INFORMATION BROCHURE

Jadavpur University

In 1906 National Council of Education (NCE) was formed by the great thinkers of
the time to impart literary, scientific, technical and professional education. In 1955
NCE constituted itself as Jadavpur University. Since its establishment, Jadavpur
University has set itself apart by developing transdisciplinary pattern of
educational and research programmes Jadavpur University now stands on an area of
about 60 acres in the southern part of the Kolkata Metropolis. It also has an s
second campus covering about 20 acres of land in Salt Lake in the eastern side of
Kolkata.

The University has 3 faculties – Faculty of Engineering and Technology, Faculty of

Science and Faculty of Arts. In addition a number of Schools and Centres have
been set up to initiate interdisciplinary post-graduate, doctoral and post-doctoral
level research programmes in emerging areas. Presently there are 34 departments,
44 interdisciplinary Schools/Centres for Advance Studies and Research. There are
also some affiliated colleges. It has the largest under graduate
engineering/technology student intake in all disciplines in India. It also takes up
various other activities on a regular basis like Technology Development,
Consultancy, Manpower Training, EDP and Extension work.

The University has been granted highest (5 star) ranking by the National
Assessment and Accreditation Council. It was designated by University Grants
Commission, Govt. of India, as one of the 5 National Centres with Potential for
Excellence. It was also declared a Centre for Excellence in Science and Technology
by Department of Science & Technology, Govt. of India.

School Of Education Technology

The School of Education Technology (SET) was established by Jadavpur University
in 1988 primarily to experiment with technologies that could be used to create a
better teaching-learning environment. In 1996 as a recognition to its activities,
Ministry of Human Resource Development, Govt. of India and All India Council for
Technical Education, Govt. of India selected the SET as one of the seven nodal

13
centres for nationally co-ordinated project on Education Technology. In 1998,
Department of Electronics, now Ministry of Communication & Information
Technology (MCIT), Govt. of India established the Multimedia Training &
Development Resource Centre at SET. In 2003 MCIT provided funds to SET to set
up Multi-modal Digital Distance Education project. SET also wishes to develop
course materials for the Under Graduate Engineering students in some critical areas
to supplement the conventional classroom teaching. Linkages with various
Universities and Institutions of the U.K. like Micro Electronic Educational
Development Centre, Scotland, U.K. (1986), Open University, U.K. (1987),
University of Manchester, U.K. (1995),Leeds Metropolitan University, U.K.(2000 )
and Brunel University,U.K.(2004).

Multi-modal Digital Distance Education

Objective

During the globalisation process for about a decade, there has been rapid
technological innovations leading to many technological changes. To cope up with
these changes, there is a need for continuing Education of Technologists.
Conventional classroom teaching alone cannot meet the Human Resource
requirements. Digital Distance Education (DDE) is considered the only solution for
rapidly evolving subjects and explosive knowledge growth in the form of short and
medium term and career-oriented courses.

Mode of Education
In the multimodal digital distance education programme, all the following
modes of dissemination methods would be used
 Print material
 CD- ROM based self-learning packages.
 Education through Web-based learning environment
 Live broadcast of some lead-lectures by eminent personalities through Video
conferencing and one-way video with two way audio for interaction.
 Real time chat facility
 On-line quiz and assignments
 Laboratory and project work at work centers

The Computer Mediated learning paradigm may be utilised in the following forms
:
 Interactive Multimedia based Computer Based Instruction distributed in the
form of CD-ROM.
 Jadavpur University developed “Ekalabbya” or the like Just-In-Time
presentation distributed in the form of CD- ROM.
 Web-based learning and interaction through e-mail and live-chat.
 There will be some lead lectures by the Experts in the fields.
 In addition students would be required to perform laboratory work at the
work centres.
Work centers and Distance Education Partners such centres will
provide the following facilities / services :
 Access to computer for students pursuing Multimodal Digital Distance
Education programme by using CD-ROM, Web-education etc.

14
  Internet facility
 Provide the services of mentors during the student’s stay at work-centre.
 Conduct lab experiments and project work
 Assist in continuous evaluation of student’s performance.

The courses will be conducted at Jadavpur University. Besides this,

the courses will also be conducted through some Distance
Education Partners at their respective Work Centres
mentioned below :-
 Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, Kolkata
 CMC LTD, Kolkata

Examination

Examinations would be conducted in the conventional manner as is done in

classroom method at Jadavpur University.

Student Categories

There will be two categories of student as follows:-

Category X Students : They would use the work centers for lab work (6 hrs per
week), interaction work and CDROM/web browsing (14 hrs per week). In addition
they would conduct thesis/dissertation/project work at the work centers.

Category Y Students : They would use the work centers for lab work (6 hrs per
week) and limited interaction work (4 hrs per week). In addition they would
conduct thesis/dissertation/project work at the work centers. However for CDROM/
web browsing and other interaction work they may use their own home computers
or any cyber café at their own expense .

For the first batch only Category X Students are eligible for admission.

Courses

Initially two courses mentioned below will be started.

 4 Semester “Post Graduate Diploma in Multimedia and Web Technology” in
Multimodal Digital Distance Education format. This is for the first time any
University in India is offering the course in this mode.
 6 Semester “M. Tech.IT (Courseware Engineering)” in Multimodal Digital
Distance Education format.The course would be offered to intending
Resource Persons to familiarise with methodology, tools & techniques of
Digital Distance Education for Content Creation in their fields of
specialisation.
 Shortly, another 6 Semester course titled “M.Tech.IT (Software
Engineering)” in Multimodal Digital Distance Education format will also be
started.
