MANAGING ONLINE CLASSES AND CO-CREATING MOOCS
20 APRIL-06 MAY, 2020
The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) launched the Pandit

Madan Mohan Malaviya National Mission on Teachers and Teaching
(PMMMNMTT) in 2017. One of the main objectives of this mission is to
facilitate teacher training by constituting Teaching Learning Centers in
various institutions of higher education in our country. The Teaching
Learning Centers (TLCs) are mandated to promote on a continuous basis the
learning of new pedagogical practices, methodology of forming discipline-
specific curricula and creating new learning materials (including e-content)
for use by the teachers in colleges and postgraduate departments. It is
envisioned that the TLCs will accelerate the teaching-learning process by
encouraging independent critical and creative thinking and facilitating
research for subject-specific growth.
The TLCs will assist the faculty in capacity building for curriculum designing,
scientific assessment and evaluation and the development of innovative
academic programs to strengthen the inclusive nature of higher education.
The TLCs are also encouraged to reach out to teachers teaching in regionally
disadvantaged locations.
The Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya National Mission emphasizes the need to
change the role and workings of a teacher from a mere disseminator of
information and knowledge to the one who helps students to develop critical,
analytical skills, capabilities to generate information, the ability to reason
and to empower themselves through open sources and globally oriented
digitalized self-learning processes. The focus is not only on 'what is taught'
but also importantly, to 'the way it is taught,’ in an effort to develop and
enhance individual education, that will eventually go on to define the manner
in which the future generations will work and live.
The Teaching Learning Centers offer Faculty Induction Programs (FIPs) for
newly recruited faculty and Faculty Development Programs (FDPs) for
teachers with experience who wish to update their field of knowledge,
expertise and skill with the latest available research, resources and
technology. In the FDPs, special emphasis is given to inter and cross-
disciplinary methodologies of study.
Currently, the teaching fraternity is missing their lively and interactive

classrooms due to COVID-19 Pandemic. To address the present
situation, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has intensified its
efforts to have a strong virtual engagement with the students through
email/WhatsApp and hosting lectures using Google Class Room and
other video-conferencing platforms. Keeping in view the immense benefits
and reach of online courses in the present academic set-up, the Teaching
Learning Centre at Ramanujan College, University of Delhi plans to offer a
Two Week Faculty Development Programme on “Managing Online Classes
and Co-Creating MOOCs” for faculty members and research scholars of higher
education in the country from 20th April- 06th May, 2020.

CONCEPT NOTE
With the advent of technology, e-learning is rapidly gaining importance and

momentum. With the government aiming at digitizing India with its “Digital
India” Initiative, educational institutions are also working in tandem to help
fulfill the goal.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are rapidly gaining popularity not
only amongst students but also among faculty members because it helps
them in their professional development and also gives them the flexibility to
study as per their own convenience and time. Online courses serve as a
bridge between the teachers and the learners and fill the gap for the off-site
learners. It is a great initiative to provide blended learning for millions of
students and teachers across the globe. MOOCs create the opportunity for
sharing the ideas and knowledge and also helps improve lifelong learning
skills by providing easy access to global resources.
MOOCs have truly revamped the teaching pedagogy by using technology as a

tool to design the new pavement for academic growth. With this program,
the participants will be able to explore the usage of online courses for
learning, teaching and professional development and also build their
capability to plan, design and implement online courses that are in tune with
international standards. This will help them to manage their curriculum and
also in extending effective support to the students in terms of improved
learning and communication. In addition to this, MOOCs would also provide
analytics to improve learning. MOOCs also help in improving cross cultural
relationships which leads to collaboration between institution, educators and
learners locally and internationally.
