VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI MOU Chairman BOG FGIET Director IIT Kanpur MOU for faculty development has also been signed by the Chairman BOG FGIET and Director IIT Kanpur on 21st August 2007, to provide online lectures on specialised topics and exchanging our staff to deliver lecture and get training in the area of importance.

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI CDEEP Work done in distance education, past and present. What is CDEEP?

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI CENTRE FOR DISTANCE ENGINEERING EDUCATION PROGRAMME Formed to disseminate IIT Bombay's courses (live and recorded) to Students/faculty of colleges Working professionals CDEEP has been transmitting live IIT Bombay's courses for close to a decade

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI NATIONAL MISSION ON EDUCATION THROUGH ICT Goals and rules for participation IIT's role

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI How good are the courses that the CDEEP Transmit?  IIT Bombay's own courses: same high quality, as dictated by its senate  Fixed schedule  Free  Value added services, at a nominal cost

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI VALUE ADDED SERVICES FOR THE COLLEGE STUDENTS  Meant for colleges that want to use a transmitted course as a substitute for theirs  Entails access to learning management system through web  Slides, assignments, tutorials, exam questions and their solutions  Colleges can synchronize their exams with IIT's, grade the papers with IIT professor given model answers

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI Discussion forum: One student posts a question, second one answers, third one gives another answer, fourth one challenges, teaching assistants resolve - when discussion goes in the wrong direction, course instructor sets it right - thus interaction is scalable Whole nation can become a large classroom! At present money can be returned to the college - through funding from the National Mission on Education VALUE ADDED SERVICES FOR THE COLLEGE STUDENTS

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI WILL THIS MAKE COLLEGE TEACHERS REDUNDANT? No, the college teachers will become even more important, to be explained next

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI WILL THIS MAKE COLLEGE TEACHERS REDUNDANT? The virtual laboratory should consist of three components: 1. Basic infrastructure at each remote centre. 2. Content delivery for teacher training at each remote centre (through the CDEEP facility at IIT Bombay). 3. Content delivery for student training at each remote centre

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI COURSES ASSOCIATE (CA) AT THE REMOTE CENTRE  Every value added course shall have a CA at every RC  CA has to teach necessary background material and make the lectures understandable to the local students - on a continual basis  Optionally, using IIT's material, conduct tutorials and other help sessions  Optionally, using IIT's exam paper, organise exams  Optionally, using IIT's solution to the exam, evaluate the Students.

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI  Students and grade them  Organize interactions with IIT faculty  When available, Organize labs  Use these lecture materials and handle the courses independently in the future semesters - teacher training COURSES ASSOCIATE (CA) AT THE REMOTE CENTRE

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI VALUE ADDED COURSE FOR PROFESSIONALS Solo classroom Available through web cast; learning management system (LMS) No grading, no certification Graded courses - grading by remote centers LMS; using IIT's question paper and solution, remote centers grade the exam papers and gives grades Valuable, if from a well known remote centre - many remote centers are local colleges Graded courses - grading by IIT

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF DISTANCE EDUCATION?  Excellent course content - from reliable instructors  If from an unknown source in the web, the authenticity is often a question mark IIT \method" of education transmitted, for example, Mistakes - It is ok to make mistakes Jokes - No need to be serious all the time  Outside students get to see the extent of work done by IIT instructors, punctuality, delivering all lectures, etc.

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF DISTANCE EDUCATION?  Extent of work done by IIT students also is seen  Teaching methodology is as important as content itself  Archival of courses of good instructors before they retire

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI Incentives for Faculty  Certification of copyright permission  Quality of slides  Additional instructional material  Use of open source software

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI SUMMARY OF THE OBJECTIVES OF DISTANCE EDUCATION Dissemination of knowledge Dissemination of knowledge  Dissemination of IIT Bombay's teaching methodologies  Teacher training  Continuing education to working professionals  Archival of IIT's courses and methodologies  Enhance course delivery methodologies for IIT's own students

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI CONCLUSION The excellent educational methodology created by IITs should be used to improve the level of education in the country  T TT The curriculum developed by the IITs will also help in this regard  Experience learnt through distance education can be used to build the education grid and remote learning

VLSI DESIGN FEROZE GANDHI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, RAEBARELI  This method, coupled with structural changes, will result in the quality of students from all engineering colleges going up.  India will become a hub of education for the entire world  This will be a growth engine for Indian industry  Higher quality of engineers will also result in better inputs for R&D institutions, improving the levels of research as well CONCLUSION
