Instructional Study Resources

This university has a different educational philosophy than established universities in other countries. Under the Open University System, which is more learner-centered, student participation in the teaching-learning process is more widespread. The majority of training is done via distance communication rather than face-to-face interaction. The following is a list of instructional resources that the institution has made available to students for their own use.

Printed Study Materials

The institution's principal mode of instruction is print. You should spend the majority of your time reading the written materials that the university sends you on a regular basis to gain a thorough understanding of the problems discussed in the course. Printed materials would serve to complete tasks and prepare for term-end assessments.

Face-to-face contact between students and their tutors/counselors is critical to the learning process in distance education. The goal of this interaction is to resolve any concerns you may be having and to dispel any doubts you may have, which may not be achievable through other lines of communication at this time. It also gives you the chance to socialise with other students. At the Study Centres, academic advisors with years of experience are available to assist and advise you on the courses you've chosen. They'll also be able to respond to any questions you might have. Also Learn About: IGNOU distance MBA 2024

Online Study Material

Students can also use the online study materials provided by IGNOU, which are available in a variety of formats. The study guide is a digital version of a previously printed version. Analyses are in place at the college to assist them in their endeavour. In theoretical courses, there are two types of evaluation: continual assessment through assignments and a final examination at the conclusion of each semester. The final exam receives a 70% weighting, whereas all other course assignments receive a 30% weighting. You must receive a grade of at least 40% on the continuous evaluation (assignments) and 40% on the term-end test to pass a course.

End-of-Term Examination

The University holds semester-ending examinations twice a year, in June and December. Only once you have completed the course will you be able to take the examination. The term-end test, as previously indicated, is the most essential part of the grading system, accounting for roughly 70% of the entire grade. You must complete and submit your term-end examination application prior to the deadlines.

Assignments

Assignments are available on the Indira Gandhi National Open University's official website. Assignments are simply a type of ongoing evaluation. To avoid any delays in the term-end assessment system, assignments must be submitted well ahead of the deadline. When computing your final mark, the grades you receive on your assignments will be considered. Because assignments account for 30% of your overall mark, they should be treated with care.

Exams for the Semester

Semester exams are held in June and December of each year. Only once you have completed the course will you be able to take the exam. The term end test, as previously indicated, is the most essential component of the grading system, accounting for roughly 70% of the final grade.
