hi,
Some work related to this was discussed on the list earlier. Some of this
work has been collated here -
. See
the talk page for some backstory on this project.
Ashwin Baindur (currently on vaccation) was involved in trying to make it
happen. Do see if this works well?
warm regards,
Pradeep Mohandas

Thank you for your response. Putting together
subject-based collections
aligned to specific state & central boards would be extremely helpful, so
any assistance you can provide would be very welcome. Even if there is no
money to print books, such collections still have value for schools in
electronic formats - the general Wikipedia for Schools collection (based
on a UK curriculum) is popular all over the world. But we should still
try to get some interest in books, too!
Thanks a lot,
Martin

Hello sir,
I am glad you took such a step. I am a student of the Indian Institute of
Science Education and Research (IISER)- mohali. Presently I am in first
year. I have been doing some work in the field of education for past 3
years but I was really active only in the past year. I would like to help
you in chalking out a syllabus suitable for many state boards and the
central boards. This attempt might work very well in english itself
though
publication in hindi would not be a bad idea
either. However I doubt if
some agency would be supporting this initiative. I can try to talk to
some
officials nearby but the problem is that I do not
have proper credentials
to represent any body. However, I will try to do whatever I can. Let me
know, if I can be of some use.
