Few months ago the seven Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) and Indian Institute of Sciences (IISc) Launched many of the lecture videos by eminent Professors in their college into the internet through Youtube. Also Various courses and notes are available in the internet.



The IITs have taken up an initiative of starting on-line teaching and thus have started offering course materials on-line for every engineering stream.The main objective of NPTEL program is to enhance the quality of engineering education in the country by developing curriculum based video and web courses. This is being carried out by seven IITs and IISc Bangalore as a collaborative project. In the first phase of the project, supplementary content for 129 web courses in engineering/science and humanities have been developed. Each course contains materials that can be covered in depth in 40 or more lecture hours. In addition, 110 courses have been developed in video format, with each course comprising of approximately 40 or more one-hour lectures. In the next phase other premier institutions are also likely to participate in content creation.
