No live Students Database and advance following.  We need to comprehend what quality training and instruction frameworks are about in the setting ICT. Joining and Quality Education

E-Learning – From converses with activity Aug. 2008 at IIT Guwahati, Dr. Manmohan Singh said "We are one of the most youthful countries and, as per spectators, India can possibly make more than 500 million prepared individuals by 2022 which is over a fourth of the worldwide workforce. The huge open door for India would originate from an instruction upheaval that we should attempt as our most imperative national attempt." The World of Education is experiencing a quick and calm change: How would we in India exploit this and combine another system of giving  Challenge: How would we send and utilize e-Learning, open up quality training to boundless quantities of understudies?

SAD STATE OF OUR Education (higher/tertiary) diminished to showing classes against Board/college exams. No readiness in syllabus and understudies are "modified" like Artificial Intelligence Systems to "reply" questions! College instruction no longer LEARNING CENTRIC . Understudies coached for "devised" college examinations. Go for securing high pass rates, not advancing learning and grant. Great instructors have little say. "Instructing" to plan studnts for exams expels instructor from drawing in understudies in Learning Activities Education not associated with advancements – be they in the logical or financial sense.  India's Int'l Math Olympiad rank tumbled from 25 th in 2007 to 31 st in 2008. China is 1 st , South Korea 2 nd ��  Why?

IGNOU's Vision for Education " QUALITY EDUCATION TO ALL, INDEPENDENT OF GEOGRAPHY." "ENABLE, EDUCATE AND EMPOWER EVERY CITIZEN AND COMMUNITY THROUGH KNOWLEDGE." above all interface instruction to group strengthening and advancements – financial, advancing qualities and grant. How would we guarantee our framework conveys QUALITY EDUCATION? How would we utilize every single accessible method of coming to and connecting with learners in the course to give an all encompassing instruction in each subject offered by IGNOU. Expand on IGNOU's center qualities and the duties given to it under the Parliament Act. IGNOU working with NPTEL, foundations and associations and in national projects of various types .

Education To Exploit Wide Varieties Of Technologies For more than 10(20?) years we discuss e-learning. A lot of Technology: Laptops and Netbooks, High top thumb drives, IP-TV, iPods, iPhones, GPRS, 3G, Broadband, Satellite, Virtualization, Green IT, and so on. Entire universe of new Internet administrations/applications: Google & constantly enhancing web search tools, Open Source frameworks, LMS, SCIENTIFIC DATABASES , Open Content, Open Access Publishing, ebooks, … Google's Slogan: "My other PC is a Datacentre ". Expanding scope and Affordability.  How we proceed from CONNECTIVITY & CONTENT to formal frameworks of Tech Assisted Learning, Teaching And Evaluation (TELTE)? ��  Quality Assured Instruction.

Leverage on Core Strengths of IGNOU rehearses a hearty arrangement of producing printed Self Learning Materials (SLMs) for the learners. SLMs are instructively organized, wrote by specialists. IGNOU's SLMs in different courses are universally regarded furthermore utilized as a part of a few open separation training programs keep running by the state open colleges and others. Territorial Centers of IGNOU give basic coordinations support to Study Centers and supporting them for directing the contact classes and examinations.  IGNOU now confronts the test of overhauling the above framework and its best practices in the Internet time.
