Accessible Science Education for All

Dear Students,

                 You have just completed SSLC examination.  We are sure you must have done well in the examination. Till your results are announced it is time to relax and plan for your course choice in PUC. You may already be engaged in dicussions with friends and family on this.

                           To make Science easy and intersting to you the department has introduced a Bridge Course for you. This is the “Bridge Curriculum”  in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology for you. Lecturers shall teach these topics for you through Doordarshan. This Bridge Curriculum coaching starts in 16^th April 2012. This continues for another three months. This programme will be  telecast on all 7 days of a week.  This programme will be telecast in the night between 9:15pm and 10:00pm. You must devote 45 minutes for this . You can watch this programme from where ever you are. There is no need for cable connection also. The detailed time table is hosted on the PU website : http://pue.kar.nic.in and KEA website:http://kea.kar.nic.in .

                        We know  by this time that you must have decided which stream ie.,  Arts/ Commerce/ Science  to opt for in PUC. This is the right time for you to watch this programme and take a decision. There is a myth that Science is difficult. It is not so in reality. If you have aptitude/interest/ ability you can join Science Stream. Language should not be a barrier. If you have studied in Kannada medium, prescribed text Books in Kannada medium for First PUC are available.  There will be no confusion regarding the selection of the text books from this year onwards.  Like your school books the Department  has prescribed text books in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology for I PUC from the academic year 2012-13.

                      The content material to be used for teaching  is on the website. You can download it.  While watching the programme keep this material before you. You  can   keep an exercise book and note down the important points while the TV lesson is going on.   There will be home assignment questions  on the website. You have to answer these questions. Answer key will also be hosted on the website . You can compare  your answer with the answer provided by the teacher and correct the same. Thus watching this programme you will be spending your time usefully and learn many new concepts. Concepts would become clear to you. This would motivate you to learn further.  If you have any doubt you can clarify it by asking questions through e-mail. You can send your questions to this e-mail id commissioner.pue@gmail.com

      First year PUC Text Books prescribed by the Department will be available in the market by this  month end.
