 ‘SWAYAM’
Study Webs of Active-learning for Young Aspiring Minds
The Indian e-Learning Platform
As per ‘Digital India’ Initiative, MHRD has initiated to develop & make available ‘Massive
Online Open Courses (MOOCs)’ to the learners through out the country. The Ministry of
HRD, has accordingly embarked on a major and new initiative called ‘Study Webs of Active
Learning for Young Aspiring Minds’ (SWAYAM), which will provide one integrated platform
and portal for online courses, using information and communication technology (ICT) and
covering all higher education subjects and skill sector courses to ensure that the every student
in our country has access to the best quality higher education at the affordable cost.
SWAYAM is initiated by Government of India, to take best teaching learning resources to all,
including the most disadvantaged.
The three cardinal principles of Education Policy viz., access, equity and quality shall be
achieved by providing high quality e-content to all learners in the country through SWAYAM.
Courses delivered through SWAYAM are available free of cost to the learners, are delivered by
best of the teaching fraternity.
MHRD has constituted, National MOOCs Coordinators (NMCs), numbering 8 that have
been entrusted as under with the responsibilities to ensure MOOCs are developed & deliv-
ered in various disciplines and ultimately subjects are covered fully.
The NMCs are University Grants Commission (UGC), contributing to ‘Non Engineering
Post Graduation Degree Programme; IIT Madras and other groups of NPTEL, contributing
to Technical / Engineering UG & PG degree programme; Consortium for Education Com-
munication (CEC), contributing to Non Technology Under Graduation degree programme;
Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), contributing to Diploma and Certificates
Programme; NCERT, contributing to School Education from 9th to 12th; National Institute
of Open Schooling (NIOS); Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Bangalore, contributing to
Management Programme, & other IIMs and National Institute of Technical Teachers Training
& Research (NITTTR), contributing to Teacher Training Programme.
The Subject Matter Experts (chosen by the NMCs) have been hosting courses, taught in class-
rooms from 9th class till post-graduation in a number of disciplines that can be accessed by
anyone, anywhere at any time. In this process academicians from hundreds of institutions
through out the country are involved in developing & delivering MOOCs through SWAYAM
in almost all disciplines from senior schooling to Post Graduation wherein it is intended to
develop world class content.
The MHRD has developed a detailed “MOOCs Guidelines, 2017” (Page 71-86) and funding
for development & delivery of MOOCs is being provided by MHRD through institutions.
The courses hosted on SWAYAM are developed in 4 quadrants – (i) e-Tutorial: video lecture

2
(using audio-video, multi-media, animation and state of the art pedagogy / technology), (ii)
e-Text: specially prepared reading material that can be downloaded /
printed (iii) Discussion forum: for raising doubts and clarifying them on a near real time
basis by Course Coordinator or his team and (iv) Assignments: which shall contain; Prob-
lems and Solutions that could be in the form of Multiple Choice Questions, Fill in the blanks,
Matching Questions, Short Questions, Long Questions, Quizzes, Assignments and solutions,
FAQs and providing Clarifications on general misconceptions. Assignments are checked &
assessment/ feedback made available to registered students.
Development of SWAYAM Platform has been entrusted to ‘All India Institute of Technical
Education (AICTE)’ in March 2016, for in-house development, accordingly, the High qual-
ity IT Platform has been developed by the Microsoft. With additional features, the Phase-II,
SWAYAM is operational w.e.f 27th June 2017. The Pllatform is intended to host about 2000
courses and 80000 hours of learning material, within 2-3 years, on SWAYAM: covering
school, under-graduate, post-graduate, engineering, law and other professional courses. The
AICTE is also hosting the entire content on ‘SWAYAM Cloud’, which is expected to grow and
support about 3 Crore users with 10 lakh concurrent connections, in a few years.
UGC and AICTE have issued ‘Credit Framework for online learning courses through
SWAYAM, Regulation 2016’ (Page 87-99 (http://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/0272836_moocs.
pdf); allowing upto 20% Online courses taken through SWAYAM, to be counted for credit.
Grades earned by successful students studying in conventional Institutes shall be transferred
to the academic record of such Students. The MHRD, with effect from 16th November
2016, has on Trial basis, made public the SWAYAM portal “https://swayam.gov.in”. A screen
short of the Platform is shown as under. At present about 434 Online courses are listed on
SWAYAM and about 260 MOOCs have already been delivered, attended by above 74,000
Learners thought India.

The Online Courses are planned in such a way, so that few hours of student engagement takes

3
place, each week, which is followed by assignment or case studies given by the Expert to the
registered students. The Teaching Assistance (TA), associated with the Experts delivering the
MOOCs, shall check assignments and assess them and feedback on this shall be provided to
students on regular basis. In order to earn credits, registered students shall be asked to ap-
pear end-examination, which shall be proctored. On successful completion of each course,
the institution offering the course would issue the certificate and the student shall get credits
transferred into their marks certificate, issued by parent institution.
Discussion forum and interaction with peer group & Mentor shall be carried out on ‘Discus-
sion Forum’ on the SWAYAM. Discussion forum shall be made very active and the students
shall be encouraged to ask numerous questions to experts & post queries on SWAYAM plat-
form on a daily basis. Frequently Asked Questions (based on the SMEs’ past experience) shall
be posted along.
The Video’s from Online Courses, available on SWAYAM platform, shall also be used for
transmission in ‘SWAYAM Prabha’ (the 24X7, 32 educational DTH channels already launched
by the MHRD on 15th August 2016, using G-SAT-15 Satellite). Attempt shall be made to
synchronise course scheduling on SWAYAM Prabha channels with the courses delivered on
SWAYAM platform.
SWAYAM courses are now open to foreign students also, however credits transfer, if any, to
such students shall take place through Local partner(s) only.
The Online Courses delivered on SWAYAM, are going to reduce the digital divide. It shall,
turn out to be a disruptive technology and change the present business model of higher ed-
ucation. Since the MOOCs on SWAYAM is integrated with conventional education, it shall
bring-in tremendous learning opportunity in coming days and shall prove a game changer in
the Indian education sector.

graduate engineering students, interested in learning
the fundamental aspects of engineering thermody-
namics. The main emphasis is placed on precise and
Engineering
logical presentation of the basic concepts and princi-
ples, which are essential for the better understanding
of engineering thermodynamics. The methodical
rather than rigid problems solving techniques are
enumerated in details to encourage the students to
develop a feel for importance of thermodynamics.
03.
Discipline: Aerospace engineering
Course Name: Combustion in air breathing aero
engines
Instructor: Prof. Swetaprovo Chaudhuri
Institute: IISc
Next Run Start Date: JULY-OCT 2017
Course Objectives: This course will provide detailed,
state of the art understanding of chemical kinetics,
flames, turbulence and turbulent combustion, fol-
lowed by discussions on modern aero engine com-
bustors and how they optimize the above processes.
Therefore, after successful completion of the course,
the student should be well versed with the under-
standing of the complex, physico-chemical processes
in modern air-breathing aero engines. This should
allow him/her to model, design and improve com-
bustors towards more efficient engines.
