International Symposium on “Flexible Models for SkillDevelopment”

Jointly organised by the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) and Open

Polytechnic of New Zealand, an International Symposium on “Flexible Models

for Skill Development” was held on 17th October, 2012 at the India Habitat

Centre, New Delhi.

Welcoming the participants, Dr. S.S.

Jena, Chairman, NIOS said that this

workshop would focus on the

development of flexible models of skills

development and an innovative

system of skil l training with an

objective of reaching out to a huge

workforce and to fulfill the Government

of India’s skil l development

programme. This, he said would also

enable in integrating the objectives of

NIOS with that of the National

Vocational Education Qualification

Framework (NVEQF).

Sri Kapil Sibal, Hon’ble Minister for

Human Resource Development, GOI

pointed out the enormous potential

of the work force in India which was

growing at a rate of 1.7% annually.

However, with a capacity for vocational

training limited to just 3 million via-a-vis the annual need of about 10 million, the

challenge is to bridge this gap by providing the required skill base. He added

that imparting these skills should include an element of continuum giving students

theability to learn and unlearn making the system flexible. Speaking on the

importance of vocationalisation of education starting from the school stage,

Smt. (Dr) D. Purandeswari, Hon’ble Minister of State, Ministry of Human Resource

Development, Govt. of India, said that there is an urgent need for innovation

which is student-centric and learner-centric. Vocational institutions facing these

challenges with changing technologies should meet this need to provide a

system of certification empowering individuals to contribute to the national

economy. She hoped that this one day symposium will come out with strategies

to meet the diverse needs of manpower by 2020.

Sri R. Bhattacharya, Secretary, School Education & Literacy, MHRD, Govt. of

India explained the NVEQF which organizes qualifications according to a series

of knowledge and skill, ensuring parity of esteem between academic and

vocational education, thereby promoting inclusive growth. The NIOS with its

inbuilt flexibilities will play a significant role in this direction.

Addressing the gathering, Mr. Steven Joyce, Hon’ble Minister for Tertiary

Education, Skills & Employment, New Zealand expressed hope that this

symposium will provide a tangible opportunity for learning through collaboration,

keeping in view the massive challenge of providing skills to 500 million people

in India by 2022 and the long tradition of innovation in the field of vocational

education possessed by New Zealand.

Sri Doug Standring, Executive Director, Marketing and Communication, Open

Polytechnic of New Zealand proposed a vote of thanks.

National Consultative Workshop on Virtual Open Schoolingin India

A National Consultative Workshop on Virtual Open Schooling in India was

organized on 16 October 2012 by the National Institute of Open Schooling

(NIOS), NOIDA in collaboration with the Commonwealth Educational Media

Centre for Asia (CEMCA), New Delhi at the India Habitat Centre, Lodhi Road,

New Delhi.

Welcoming the participants, Dr. Sanyam Bhardwaj, Director (Student Support

Services), NIOS hoped that this workshop would enable the creation of a

roadmap on Virtual Open Schooling.

Delivering the inaugural address, Ms.

Radha Chauhan, Joint Secretary,

School Education, Ministry of Human

Resource Development, Government

of India congratulated the NIOS and

CEMCA for embarking on this great

journey of setting up Virtual Open

Schooling in India. With a huge target

of setting up 20,000 schools for

learners in the age group of 14-16

years, in the XIIth Five Year Plan and

the physical constraints of putting up

such schools to enable access, she

hoped that Virtual Open Schooling

would offer a significant solution in

terms of access, gender and equity.

Explaining the importance of ICT as

an enabler which will provide relevant

tools on a virtual platform, Ms.

Chauhan also pointed out the huge

challenge of developing and

delivering e-content vis-a vis the

common belief that a teacher cannot

be replaced. She, however urged the

NIOS to take up this task on a priority basis by woking out the strategies to be

adopted to meet the goal of Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA)

Earlier, Dr. S. S. Jena, Chairman, NIOS, in his introductory remarks said that

this was a first of its kind workshop in India, which was organized keeping in

view the huge target of 97 mill ion learners in the age group of

14-18 years who would be eligible for Secondary Education. “Virtual Open

Schooling is a significant concept in many parts of the world which could be

utilized to create an alternate model of education for such a group of learners”,

he said. Dr. Jena hoped that this workshop would develop a consortium approach

to Virtual Open Schooling in India in consultation with State open Schools, by

utilizing the available resources including ICT. These issues will be discussed to

be relevantly integrated with the Government of India’s RMSA.

Addressing the gathering, Dr. Sanjaya Mishra, Director, Commonwealth

Educational Media Centre for Asia (CEMCA), New Delhi explained that ICT

would be used to leverage the existing Open Schooling structure that exists in

the country in the form of the National Consortium for Open Schooling (NCOS),

thereby integrating the concept of Virtual Open Schooling and making it more

effective and efficient. This would help learners to enroll for courses from any

system thereby enabling Transfer of Credit and Certification from a system of

their choice. To formalize the process of developing Virtual Open Schooling in

India, an MOU was signed between NIOS and CEMCA by Sh. U.N. Khaware,

Secretary, NIOS and Dr. Sanjaya Mishra, Director, CEMCA being the respective

signatories.

