Development of e- resources for the school and Teacher Education curriculum

Development Program

Digital resources have been proved to benefit students, teachers and teacher educators in various ways. As per the vision of NEP, 2020, learning through visualization can be achieved as these e-resources helps students in visualizing the concepts. Similarly it also assists teachers to improve the teaching methodology and provide a better learning environment for students to construct their own knowledge. The main challenge lies in the availability of these e-resources customized to the need of the teacher and student. Keeping this in mind, PM e-vidya Channel has been launched to provide free access to e-resources to every stakeholder of education system. Government of India initiated a program called SWAYAM in effort to take the best teaching learning resources to all, including the most disadvantaged. SWAYAM seeks to bridge the digital divide for students who have hitherto remained untouched by the digital revolution and have not been able to join the mainstream of the knowledge economy. The e-content to be developed in the programme will be utilized on the SWAYAM platform. The NCERT has established studio setup at every Regional Institute of Education (RIE) in addition to the Studios available at Central Institute of Educational Technology (CIET). Faculty and students can be effectively involved in utilising these facilities to develop e-resources. The participation of students will also enable them to develop skill sets which will help them in their teaching careers. These studios can also be a resource point for the states to produce e-resources. This programme is proposed to utilise the studios for producing e-resources that can be shared on PM e-vidya Channel /SWAYAM/ SWAYAM PRABHA platform which serves the need of the hour. The facility will also be utilised during various in-service training programmes organised for state personnel.
