Possible solutions to deliver:
WordPress: Word press is a free and open source content management system (CMS).It is a software through which we can create a beautiful website blog or app.WordPress consolidates effortlessness for clients and distributers with in the engine many-sided quality for designers. This makes it adaptable while as yet being anything but difficult to-use.Word press is known for its simplicity, flexibility, and publish in ease.
Wikieducator:WikiEducator is a group venture working cooperatively with the free culture movement towards incremental improvement of open instructive assets.WikiEducator is a developing free content for use in school ,polytechnics and university for education and information purposes.It contains media wiki and lot more information which can be shared buy the students and Students get to modify the information available on wiki which everyone can see.We can learn different wiki codes through which we can edit the wiki educator and it’s really useful.
You tube video tutorials: You tube is a interesting way of delivering the information to the students.In this kind of tutorials the mode of understanding will be through video which is very easy to understand step by step. You tube has interactive comments session which makes interesting for the users.

- For teaching this is the best way to interact with the students
- Video elements are supported and also has an interactive comments section which makes the learning section more interesting.
Methodology:
There are different types of teaching methodologies including
- ADDIE
- OTARA
- RAPID Prototyping
RAPID Prototyping:
Rapid prototyping is self explanatory.During this process a number of designs are created and its not interactive.So didn’t choose Rapid prototyping.
OTARA Methodology:
The OTARA model as a movement focused outline structure that you can use for the projects and courses,and it gives an answer for steady,successful,and reusable learning plans.The best methodology for developing this kind of leaning outcomes is OTARA.This methodology is clear,simple, and easy to understand(wikieducator, 2015).

The otara methodology consists of
- Objectives
- Themes
- Activities
- Resources
- Assessment
Project plan:This is an assumption of completing the project in the respective dates.
| Weeks | Tasks |
| 13stApril-21stApril
|
Complete the project proposal and preliminary design. |
| 4thMay-10thMay | Research works, understanding the concept ,finding related videos. Creating otara model. |
| 26thMay-31stMay | Arranging the project works, checking the assignments ,Gathering the research works. |
| 1stJune-2ndJune | Implementation and reflection report. Reflective journal and poster. |
Preliminary design:
The design presentation that i am using here is OTARA type of methodology.I am using this because it is the simplest way of designing a learning structure and its easy to understand.
| Objectives | Themes/content | Resources | Activities | Assessment |
| Students should understand the basic of Indian history and Mahavharat | History of Mahabharat | Wiki, internet and the links and videos posted | Read and understand the design | Explain who are all the main characters of Mahabharat.
What lead to this big war . Why mahabharat is talked as on of the epic history in India. |
| Identify the key reasons for this mahabharat to take place. | Research work | Presentation and videos I gave, online searching and wiki | Upload pictures and videos related to the researching topic. | Identify the reason for ths war.
What are you learning from Indian history?
|
| Baisc leanring technologies used on this leaning blog,and tools | Finishing the project, preparing reflection method. | Wiki or online | What are the things we can learn from this topic.
What tools we have used in this project. |
How old is this mahabharat is?
Mention some of the scientific facts that proves this topic. |
This gives the student a more easier way to go through the content and finish it easily.The Otara methodology is the simplest way of learning.
An over view of how implantation page will look is added and all the rest of the pages will look the same. So added there first page preview of the implementation phase
A navigation map of the mahabharata history:
This shows the history and the scientific proof of mahabharat. How old it dates back and the technique they used in the war.
The Guru diagram:
This shows the origin of the mahabharat family line and how thy got divided due to which the epic battle was started.
