Vidyaweb is an attempt to use e-learning for providing knowledge about increasingly popular open source technologies. The medium of instruction will be the language understood by the distance learner in India. Initially, we will start with beginner level courses for HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, MySQL and Linux. We will also introduce you to Open Source Content Management systems Joomla and Drupal as well as an E-Learning System Moodle.

The primary method of instruction will be through discussing the problems and questions posted by users trying to do specific tasks and then solving their problems through discussions and examples. Please do not hesitate to ask; how simple is the question does not matter.

Enrolment is open to all and you can join anytime.
