 Hello, I welcome you all once again to my channel Explore Education, I am Dr. Dashmissing, Assistant Professor, Department of Education, SS Khanna Galshri College, University of Palahapur. And I am discussing nowadays higher education in India. And this time I am going to discuss role of HRDC, means Human Resource Development Centre in Higher Education, okay. And this lecture will be useful for your competitive teaching examinations as well as for your regular courses, okay. Let's start. Genesis, how HRDC has been developed, how it has come into existence. So, then we will have to go to the National Education Institute in 1906. I mean, you will be reading as much as you know that there is so much going on after the recommendations of NPE 1986. So, the National Policy on Education, NPE 1986, in its program of action, you know, you must have heard that this POA came in 1990s, makes appointed reference to the crucial link between teacher motivation and equality of education. Meaning, the National Education Institute and Program of Action have found that there is a link, there is a link between which education is so motivated and what kind of quality of education it provides. Meaning, the more teacher motivated, the more quality education students will provide. The NPE recognized the need for improving quality of teaching and proposed to provide opportunities for professional and career development so that teachers may fulfill their role and responsibility within the system of higher education. NPE recognized that they found that we need to improve the quality of teaching and they found that teachers should give opportunities for professional and career development. NPE recognized that they should give opportunities for the higher education system to improve their role and responsibility within the system of higher education. It was proposed to enhance their motivation skills and knowledge through systematic orientation in specific subjects, techniques and methodologies and thereby inculcate in them the right kind of values that would encourage them to take initiatives for innovative and creative work. UGC is the pursuance of the NPE 1986, so NPE 1986 showed this direction and then UGC launched it. What did it launch? ASC. First of all, its name was Academic Staff College, academic staff college means that the staff will be taught something like this, then UGCHRDC said that UGCHRDC is Human Resource Development Center. Meaning, now when the Ministry of Education is called Ministry of HRD and Human Resource Development, then Human Resource Development Center is done, program for promoting quality in higher education. That is why it launched so that we can increase the quality in higher education, so that teachers can be professionally upgraded. In this endeavour, 66 academic staff colleges were established in different universities all over India, fully funded by UGCHRDC. UGCHRDC said that it will fund this program and 6,000 academic staff colleges were opened in different universities, but from 2015, which means it is not very old, the Academic Staff Colleges were called Human Resource Development Center. Let me close this, Academic Staff Colleges were renamed as HRDC. Okay, then what is philosophy? HRDC is the main philosophy to keep in mind that the teacher is central to the system. The philosophy is that we believe that the core of education is central to the system. As the pace of change has accelerated, the future of higher education has become more unpredictable and discussions about how to maintain its relevance to countries remain in place. They are saying that as the pace of change is rapidly changing, the future of higher education and the future of higher education is very unpredictable, you cannot predict what is going to happen. Like the Covid pandemic has changed so much that no one had thought that it would be unpredictable. So how will you be relevant? So it is important that there are new innovations, new techniques, new methodology, new content to be developed. Under the given scenario, the role of the teacher has evolved over the period of time and in the present era of globalization, it is expected that teachers will assume the role of a change leader and facilitator. So it is seen in this view that the journey of education is changing according to the time. It does not mean that once you have come into education, then you do not need to do anything. You need to be upgraded, you need to learn something new and as present era of globalization and it is expected that you will work in the form of a change leader, that is, you will accept change, you will adapt according to the change and you will be able to support it. Fertility Development through HRDC's PMMMMTT, what is this? Pandit Madan Mohan Malvi, National Mission on Teachers and Teaching. Many of you must have seen that its brochures come, flyers come, fans will also come. PMMMMTT centers and other faculty training programs constitute an important strategy for achieving excellence. So we are saying that under HRDC, we will run the PMMMMTT center and other faculty training programs so that we can achieve excellence. The thrust of faculty development through these implementing units is to enable all faculty to acquire specific competencies that help improve their work performance, particularly teaching effectiveness and become more effective at facilitating student learning. They are saying that what is the thrust of faculty development? What is the emphasis on? That the faculty will give them specific competencies, they will give them a special direction through which their work performance will improve, their teaching effectiveness will improve and they will be able to facilitate the student's learning in a more specific way. That means that there will be a lot of support in that. Learn about new fields, frontiers of knowledge, we will get to know about new things, we will get to know about new areas, we will get to know about a new instructional delivery model that can be taught in such a way. We will get to know about technology, pedagogy, through which we will be able to improve student learning