The resulting movie is the spoken tutorial


Typically of 10 minute duration

Slide 3 Steps in Creating Spoken Tutorials are


Outline

Translating the script into other languages and


Dubbing

Slide 12


Go line by line

Let us discuss how to present complex topics through spoken tutorials.


After all, a spoken tutorial is only ten minutes long.


By combining spoken tutorials, advanced topics can also be taught.


If sufficient small steps are available,


Himalayas can also be climbed.


Let us now view the study plans for LaTeX and Scilab

Slide 13


Go line by line

One can bridge digital divide through spoken tutorials.


For example, one can explain how to buy train tickets through irctc


How to locate low cost agricultural loans.


How to locate information on primary health care.


How to obtain information on first aid.


How to do web search to locate the shop that sells Tvs at the lowest price.


Indeed, this list is endless.


As a matter of fact, this approach can be used to bridge digital divide.

Slide 14 Spoken tutorials are released under creative commons license.


These are available for free download from the spoken tutorial website.

Slide 15


Go line by line

Let us discuss the honorarium available for creating a ten minute spoken tutorial


Rs. 3,500 to create script and slides


Rs. 500 for review by novice or beginner


Rs. 1,000 for recording the spoken tutorial - this can be done by the beginner as well


Rs. 1,000 for translation into a local language


Rs. 500 for dubbing into a local language.


To be paid after review and acceptance.


The above amounts are for a ten minute spoken tutorial. Actual honorarium will be proportional to the number of minutes.


There is a one time bonus of Rs. 5,000 also
