Youth Population

India, being a country with a majority youth population, has a good opportunity to strengthen its economy in the next few decades. However, this could only be possible, if the youth population is trained with the required skill-set for the job market with improved opportunities for higher education. Unfortunately, the percentage of higher education enrolment does not possess encouraging numbers due to various social & economic reasons. The ratio in the coming years can be improved by offering the higher education courses in open & distance learning mode (ODL). Recently University Grants Commission (UGC also eased the norms for the higher educational institutes to offer ODL programs. However, the present ODL programs that are being offered were challenged with (i) lack of quality checks (ii) lack of paradigm shift in the course delivery, which is still through correspondence mode (iii) the degrees offered by the distance mode are not on par with regular courses. In this view, it is time to assess the quality of the present ODL programs and the necessary steps have to be initiated to improve the quality of the program. Due to the COVID 19 pandemic condition, major parts of the world dependent on online classes for the delivery of the regular courses, in this view, various tools for delivery and assessment are being widely used/developed. The integration of these tools with the present corresponding courses shall improve the quality of the courses. Herein, we comprehensively present the above-mentioned problems and solutions to improve the quality of ODL courses in India.

The vision of introducing computing as a literacy taught from primary school to higher and lifelong education is producing a worldwide new curriculum design and adoption. A strong research effort has involved researchers and educators to find the best ways to prepare teachers and their students for computing with an emphasis on core computer science concepts. This paper, starting from a previously developed curriculum, aims to present and discuss learning trajectories for a first course on computing aiming to presenting key concepts first, such as functions and their use. This learning trajectory is compared with a second learning trajectory presenting loop and loop invariant first and a third one presenting variable first.