outcomes and enhance teaching effectiveness. And we will be able to establish excellence, we will be able to establish a positive vote and engage in scholarship. All this has been established by HRDC, that this will happen if we train faculty. Then what are its objectives? To increase access to high quality education by organizing specially designed orientation program on pedagogy based on free moves and hybrid classes. Now the concept of hybrid has come up. Earlier it was not like this. Now it is talking about hybrid mode. So they are saying that we should make an orientation program, we should make it based on pedagogy, we should make it based on any specific thing and we should provide high quality education to our faculty. So that faculty will provide it to the student. We will make a blended learning program like induction, re-education, re-infracture. When orientation enters the service, you are oriented. You should be able to transact in your classroom in a better way. Refreshing. If you have old things, you should refresh them. You should know something new. To encourage teachers to develop in-house education technology incubators that help entrepreneurial start-ups get off the ground by providing them with research, mentorship and connections. Teachers should be told about new technology, what is going on in that system, this should be told. One week program is being run like in the academic leadership. IPR. What is IPR? Intellectual property rights, gender sensitization, many such issues are important. You should discuss any subject in your classroom. You have to use it. You have to use it. It is a usage. It is a work thing. All to organize specially designed induction orientation program and refresher courses in IT. Without information technology, there is no possibility. So, the new entrant, the new educated teacher, should be enrolled in such courses so that they can do better transactions. What is PMM and TT? HRDCs include Bandit Madan Mohan Malvi, National Mission on Teachers and Teaching to address important issues pertaining to availability of qualified and competent teachers with systems to support their consistent knowledge of gradation to match the global competence and other requirements of fast-growing new knowledge in various disciplines and across the system. They are saying that this is also a new scheme. It is said that we will give lectures on important issues, orientation, and FDP. What is FDP? Technology Development Program. What will happen is that their knowledge will be upgraded and they will be able to match the global competence. We just have to be local. We just have to be ready for our country, for the future. We should be able to do the same. We should be able to work in our education systems and in various disciplines. We are getting so many new roles and roles. We should be able to match them so that we can tell our students and students about them. Then collaboration. HRDCs work collaboratively with the systems. There is a need and a need. Because only one body cannot do it. So, they are saying that we have made many collaborations. IUCTE. Inter-University Center for Teacher Education. CEC. Consortium for Educational Communication. InflipNet. Information and Library Network. And HRDC. Human Resource Development Center. Signoristically. Who will be on top? IUCTE. Shell Device. The Pedagogical Tools. Comments Rate to the Curriculum. Prescribe the Guidelines. And CEC shall help in production of OER. What is OER? Open Educational Resources. And Moves. By appreciating the Cognitive Disabilities. And Evolutionary Technological Quality Rubrics. Whereas InflipNet shall provide the widely accepted Distribution Channel for Audio, Video and Other E-Resources. Okay. That is. IUCTE. Then CEC. CEC OER. Move. InflipNet. Disseminate. Audio Video. E-Resources. And lastly HRDC. EMRC. What is EMRC? Educational Multimedia Research Center. And what is NRC? National Resource Center. By collaborating with them, production and dissemination of E-Resources will be done. That is, E-Resources will be made. And it will be provided. Then ARPIT is also a new name in this. ARPIT. ARPIT's Full Form. Annual Refresher Programming Teaching. The MHRD has launched annual Refresher Programming Teaching. A major and unique initiative of online professional development using the MOOCs platform SWAYAM. Look at SWAYAM. SWAYAM also has my video. You can listen to it. It is also on the MOOC. You can listen to it. So, they are saying that your professional development sometimes takes you for DLN. For UQE. Sometimes you are involved in academic engagements. And a very good program touches you. Because there is no leave or a sanction. You have all responsibilities. So, do it online. Through ARPIT. Its certificate is considered. And in your CAS, any career advancement scheme will be combined. So, you don't need to do DLN for it. And this annual Refresher Programming Teaching. This is its name. It is online.

So, 40 hours of video content and 20 hours of non-video content. So, the text. Then UGCHRDC in different universities had established for building up quality and excellence among teachers, community and higher education. So, imparting knowledge, updating teaching skills, technology periodically, promoting critical and innovative thinking, application of ICT, etc. Means, why did UGCHRDC establish that the faculty involved in higher education and the teacher involvement you motivate them, you upgrade them professionally, you tell them new things so that their teaching effectiveness and the student's learning outcome will be funded in UGCHRDC. And what is that? Means, the points are that we will tell technology, we will promote critical and innovative thinking, we will teach application of ICT, we will talk about gender sensitization, we will talk about IPR, we will talk about all the issues. So, in this way, you will understand the role of HRDC which was established in 2015. First, it was called ASC. In 2015, HRDC was established and NPU-1906 and POA-1909 after recommendation, UGCHC has started it. So, thank you and don't forget to like and subscribe my channel Explore Education.
