Twin objectives of the Open Educational Resources Repository

1. Availability of good quality curricular resources

One of the challenges identified by the National Curricular Framework 2005 (NCF) is lack of good quality relevant curricular resources: This provides a poor learning environment. Most teachers have only the text book as the curricular resource for any subject. Further, the teachers are also treated as consumers of centrally produced resources (textbooks or digital content) and there is little scope and opportunity for them to create resources appropriate for their classroom situations. Often times, the teachers have very little access to resources beyond the classroom.
