interactive e-content in 70 subjects across all disciplines of social sciences, arts, fine
arts and humanities, natural & mathematical sciences. Currently ePG Pathshala
contains more than 23000 texts and videos prepared by more than 5000 subject
experts with more than 3000 quiz. e-Adhyayan, UGC-Moocs and e-Pathya are three
modules for facilitating moocs through SWAYAM portal.

The National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) was initiated
by seven Indian Institutes of Technology (Bombay, Delhi, Kanpur, Kharagpur,
Madras, Guwahati and Roorkee) along with the Indian Institute of Science,
Bangalore in 2003. Five core disciplines were identified, namely, civil engineering,
computer science and engineering, electrical engineering, electronics and
communication engineering and mechanical engineering and 235 courses in
web/video format were developed in this phase.

The main goal of NPTEL Phase II (2009-14) was to build on the engineering and core
science courses launched previously in NPTEL Phase I. An additional 600 web and
video courses were created in all major branches of engineering, physical sciences at
the undergraduate and postgraduate levels and management courses at the
