Dear Sir / Madam / Parents / Students,
English Blog was started on 5th September 2011. Since then English Blog
has been providing study materials for Kerala Syllabus classes
5,6,7,8,9,10,11 and 12. We have also tried to include materials for Std.
1,2,3 and 4 (though not successful). We were one of the first of
educational blogs that published SCERT First Term and Second Term
question bank in 2011. SCERT First Term question bank was password
protected yet we made it available for the general public when the
time of secrecy was over. Thus we started providing study materials for
Kerala Syllabus Malayalam, Hindi, Social Science, Physics, Chemistry,
Biology, Maths and I.T.other than English.
It is 2 years and 8 months now..... What made me write this post is the
surprising fact that 95% of the English Teachers of our state do not
know that there exists such a blog for their help. I realised this when I
went to the valuation camp at Kottayam, this year. There were around 200
teachers there but not more than 15 knew about English Blog !!!!!!!!!
From a person who visited all the valuation camps I came to know that
English Blog is popular in some northern districts like Malappuram and Palakkad.. From the rest of
the districts very few enquired about it.
What adds to my surprise is the reality that if an English teacher
searches something related to any of the chapters in our English Texts,
the Google will display English Blog in the first 10 search results.
This being the fact if there are a huge number of English teachers who
do not know about the existence of such a blog for them. That means,
either they don't search for materials in the internet or they are
indifferent to such a blog.
Then the question arises... Who are we blogging for ? What is the use of running such a blog spending money from my pocket ?
Sir please dont be upset Many of us are so thankful to you for such a fruitful blog
ReplyDeleteSir, your efforts are really useful to many teachers like me.Your post help me to prepare my lessons and also during revision time when no number of questions and samples are enough. This blog is a blessing for me .So please don't loose heart . There are many such teachers who are indebted to you.
ReplyDeleteI heard that the text books for the academic year 2014-15 is revised. Sir, If you don't mind please try to link the e-version of English text books especially Upper Primary section.
