Srinagar, Jan 13: Prof. Srikant Mohapatra , Pro-Vice Chancellor, IGNOU on Friday launched the newly developed 13 Web Enabled Academic Support (WEAS) programs portals along with the WEAS specific websites for 13 Schools in a virtual meeting organized by the NCIDE.

Web Enabled Academic Support, commonly known as WEAS, is a scheme initiated by the National Centre for Innovation in Distance Education (NCIDE) at IGNOU aimed at providing an interactive one-stop programme portal to help the distance learners in getting academic support on the programme they are enrolled in.
WEAS is an interactive one-stop programme portal for providing academic support to the distance learners, with components like learning content in the form of digital self-learning material, learning resources like audio books, videos, articles, OER, weekly quiz, and FAQs related to the programme.

The distance learners of different programmes, particularly low enrolment programmes have extensively used the Web Enabled Academic Support platform for accessing different types of online resources and for interaction with their teachers and peers. The WEAS portals also hosts the recorded sessions of web-counselling conducted for various programmes by the faculty members. 
It also facilitates the students of the programmes with large enrolments like BSCG programme of School of Sciences. It caters to the learning needs of thousands of learners and has a pool of learning resources including links to available virtual labs. 
WEAS portal  hosts about 45 programmes and 4 disciplines. The number of WEAS portal is increasing day by day. Objective is to develop WEAS portals for all the ODL programmes being offered by the IGNOU. The  WEAS portal can be accessed through: https://sites.google.com/ignou.ac.in/weas
