These Programmes are compulsory. No Re-enrollment - (Every candidate should put in 80% attendance in the Contact Program.) Any candidate who fails to attend the first Contact Program in the first year within THREE days from the commencement of the contact program shall forfeit his/her seat. There will not be any provision for re-enrollment for the subsequent year. Fee remitted by such candidates will not be refunded. They have to seek fresh admission in the subsequent year as fresh candidates. Personal Contact Programmes will be arranged for a period of 15 days in each year.
The University considers these Personal Contact Programmes as very important aspect of Distance Education. Students are advised to make best use of this opportunity of listening to lectures, discussion on matters of academic interest with their teachers and exchanging notes with their fellow students.
The students of M.Ed Degree Program are expected to submit TWO written assignments in each course. The hand written assignments should be submitted within the stipulated date to enable the teachers to value them well in advance before the term-end examination.

2524
PROSPECTUS 2013-14
Before the students attend the Contact Programme they are advised to go through the study materials and note down the important points to be discussed. Unless they have gone through the print materials, there may not be much to discuss.
Assignments
Assignments are an integral part of distance learning. The purpose of assignment is to test the comprehension of the course content of the learning materials the student receives from the University and also to help them comprehend the courses better by providing necessary feed back. Students are advised to consult relevant reference materials for completing their assignments.
Assignments serve the purpose of continuous evaluation. The marks that the students score in their assignments will be counted in their final result. For their own record, they are advised to retain a copy of the assignments. Students will submit the assignments to the Study Centre Co-ordinator.
Submission of assignments is compulsory without which no student will be allowed to appear for the term-end examination.
If one appears in the term-end examination, without submitting the assignments, the result of the term-end examination will not be announced.

Assignments once submitted will be considered as final and the marks given to the assignment will be retained even if the student appears subsequently for the term-end examination.
Dissertation Work
There shall be a compulsory Dissertation to be submitted in the second year. The Dissertation Work is to help the student to use the theoretical insights they have developed by the study of various areas and use them to seek solutions to a problem or develop a design or strategy or material for an innovative practice. This will also help in the higher levels of learning which involve independent exploration and discovery. The post-graduate program which is directed towards preparing leaders in the field of education must have provision for a great deal of independent study including the ability to choose/select problems/topics which need to be addressed urgently. The Dissertation Work provides scope for this type of flexible and independent exploration.
By the end of first year students are expected to select an area of specialization as their elective. The topic/problem they are selecting for their Dissertation Work may be selected as far as possible from that area only. This would help them in strengthening their theoretical foundations in their specialization area.
