The Tamil Nadu Open University (TNOU) has collaborated with Expertus, a provider of strategic training outsourcing services, to digitise the contents of its course materials and bring it out in CD format.
M.S. Palanichamy, Vice-chancellor, TNOU, inaugurating a workshop by Expertus to initiate University members into the process of content digitisation, said the TNOU was trying to incorporate appropriate hybrid technologies in its management, administrative and instructional operations in order to reach the unreached and make distance learning a seamless process that addresses different segments of society including the traditionally disadvantaged.
He said the University was allocating almost one-fifth of its course fee income each year for the conduct of periodical academic counselling sessions at various TNOU centres spread across the State. The digitisation was being done to provide students the printed course material in a digitised manner to ensure quality in teaching.
