| Abstract | Affording a greater accessibility to technology is recognized as imperative to the education of tomorrow's students. KidSat/Youth Enhancing Space Project uses a progressive approach to entice students' curiosity. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach to the implementation of KidSat/Youth Enhancing Space Project curriculum, students are involved in transferring their new knowledge to other disciplines, which facilitates their learning process. Defining features of KidSat/Youth Enhancing Space are its innovative method of promoting teacher and student ownership and collaborative relationships in development of a curriculum that is salient to the child; one that is diligently monitored by teachers for content and high standards. Students' understanding of science, mathematics and technology concepts is enhanced by student involvement in project design and implementation and with teachers, scientists, and engineers serving as content advisors. This process not only enriches student learning, but also fosters teacher involvement in their own professional growth and development. The educational objectives for KidSat/Youth Enhancing Space are (1) to advance the learning of middle school students through the use of science, math, space technology, geography and other subject areas, (2) to develop an in infrastructure that will foster student intellectual exploration and discovery, and (3) to develop and implement teacher training institutes geared to achieving mastery of technology, subject knowledge, and the reasoning skills imparted to students. |

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.
