3.5 Diploma in Elementary Education (D.El.Ed)The RTE Act 2009 makes it mandatory to haveprofessionally qualified teachers in all schools at Elementarylevel. It was a huge task to make the in-service teachersprofessionally qualified through the existing teachereducation institution within the prescribed time limit i.eMarch 31, 2015. Accordingly, the untrained in-serviceteachers in the Govt./Govt. Aided/Unaided – PrivateSchools have been given last opportunity to acquire theDiploma in Elementary Education (D.El.Ed) by March 31,2019.Through a special act passed by the Parliament, Section 23(2) of the RTE Act was amended to extend the period ofsuch training of in-service teachers to March, 2019. Thebroad strategy to complete training of such untrained in-service teachers by March 31, 2019 has been devised byMHRD.The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) hasbeen identified by MHRD as the nodal agency for thetraining of these teachers.

The Diploma in Elementary Education Programmethrough Open and Distance Learning (ODL) mode has beendesigned and developed by NIOS and duly approved byNCTE for the untrained in-service teachers at theElementary level. It aims at preparing teachers to teachat the Elementary stage of education, that is, class I-VIII.A programme of such immense dimensions can besuccessfully conducted only with the active support andcoordination by the State Governments and their EducationDepartments. Each State Government has designated aSenior Officer as the Nodal Officer who actively contributedto the programme by identifying Study Centres andResource Persons in their states. Hence, the TeacherEducation Institutions like SCERT, IASE, CTE, DIET, BRC,CRC and, in exceptional cases, well equipped SeniorSecondary Schools have been accepted to be utilized asthe Study Centres where teacher educators andprofessionally qualified teachers are available.

The programme is of 64 credits and 750 study hours of twoyears duration. Ten theory courses have been developedhaving three to four Blocks in each as per the need anddemand of the context. The Booklets have been developedblock wise and have been supplied along with PCP, PracticalManual, Programme Guide and handbook on AcademicSupport System to each learner.

5.3.2 No Barriers in Education of Jail Inmates

Apart from affiliated schools, NIOS presently has StudyCentres (AAs, AIs, & AVIs) in Jails also. It was observed thatmore number of jail inmates wanted to join NIOS coursesbut because of their poor financial condition, they wereunable to do so. Accordingly, it was felt that if NIOS couldoffer the courses to jail inmates free of cost. It would enablethem to join NIOS courses for getting educated. Also, ifthey are provided quality education during their stay injails, it would certainly help them in earning their livelihoodand bringing them into the mainstream of society afterthey are released from jails.

Almost all jails in the country have taken reformative stepsto mainstream these disadvantaged groups. It is in thiscontext that NIOS thought to take proactive action tofacilitate education of jail inmates. The following facilitiesto jail inmates were provided:

➤ No fee for Accreditation of Jails as Study Centres ofNIOS.

➤ No fee for registration of Jail inmates for NIOScourses.

➤ No fee for Transfer of Credit from other Boards.

➤ No examination fee.

➤ Free of cost study material.

➤ Examinations to be conducted in jails.

➤ Facilities would be extended to the Jail inmates evenafter their term in jails is completed.

The position of Study Centres of NIOS in Jails in the countryis given in Table 5.3.

Educational Corps (AEC) Integrated Headquarters of theMinistry of Defence (Army), whereby NIOS and the IndianArmy undertaken a Joint Project known as NIOS EducationProject for Indian Army (NEPIA), through HumanResource Development Centres (HRDCs) at its HQCommands/Corps/ Divisions/Areas/ Brigades/ Sub-Areas.

This collaboration will help to upgrade the educationalqualifications and Human Resource Quotient of the IndianArmy Troops along with development of relevantknowledge, skills and values, enabling them to serve theIndian Army more efficiently. It would also help in enablingthe Indian Army Troops to serve the society at large bybecoming better equipped to seek employment afterretirement through improved exit level qualification.

In order to execute the MoU , NIOS granted Accreditationto 101 Army Education Centres as NEPIA AIs. These NEPIAAIs have been established under 6 Army CommandHeadquarters.

5.4 Access through On-line AdmissionsThe On line admission system was introduced by NIOS forall the streams of admission. This has provided 24×7admission facility to learners. Also, the admission systemhas been made available globally.

The salient features of On-line admission are as follows:

➤ Faster and Simpler Admission: Direct access to NIOS.

➤ Choice of Study Centre: Freedom to select StudyCentre of one’s choice.

➤ Admission Open 24x7: Admission open round the yearfor learners.

