NIMS E-LIBRARY ACADEMIC SUPPORT-- THE KNOWLEDGE OASIS
Dear Prospective Distance Learners,
You are certainly benefited from our NIMS DISTANCE STUDENTS' COMPANION where you find all sorts of information that makes students feel proud. You are empowered now with prerequisites of pursuing a course/program, such as, knowledge and skills up to a desired level in terms of eligibility, program structure, course outline, scheme and evaluation pattern. Our exemplary Question Bank( e-format) has appreciated many of you and there is continuous demands from students and stakeholders for more and more services and support in this regard.
Once you are acquainted with course outline and schemes, you as a potential learner might be searching for adequate, relevant and valid sources of knowledge on the course which has been currently pursued by you. Our effort at NIMS for distance learners in the form of THE KNOWLEDGE OASIS is primarily a mode of e-content delivery which is if available in print form then may be called as Self Learning Material world over. The current effort of e-Library Support will facilitate the process of searching more and more on knowledge and skills in one or more areas, exploring innovations and inventions, creation of horizontal and vertical linkages between terminologies, concepts, courses, programs and disciplines at large.
While our effort to make our students independent and empowered with latest developments, we are honest of acknowledging blog spot.com for their contribution towards connecting you with all our ideas and innovations and experimentation. We have not generated anything novel in the contents that are available to you in the form of e-Library Support rather we have collected, scrutinized, validated and then compiled set of information on a course/program. This process will reduce the time wastage on your part while browsing through the internet or websites for material. Some of the times, you might have felt bored while goggling or scanning through or browsing through the websites and suddenly you found server is too slow to download material. Consequently, you land up with no solutions which brings worries and disappointments.
Hence, the current effort at DDE, NIMS University will go a long way in facilitating the process of academic transactions between distance learners and NIMS University. It will have salutary effects on teaching and learning process to prove that all NIMS Distance Learners are self-made, self-monitored and well networked students who deserve laurels in their entire endeavour. Good Luck.
