United in Literature Against Corona

Let us join hands to complete the BA, MA and MPhil English literature syllabus across the country by making materials freely available to the students

 We understand that in many colleges and universities a lot of syllabus is yet to be covered for BA, MA and MPhil English programmes. Amid the Corona scare, we need to do what we can. Isolated efforts have been made in some colleges and universities across the country to teach students online. But unfortunately most students and teachers look at this lock down as a time to relax. We don't know if that is the right way to go forward. And with corona, we don't know when and how..

After taking feedback from the various stakeholders through different online channels, we at AIFEST have devised a system to bring the willing teachers, earnest students and the necessary materials together at one place. To execute this project, we need your wholehearted assistance.

What we will do:

1. Students and teachers of the various colleges and universities in the country please share the online lectures, materials and syllabus related to BA, MA and MPhil English language and literature programmes via email to aifest.1984@gmail.com

2. Our volunteers will collect, sort and arrange the materials under various heads as per syllabus / institution / topic etc.

3. Students from colleges and universities who find it difficult to get materials on related topics please email the syllabus and the details of the materials you require to aifest.1984@gmail.com 

4. Depending on the quality and quantity of the materials we receive, our volunteers will either post these materials on the AIFEST blog https://forum4english.blogspot.com/ or provide the Google drive links to the same.

5. If more members volunteer, we will be able to list the materials that students need, as well as the list of materials we have received so that the right materials will reach the right person.

6. This is a fully voluntary endeavour to combat the problems caused by the Corona pandemic.

We wholeheartedly request contributions (notes, online lectures, ppts etc) from teachers, students and lovers of English language and literature.

If you are a teacher:

Please provide notes, create audio or video lectures on the syllabus you have to cover/ have covered and share them with us via email.

If you are a student:

Share via email whatever materials you have received related to your BA, MA or MPhil syllabus during the Coronavirus lock down. Also, inform us about your requirements.

Let us fight this pandemic together. Join hands for a noble cause. 

Be a volunteer. Everyone who assists AIFEST in this fight for humanity will be provided free lifetime membership to AIFEST and access to all its resources and services. 

Thanks and regards,