➤ Better support services: Direct interaction oflearners with NIOS, faster redressal of problems.

➤ Easy Payment: Payment of fee on-line through CreditCard or by Bank Draft.

In addition to on-line admission, the existing practice ofadmission through Accredited Institutions (AIs) continued.It has now been rechristened as ‘Off-line admissions’. Theoff-line facility of admission is for those learners who arenot able to access the web of NIOS and who belong toremote areas of the country. All the Regional Centres ofNIOS and Study Centres accept the Forms of Admissionunder Stream-I through off-line mode within the prescribeddates. These Forms are then converted into online by theStudy Centres or by the Regional Centres.

For better support services of the learners and also with aview to reach the unreached, an MoU was signed betweenNIOS and the Common Service Centre (CSC), Ministry of IT,Govt. of India. Now more than one lakh CSCs FacilitationCentres will provide on-line services of NIOS tolearners. Tables 5.4 to 5.14 depict various data related toadmission :

5.7.2 Educational Initiatives for Minorities

It may be mentioned that access, equity and quality arehallmarks of NIOS programmes and activities. This concernis reflected in all the courses/programmes offered by NIOS.Although the courses/programmes of NIOS are meant forall sections of the society, yet its prioritized (disadvantaged)client groups include Scheduled Castes (SCs), ScheduledTribes (STs), Minorities (Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jain,Buddhists), girls and women, differently abled, people livingin difficult contexts, ex-servicemen etc.

5.7.3 Special Relaxations for Minority Communities byNIOS

With a view to provide quality modern education to Muslims(Minority), several exemptions have been given by NIOSfor the purpose of accreditation to Madarsas. Some of themajor relaxations are as follows:-

NIOS has exempted Madrasas and Maktabs from payingaccreditation fee and relaxed the norms for accreditationvide circular No. NIOS/SECY/SSS/2010 dated 12.04.2010.

To operationalize the SPQEM scheme, a circular vide No.NIOS/Secy/57th EB/2010 dated 30.11.2010 was issuedgiving full exemption of fees to Muslim students enrolledthrough Madrasas in the NIOS courses.

Norms for Accreditation for Minority institutions have beenrelaxed.

In the Inspection Committee for Madarasa, one expertfrom the Minority community is appointed.

Under the SPQEM scheme, Madrsas/Maktabs/Darul-uloom can opt to become accredited study centres of NIOSfor offering the Secondary and the Senior Secondary levelprogrammes. The Madarsas which have been in existencefor at least three years and registered under the Centralor the State Government’s Acts or Madrasas Board or withWakf Boards or NIOS shall be eligible to apply for assistanceunder this programme. As there are only 8 Madarsa Boards,hence to extend the facility to the Madrsas of the otherstates where Madarasa Boards do not exist, the Madrasaaccorded Minority status by the NCMEI are also consideredfor accreditation as per the decision taken in the meetingof Grant-in Aid Committee.

The Urdu medium is made available for betterunderstanding.

The NIOS Prospectus is printed in Urdu also for bettercommunication of instructions.

The details of the Minority Cell are made available on theNIOS website. This section also contains all vital informationabout accreditation status, Frequently Asked Questionsetc.

All important advertisements and notices are published inthe Urdu News Papers.

Status of accreditation has been hosted on the website ofNIOS for latest updation to the applicant Institutions/Madrasa.

Frequently Asked Questions have been hosted on websitefor candidates and Institutions.

Even after the above decision as more such institutions arenot able to join the scheme, hence the following was alsoapproved by the Executive Board of NIOS.

For Academic Courses (X & XII) and Vocational Trades,following may also be included:-

(a) Madrsas / Darul Uloom having independent standingand offering Maulvi, Aazim and Fazil courses

(b) Having residential facilities.

(c) Having three year old Registered Society or Trust.

(d) Possessing minimum infrastructure to offer the NIOScourses (i.e., Labs, library etc.) as fixed by NIOS forminority institutions, except the desired number ofclass rooms which can be 50% of the norms for GeneralCategory Institutions.

(e) Its courses are recognized by other institutions ofhigher learning.

