Web-based educational technology for agriculture

Agriculture education and knowledge management need to focus on content development and management. However as the clientele as diverse as students and farmers, the delivery style and mode of content has to be very specific.

Educationists in Universitites have to emphasise on using multimedia and web friendly tools. The traditional mode of chalk and talk and classroom teaching have to be broken. Use of exiting infrastructre and use open source software for developing ontent and learner management system have to be looked into.
