Event Introduction
- PM e-Vidya is a comprehensive initiative as a part of Aatma Nirbhar Programme, which unifies efforts related to digital/ on-air education to enable coherent multi-mode access to education. It provides multi-modal learning access to students, teachers, parents, ensuring inclusion to overcome digital divide. The initiative will fulfill our vision of making India a great hub of digital learning by addressing digital divide, enabling equitable learning.
- In this regard, the National Education Policy (2020) recognizes the importance of leveraging the advantages of technology while acknowledging its potential risks and dangers. It calls for carefully designed and appropriately scaled pilot studies to determine how the benefits of online/digital education can be reaped while addressing or mitigating the downsides.
- In the meantime, the existing digital platforms and ongoing ICT-based educational initiatives must be optimized and expanded to meet the current and future challenges in providing quality education for all. However, the benefits of
- online/digital education cannot be leveraged unless the digital divide is eliminated through concerted efforts, such as the Digital India campaign and the availability of affordable computing devices Aside from changes required in pedagogy,
- online assessments also require a different approach.
- Keeping in this view, The Indian Institute of Teacher Education organizing ICSSR sponsored Two-Day National Seminar on One Year Implementation of PM e-Vidya for Ensuring Equitable Education: Issues, Challenges and Concerns.
