Explanation

In chronological order the developments run: correspondence education, distance education, open education, SWAYAM MOOCs, and credit transfer through the Academic Bank of Credit.

Correspondence education came first, delivering lessons by post to learners away from campus.

Distance education broadened this with multimedia and study centres beyond mere correspondence.

Open education then removed entry barriers such as age and prior qualification, as with open universities.

SWAYAM MOOCs brought massive open online courses on a national digital platform launched in 2017.

Credit transfer through the Academic Bank of Credit is the most recent, letting online and other credits count towards a degree.
