Earlier, Dr. S. S. Jena, Chairman, NIOS, in his introductory remarks said that
this was a first of its kind workshop in India, which was organized keeping in
view the huge target of 97 million learners in the age group of
14-18 years who would be eligible for Secondary Education. “Virtual Open
Schooling is a significant concept in many parts of the world which could be
utilized to create an alternate model of education for such a group of learners”,
he said. Dr. Jena hoped that this workshop would develop a consortium approach
to Virtual Open Schooling in India in consultation with State open Schools, by
utilizing the available resources including ICT. These issues will be discussed to
be relevantly integrated with the Government of India’s RMSA.

Addressing the gathering, Dr. Sanjaya Mishra, Director, Commonwealth
Educational Media Centre for Asia (CEMCA), New Delhi explained that ICT
would be used to leverage the existing Open Schooling structure that exists in
the country in the form of the National Consortium for Open Schooling (NCOS),
thereby integrating the concept of Virtual Open Schooling and making it more
effective and efficient. This would help learners to enroll for courses from any
system thereby enabling Transfer of Credit and Certification from a system of
their choice. To formalize the process of developing Virtual Open Schooling in
India, an MOU was signed between NIOS and CEMCA by Sh. U.N. Khaware,
Secretary, NIOS and Dr. Sanjaya Mishra, Director, CEMCA being the respective
signatories.

A delegation led by H.E Farook Wardhak, Minister of Education, Islamic Republic
of Afghanistan visited the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) on
12th September 2012 to study the feasibility of establishing a credible Open
Distance Learning (ODL) system with a view to facilitate school education in
Afghanistan. Speaking on the occasion, Sri. Wardhak expressed his gratitude
for the support extended by India for rehabilitation of Afghanistan, especially,
its education system. Pointing out the massive challenge of providing “Education
for All” by 2015 with 40% of its population out of school, he emphasized on the
need for Afghanistan to make use of the potentialities & advantages of the
Open schooling as a major step in this direction.

Dr. S.S. Jena, Chairman, NIOS, while presenting a feasibility report for setting
up an Open School in Afghanistan elaborated the disadvantages such as its
difficult terrain, harsh climate etc., which stood in the way of the educational
development of the 42nd most populated country with a rural population of
76.18% and an adult literacy rate of only 26%. About 5 million children in the
school-going age are not in school with a large number of girls dropping out,
due to various reasons such as climatic condition, limited access for rural areas,
lack of female teachers etc.

Dr. Jena proposed that the inherent characteristics of open schooling would be
feasible for such a situation that exists in Afghanistan with an Accelerated
Learning Programme in General Education for youths in the 13-25 yrs. as the
priority target group. Open Schooling, he said, may be launched on a pilot
basis in a few provinces of Afghanistan having the priority target group along
with mentoring support from a well established institution such as the NIOS.

The celebrations began with a Blood Donation Camp in collaboration with Red
Cross Society of Bhubaneswar. The programme was inaugurated by
Mr. Rushi Kumar Rath, NIOS Regional Director. Over 40 learners along with
NIOS staff and facilitators enthusiastically participated in the camp. A capacity
Building workshop on HIV, Hepatitis Safe Blood Donation and Transfusion was
conducted before the donation. Keeping in view the acute shortage of safe
blood in Bhubaneswar Dr. Rakhal Chandra Behera, Blood Bank Official, Municipal
Hospital, Bhubaneswar sensitized the learners to various safety measures
observed during blood donation. Sensitizing the learners to the dangers of HIV
infection through the indiscriminate use of needles and blood transfusion the
workshop was helpful in empowering learners to donate and seek HIV and
Hepatitis safe blood. The camp resulted in collection of 26 units of blood. All the
participants felt it was their way of showing respect to their teachers who
dedicate their lives to educate the future of nation.

With studies being hampered by ailments, Ankita Payal found
it difficult to continue education under formal schooling. Having
learnt about the NIOS from her cousin, Ankita enrolled for the
Senior Secondary course in the Bhubaneswar region. Aspiring
to join the Civil Services after completing her studies, Ankita
shared that the flexibilities offered by the NIOS in terms of its
Courses and On Demand Examination System (ODES) were
exceptional.

Ankita is a regular participant in various programmes conducted
by MITRA, the Adolescent Friendly Centre in the NIOS Regional Centre,
Bhubaneswar. She also participated in a national level creative writing
competition organized by United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). She
was one of the five shortlisted candidates out of one hundred and fifty nine
NIOS learners whose writing pieces were forwarded for the national
competition against students of CBSE, NVS and KVS from the entire country.
Ankita’s joy knew no bounds when she was informed that excerpts from her
writings had found a place in the UNFPA Desk Calendar. She felt that the
‘Creative Writing Clinic’ organized by MITRA helped her immensely in honing
her writing skills and urges others to come forward to use these facilities.