Sh. U.N. Khaware, Secretary, NIOS proposed a vote of thanks.

OPEN SCHOOLING FOR AFGHANISTAN

A delegation led by H.E Farook Wardhak, Minister of Education, Islamic Republic

of Afghanistan visited the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) on

12th September 2012 to study the feasibility of establishing a credible Open

Distance Learning (ODL) system with a view to facilitate school education in

Afghanistan. Speaking on the occasion, Sri. Wardhak expressed his gratitude

for the support extended by India for rehabilitation of Afghanistan, especially,

its education system. Pointing out the massive challenge of providing “Education

for All” by 2015 with 40% of its population out of school, he emphasized on the

need for Afghanistan to make use of the potentialities & advantages of the

Open schooling as a major step in this direction.

Dr. S.S. Jena, Chairman, NIOS, while presenting a feasibility report for setting

up an Open School in Afghanistan elaborated the disadvantages such as its

difficult terrain, harsh climate etc., which stood in the way of the educational

development of the 42nd most populated country with a rural population of

76.18% and an adult literacy rate of only 26%. About 5 million children in the

school-going age are not in school with a large number of girls dropping out,

due to various reasons such as climatic condition, limited access for rural areas,

lack of female teachers etc.

Dr. Jena proposed that the inherent characteristics of open schooling would be

feasible for such a situation that exists in Afghanistan with an Accelerated

Learning Programme in General Education for youths in the 13-25 yrs. as the

priority target group. Open Schooling, he said, may be launched on a pilot

basis in a few provinces of Afghanistan having the priority target group along

with mentoring support from a well established institution such as the NIOS.

Earlier, Dr. Sanyam Bharadwaj, Director (Student Support Services), NIOS

introduced the NIOS system of Open Schooling to the visiting team.

Sri U.N. Khaware, Secretary, NIOS proposed a vote of thanks.

FROM THE REGIONAL CENTRES ...

Bhubaneswar

September 12, 2012

In Commemmoration of Teacher's Day on September 5, 2012, the NIOS Regional

Centre, Bhubaneswar organised a series of events.

The celebrations began with a Blood Donation Camp in collaboration with Red

Cross Society of Bhubaneswar. The programme was inaugurated by

Mr. Rushi Kumar Rath, NIOS Regional Director. Over 40 learners along with

NIOS staff and facilitators enthusiastically participated in the camp. A capacity

Building workshop on HIV, Hepatitis Safe Blood Donation and Transfusion was

conducted before the donation. Keeping in view the acute shortage of safe

blood in Bhubaneswar Dr. Rakhal Chandra Behera, Blood Bank Official, Municipal

Hospital, Bhubaneswar sensitized the learners to various safety measures

observed during blood donation. Sensitizing the learners to the dangers of HIV

infection through the indiscriminate use of needles and blood transfusion the

workshop was helpful in empowering learners to donate and seek HIV and

Hepatitis safe blood. The camp resulted in collection of 26 units of blood. All the

participants felt it was their way of showing respect to their teachers who

dedicate their lives to educate the future of nation.

The next programme in the series was a Coordinators' Meet and Capacity

Building Workshop for ‘Effective Personal Contact Programme’ which was held

from 8-10th September 2012 in Bhubaneswar. Over 70 coordinators from all

over Odisha participated in this programme. The workshop was inaugurated by

Sh. Jagdananda, Information Commissioner, Odisha. Dr. S.S Jena, Chairman,

NIOS presided over the ceremony.

A Career Mela was organized for NIOS learners on 11-12th September 2012 in

which over forty learners from various districts of Odisha participated. ‘Inclusivity’

was the special feature of the mela where the handicapped learners participated

with equal interest and zeal. All the programmes were organized by Academic

Department of NIOS under the MHRD-UNFPA supported Adolescence Education

Programme.

Success Story

ANKITA PAYAL

Enrolment No: 150003103513

An inspiring tale!

With studies being hampered by ailments, Ankita Payal found

it difficult to continue education under formal schooling. Having

learnt about the NIOS from her cousin, Ankita enrolled for the

Senior Secondary course in the Bhubaneswar region. Aspiring

to join the Civil Services after completing her studies, Ankita

shared that the flexibilities offered by the NIOS in terms of its

Courses and On Demand Examination System (ODES) were

exceptional.

Ankita is a regular participant in various programmes conducted

by MITRA, the Adolescent Friendly Centre in the NIOS Regional Centre,

Bhubaneswar. She also participated in a national level creative writing

competition organized by United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). She

was one of the five shortlisted candidates out of one hundred and fifty nine

NIOS learners whose writing pieces were forwarded for the national

competition against students of CBSE, NVS and KVS from the entire country.

Ankita’s joy knew no bounds when she was informed that excerpts from her

writings had found a place in the UNFPA Desk Calendar. She felt that the

‘Creative Writing Clinic’ organized by MITRA helped her immensely in honing

her writing skills and urges others to come forward to use these facilities.

Ankita loves writing screenplays and direction. Listening to music and playing

computer games are what she likes to do in her leisure time. Besides her

studies, Ankita is also learning 3D Animation and direction.

The scope and environment provided by the NIOS has enabled Ankita to

showcase her talent, providing inspiration to many more !
