| Bangalore, 1st March 2007: The Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) will now be known as Manipal University. The 54-year-old Academy reached this decision in December 2006 and the change will affect all MAHE campuses globally. From the coming academic year Manipal University will also introduce online entrance tests for admissions to their professional courses.
Speaking about the name change from MAHE to Manipal University, Dr. H.S. Ballal, Pro-Chancellor, Manipal University said “In 1993 MAHE was granted the privileged status of a university by the Indian government. The word ‘Academy’ does not indicate the status of a university and this has led to some confusion in the minds of people of foreign countries. Deemed Universities were not hitherto permitted by the University Grants Commission which controls the Deemed Universities, to prefix or affix the word ‘university’ to their name. Taking note of this fact and based on our request, the UGC has, by its Notification No.F.6-1(II)/2006 (CPP-I) dated 13th September 2006, permitted Deemed to be Universities to use the word ‘university’ in their name provided it is indicated along with the name that the universities are established under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956 to distinguish the Deemed to be Universities from universities established by the legislature. The Manipal Academy of Higher Education has, in pursuance of the UGC Notification and approval by its Trust and Board of Management, changed its name to MANIPAL UNIVERSITY by a Notification dated 20th December 2006. We believe that this new identity will help us attract more students especially from foreign lands”.
Manipal University has always set itself apart from other universities by using technology in all aspects and by being a student friendly digital campus. In the last academic year, Manipal University had conducted online exams for admissions to postgraduate medical and dental courses. Online entrance examinations will now be conducted for admission to courses such as MBBS, BDS, BE, BPharm, BSc Nursing, BHM and BA in Journalism. To conduct these exams, Manipal University has adopted the latest technologies and is giving its prospective students an added advantage of taking the exams online. This is a testimony to the fact that Manipal University is one among the best forward looking universities in India.
Speaking on the online entrance exams for admissions to MBBS, BDS, BE and other professional graduate programs, Mr. Anand Sudarshan, Group President Manipal Universal Learning, said “This move of introducing online tests has been made keeping in mind students who often have to face the probability of taking two or more entrance exams on the same day. This will mean that, invariably the student takes up only one entrance exam and this reduces his prospect of having more choices. We at Manipal University will now allow candidates to schedule tests at their own convenience and allow them the flexibility. Those writing other tests will not have any difficulty, since the online test will be held over a period of time and not on a single day. Unlike other entrance examinations, the students can choose the test schedule that suits their individual requirements. This gives the student the freedom to choose the location, date & time of his choice of giving the Online Entrance Test”.
The online tests will be conducted at 19 centres which have been ergonomically designed with the latest computers for every student, high security communication network for electronic delivery of the test and use of bio-metric and hi-tech monitoring systems to prevent impersonation and foul play. Each computer is fitted with a web camera, which will take an image of the candidate every 20 minutes.

| Montessori Educators Launch Free On-Line Reading Lessons
Free reading lessons are now available on-line, thanks to Montessori Home, Inc. The interactive website features 40 mini lessons geared to beginning readers and is available at www.LearnToReadFree.com.
Montessori educators and child development specialists foresee this project as becoming the go-to website for beginning readers and their parents throughout the world. Lessons are currently available in English, with URL’s in Chinese, Spanish, French and other languages introducing the learn to read English course/
”Our free on-line website is totally child-safe,” said Bob Korngold, co-founder of Montessori Home, Inc. “All that’s needed for sign-up is for a parent to go the website and follow the instructions. There are no fees or obligations. But the lessons may also be purchased on CDs at a nominal charge since some parents do not approve of their children engaging in Internet activity.”
The on-line phonics-based, programmed reading curricula grew from the Phoenix Program Reading Workbooks that have been popular in public schools for the past 25 years. Montessori Home produces Montessori reading products and licensed electronic rights to Phoenix Program Reading Workbooks.
Korngold assembled an Internet team to bring the concept to computers with interactivity, animation and audio. The system can track children’s progress and allows them to proceed at their own pace.
Educators carefully designed the lessons around 55 words Montessori believes are the primary building blocks leading to eventual full reading ability. Using interactive word games, questions and answers, Ducky, the animated reading tutor, helps children pronounce and read simple words phonetically. The words lead to sentences as the children finish lessons and proceed to a higher reading level.
Korngold founded Montessori Home, Inc. with his wife, Carole Wolfe Korngold, founder and director of the New York’s Center for Montessori Education, the largest school in the U.S. for certification of teachers in the Montessori method. The school has graduated more than 6,000 teachers and Mrs. Korngold is currently training more than 55 teachers in San Juan, Puerto Rico. She is a past president of the American Montessori Society and was voted their highest honor, The Living Legacy.
Montessori Home Inc. provides regular and interactive books, reading cards and electronic reading games on CD and is finalizing development of a DVD product. Montessori Home is affiliated with FamilyLiteracyGroups.org, a non-profit website launched to promote literacy.
