Mumbai: Engineering students from across the globe will now be able to get lectures on their iPods delivered by the faculties of the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).
Students will also be able to get answers of their queries by the faculties of IITs or by their peers, as the IITs are going to permit students of various institutes to post questions and doubts relating to their courses on a special website which will be answered by their professors and students.
This initiative has been taken to make more efficient use of the IITs' intellectual resources by making them accessible to a wider audience across the globe under the National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning.
Kannan Moudgalya, Head, Centre for Distance Engineering Education at IIT-Bombay said, "We need to cope with the latest technology to transmit courses as the technology across the world is changing rapidly."
The seven older IITs and the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore are involved in the programme, which will help students catch up with world-class institutions, which make lots of resources available online.
This unique initiative will be helpful for all engineering colleges in the country, which do not have enough faculties to impart education.
"Students can post their queries by March which will be answered by IIT professors or peers," said Prof. Mangala Sunder Krishnan of IIT-Madras.
The new facilities are part of the National Programme's second phase, for which the government approved Rs.90 crore earlier this month.

The Bhubaneswar centre will benefit at least 120,000 students of about 650 schools in three states of Chhattisgarh, Orissa and West Bengal.
"We have decided to establish the eight regional centre of the CBSE in Orissa for the benefit of schools of three eastern states affiliated to the board," said a CBSE official.
"The centre will initially function from a rented building. The centre will be shifted to a permanent building though the site is yet to be finalized", the official added.

In addition to the inauguration of the eight centre of CBSE, the foundation stone of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bhubaneswar will also be laid down by Arjun Singh on the same day.
Earlier this programme was scheduled to be held on February 11. The foundation stone of the IIT will be laid down at the construction site situated few kilometers south of Bhubaneswar at KANSAPADA (Khudupur-Taraboi Road) near Jatni Block Office, Khordha.
This new IIT at Bhubaneswar is part of the 8 new IITs that have been established in the country by the MHRD during the XI Plan. The IIT-Bhubaneswar has already commenced its academic activities from 2008-2009 session from the campus of IIT Kharagpur.
The 7 other new IITs have been set up in Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Punjab, Gujrat, Madhya Pradesh (Indore) and Himachal Pradesh. An allocation of Rs.2,000 crores has been provided in the XI Plan and Rs.50 crores has been allocated for 2008-09 for new IITs.
