The educational sector always relied upon technology for its advancement-be it production or dissemination of educational resources-for overcoming the geographical and time barriers and other constraints related to access, equity and excellence in higher education. All over the world, both public and private agencies of education are involved in various initiatives for reaching the learners effectively. The main Governmental agencies in India were never behind in utilizing the advances in information and communication technology for the betterment of education at all levels. This paper is a part of a doctoral research on the contribution of one of the main agencies of education of India-UGC Media Centres under CEC-in the domain of educational telecast and webcast. The paper attempts to investigate the awareness and utilisation of educational telecast and webcast by the students. The findings are expected to shed light on the strategies to be adopted by the concerned agencies in popularizing and promoting educational telecasts and webcasts. Introduction The education sector worldwide has always used the services of technology in reaching the learners. Starting with paper and print technology with the help of postal service, the educators were able to reach millions of people effectively, and the popularity of the method is still evident with the plethora of correspondence and distance courses available even at present. The correspondence aspect soon gave way to electronic communication while retaining its hold. When radio was introduced, for some considerable time, its educational broadcasts became very popular. It can said to be the first electronic medium used to reach the distance learners. Then as television came in to picture, the popularity of it surpassed that of radio as it could combine audio and video aspects of communication. Owing to its huge accessibility factor and penetration power, television from the beginning itself was utilized by the education sector in the dissemination of educational content. Television remained the most effective platform for this purpose for a long time. When internet took over the world, television and the educational telecasts received a setback in most of the developed and developing countries. The use of internet as a repertoire for educational resources / content has also come a long way with more and more online and interactive courses and specially designed platforms. With Direct-to-Home networks and many exclusive channels for education, television is trying for a comeback while internet for education is still moving ahead with momentum. Today all over the world, educational institutions, both private and government, are heavily involved in the production and dissemination of educational resources to the learners utilizing the advances in information and communication technology, overcoming the geographical and time barriers and other constraints related to access, equity and excellence in higher education. In India, when television was first introduced in 1959, the priorities were in the order "educate, inform and entertain the masses". At first, with respect of education, television was used mainly for imparting new and scientific methods of farming to the farmers through programmes like Krishidarsan. Then the educators used its accessibility to impart education to primary, secondary and college level students. The telecasts of educational programmes, especially prepared for college going students, were immensely popular for some considerable time. The availability of an exclusive satellite, EduSat, for education further fostered the growth of telecasts particularly with the interactive aspect of EduSat transmissions. With the advancements in ICT coupled with low tariffs for

Studies have claimed that use of multimedia technologies motivate and stimulate the learning of students as compared to using traditional teaching methods alone. Multimedia aids are therefore significant in effective teaching learning process. It is even more significant in open and distance learning where the learners are separated from their teachers by distances. The study has been done by using both qualitative and quantitative methods. Data has been collected from all the fifteen Open Universities of India. In this study, the researchers have attempted to understand the availability and delivery mechanism of different multimedia courseware in institutions imparting distance learning in India. The study will also provide interesting findings like commonly used or most preferred multimedia technology in these institutions.

The authors at the Department of Electronics Accreditation for Computer Courses (India) present the basis and a way forward for a knowledge-based economy in India through expanded utilization of e-learning techniques. This paper makes a strong case for investing in information technologies for increasing the human resource capital to raise the economy of the country. In a country of more than one billion people and of continental dimension, economic development can only be reached through better utilization of e-learning. Here we have reviewed various elearning aspects including the technologies and projects to facilitate e-learning, and have proposed some suggestions for improving the management of e-learning. Academic bodies such as the University Grants Commission, the Knowledge Commission, the Institutes of Information Technology, and software companies should pool their efforts to establish knowledge processing techniques to help teachers and students pursue learning, and thus contribute to long-term economic development.

The new millennium heralds exciting opportunities to diversify the ways in which education is offered. Everything went electronic; today the words like e-health, e-government, e-shopping, e-business and e-learning are frequently encountered. A greater flexibility is provided through online access to learning – when, where and how to do it. Breaking the shackles of tradition empowers all learners, as their diverse needs are increasingly accommodated in education programs that are supported by information technology. E-learning is one important avenue for promoting greater access to all learners. The rapid development of technology makes it possible for almost anyone to access computing resources. These types of technologies include special hardware and software that allow individuals with a wide range of skills to make productive use of computers. The generation of humans whose generational location places their birth and developmental experiences during a time of widespread access to digital computing technologies and whose exposure to and experience with those technologies led to a technological comfort and expertise with that technology that surpasses those of prior generations. In this paper authors discussed E-learning, Initiated by Government of India, and E-learning Advantages for digital generation.

Open Access is an initiative that aims to make scientific research freely available to all. To date our community has made over 100 million downloads. It’s based on principles of collaboration, unobstructed discovery, and, most importantly, scientific progression. As PhD students, we found it difficult to access the research we needed, so we decided to create a new Open Access publisher that levels the playing field for scientists across the world. How? By making research easy to access, and puts the academic needs of the researchers before the business interests of publishers.

We are a community of more than 103,000 authors and editors from 3,291 institutions spanning 160 countries, including Nobel Prize winners and some of the world’s most-cited researchers. Publishing on IntechOpen allows authors to earn citations and find new collaborators, meaning more people see your work not only from your own field of study, but from other related fields too.

Brief introduction to this section that descibes Open Access especially from an IntechOpen perspective
