The key principles of practice that underpin the participatory pedagogy of the TESS-India OER are detailed in ten Key Resources.

The TESS-India School Leadership OER are designed to help school leaders develop their understanding and skills to improve the teaching and learning in their school. The OER are practical and include activities and reflections that should be carried out in school with staff, students and others. They are based on research and academic study of effective schools.
There is no prescribed order for studying the OER, but The elementary school leader as enabler or The secondary school leader as enabler (depending on which level of school you are a leader of) are the best place to start, as they provide background and orientation for the whole set. You will also find the OER on Leading improvements in teaching and learning in the elementary (or secondary) school provide an excellent guide as to how to introduce and use the teacher OER in your school to enable more student centred, participative practice.
The School Leadership OER are grouped in 'families' of units:
They can be used by school leaders for self-study or as part of a taught leadership programme. In either scenario, there are benefits to keeping a personal Learning Diary and sharing the learning experience with others by discussing the activities and case studies.
The term 'school leader' is used in these units to refer to the headteacher, principal or deputy teacher, or any individual taking leadership responsibility in a school (for example for a year group or subject).
There are also nine videos that focus on aspects of school leadership in Indian schools.
The
video resources complement the OER and show teachers using the principles of
practice in
a range of authentic Indian classrooms.
In this section you will find useful guidance and documents to help you use the OER with teachers.

The ten reference OER aim to improve classroom practice for teachers so that there will be active participation of students in class. They include:
Planning lesson, involve all, talk for learning, pair work,questioning,pushing students, monitoring, group work, assessment,use of local resources and story telling/songs/role play/drama.I believe hat if teachers use these resources judiciously, students and teachers will look forward to attending school.
