With an IIT education now available on an Internet through YouTube, Anna University is getting set to join the ranks of those offering video lectures by its professors on the Web. This will help to maintain quality education at a time when quality faculty are in short supply, according to Vice-Chancellor P. Mannar Jawahar.
On Wednesday morning, Electronics and Communication Engineering professor N. Kumaravel delivered his weekly one-and-a-half hour lecture on digital signal processing from a studio on Anna University’s Guindy campus. Thanks to the educational satellite EDUSAT, he was heard by over 500 students in ten classrooms scattered across the State.
It did not matter that students of Vel Tech Engineering College in Avadi were sitting in a well-equipped acoustic hall set aside for the purpose, while those at the Sree Sowdambika College of Engineering in Virudhunagar were crowded into plastic chairs in a badly-lit room with ceiling fans disrupting the sound quality.
