DEVELOPMENT OF E-CONTENT ON
ANCIENT INDIAN METALLURGY AND MODERN PROCESS
METALLURGY
OBJECTIVE1. To develop video documentary and e-content on the traditional
Indian metallurgical process ( like ancient iron making , zinc production at Zawar mines Rajasthan, Gold-sand picking and its treatment of Swarnrekha river Jharkhand etc) -To provide a scientific and technological basis of these traditional process and compare merits of these processes with modern metallurgical processes.-Explore commercial viability of traditional Indian metallurgical process.

JUSTIFICATION AND RELEVANCE Inspired by one the objective of ICT mission “Deriving
lessons from our ancient knowledge base” , this project will
Provide a platform for generation, sharing and pooling of all the e-contents related to “Ancient Indian Metallurgy”
Make available supporting teaching material for the following courses taught in various technical institution and universities all over India.
“extractive metallurgy” and similar courses “history of science and technology of India” or similar
courses
JUSTIFICATION AND RELEVANCE
Virtual visits to the all type of metallurgical plants , which otherwise practically difficult.
Provide reference learning material to the students and learner, who are not registered in any formal technical institution like AMIE/IIM students
Create infrastructure in the Banaras Hindu University for development of e-content , which will first and unique of this kind and may be used further as for similar projects. To train and support to learners/workers in the university.
APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY1. Constitution of core committee of the subject experts
on the selected area and compilation of their ideas. 2. Literature and field research for preparation of a valid
document and script3. Script writing and Shooting of Digital film on the
scripted document4. Animation based on the content of digital film5. Workshop and Interviews of the subject experts on
the digital films.6. Incorporation of all the multimedia content (text, video,
audio, animation) in very interesting and entertaining manner.
7. Screening of film to select audience After Editing and post production video
8. Final touch will be given on the basis of response and feedback from the audience the final edited version of video will be produced.
