Which of the following has not been appointed as a national coordinator for SWAYAM to ensure the quality of the course content ?
Indian Institute of Science (IISc)
SWAYAM (Study Webs of Active-Learning for Young Aspiring Minds) is the Government of India’s MOOC platform. To maintain the quality of course content, the Ministry of Education appointed national coordinators, each responsible for a category of courses.
The national coordinators include AICTE (self-paced and international courses), NPTEL (engineering), UGC (non-technical post-graduation), CEC – the Consortium for Educational Communication (undergraduate education), NCERT and NIOS – the National Institute of Open Schooling (school education), IGNOU (out-of-school students), IIM Bangalore (management studies) and NITTTR (teacher training).
NIOS, IIMB and CEC therefore all appear in the list of SWAYAM national coordinators. The Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, is a premier research institution but is not among the appointed national coordinators, so it is the institution that has not been given this role.
Indian Institute of Science (IISc) option is correct.