The above recommendation was placed before the52nd Meeting of the Finance Committee of NIOS and64th Meeting of the Executive Board of the NIOS.After the approval, a Notification No. F-24/NIOS/SSS-M.Cell/2013 was issued on 13.11.2013. TheseMadrasas have also been given full exemption frompayment of accreditation fee. The same has beenreimbursed by MHRD.Looking into the time taken in the conversion ofOffline Forms as applicable in the case of the learnersof Madarsa and thus probable delay in supply of thestudy material, NIOS has decided to supply the studymaterial to such learners through their Madrasaswith the direction to hand over the study material toregistered learners. This will avoid delay in supply ofthe study material and students of the Madrasas willprovided them ample time to study the material,thus improving their certification rate. A Notification26.3/NIOS/SSS/PA dated 24.12.2013 has been issuedin this regard.Equivalency to the following courses of five MadrasaBoards has been granted. These courses of theMadrasa Boards will now be treated equivalent tothe Secondary and the Senior Secondary Certificatesof NIOS.

Evaluation and Assessment

6.0 Introduction

Evaluation and Assessment is an integral component ofteaching-learning system. The Government of India in 1990vested NIOS with the authority to examine and certify learnersupto pre-degree level, and the NIOS became one of theNational Boards of Examination. It is the only Board whichconducts two Public Examinations every year. The NIOS hasbeen conducting Public Examinations since 1991. In order tomeasure learner’s achievement and evaluate theperformance it has so far conducted 56 Public Examinationsupto the year 2017-18.

6.1 Unique Features of the NIOS ExaminationSystem

➤ The NIOS does not have any infrastructure of itsown. It shares the infrastructure and humanresources with the co-operation of the institutionsestablished by the public and private sector toconduct the examinations without disturbing theiracademic schedule.

➤ The NIOS provides a lot of flexibility to the learners inissues related to examination such as (no compulsionof appearing in all the subjects at the sameexamination) appearing in one or more subjects inthe examination as per the convenience of thelearner, credit accumulation of the passed subjects,nine chances to appear in the Public Examinations overa period of five years, and transfer of credit of twosubjects passed from other Selected Boards and uptofour subjects in the case of ex-NIOS learners.

➤ A learner is allowed to write answers in theexamination in any of the scheduled languages of Indiaexcept language papers even if he/she has not optedfor that medium. The NIOS issues only one answerbook containing 28 pages till October, 2017 PublicExamination and 32 pages with one OMR Sheet w.e.fMarch- April 2018, Public Examination to theexaminee to complete all the answers of a particularsubject in the answer book itself. There is no provisionto issue any additional answer sheet or continuoussheet to the learner during the conduct ofexaminations.

➤ A learner can appear in ‘On Demand Examination’at Secondary and Senior Secondary level

For printing of study materials during 2017-18, NIOS usedprinting paper of 70 GSM and 80 GSM of 23" × 36" size.NIOS procured printing paper for texts from DGS&D Govt.of India. Whereas for printing of Covers of NIOSPublications, 220 GSM Art Card was procured by OpenTender by the Purchase Unit under the AdministrationDepartment as per GFR 2005. All these steps have enhancedthe print quality of NIOS Self Instructional Materials andother publications to a great extent. NIOS is planning toincrease grammage of paper being procured for betterresults for printing its publications (as lower grammagelacks strength and affect print quality and result).

At present, NIOS uses 80 GSM Printing Paper for printingof the Secondary course materials and 70 GSM for printingof single and two colour materials of the Senior Secondarycourses and the Vocational Education Courses. This paperis being manufactured from recycled pulp. However, 220GSM Art Card of 24"×37" size is used for printing of coversof NIOS publications.

7.4.1 How printing of course materials in four coloursbenefited NIOS learners:

➤ Grabs attention faster : NIOS publications are beingnoticed faster, and use of vivid colours has capturedmore attention of learners than the plain black andwhite images.

➤ Consistent quality : Four colour printing uses an offsetpress to provide best possible results for transferringthe image on paper with good print quality standards.This has further promoted reading among learnersand made the content more interesting and eye-catching.

➤ Works best for images : Colour photos donethrough this process create livelier and more vibrantoutputs.

These steps have increased readership and informationretention among learners. Use of four colours has increasedreadership by 40% or more. Similarly, 65% increase isindicated in the retention of materials when these areprinted in four colours vis-a-vis black and white.

NIOS prints learning materials of different subjects andcourses in several mediums. Majority of the subjects have1 or 2 to 3 volumes/parts. During the year 2017-18, NIOSprinted lakhs of copies of books of different subjects ofSecondary, Senior Secondary and Vocational Educationcourses, etc. At the Secondary level, study materials inHindi, English, Telugu, Marathi, Malayalam, Gujarati,Tamil, Urdu and Odiya were printed whereas at the SeniorSecondary level, course materials in different subjects
