6. BOTTOM UP APPROACH AND PAPERLESS
States/UTs are uploading their Position Papers on 25 thematic areas on Tech Platform
These inputs will go into preparation of Position papers at national level, and further
as inputs for NCF
Entire process is paperless: A Tech Platform has been builtto facilitate automation of
the entire process
Tech platform supports preparation of District level consultations, mobile app-based
surveys, and development of position papers by the State Focus Groups in 25
areas/themes
The platform utilizes Machine Learning (ML) for consolidation and summarization of
consultations / opinions.
NSC had set up a MandateGroup for guiding the NCF process focusing on
interconnections among four stages (5+3+3+4); release of document which will be the
precursor for the Curriculum Frameworks.
