The University Grants Commission (UGC) is set to launch a self-assessment platform for Indian students. UGC chief M Jagadesh Kumar announced that union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan will be launching a self-paced interactive learning and assessment platform for students to prepare for competitive and other exams. This new platform will be called SATHEE which stands for Self Assessment Test and Help for Entrance Exams.

According to the UGC chairman, SATHEE is scheduled to be launched on March 6 at 10:45 am by the Minister of Education, Dharmendra Pradhan. This platform is a new initiative by the Ministry of Education, in association with the Indian Institute of Technology, (IIT) Kanpur. The main objective of this new platform is to give students a self-paced interactive learning and assessment platform for them to prepare for competitive and other exams.

SATHEE platform plans to “bridge the gap for the students in society who can’t afford the costly entrance exam guidance and coaching,” UGC Chief Kumar tweeted. “SATHEE aims to make the students learn the concepts and focus on their weak topics so they feel confident to give any exams by watching videos prepared by IIT and IISc faculty members,” he added.

The UGC chairman also shared the official YouTube link to the launch event, which will be activated on March 6. The SATHEE websites - one for Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and another for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) have already been created. The websites are interactive in nature with subject-wise faculty and tips on how to crack the entrance exam. Students can select the subject they want to learn and clear their doubts as well through a Google form that is available on the respective sites.

Meanwhile, Pradhan and his Australian counterpart, Jason Clare will be signing an agreement soon to enhance student mobility between India and Australia. Clare recently asserted that this collaboration with India will be the “broadest and most favourable recognition agreement”. Australia’s education minister is currently on a visit to India till March 3. The meeting will be focussed on working towards promoting partnerships and collaboration between institutions of the countries.

[ad_1] Blood sample for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) test Jarun011 | Istock | Getty Images U.S. Food and Drug Administration staff on Tuesday said Pfizer's vaccine that protects infants from respiratory syncytial virus has "generally favorable" safety data. The FDA staff made the conclusion in briefing documents ahead of a meeting on Thursday when a panel of external advisors to the agency will discuss whether to recommend full approval of the RSV shot . The advisors will vote on whether Pfizer's late-stage clinical trial data on the vaccine supports its safety and efficacy. The FDA typically follows the advice of its advisory committees, but is not required to do so. The agency is slated to make a decision on whether to clear the shot in August before RSV season in the fall. If approved, Pfizer's jab would become the world's first vaccine that protects infants against RSV.  RSV usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms. But infants and older ad...

[ad_1] LONDON: Casemiro scored twice as Manchester United turned on the style to beat 10-man Reading 3-1 and reach the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday as Tottenham forward Son Heung-min ended his recent goal drought. On a day lacking major shocks, there were wins for Premier League strugglers Leeds, Leicester and Southampton but Fulham were held by Championship side Sunderland. United – fourth in the Premier League and within touching distance of a place in the League Cup final – produced more compelling evidence they are back on track under new manager Erik ten Hag . The home side took the lead at Old Trafford in the 54th minute when Anthony produced a defence-splitting pass to find Brazil teammate Casemiro, who lifted the ball over goalkeeper Joe Lumley. Four minutes later United were two up, when Casemiro let fly with a stunning strike from outside the box to find the bottom corner. With the home side brimming with confidence, substitute Fred produced an audacious flic...
