The University of Hyderabad has constituted a task force to outline a road map for the resumption of teaching-learning activities that were suspended after March 15 due to Covid-19 outbreak.
The 12-member task force will be chaired by Prof Vinod Pavarala, the former dean of the Sarojini Naidu School of Arts & Communication, and consult various stakeholders of the university.
“This includes practical steps for starting classes for ongoing students as well as for those who will be joining the university this academic year. The task force will examine and recommend a range of teaching methods incorporating face-to-face, online and blended modes of delivery of course content,” reads a press release issued by the university.
The group will recommend appropriate measures to upgrade the institution’s ICT infrastructure, so that it is able to address the challenges of online education. It will also examine the scheduling and mode of the university’s annual entrance examination that is held across the country for admission to its various post-graduate and research programmes. The last date for submitting applications for this year’s admissions was June 30. Further, the group has been asked to monitor the implementation of the decisions taken by the university on the abovementioned matters and will remain in operation up to December 31.
