1. The Concept of Open University
An open learning system is one in which the onus of learning is primarily on the students.
Despite this, they are formally enrolled in a system which takes in other learners too. Thus, we draw a
line of distinction between the above-mentioned category of students and (a) those borrowing books
from Libraries and (b) those formally attached to a conventional University where classroom teaching
is the principal mode of instruction.
The Open University represents an alternative approach to higher learning. It stands apart from
a highly formal, institutionalized and centrally administered system of education. Its philosophy is
built around the principles of universality, flexibility and innovativeness. Its ideas and institutions, its
methods and procedures are all shaped accordingly. Conceptually, it can be viewed as a system
drawing upon the best elements in formal and non-formal education.
The 'openness' consists of a variety of features. First, it offers easy access to the learners. The
entry requirement is not too exacting. A genuine interest in picking up knowledge is all that it
expects. Consequently, it would try to embrace as many learners as possible.
Secondly, its territorial reach is visibly wide. It aims at bringing education to the doorstep of
the learner wherever he or she may be. Various methods of communication and contact are used for
this purpose. The classroom of the University, thus, is as wide as the entire land it seeks to serve.
Thirdly, the Open University is learner-oriented. It devises its courses and methods of teaching
to suit the needs of the learners. Their options and inclinations are given due priorities. A variety of
coursesshort-term or long-term, liberal or professional-can be pursued under the University.
Fourthly, it believes in fair distribution of quality education, teaching aid, consultancy and
study materials. Whatever resources the University has are made evenly available to all learners
wherever of whoever he or she might be. It eliminates variations and discrimination.
Fifthly, its administration is decentralized. In promoting Distance Education, the University
creates a wide network of Study Centres. Students need only to come to the nearest available centre
for collecting all information, completing all formalities, discussing their academic issues and
appearing for evaluation of their work at intervals chosen by them.
Sixthly, student assessment under Open University is based on continuous assessment and
credit system. It does not require students to get bogged down in one final examination. One can
study at one's own pace.
It short, the Open University seeks to open up the treasure house of knowledge to the maximum
number of users. Thereby it would enhance their skills for productivity and further learning. Socially,
too, the University promises steady empowerment of those who suffered backwardness for want of
these skills. Considering the current trends all over the world, the Open University is going not only
to complement the conventional system of higher education but may soon occupy the centre stage
also in developing countries where the resources do not measures up to the vastness of the clientele.

3. Rehabilitation Council of India : A Brief Introduction
In 1992, Parliament passed the Rehabilitation Council of India Act, which was notified and
became effective from June 1993. The Act casts the following important responsibilities on the Council.
l Standardization of syllabi for all professionals needed for the special education or
rehabilitation of the disabled.

4. Guideline for Special EducationDistance Education
The Distance Education Programme is being offered jointly by NSOU and RCI. It aims to develop
professionals for Special Education within a broad perception of Education in the Twenty First Century.
44
The Distance Education Programme aims to develop professionals for Special Education within
a broad perception of Education in the Twenty First Century in the ensuing Age of IT Revolution and
Globalization. Within this broad perception the so called disabled are perceived as differently abled

aspirants to become agents of change as teacher-professional through imbibing required knowledge,
understanding, attitude and skill. The education and training will enable them to tap the hidden talents
and potentialities buried in the differently abled; develop in them faith as well as sense of freedom,
self-respect and dignity not only to stand on their own leg but also to contribute their services to the
society and the nation.

6. Evaluation Procedure
The method of evaluation of students is different in an Open University. Students would be subject
to continuous evaluation for 20 percent of the total marks in each Course. A Course carries a certain
number of credits. One credit is equivalent to thirty-hours of study time (which includes all the
learning activities) from the point of view of an average learner. The rest of the marks are
reserved for term-end examinations. In case of Practical Papers, continuous evaluation carries 60 percent
of the total marks.
Continuous evaluation is made on the basis of assignment which every student is required to
submit before each Term-end examination. The number of such assignments is usually two for each
Paper taken.
Term-end examinations are held at the end of every semester (for the concept of 'semester' refer
to 'Academic Session'). Students who intend to appear at a term-end examination are required to fill
in application forms by themselves and submit them to the University through the Study Centres
sufficiently in advance. The student who misses a particular term-end examination may avail
himself/herself of the next one to clear a backlog.
The details of the credit system are given below :-
Total credit : 144 for 1800 marks
Area Theory Practical Total Credits
Non-Disability 500 300 800 64
Disability 400 600 1000 80
Total 900 900 1800 144
The Evaluation of each subject will be made in two ways :-
A. Assignment / Internal Assessment :
Every student is required to submit the assignment papers before each Term-end Examination
which is due at the end of each semester. The assignments papers will be evaluated by the University
centrally. But in no case a student shall be allowed to fill in the application form to sit for the
examination if he/ she has not submitted assignment paper before the filling in of the examination
form.
The formative and summative evaluation will be conducted in all curricular and co-curricular areas of
the Course. Regular feedback to the student based on the evaluation of the assignments, practicals and
assessments will be ensured. The evaluation system shall include the following :-
a. Self Evaluation Exercise (No weightage)
b. Assignments (20% weightage)
c. Term-end Examination (80% weightage)
B. Term-End Examinations :-
80 % of the total credit points of the subjects would be reserved for Term-end examination
scheduled to be held at the end of the semester.
