Center Owned by HT MediaULLAS initiative: Students in teaching courses to be mandatorily engaged in adult literacy drive
What's behind this
New guidelines for the Centre’s ULLAS programme require student‑teachers in teacher‑education courses to teach five to eight non‑literate learners and receive academic credit only after those learners are certified as literate. At the same time, the Central Information Commission has recommended that the University Grants Commission and the Central Board of Secondary Education set up monitoring mechanisms to ensure universities and affiliated schools provide mandatory accessibility facilities.
