Anna University has proposed to introduce "web-based education" from 2006-2007 for facilitating faculty in affiliated private engineering colleges to acquire ME qualification.
This faculty improvement programme will benefit Computer Science and Information Technology teachers in the initial stage, and, in later phases, contents would be developed for extending web-education for faculties in other departments. The proposal will be implemented once the Academic Council approves it, D. Viswanathan, Vice-Chancellor, told presspersons on Wednesday.
Contact classes would be held for faculties seeking to enhance their qualification in the university's proposed five zonal centres, which were likely to come up within a year in different parts of the State. These Centres, besides facilitating administration, would be the hubs for research and development under guidance of retired teachers of Indian Institutes of Technology, and the Indian Institute of Science, Dr. Viswanathan said.
