This book examines the state of the Open and Distance Learning
(ODL)-based secondary education in India. ODL-based education has
been a key resource for children in India who can neither cope with
nor avail of regular schooling opportunities due to economic,
health and disability, or other constraints. The volume uses
large-scale empirical data collected from various Indian states and
a sensitive theoretical framework to study the equity, efficiency,
and effectiveness of the National Institute of Open Schooling
(NIOS) and the State Open School (SOS). Highlighting the roadblocks
and barriers in terms of its reach, inclusion, and delivery,
particularly to the marginalised, this book explores whether ODL
has a potential of being a sustainable and effective option at the
secondary and senior secondary level in India. Thus, it seeks to
generate policy discourse around delivery mechanisms and
effectiveness of ODL in developing countries. First of its kind,
this comprehensive volume will be useful for scholars and
researchers of education, education policy, public policy, and
political studies.

In the past decade, rapid digitalization has changed many elements
of society, and education is no exception. The tradition of
teacher-centered education has been long-held in education and is
still extremely well established. Due to the access of technology
for knowledge and education, however, the teacher's function in
many classrooms has been to advise and guide as students take
greater responsibility for their own learning using technology to
collect information. Schools and universities across the world are
beginning to redesign their learning spaces to enable this new
model of education, foster more interaction and small group work,
and use technology as an enabler of knowledge. Technology Training
for Educators From Past to Present addresses the issues facing our
education systems today and the role of technology and innovation
in the global transformation of education. This book focuses on the
fundamental need for educators at all levels to become
knowledgeable with the technological teaching and learning tools at
their disposal in order to best support student learning. Covering
topics such as inclusion promotion in education, technology
professional development, and online learning environments, this
premier reference source is a valuable resource for educational
administration and faculty, educators of K-12 and higher education,
educational software developers, IT consultants, pre-service
teachers, libraries, teaching colleges, researchers, and
academicians.
