AI literacy must for teachers to ensure good use of tools by students: panel
While the deep penetration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in India is a serious concern, it could be turned into an opportunity with structured sensitisation and training programmes for both teachers and users, speakers at a panel discussion said on Monday. A way forward would be AI literacy for teachers to ensure good use of AI in educational institutions, including schools. There need to be clear guidelines developed by academics on what these tools can be used for and these guidelines should be continuously monitored, the panelists stressed. The discussion was the first of a series of dialogues started by Tamil Nadu State Council for Higher Education (TANSCHE), titled Uyarkalvi Uraiyadalgal, and the topic was 'Impact of Generative AI on the Future of Education and Employment'. Gayathri Devi Jayan, Indian Chapter President, Applied AI Association, said that children in the education system should be thinking more laterally rather than following a pattern. 'AI follows patterns. We are not AI, we are humans. How do we bring that into the curriculum should be the point of discussion,' she stressed. B. Ravindran, Head, Department of Data Science and AI, and Head, Wadhwani School of Data Science and AI, IIT Madras, said that popular LLMs (Large Language Models) have recorded significant biases in their responses. For example, when prompted about higher education opportunities in India, 'almost 80 % of the recommendations are asking you to go to the US or to Europe; they don't recommend higher study institutions in India even though the student is asking [about] India'. There was a need to step back and think about what could be responsible use of AI in the Indian context. V. Ravindran, Director, Institute of Mathematical Sciences, said that AI was a sophisticated tool that mimics our brain and awareness on what it is and how it works should be brought to children at school level because, if used wrongly, their cognitive skills could be hampered and interpersonal relations and emotions can be affected. Industry, too, was incentivising the use of minimal resources to maximise output and, therefore, the right mix of human expertise and AI tools are required to optimise operations, said Dhinakaran Vinayagamurthy, Lead, Quantum Innovation Centre, IBM Quantum India. Data bias and quality of output in AI models, he added, was much more of a serious concern in the industry. Earlier, inaugurating the discussion series, Govi. Chezhiaan, Higher Education Minister, said that for the first time in decades, the State government this fiscal allocated Rs. 60 crore for refurbishing laboratories in higher education institutions strengthening the foundations for development of Tamil Nadu. Besides, two basic science research centres are coming in Chennai and Coimbatore at a cost of Rs. 100 crores. Delivering the keynote address, Lakshmi Narayanan, Managing Trustee, Chennai Mathematical Institute, said that based on the available data, there was a case to demand more investment in higher education from the State government. M.P. Vijayakumar, Vice-President, TANSCHE, said that in addition to the labs and the research centres, a science park would be built on East Coast Road at a cost of Rs. 100 crore and two STEM laboratories would be established in Madurai and Coimbatore at a cost of Rs. 10 crore each. P. Shankar, Higher Education Secretary, spoke. J. Innocent Divya, Commissioner, Directorate of Technical Education, and E. Sundaravalli, Commissioner, Directorate of Collegiate Education, were present.

Govt mulls web portal to clear 8cr dues of pvt vehicle owners
Bhubaneswar: State govt is planning the implementation of a web-based system to address concerns over unpaid dues, amounting to Rs 8 crore, owed to owners of private vehicles hired by various departments. The issue was discussed during a high-level meeting presided over by chief secretary Manoj Ahuja recently. "A comprehensive web portal should be developed in collaboration with the National Informatics Centre. The substantial outstanding dues of Rs 8 crore shall be cleared by the transport department following necessary re-appropriation from current budgetary allocations. Any shortfall in the non-programme head will be addressed during the supplementary budget," the minutes read. The transport department highlighted that govt departments regularly requisition private vehicles for various official purposes administrative work and emergency services. Under this framework, regional transport officers facilitate arrangement of vehicles at the behest of district collectors. "However, the role of RTOs is strictly limited to vehicle procurement, while the payment responsibility lies with the requisitioning departments, which often face delays in funds disbursement," a transport official said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 4BHK Luxury Duplex starting ₹3.60 Cr* The Gardens II, Vadodara 4BHK,The Gardens II Learn More Undo "The delay in payments has led to frustration among vehicle owners, who frequently resort to protests at RTO offices demanding their rightful compensation. These grievances have been escalated to the transport department, necessitating a comprehensive solution to this recurring problem," the minutes stated. The govt is considering an alternative approach of implementing a tender-based system for empanelling interested vehicle owners, creating a pre-approved pool of service providers for future requirements. "The transport department will be allocated a specific budget for vehicle hiring, ensuring prompt payments through direct online transfers to vehicle owners' accounts, thereby eliminating intermediary delays and enhancing transparency in the entire process," the official said.

Student traffic volunteer initiative restarts in twin cities
1 2 Bhubaneswar: Commissionerate police on Monday reintroduced the student traffic volunteer (STV) initiative, which had been suspended since 2020 due to Covid-19 pandemic restrictions. Under the initiative, 53 college students, including 23 female volunteers, have been enlisted to support traffic management operations in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack. Commissioner of police S Dev Datta Singh said, "The STV initiative will enhance traffic management and encourage community participation in maintaining road discipline." Of the volunteers, 35 will be positioned at traffic junctions in Bhubaneswar, while 18 will serve in Cuttack, police sources said. Each volunteer will work for a minimum of 3 hours daily, receiving Rs 200 as compensation. Volunteers have the flexibility to choose their duty timings and locations. "Volunteers will collaborate with existing traffic police to strengthen road safety measures and ensure better adherence to traffic rules. Their responsibilities encompass managing traffic flow, helping pedestrians cross roads safely, and notifying authorities of traffic violations," additional CP Narasingha Bhol said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Knee pain prices might surprise you Knee pain | search ads Find Now Undo The STV programme addresses the shortage of staff in the capital's traffic police wing, which currently has about 500 personnel. Despite significant growth in the city's area and vehicle population, the number of traffic police personnel remains inadequate. Singh recently submitted a proposal to the govt requesting additional personnel for crime control and traffic management. The STV scheme, introduced in Jan 2017 in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack, encourages student participation in traffic regulation. It also aimed to address staff shortages while offering students opportunities for self-reliance and disciplinary learning. Before its suspension, 400 college students in Bhubaneswar and 200 in Cuttack were supporting traffic management operations. The revival of the programme follows the March launch of the 'traffic warden' system in Bhubaneswar, where ex-servicemen regulate traffic at various city intersections.
