Virtual classes from IIT profs in new time-table for 100 engineering colleges
Call 8585951111
Now even if you are not a student at the IIT, it does not stop you from taking lessons from IIT profs. Starting January when the new semester begins, a hundred engineering colleges across the country will follow a new table where half the lessons will be taught virtually by IIT professors under the QEEE program. Phase I of the Quality Enhancement in Engineering Education (QEEE) programme, will begin January 2, 2014.
Key highlights of QEEE:
- Live Classes
- Tutorials
- Virtual Labs
- MOOCs
- Vocational Augmentation Courses
The programme will cover nine subjects including Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering and Mathematics etc which will be taught together by senior IIT professors and the regular college faculty.

Other important feature of the QEEE's 'Direct to Student' programme is that it will be supported by supplemental evening e-tutorials by senior students and industry experts in a study circle setting. Subsequently, 90 minute of these e-tutorials will be kicked off initially. E-labs too will be a part of the larger plan which will include real time online access to experiments conducted at top five labs. The plan will also comprise of e-books and vocational augmentation courses.
The programme which is designed by a team of experts under Ashok Jhunjhunwala of IIT Madras will have each semester of 15 lectures. The uncovered portions of the syllabi will be taught by the resident faculty and students will be able to access lectures by lab tutors.
Though the initiative is being highly acknowledged but there are objections too being for this “tele-teaching” method. Kushal Sen of IIT Delhi said video lectures, while enriching learning experience, “are not a replacement for teachers”. “It will, however, help students improve as they will get access to top professors.”According to him, the lack of practical experiments is a major drawback of tele-teaching.
