Section C: Long Answer Questions
10.SWAYAM and NPTEL are both online learning platforms, but they have different goals.
SWAYAM offers courses in many subjects, such as arts, commerce, and professional studies.
NPTEL, on the other hand, focuses only on engineering and technical education. SWAYAM is
managed by the Ministry of Education, while NPTEL is run by IITs and IISc. SWAYAM is useful
for all kinds of students, including school and college learners, while NPTEL is mainly for
engineering students. Both platforms provide free courses and certificates, which help
students gain knowledge and improve their career opportunities.
11.MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) in India face some difficulties. Many students do
not have good internet access, and some courses are only in English, making it hard for
regional language speakers to understand. Also, many people do not know about these
platforms, and some students start courses but do not complete them.To improve online
education, courses should be available in regional languages, and internet facilities should
be made better, especially in rural areas. Adding live classes, discussions, and interactive
sessions can help students stay engaged. Universities should also recognize these online
courses and certificates for jobs and higher education. If these steps are taken, MOOCs can
become a powerful tool to provide quality education to students all over India.
The "Human Behavior" course on the SWAYAM portal focuses on understanding the
psychological, social, and cultural aspects that influence human behavior. Key learning
outcomes include:
1. Understanding Human Behavior: Learn about different psychological theories,
personality types, and human motivations.
2. Cognitive and Emotional Processes: Study how emotions, cognition, and perception
shape behavior.
3. Social Behavior: Explore social influences, group dynamics, and interpersonal
relationships.
4. Behavior in Different Contexts: Examine how human behavior changes across different
environments (workplaces, communities, etc.).
5. Applications: Apply this knowledge to real-life situations, including conflict resolution,
leadership, and decision-making.
These outcomes provide a foundation for applying psychological principles to practical
settings, enhancing both personal and professional relationships.
