\"YUKTI<\/p>\n

Context:<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u2022 Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s slogan of \u201cSabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas\u201d has united Indians and inspired them to focus on progress, prosperity and harmony.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The PM has laid much emphasis on education, especially school education.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Schemes to construct more than 400 new Ekalavya Model Residential Schools for tribal children by 2022 are a case in point.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Make in India, Digital India, Skill India and the Aatmanirbhar Bharat project are other endeavours to make the country self-reliant.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The PM has repeatedly emphasised a holistic system of education that is academically rich and enables students to pursue rewarding careers.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The focus on the girl child\u2019s education, modernisation of the educational infrastructure, and improvements in the field of teacher training are some of the notable measures of the government in the realm of education.<\/p>\n

\u2022 When the coronavirus struck, the nation geared itself to saving the academic year and the careers of students.<\/p>\n

What are the steps taken?<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u2022 The Ministry of Human Resource Department has played an important part in facilitating several crucial initiatives.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The government has initiated the YUKTI web portal, the Aarogya Setu app has been made available for free and the National Foundational Literacy and Numeracy Mission aims to boost literacy.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The National Curriculum and Pedagogical Framework and the Bharat Padhe online campaign are bringing knowledge to the grass roots.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The minister\u2019s experience and administrative skills helped the ministry turn a potential disaster into a productive time for 3.3 million students, and others.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The approach to education during the pandemic has relied on short-term and strategic initiatives.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Prime Minister\u2019s e-Vidya scheme synergises and strengthens several distance-education projects \u2014 digital, online, and mass media.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Benefitting 25-crore school children, it focuses on developing permanent assets for quality education for generations to come.<\/p>\n

\u2022 A dedicated channel for every class will ensure easy, customised lessons and study material. Importantly, it focuses on equity in education.<\/p>\n

\u2022 This endeavour also individualises the teaching-learning experience to a considerable extent.<\/p>\n

Other Unique steps:<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u2022 For the differently-abled, this scheme provides bespoke materials under the Digitally Accessible Information System (DAISY).<\/p>\n

\u2022 Webinars, podcasts, and online classes enrich the learning experience.<\/p>\n

\u2022 In line with its comprehensive approach, the government has tried to address the equally important issue of psychological health.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Manodarpan, a program that covers both parents and students at a time when unprecedented challenges and stress have raised mental health issues.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Continuously monitored, running along clear guidelines developed by experts, and available round the clock, Manodarpan is a true welfare measure of a government that is responsive to its people.<\/p>\n

\u2022 This writer has initiated a unique concept, University Social Responsibility (USR), under which free online open educational resources in English, Sanskrit, Hindi, Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Russian, and Spanish have been developed for those interested in learning the basics of these languages.<\/p>\n

\u2022 EnglishPro, a free mobile app, is ready for launch to help those around the SSC\/Class X level in improving their English pronunciation in the Bharatiya way.<\/p>\n

University Social Responsibility Endowment Fund:<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u2022 Stepping beyond academics, the English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU) created the University Social Responsibility Endowment Fund.<\/p>\n

\u2022 With initial contributions from the staff, the university strengthened the hands of the government in a humble way in spreading awareness about COVID-19 through jingles on FM radio.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The university has made all possible efforts in equipping the faculty and students with e-resources.<\/p>\n

\u2022 EFLU is perhaps the first Central University to have completed end-semester examinations online and to have declared their results as well.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u2022 The COVID-19 crisis has brought out the nation\u2019s strengths, resilience and innovative spirit.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Nowhere is this more evident than in education.<\/p>\n
