National Digital Educational Architecture (NDEAR)
NDEAR (National Digital Educational Architecture) was established as part of the Digital First Mindset, under the Union Budget 2021–22, where the Center and the States/Union Territories use Digital Architecture to assist educational planning as well as teaching and learning activities.
To ensure that instructors, students, and schools have a smooth digital learning experience, NDEAR will be helpful for the Center and States in planning, managing, and supervising school education. The NDEAR’s institutional design, governance framework, technology, and data will be advantageous to both students and teachers as a whole.
The NDEAR project does not involve the creation of technological solutions for the educational ecosystem by the government. Through NDEAR, the government act as an enabler, offering a framework that allows anyone to create technology. The use of NDEAR frameworks, standards, and specifications would also qualify solutions as NDEAR compliant. Any technological solution that is NDEAR-compliant will be able to connect with other NDEAR-compliant technological solutions. State governments would be unrestricted in their efforts to develop solutions that meet their requirements.
