Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya National Mission on Teachers and Teaching (PMMMNMTT):
Launched in March 2015.
Concerned Ministry: Ministry of Human Resource Development
About Scheme:
Under the scheme Government will set up 50 Centres of Excellence for Curriculum and Pedagogy with necessary emphasis on Maths and Science.
It is mandated to ensure a coordinated approach so as to holistically address the various shortcomings relating to teachers and teaching across the educational spectrum ranging from school education to higher education including technical education; using the best international practices for excellence.
It will also empower teachers and faculty through training, re-training, refresher and orientation programmes in generic skills, pedagogic skills, discipline specific content upgradation, ICT and technology enabled training and other appropriate interventions.
The various components of PMMMNMTT:
1. setting up 30 Schools of Education,
2. 50 Centres of Excellence for Curriculum and Pedagogy,
3. Two Inter University Centres,
4. National Resource Centre,
5. Five Centres of Academic Leadership and Educational Management,
6. Subject Based Networks and Workshops and Seminars,
This will strengthen teachers, and in turn will improve the understanding of the students to grasp basic concepts and help them learn better.
Unnat Bharat Abhiyan:
Launched in December 2014
Concerned Ministry: Ministry of Human Resource Development About Scheme:
The program was launched with an aim to connect institutions of higher education, including Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and Indian Institutes of Science Education & Research (IISERs) etc. with local communities to address the development challenges through appropriate technologies so as to ensure sustainability.
The objectives of Unnat Bharat Abhiyan are broadly two-fold:
1. Building institutional capacity in Institutes of higher education in research & training relevant to the needs of rural India.
2. Provide rural India with professional resource support from institutes of higher education ,especially those which have acquired academic excellence in the field of Science, Engineering & Technology and Management.
Under this programme,132 villages have been identified for intervention by the following 16 institutes of higher education so far.
Based on area/village identification, the Unnat Bharat Cells in the Institutes will develop strategies for problem and resource mapping and developing a holistic development plan with clear inputs and measurable outcomes and time lines.
Various issues that can be undertaken are listed as follows:
Natural resource management (water and watersheds, soil, bio-diversity),
Economic Productivity through appropriate technologies for sustainable agriculture and agro-processing,
Entrepreneurship and Skill development through multipurpose service-cum-training centers in rural areas,
Technological and managerial interventions on developing Physical Infrastructure (rural housing, drinking water, improved sanitation, low-cost toilets, renewable energy, rural and regional plans.)
Rural electronics and IT to provide access to technology in the areas of health, sanitation, sustainable agriculture, education watershed management, etc.
Social and institutional infrastructure development such as Health, Education, Public Transport, PDS. etc.
