Ref: Oral Instructions of the Commissioner of School Education
  • Attention to all District Education Officers, with the aim to ensure that capacity building of all teachers in the state can be carried out simultaneously, SCERT has decided to release online courses on the DIKSHA platform, that can be accessed by all teachers using their Andhra Pradesh e-Knowledge Exchange (APeKX) IDs. The objective is to ensure that all teachers in the state can be trained on a continuous basis. Online courses also ensure that teachers can complete the course in their own home without having to attend in-person workshops for training.
  • As part of this initiative, SCERT has created an online course on DIKSHA for the dissemination of the results of the NAS and SLAS surveys.
The objectives of this course are to:
  • Sensitize teachers about large scale assessments such as SLAS and NAS
  • a. Provide information on students' performance in these assessments b. Introduce post NAS interventions (Reading and understanding assessments, developing Learning Outcome based classroom strategies etc.) C. Enable teachers make targeted and informed interventions to enhance student learning and performance in subsequent assessments.
  • The completion of this course is essential for teachers to utilize assessment results and insights to improve their students' learning levels.
Three separate courses have been created. Each teacher must complete the course relevant for them:
