Instructional System

The instructional system of IGNOU is more learner-oriented and learner-centred. In this system, the learner is an active participant in the teaching-learning process. Most of the instruction is imparted through distance modes of communication rather than face-to-face modes of communication. The University follows a multi-media approach for instruction. So, the instructional system of PGDSS also follows multi-media approach i.e. self-instructional print material, audio-video programmes, assignments, face-to-face counselling sessions / contact sessions, project work, teleconferencing and interactive radio counselling, among others.
