JEE Preparation: IIT Kharagpur's Free Online Module Available Now

IIT Kharagpur has developed a free preparation module for JEE available to students on the National Digital Library of India or NDLI platform. In a recent announcement JEE Main and NEET UG have been postponed till last week of May 2020 with the Government of India urging students to prepare further for these examinations during COVID-19 lockdown. While the decision for the postponement was expected, this IIT Kharagpur module for Joint Entrance Examination or JEE preparation is expected to satisfy students' need for adequate online resources and e-learning materials to continue with their preparation.

Students can visit the NDLI website https://www.ndl.gov.in/ or https://ndl.iitkgp.ac.in/ or log on to the NDLI mobile application for accessing the JEE preparation module from IIT Kharagpur. 

A special module named 'Corona Outbreak: Study from Home' has been added to the website which contains a wide range of digital content including those preparing for competitive examinations like JEE Advanced. 

The repository contains NDLI Tutorial for JEE Advanced for 12 years and Practice Questions and Solutions for JEE Preparation. 

Content for JEE Mains for 5 years is expected to be made available soon.  

"The solutions have been prepared from the perspective of undergraduate students who have cleared JEE as well as subject matter experts and doctoral students in related areas. Hence the solutions are diverse and students can opt for their preferred methods. Further we have provided reference materials for related problems, so students can explore further the topics," explained Prof Partha Pratim Das, Joint-Principal Investigator, NDLI.

Students can browse the School option under the Corona Outbreak module or search by relevant keywords. The developers recommend registering on the portal for better user experience though the resources are available without any restrictions.

"Please visit and continue your studies. Please let us know how we can continue to support your preparations. NDLI is accessible through the web as well as mobile App. Be safe but let us be digitally active in academics and connected," says Prof PP Chakrabarti, Principal Investigator of NDLI, on his social media handle. 

He further urges to reach out to students who can be immensely benefited from this platform during this lockdown period. "Digital Libraries have become the next generation paradigm for people to empower themselves with knowledge and contribute to the knowledge gathering of this world," he added.

NDLI was developed by IIT Kharagpur under the aegis of Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India in the year 2016 as a National Mission project. MHRD has been promoting various e-learning platforms since the academic activities have been restricted in educational institutions earlier this month due to CoronaVirus outbreak. NDLI has been at the forefront of such e-learning platforms with over 4.8 crore content in more than 300 languages that can be viewed in 60+ formats apart from e-books (audiobooks, simulations, e-thesis, question papers etc.). The platform has over 55 Lakh users.

"The project, which has been collating content to democratize education for India, has shaped up to be the most promising initiative on the future of libraries from India and symbolizes a strong voice to tell the story from India's standpoint," added Prof. Das.
