Development of open and distance education and open educational resources is imperative to achieve the objectives of expansion, excellence and inclusion in higher education. More than one-fi fth of the students enrolled in higher education are in the Open and Distance Education stream.
NKC recommendations on distance education focus on creating a national ICT infrastructure, improving regulatory structures, developing web based common open resources, establishing a credit bank and providing a national testing service. To supplement this, NKC also recommends that the production of quality content and leveraging global open educational resources, needs to be focused on in a comprehensive manner. We need to encourage open access for all materialresearch papers, books, periodicals etc.
