Contextualisation of Tools: Modifications

• T.1. “Job market” instead of “Labor market” • T.3 “Learning Capabilities” in place of

“Competencies”• Pop ups & clarifications suggested at many places

Relevance and Responsiveness• Articulated in the Constitution, Five Year

Plans, Policy Documents- NPE, NCF, SCF-2007 in MP etc.

• Infrastructure-Human & Physical-insufficient• Vocational courses lack vertical mobility• Mind set attached with White Collar and

Blue collar jobs• National Vocational Education Qualification

Framework (NVEQF) being piloted in few states

Page 10: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Equity and Inclusion

• Act, Policies and schemes are in place- RCI, PWD, RTE etc.

• Incentives for various groups-Reservations, Schools, Hostels, Mid Day Meals, Scholarships, facilities for CWSN, etc.

• Challenges--cognitive and socio-cultural inclusion, improving infrastructure, qualification & training of teachers

Learning Capabilities• Policies and Curricular documents have

elaborated learning capabilities• Competency matrix-class-wise, stage-wise

developed in MP• Administrators, teacher educators, teachers

lack adequate understanding of curricular philosophy and concomitant practices

• Resources, training for all concerned need to be strengthened

• Communication and ICT skills needs to be developed along with other capabilities

Page 12: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Lifelong Learners• Policies and curricula encourage learners

towards this goal• Regular update/ upgrade programmes in the

world of work• Mechanisms exist beyond formal system:

Sakshar Bharat, Television and Radio, ICTs, libraries, NGOs participation

• Open Learning Systems-National and state (NIOS, SOS, IGNOU, State Open University)

• Lacking accessibility, awareness at grassroots level

• Expansion of facilities required• Need to develop partnerships with NGO sector• System need to play a proactive role

Learning

• There is a paradigm shift in conceptualisation of learning as construction of knowledge:NCF-2005

• Learner Achievement Surveys carried out to assess quality in learning

• Wide disparity in learning outcomes (urban-rural, male-female, SES, differently abled, etc.)

• Provisions and practices need to address the issue

April 10, 2023 13

Page 14: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Teaching• NCF defines as a process to facilitate learning

and teacher as facilitator • However, entrenched practices are traditional• QMT-SSA implemented by states• Both the states are discussing the new teaching

learning perspectives• Strengthening of support structures for teacher

training required• Teachers need to be freed from non-teaching

activities • Qualifications, induction training, good service

conditions (salary etc.) required (for para-teachers as well) for effective functioning

Page 15: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Assessment• Policies and documents emphasize CCE up to

Class-XII and no detention policy up to Class-VIII

• Source Book on Assessment-NCERT tried out-Meghalaya

• Meghalaya planning to pilot CCE in 500 schools

• MP adopted CCE and documented outcomes • Concept of CCE as holistic approach is

misunderstood• Continuous training for teachers, teacher

educators, administrators required April 10, 2023 15

Page 16: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Curriculum• The Constitution, NPE, other policy documents,

researches are consulted in designing curriculum

• National Curriculum Framework shared with states and notified as THE framework for all states/UTs

• States develop policy/ Curriculum Framework. MP developed SCF-2007, Meghalaya in the process

• Coordination & common understanding among all stakeholders needed for effective execution

April 10, 2023 16

Page 17: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Learners

• NCF-2005 talks about primacy of learner as constructor of knowledge, and hence involved in curriculum development process

• This is not understood in states• Mechanism to address diverse groups of

learners required• Plurality of materials for linguistic minority

groups required• Teacher, teacher educators training required

Page 18: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Teachers/ Teacher Educators• Policy documents in place (NCF, NCFTE)• Regulatory mechanism in place (NCTE) and

teacher recruitment policy in place• Various models of courses are in practice• Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) is now mandatory• Challenges for preparation of quality teachers

exist-mushrooming growth in MP and shortage in Meghalaya

• PSTE and ISTE courses are not revised in sync with NCF-2005, NCFTE-2009

• Continuous training of teachers, educators required on new pedagogy and evaluationApril 10, 2023 18

Page 19: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Learning Environment• Policy, guidelines, mechanism in place:

NPE,RTE, NCPCR,RCI, Boards• Access to infrastructure, facilities, TLM have

increased over the years• Guidelines for child friendly school in MP• All schools not equipped with basic facilities

(toilet, drinking water etc) Meghalaya• Equity and inclusion issues--speedy

Implementation of RTE Act needed• Quality physical and psycho-social

environment needed (Meghalaya-problem of teenage pregnancy and delinquency observed)

• Counselors need to be provided in schoolsApril 10, 2023 19

Page 20: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Use of ICT in Education• Country has a National Policy on ICT in School

Education• CAL-SSA, ICT@Schools Scheme-RMSA under

Implementation-Meghalaya teachers uncomfortable

• Headstart Programme is implemented-MP• Piloting states have partial ICT Infrastructure,

EDUSAT network• Maintenance, power cuts, untrained teachers,

slow internet are stumbling blocks• Need to build infrastructure, use ICT for teaching

learning, training & governance in big wayApril 10, 2023 20

Page 21: National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Piloting of General Education.

Governance• ECCE to senior secondary level-structures in place• Education portal created and used (MP)• Transparency and accountability still a distant

dream• Active Community monitoring of schools

needed• Coordination/Synergy among Dept./ parallel

structures a missing link • Political instability leading to delayed policy

Financing

• Education is a concurrent subject- major funding by Central Govt. including special schemes

• Decentralised budgeting is encouraged-GOI• Finance management-flow of funds to grassroots

level is an issue• e-Governance and e-transfer of funds has made

the system transparent, quick (MP)• State financing to education needs to increase

System Efficiency

• Policies, strategies, annual work plan promote efficient use of resources

• Weaker and slow system of feedback• Monitoring and supervision at all level needs

to be strengthened• Education Portal for tracking some services

in place• Third Party Evaluation of systems, policies,

schemes, plans required (MP)

Importance of the Framework• Framework enhances understanding comprehensively

by generating varied dimensions of every aspect of school education

• Intricacies involved in schooling are made visible• Disjointedness that exists in the system gets exposed• Interconnectedness of various aspects of education is

highlighted/ brought forth• Opens up research areas and brings forth the need to

use research findings as feedback • Hence framework may be adopted

Lessons Learnt from GEQAF Piloting• Identify key strengths to build on• Critical constraints that require redress • Measures required for redress• Implementing responsive measures• Benchmarking and monitoring progress• Systems and stakeholders accountability• Such an analysis required periodically
