Milan Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan will launch SATHEE – A Self Assessment Test & Help for Entrance Exam Platform today, March 6. SATHEE is for the candidates who are preparing for upcoming competitive exams like National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), Joint Entrance Examination (JEE). , and others.
This self-paced assessment platform has been developed by the University Grants Commission (UGC), Ministry of Education (MoE) and Indian Institute of Technology, (IIT) Kanpur. The launch event will also be streamed live on the official YouTube channel of UGC.
The main objective behind this new learning platform is to bridge the gap between the aspirants who can afford additional coaching classes and training sessions for entrance exams and those who cannot. Through this new learning platform, the coaching experience will be available to all.
SATHEE will also be beneficial for candidates preparing for Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) Recruitment Exam, Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) Exam and Common Admission Test (CAT) Exam.
The Self Assessment Test & Help for Entrance Exams platform will have specially designed videos by faculty members, professors and teachers from IITs and Indian Institute of Science (IISc) to help students prepare for competitive exams. Through these videos students will learn the concepts and revise the topics in which they are weak.
On March 2, UGC chairman M Jagadesh Kumar put out a tweet stating that SATHEE will allow students to have self-centred interactive learning sessions as well as an assessment schedule to prepare for competitive entrance and other examinations.
How will the SATHEE platform work?
SATHEE websites – one for JEE and another for NEET have already been created. Through the google form available on the official websites, candidates can choose the subject they want to study and also get their queries answered.
The learning platform will have subject-specific faculty and advice on how to crack the entrance test. Study material in English, Hindi and other regional languages of India will be available at the main sites for preparation of competitive exams.
In 2020, the Ministry of Education launched a National Test Abhyas (NTA), which provides free mock tests to JEE and NEET aspirants. It helped students to prepare for exams at their home during COVID lockdown. The initiative was taken because students were unable to attend their coaching classes during the pandemic.
