India's First Indigenous Moocs Platform To Be Launched Soon

Union Human Resource Development (HRD) Minister Smriti Irani has said the government will unveil India’s first indigenous MOOCs (Massive Open Online Course) platform which seeks to give free of cost education in conjunction with institutions like IITs, IIMs, Central Universities NIOS and boards like CBSE”. 

The draft of the new education policy will be submitted by the TSR Subramaniam Committee soon, Union Minister for Human Resource Development Smriti Irani said on Tuesday.

“We have received suggestions from people living in 1.10 lakh villages and over 1,500 municipal bodies ... we have prepared a document with the help of expert team, including advice by education councils, to improve the education system. It will be unveiled in 15-20 days," Irani said in an interview to All India Radio on Monday. 

She also said it is for the first time that a ”National Education Policy” was being prepared after consulting people living in villages and far-flung areas.

She also added that her government is taking RTE (Right to Education) passed by the earlier UPA government towards its real objective. "The previous government got passed the RTE but failed to make any provision for fees of 25 per cent students whom they have provided seat reservation in private schools. We made the required arrangements and have paid for the education of 18 lakh students after checking their records through state governments," she said.

She also added that her ministry has readied a Cabinet note for upgrading Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad to an IIT.

Crediting Prime Minister Narendra Modi for all these efforts, she said the human resource development (HRD) ministry has digitised National Council of Educational Research (NCER) and Training books from Class 9 to 12. All these books will be available at free of cost in English, Hindi and Urdu through a mobile app," HRD minister said. 

She will launch a web portal - Bharatvani - shortly on several subjects ranging from teaching to learning in 22 Indian languages. For this, HRD minister invited industry leaders to become partner in these institutes. The HRD minister has said various foreign universities are collaborating with Indian Institutes under the UGC (University Grant Commission) so that Indian students can get the best of education easily at home. 

She said these universities will not be used for political purpose and remain temples of learning.
