These Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are part of a broader initiative by the Ministry of Education to promote inclusive, self-paced learning across India. NCERT has been appointed as the national coordinator for developing and delivering school-level MOOCs for Classes 9 to 12 through SWAYAM, which is available both on its official website and mobile app.
These courses are designed to be interactive and learner-friendly. Each course includes:
. Video lessons by experienced teachers
. Downloadable reading materials
.
Self-evaluation tools such as quizzes and assignments
. Active discussion forums for peer and mentor support
. Registration is completely free, and students who complete the final assessment successfully will receive certificates.
Course content is accessible round the clock, and learners benefit from collaborative features like discussion boards and expert feedback mechanisms.
With this initiative, NCERT aims to provide equitable learning opportunities to students nationwide, regardless of their location or background.
