NCTE w Introduction Dr B K Mishra Regional Director ERC, NCTE “Innovative Practices of DIETs” is an outcome of the regional seminar held on Puri on 27-28 August 2004. Apart from the policy makers from NCTE, experts from NCERT, NIEPA, Directors of SCERT/Elementary Education, members of ERC, Principals of twenty-two NCTE recognized DIETs from the twelve eastern region states participated and shared their views, ideas and perspectives. This regional seminar brought forward many new ideas and suggestions that aimed at further developing a dynamic and innovative role for DIETs in the field of elementary education. The seminar papers, presentations, speeches have been documented in order to ensure that they can be shared to provide a good reference point for future workshops and programmes. District Institutes of Education and Training (DiETs) are roie models in elementary teacher education in providing both pre-service and in-service training. Universalisation of elementary education is an important goal under the constitution as well as in the National Policy of Education, 1986. Before the adoption of NPE, academic and resource support for elementary education was provided largely at national and state level by institutions like NCERT, NIEPA, SCERT, etc. At the district level the elementary teacher educational institutions were confined only to pre-service teacher education. NPE and POA (Plans of Action) envisaged the addition of a comprehensive district level support system in the form of DIETs to provide academic and resource support at the grass -root level for the success of various strategies and programmes undertaken for the realization of Universalization of Elementary Education. These are established academic resource centers supporting the district level initiatives. As centrally sponsored schemes, they have also positive advantage of financial and other support, which are normally not available to state teacher-training institutes. Setting up of DIETs is a move towards decentralization, and DIETs have become nodal units at districts. DIETS have been empowered to impart academic and resource support as per local needs and research planning for elementary education. DIETs have a bigger role and range other than being pre-service teacher training institutions. Seven broad areas have been identified for the DIETS, these include various aspects of elementary education and training such as pre-service training of two years, in-service teachers training, action research, subject teaching, 1 ERC Seminar on Inovations in DIETs, 27-28 August 2004, Puri, Orissa « curriculum & material development, evaluation, ICT, planning and management. DIETS have also assumed a special role in the context of Sarvashiksha Abhiyan, and DPEP. Beside pre-service and in-service trainings, DIETs are oriented to train the heads of the institutions, heads of School Complex, sub-district level education officers, instructors of alternative systems of education, school development & monitoring Committee members, coordinators of Block and Cluster resource centers, and orientation of all stakeholders having direct involvement with UEE at the district and sub-district levels. They establish linkages with other district level agencies. Government of India has sanctioned 133 DIETS for the twelve eastern region states that come under the jurisdiction of ERC, NCTE. DIETs in the eastern region are unique and diverse in many ways, they are an assortment of DIETs established in developed districts like Dhenkanal, Orissa and Gaya in Bihar, as well as those DIETs established in places like, Dhuburi in Assam& Cherapunjee in Meghalaya where very different physical and social conditions exist. They exist in developed plain areas as well as underdeveloped tribal areas, rural as well as urban areas. They have developed in various ways in different states. Some are functionally more active, and yet some are still struggling to develop into viable and stable resource centers. The Seminar was an attempt to focus on the multi-sectoral and innovative approaches followed by the District Institute of Education and Training (DIETs) in the field of teacher education.

  • Problems of Higher Education in Tripura
    Vol. VI, Issue 1 (June 2020) http://www.mzuhssjournal.in/ Problems of Higher Education in Tripura Sanjoy Roy * Abstract The New Education Policy emphasizes that education should be accessible and affordable with thrust on equity and excellence and it may be structured in such a way that 'gross enrolment ratio' should increase and number of 'dropouts' come down effectively. One of the greatest challenges to higher education in India is providing access to the growing segments of the population demanding post- secondary education (meaning raising gross enrolment ratio or GER). On the other hand, quality growth of higher education in India is debatable contradicting the very objective of equity within the social growth of the country. Similarly the quality of higher education in Tripura is at a mismatch stage. The present paper seeks to portray the GER in North eastern region, Government Expenditure on Education in Tripura as wellas the factors inhibiting the quality of higher education in the state. The paper is based on the secondary data collected from various websites of different organizations, reports, discussion paper and publications in various journal and newspapers etc. Keywords : Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER), Quality, Expenditure and Infrastructure. Introduction The purpose of higher education is to pave the way for students to move from known to unknown by the application of knowledge, innovative thinking and creative process. The goal of higher education is to train the mind to undertake a continuous thought relevant to emerging circumstances and offer solutions to the emerging needs. National Commission on Higher Education (1986) translated the vision of Radhakrishnan Commission and Kothari Commission in five main goals for higher education, which include greater access, equal access (or Equity), quality and excellence, relevance and value based education.

