Collaboration with AIR
JK administration has taken a path breaking decision to have a collaboration with AIR in order to provide education to the school going children especially in rural areas. In this direction, government took a decision to rope-in AIR for this purpose.
The teachers will be delivering lessons as per curriculum and the same will reach students through radio.
The lessons will be aired on the All India Radio, Srinagar during day time for which time slots have already been specified by the station.
The Directorate of School Education (DSEK), Kashmir had started tele-classes on March 26 through the Kashir channel of Doordarshan Kendra, Srinagar and presently two classes are aired daily covering the syllabus of elementary and secondary classes.
The department has also reached out to students through local cable networks which telecast the lessons prepared by DSEK and it has given students the much required platform to learn.
The DSEK has connected to a large number of students through its digital platform and video classes have been kept available for students on its YouTube channel which is linked to the official website of the DSEK.
These platforms will play an important role to keep the children in touch with their studies and not get isolated, during the present COVID-19 lockdown.
