College teachers in the dark over NEP implementation
The Hindu
Vice-Chancellor says university will upload FAQ, with answers, on the website in a day or two to clear doubts
With about a fortnight remaining for the commencement of the 2021-22 academic year, college teachers of Mangalore University have said that they are in the dark as far as implementing the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is concerned.
A college principal who did not want to be named told The Hindu that many teachers are now into evaluation of answer scripts of the odd semester examinations. Some more teachers will be on duty for the final semester examination. Hence, teachers need some time to refresh themselves and prepare for teaching under the changed circumstances.
There is no clarity on the syllabi to be followed, on the total working hours of teachers, on the qualification of teachers for teaching skill development subjects and on the list of skill development subjects to be offered and the like. Teachers are in a dilemma, he said.
