IGNOU does away with community college scheme

Almost a year after it decided to have a relook at the community college scheme, the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) on Wednesday decided to do away with the scheme completely based on non-performance of these colleges.

The university had close to 620 community colleges- catering to more than 80,000 students- of which 88 were deregistered two years ago because of non-performance.

The attack of the MOOCs

DOTCOM mania was slow in coming to higher education, but now it has the venerable industry firmly in its grip. Since the launch early last year of Udacity and Coursera, two Silicon Valley start-ups offering free education through MOOCs, massive open online courses, the ivory towers of academia have been shaken to their foundations. University brands built in some cases over centuries have been forced to contemplate the possibility that information technology will rapidly make their existing business model obsolete. Meanwhile, the MOOCs have multiplied in number, resources and student recruitment—without yet having figured out a business model of their own.

IGNOU has no authority to recognize regular colleges, rules HC

In a significant verdict, the Delhi High Court today ruled that Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has no "legal authority" either to set up or accord recognition to an institution or college to impart "face-to-face" regular education. IGNOU, set up in 1985 to promote distance education, was dragged to court by various institutions, including Hindustan Aviation Academy, which were first allowed by the University to run B Tech and Diploma programme courses in the area of Aerospace Engineering. However, IGNOU later noticed that its approval to run "face-to-face" programme did not not meet legal requirements and asked the approved institutes to keep the admission process at abeyance.

US-based MOOCs consortia in tie-ups with local universities for taking content online

For 29-year-old Anil Kumar, a business consultant at Cognizant Technology Solutions, an online course in 'gamification' fast-tracked his career, earning him a consulting project for his firm in the US. Kumar learnt the concept from Coursera, a social entrepreneurship firm partnering with 33 top universities in the world that offer courses online for anyone to take for free.

Seven IITs, Infosys, TCS, Cognizant and Nasscom team up to provide free online courses

MUMBAI: Seven leading IITs, Infosys, TCS, Cognizant  and industry lobby Nasscom are coming together to launch a bunch of free, online courses  that could potentially help 100,000-150,000 people a year get high-quality education and make them job-ready.

The courses will be offered using the model of massive open online courses (MOOCs), which is globally creating an upheaval in the world of higher education. The first three courses in computer science are expected to roll out this October.

UGC member protests against Commission’s 'misleading’ notice

NEW DELHI: University Grants Commission (UGC) member M M Ansari has protested against the Commission's public notice on courses offered by off campuses of universities as well as jurisdiction of varsities on the ground that its contents are "incorrect and misleading and therefore devoid of the spirit with which the UGC functions."

Love for the other language

Knowing a foreign Language not only boosts your future prospects, but provides a competitive edge over others as well.

In today's competitive world, there is an increasing need to know a foreign language besides your native language. Various institutes and universities are offering a number of courses in languages.

Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) offers Six months Certificate and One year Diploma programmes in foreign languages like Arabic, Urdu   French, German, Chinese besides communicative English . These courses are conducted part-time on weekends or online, and university examinations are conducted at the end of year

Knowing a foreign language is always an additional qualification. Most IT companies and MNCs today make it mandatory for their professionals to learn a foreign language to brighten their onsite prospects. "As long as IT industry and job outsourcing exists, the demand for learning a foreign language will only grow in the coming years.

A course in foreign language provides endless career opportunities in fields like translation and interpretation, teaching and tourism industry.

With foreign dignitaries often visiting the country, government organizations are always in need of translators and interpreters.

If you are planning to go abroad to specialise in your area of interest, you need to plan and choose the place that best suits your requirements

Higher education overseas still remains a fad amongst most Indian students, mainly because of the foreign tag or stamp that they will have in their bio-data after successful completion of their academic programmes.

Comments by Author :

The Main Reason behind all this is  unplanned increase in seats without proper infrastructure and most important the trained faculty, due to lack of trained and good faculty we are not able to provide quality education to learners thus, the pass-outs of these courses does'not have market acceptability making courses are no attractive and viable. We must create good teachers and provide quality education to make these courses industry oriented
