Proliferation of ICT in Education – Major Govt. Initiatives - Challenges Dr. B. K. Murthy Director & Head National Knowledge Network Division Ministry of Communications and IT Govt. of India Presentation at Nagpur, 11 th June, 2011

2 Key Factors of Knowledge Economy Govt. role is to act as a catalyst

3 Challenges: Digital Students By age 21, the average college student would have spent: 10,000 hours video games 200,000 s 20,000 hours TV 10,000 hours cell phone 10,000 hours of PC/Internet usage Under 5,000 hours reading

Challenges for Technology Countrywide classrooms? Various Tools & Technologies Sharing of Educational resources on the Grid/Cloud Various Gadgets High end Workstations to low cost access devices Content for all: Multimodal, Multilingual, locale specific, Just-in-time Creation of Closed User Groups: Online Collaborative Research Open Source Drug Discovery/Design/Engg. Network protocols to support various gadgets Knowledge Centers to Host various portals Network Security/QoS to cater to all types of traffic s/chatting/lectures/telemedicine/VC/e-Gov. etc. on the same Backbone??

5 Challenges – Social The challenge of numbers/Scalability The challenge of Quality The challenge of access/Reliability The Challenge of Sustainability/affordability The Challenge of Inclusiveness The challenge of course management Guiding a student through a curriculum Tapping the right content from the right source But the most important of all…….. The challenge of the mind-set !!!

ICT in Education: Role of MCIT/DIT Initiate Pilots in frontier areas before the formal system responds Courses on Microprocessor in late 70s UG/PG Courses in ICT in early 80s Establishment of ERNET, CDAC, DOEACC in late 80s Language Computing/Learning Material Development in Emerging Technologies in early 90s E-learning activities: Courseware for MS (BITS Pilani), ADIT of IGNOU etc. in late 90s Currently UG/PG Courses on VLSI Design/Embedded Systems Design/Information Security Technology Innovation Promotion Being initiated and nurtured till the formal system takes over and now establishment of National Knowledge Network

7 ICT in Education: Major Govt. Initiatives Department of IT, Ministry of Comm. & IT Establishment of National Knowledge Network National Skill Development Initiative Ministry of HRD National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) About 400 courses (40 hours each) in Engineering & Technology developed by faculties of IITs/IISc and available for free Usage by Tier II and Tier III colleges National Mission on Education Through ICT

8 National Knowledge Network To interconnect all Institutions of higher learning and Research for knowledge sharing and collaborative Research across the country with a high speed data communication network. Objective To build a scalable network, which can expand both in the geographical coverage and Speed. To be a common Network Backbone like national highway, wherein different categories of users shall be supported. Design Philosophy

Distribution EDGE 9 Features of the NKN Network consists of an ultra-high speed Core ~10Gbps & ~ 1500 nodes. A distribution layer at appropriate speeds. The participating institutions can directly connect to the NKN at speeds between 100Mbps to 1 Gbps connect to the distribution layer through a last mile connectivity bandwidth (Edge nodes).

10 NKN Educational Institutions Research Labs CSIR/DAE/ISRO/ICAR INTERNET Connections to Global Networks (e.g. GEANT) EDUSAT MPLS Clouds Broad Band Clouds National / State Data Centers National Internet Exchange Points (NIXI) Cert-IN

To create CORE for NKN Final Phase at the earliest. Backbone 2.5G to begin with soon 10G This provides the required redundancy and availability of NKN CORE. Gateways at Mumbai & Chennai apart from Delhi Hyderabad Complete rollout in 2-3 yrs Implementation by NIC

12 Current Status 20 PoPs were set up across the country 200+ Institutions of Higher Learning were connected Virtual Class Rooms in 26 IITs, ISERs Inaugurated by the Hon’ble President of India on April 9, 2009 Final Phase: PoPs, 600+ secondary PoPs, 1500 core institutions (400+ universities, R&D labs) to be connected Traffic from the affiliated colleges/centers/institutions are aggregated through MPLS-VPN to connect to NKN

13 National Mission on Education through ICT Vision Catering to the learning needs and providing a one stop solution to all the requirements of the learning community. Objectives Development of knowledge modules & the right content Research in the field of pedagogy Standardization and quality assurance of content Spreading digital literacy for teacher empowerment Providing support for the creation of virtual technological universities;

Connectivity at Institution Level 20,000 Colleges, each with 20 BB VPN connections High Speed LANs in Universities each having 400 nodes Connectivity ~ 1Gbps to universities NMEICT-NKN Interconnection, 1GB each about Locations Internet connectivity to BSNL VPN cloud.

18 Schools Scheme of MHRD launched in 2004 and now Revised in 2010 Coverage: All Govt./Govt. aided Higher Secondary/Secondary schools Target is to cover about 100,000 schools by 2012 Objectives: Establish enabling environment to promote usage of ICT in an inclusive manner Providing infrastructure & connectivity Promote development and dissemination of e- content in regional language To promote ICT tools for distance education

19 National Skill Development Initiative Government of India has approved the ‘Coordinated Action of Skill Development’: Three tier structure set up: Prime Minister ’ s National Council on Skill Development National Skill Development Coordination Board National Skill Development Corporation National Skill Development Policy announced To create a pool of 500 million trained persons by the year DITs Target in NSDI is 10 million in ICT by million IT literates by 2022

Through a 3 pronged strategy:  Scaling up of capacities of DOEACC Society to train 1 crore persons by To cover the entire spectrum of Training & Education starting from certificate level to Doctoral level (both Formal as well Non-Formal)  Scaling up of capacities of CDAC to train ~ 7 lakh persons by High end courses, close to Industry needs, quick cycle time for introduction of New Courses to meet emerging needs  Financial Assistance to States/UTs for setting up of ICT Academies in each State/UTs - To ensure quality faculty who are current with the latest development in IECT sector DIT ’ s Initiatives for Skill Development in IECT
