Course Overview

Technical education has witnessed considerable growth in the last two decades. However, its quality faces criticism as the educational system’s various subcomponents, like the input, instructional procedures, curriculum, resources, etc., require improvement. To introduce change in this system, systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of data are crucial. This is where educational research comes into play, and the Research in Technical Education programme explains its numerous aspects.

The Research in Technical Education course by Swayam is an eight-week curriculum that helps teachers understand the essentials of teaching-learning and its relevant areas. The programme syllabus covers vital topics that will help you obtain the skills for defining and choosing research problems and describing research methodologies. You will be skilled in collecting data, formulating research proposals, and other critical activities.

Designed by the National Institute of Technical Teachers Training and Research, Chandigarh, the Research in Technical Education training is an AICTE-approved FDP. Upon satisfying all the eligibility conditions, you can also earn the verified e-certificates to display your acquired fluency in this domain and seek career opportunities.
