| Abstract | Technology is used to empower students to go beyond traditional limitations. EarthVision provides the opportunity to participate in an authentic research environment enables the students to develop a sense of self worth and esteem established in the context of a phased curriculum, bringing together experts in a variety of disciplines. New techniques such as modeling and scientific visualization are employed to expand the types of phenomena which are possible to examine at a high school level. The use of concept strands going from simple elements to complicated representations helps to move the teacher/student teams from a highly structured learning environment to one that is highly independent. The scientific method, which employs validation throughout the computational science process, brings rigor and integrity which stimulates skill development needed for the development of autonomy. The result is significant cognitive development coupled with a positive affective orientation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