The quality of primary education has always been a matter of concern. Primary education is the foundation of entire education up gradation. The education environment has seen many changes in the curriculum of primary education due to various developments in the field of science and technology. Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) launched in 2001 mandated for having a community own and transparent Educational Management Information System (EMIS). This was brought out by National University of Planning and Administration (NUEPA) in the form of District Information System for Education (DISE).This resulted in having class-wise performance data in all the subjects of all the children in India providing state and union territory wise break up. Based on the DISE data, Educational Development Index (EDI) is prepared which is helpful in deciding future course of investment on elementary education in the country. EDI is an index to measure the status of elementary education in the country. The EDI basically helps in computing the comparative status of a state vis-à-vis other states with regard to different aspects of universalisation of education and the various processes associated with providing education.

  • Comparative Analysis of the Extent of Free Education and Average Private Expenditure on Education in India
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 37 ( 2012 ) 277 – 295 International Conference on Emerging Economies – Prospects and Challenges (ICEE-2012) Comparative analysis of the extent of free education and average private expenditure on education in India Ruchira Bhattacharya* Centre for the Study of Regional Development, School of Social Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi - 110067, India Abstract The paper is an attempt to analyse up to what extent free education can reduce households’ burden of private expenditure on education. Such an analysis is important in current government policy drive of reducing subsidies from social sectors and providing targeted free education to poor. Logically the social need of students availing free education is fulfilled by government so they are relieved from the risk of impoverishment due to high private expenditure. But analysis on NSSO data on Participation and Expenditure on Education, 2007-08 reveals that free educations is availed only at elementary level and at that level also free education is not universal. In the first part the distribution of free education has been discussed at each level of education, MPCE class and state. Next the average cost of education for students receiving free education and students’ not receiving free education has been calculated to compare up to what extent free education exempts students from private expenditure. Lastly the comparative share of each item of education to total expenditure has been analysed for each state to understand the particular item that is responsible for most of the expenditure on households. It has been observed that although the cost of education of those receiving free education is lower than those receiving paid education but in absolute terms there is significant expenditure on education by the households.

  • Chapter –Iii Review of Related Literature 3.0. Introduction
    CHAPTER –III REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 3.0. INTRODUCTION Research in any field is a search for knowledge. It is a systematic attempt to provide answers to questions. The research uncovers facts and formulates a generation based on the interpretation of those facts. Through educational research one acquires systematic and worthwhile information about the educative process. It is a way to acquires dependable and useful information when the scientific method is applied to the study of educational research. Travers defines educational research as an activity directed towards the development of organized body of scientific knowledge about the events with which educators are concerned. The first survey of research in education edited by Dr. M.B. Buch in 1963 begun with the observation that educational research is still at its infancy. Education was only on emerging discipline at that time. Recently it was established that every other day, one Doctorate is awarded by one or the other Indian universities through its faculty of education. This has been considerer as an alarming growth rate by many academicians and researchers who feel that standard of education research is deterioting. The fact that fifth surveys of educational research have so far been published and it is an indicator of the widening spectrum of educational research. Review of related studies makes the researcher aware in the said area and also makes know various methods used in conducting research and finding thereof. To do this the researcher goes through dissertation, abstracts, educational index, bibliographies, and then goes on to individual studies and articles. In the words of walter, R.Borg (1965) ―The literature in any field forms the foundation upon which all future work will be built.
