 22 official languages of India, with the video always in English. Self-paced, multi-lingual courses ensure that anybody with a computer and a desire for learning, can learn from any place, at any time and in a language of their choice. Many of the software taught, are used in various disciplines of Engineering, Pure Sciences and several other Under-Graduate and Post-Graduate studies. These can be extended to Commerce, Arts and Management streams as well.  

Alongside these, there are some courses relevant at School level, too, which help school students to visualize difficult concepts of Math and Science.  These can also be used by Teachers to prepare lesson plans, explain abstract concepts and give digital assignments to students.

More than 50+ IT courses are available under this initiative covering topics under programming, Operating systems, Database, Graphics/animation, etc.-  basic coding for school children, Java, HTML, MySQL, PHP, C, C++, 2D/3D graphics animation, Python, Perl, Ruby, Linux, and many more.
