Leveraging Digital Tools and AI Strategies in Language Teaching

Central Institute of Educational Technology (CIET), a constituent unit of NCERT, is developing an e-resource for students based on textbooks. Its major aim is to promote the utilisation of educational technologies, viz. Audio, Video, multimedia packages, Satellite communications and cyber media, either separately or in combinations. This institute undertakes activities to widen educational opportunities, promote equity, and improve the quality of educational processes at the school level.
Educational repositories hosted by the institute, like DIKSHA (One Nation One Digital Platform) and ePathshala, host a large number of educational resources in various school subjects and in different Indian languages for Foundational, Middle and Secondary classes. Resources are made available in different formats such as documents, images, graphics, animation, audio, video and interactive programmes.
As digital tools and platforms have been proven to benefit students, teachers, and school leaders in enhancing learning, administration, and collaboration, Google Workspace for Education and allied applications will be promoted with a clear system for feedback and user ratings to ensure their effectiveness and quality in school transformation. NEP 2020 envisions the integration of digital technology at all levels of education to ensure inclusive, equitable and quality learning. It emphasizes the use of advanced digital platforms and tools to support school management, enable teacher professional development, and promote active engagement of students in technology-enabled learning environments.
The policy highlights the need for robust digital infrastructures, data-driven decision-making, and capacity building of teachers and leaders to effectively integrate Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education. In this context, Google Workspace for Education and associated tools offer a comprehensive digital ecosystem that aligns with the vision of NEP 2020 to make schools more collaborative, transparent and efficient.
In this connection, Central Institute of Educational Technology (CIET), in collaboration with Google for Education, is organizing a special series of 4 days online training programme on “Leveraging Digital Tools and AI Strategies in Language Teaching,” scheduled from October 27–30, 2025 from 10:00 AM-11:00 AM. Each session will be access through NCERT YouTube official (NCERTOFFICIAL) and PM eVidya DTH TV channel through live streaming from the NCERT studio and will include expert presentations and demonstrations. The complete series will also be compiled and made available as a course on the DIKSHA portal to ensure wider access among the educational community. Teachers, Teacher Educators, Students and stakeholders will be invited for the training programme. The objectives of the online training series are:
