The SWAYAM platform, launched by the Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India, provides Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) aimed at enhancing learning opportunities for students. NCERT is offering online courses for Classes 11 and 12 across various subjects through SWAYAM in different cycles.
In the 13th cycle, NCERT is offering 28 online courses for Classes 11 and 12, covering 11 subjects, including Accountancy, Business Studies, Biology, Chemistry, Economics, Geography, Mathematics, Physics, Psychology, English, and Sociology.
