The channel has 85,000 subscribers, Bhowmick said and noted that uploaded content has been watched around 7.30 lakh times.The use of these contents is not just limited to Chhattisgarh, instead they are being watched in other Hindi-speaking states as well as overseas where Indians are residing, Bhowmick pointed out.He said work on the creation of digital content started in October 2018 and it played a major role in helping students during COVID-19.The official said that the content has been enriched using animation, videos, picture images, and text materials to sustain the interest of students."Our focus during the creation of content is that a student should be able to understand it easily," he said.The subject experts selected for the creation of content belong to government and private schools as well as colleges. The experts later participate in a training session.Bhowmick said SECRT has not hired any agency outside for the initiative."SECRT has its own studio where we shoot, dub, edit and perform other tasks related to the videos with the help of our technical staff. The subject experts also sit with the technical staff during the editing of the videos to support them and to ensure the quality of the final product. Before these are uploaded, the content is checked at multiple levels," he said.Apart from YouTube, the content is also uploaded on the website of Chhattisgarh's SECRT.SCERT Director Rajesh Singh Rana said various options are being explored to take the digital study material to the widest audience.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
