Teachers are typically responsible for helping students understand and apply concepts learned in lecture classes. This Teachers Enrichment workshop aims to provide the teachers, engaged in teaching the under graduate and post graduate students, with the knowledge that will be helpful in making the students understand the concepts in a more lucid way and applying them in solving applications based problems. The syllabus is designed to cover the curriculum of most of the undergraduate courses. It includes analysis, algebra and hands on the extensively used typing tool LaTeX.
