disabilities

Dear all,

 

I am shocked and pained to learn that DU is not allowing it's blind
candidates to use computer and screen reader for giving the written
examination in line with the 2018 / 2013 guidelines (subject to the ongoing
dispute's outcome). And this is coming officially from the authorities. What
is the examination policy of DU for all it's students be it regular or be it
distance learning mode students?

 

How active is the equal opportunity cell of DU? What steps have been taken
by the EOC to ensure that the university policies are in line with the
guidelines issued by MSJE and as forwarded by UGC for compliance? If anyone
has any circular issued by the controller of examination of DU or any other
policy on examination for persons with disabilities for DU students, then
please email me on amarj...@amarjain.com <mailto:amarj...@amarjain.com> .

 

Any student who is doing law from the DU itself? Not looking for other
private universities / colleges.

 

Regards,

Amar Jain

Hi,

At least, I am not aware of any incident in recent days that anyone is
being denied from writing their exams on Computer in University of
Delhi. In fact, people are allowed to write their exams on computer
and many in the past have done so and many are writing their exams on
computer these days as well.

Re: [AI] Delhi University-examination policy for people with disabilities

[Mahesh S. Panicker]

As far as I know, there are no fresh instructuions to colleges
stopping students from writing the exams on computer. Students are
otherwise allowed to write their exams on PC.

Thanks Aparna-that is what I was expecting.

In this matter, there is a response stating that we have no such arrangements.

Appreciate your positive response. Thanks.

Re: [AI] Delhi University-examination policy for people with disabilities

[Aparna Sachdev]

Hi
I’ve not heard of anything of the sort happening - but I’m only in contact with 
students, so I don’t know what’s happening on the authorities side of things. A 
friend is typing her exam this time, and she hasn’t had any trouble with it. 
I’ve typed mine till 2018, and that wasn’t a problem either. Have they 
officially issued a statement or something specifically saying that giving the 
exam on the computer wouldn’t be allowed? Because that would just be a setback 
of epic proportions.

[AI] Delhi University-examination policy for people with disabilities

[Amar Jain]

Dear all,

 

I am shocked and pained to learn that DU is not allowing it's blind
candidates to use computer and screen reader for giving the written
examination in line with the 2018 / 2013 guidelines (subject to the ongoing
dispute's outcome). And this is coming officially from the authorities. What
is the examination policy of DU for all it's students be it regular or be it
distance learning mode students?

 

How active is the equal opportunity cell of DU? What steps have been taken
by the EOC to ensure that the university policies are in line with the
guidelines issued by MSJE and as forwarded by UGC for compliance? If anyone
has any circular issued by the controller of examination of DU or any other
policy on examination for persons with disabilities for DU students, then
please email me on amarj...@amarjain.com  .

 

Any student who is doing law from the DU itself? Not looking for other
private universities / colleges.

 

Regards,

Amar Jain
