Ministry would try and introduce the Bill for the creation of the National Commission for Higher Education and Research (NCHER)
by Goutam Biswas 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

New Delhi: A draft cabinet note for the creation of an overarching regulatory body in the higher education section has been prepared and circulated across ministries for consultations, Kapil Sibal, Union minister for human resource development, said at a press conference on Thursday. Setting agenda: Union minister for HRD Kapil Sibal, with MoS Purandeshwari Devi, briefs the press in New Delhi on Thursday. Subhav Shukla / PTI Sibal said the ministry would try and introduce the Bill for the creation of the National Commission for Higher Education and Research (NCHER) in the next session of Parliament. A task force to aid and suggest measures for setting up a regulatory body has also been set up. NCHER is being set up on the recommendation of the Yash Pal committee. The committee, which was set up to suggest reforms in the higher education sector, had also recommended that the commission be a constitutional entity to ensure the absolute autonomy along the lines of the Election Commission of India. The suggestion has however been rejected by the Prime Minister’s Office, which has been studying the ministry’s proposal to amend the Constitution for setting up the regulatory body, saying the it should not be used for regulatory purposes, a source said. “It has been a setback because our report (on NCHER) wanted to leave no loopholes that would put the regulator at the risk of political influence,’’ a member of the Yash Pal committee said, requesting anonymity. NCHER, once set up, will replace and subsume the University Grants Commission, the All India Council for Technical Education and the National Council for Teachers Education, which have thus far regulated the higher education sector in India. The HRD ministry had earlier proposed bringing a Bill to set up the NCHER after the Constitution was amended. -- Goutam Biswas University Research Fellow, Department of Library and Information Science, University of Kalyani, Nadia, West Bengal,India.

The Bombay Teachers Training College has been preparing professional Educators for the last 40 years. The college is affiliated to the University of Mumbai and recognized by NCTE. It is one of the Institutions under umbrella of the prestigious Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board. The college is orgnizing National Level UGC sponsored conference on 6th and 7th April, 2010. Theme Of the Conference Landscapes of Learning: A celebration of Diversity The landscape of Learning have already changed over the last decade. Learners being their own individual approach, talents and interests to the learning situation. The context in which some one grows and develops has an important impact on learning. We have few teaching models that appropriately accommodate both consistent educational values and human diversity. Objectives of the conference 1. To create an awareness among the target group about uniformity and diversity in education. 2. To redefine the fundamentals of quality in the educational process and learning outcomes. 3. To foster leadership for human excellence in a multi-cultural competitive society. 4. To develop a multi-cultural approach to education. 5. To explore the potentials of new synergies of education. Sub themes : 1. Striving for Quality Quality is a fundamental consideration at all levels of educational planning and policy making. Quality needs to be identified, strived for and evaluated in terms of learning outcomes 2. Pathways to Life long Learning The field of education encompasses adult, continuing vocational and school education at all levels. Despite the diversity, some features like competency based training, inputs into curriculum design and specific skills development are common. 3. Dimensions of Leadership for Human Excellence Within our multicultural competitive societies the role of education is vital importance to the future of individual and collective development of the world. Leadership is key to the transformation and development of Humanity. 4. Cultural Perspectives for Learning for tomorrow Multiculturalism respects cultural variations rather than requiring that dominant culture assimilate the various cultures. It holds that certain shared cultural tenets are important to society as a whole, but that some cultural differences are important, too. 5. New synergies in education The potential for these linkups are immense, synergies between entities need to be explored to bring quality to educational systems.

Karnataka State College Librarians’ Association and the importance of accountability
by Vasanth 03 Mar '10

03 Mar '10

Dear Sir/madam, Recently we all the college librarians were trained for five days on various aspects of technologies which can be used for our day to day activities in our libraries in Gulbarga University in collaboration with the Department of Collegiate Education. The Karnataka State Librarians Association (KSCLA) was solely responsible for planning and making it a useful event. The president and the other office bearers must be congratulated for the good job they have done. On the other front we have to be critical of the conduct of the association in certain matters in the interest of stakeholders and the profession at large. As a college librarian it is proud that we have professional organization to protect the interest of the librarians but it has to be more transparent and proactive but not limited to mere felicitation. Why this has been discussed here is in last August the whole librarians’ day was dedicated to felicitation. Chief Guests were hardly left any time to speak on the issues important for the profession. In Gulbarga we all the participants were asked to subscribe “College News” brought out by the association and we did subscribe the magazine. It was not distributed as promised by the office bearers of the association and later they told us that it was posted to your personal address so far it has not reached us. There may be genuine reasons for not posting it. But for the growth of the association it is important to stand for what they promised us. There will be a meeting of college librarian on 5th March 2010 in Mysore. They have asked all the college librarian to come with certain amount of money and the agenda is to discuss six pay commission pay scale and other matters. There are other organizations to look into the matter. There are other problems in college libraries let us fight for that. There is no space for libraries in most of the colleges. Let us fight for providing space for libraries. Financial capital is important but it is intellectual capital we need for association to grow. Collect fund once in year or twice, time and again brought out the balance sheet, inform all the stakeholders involved in about the status. Organize talk by eminent personalities on important issues librarians are facing, associate with other library organizations to expand its scope and activities.
