 Education in SDGs 2030:- Quality education(SDG-4),
Innovation (SDG-9) & Corruption free Atmosphere (SDG-
16).
 This article tries to explore:
1) Types of deviated practices and its impact on 21st
century learners
2) How e-pedagogy & related advancement help to
ensure a deviation free education system for forming
a healthy and tech savvy 21st century learners

4. What is deviated practice ?
 Deviated practices mean those practices that are
deviated or diverted from the original intention.
 Corruption & deviated practices
What is Educational deviated practice?
 It means educational deviations from its objectives and
corrupt the education system
Why deviated practices should be controlled?
 Transparency International (2019): steal the future of
next generation
 NEP-2019: damages the honesty and integrity of
education system and cripple the future generation
 UNESCO’ s target by 2030: quality education through
innovation in deviation free atmosphere.
 World Bank (2018); expel even the possibilities of
deviated practices is the heart of SDGs

5. Types of deviated practices and its impact
on education and learners

7. Role of e-pedagogy in 21st century education system
 Pedagogy is defined as any conscious and purposeful act of teaching
and related strategies to enhance the learning outcome
 Pedagogy has got a vital role in defining the education
strategies according to the dynamic demands of the changing
world. (Jagannath K. Dange, 2019).
 Digital world need digital pedagogy to actualise the learning
aspiration of 21st century learners by expelling the deviated
practices.
 Otherwise out dated pedagogy may form a young generation
unfit and unskilled for digital world
Required Technological transformation of school for
successful execution of e-pedagogy
E-pedagogy along cannot bring a drastic change in
education system, so education system it self is to be
changed for the successful adoption of e-pedagogy as
explained in the following figure:

9. POTENTIAL ELEMENTS OF E-PEDAGOGY AND ITS REQUIRED TECHNOLOGICAL
ADVANCEMENT IN COMBATING DEVIATED PRACTICES
Deviated practices Technological & e-
pedagogical solutions
Teaching related
 Exam oriented teaching
(Fraud)
 Result oriented teaching and
framing question (Fraud)
 Unwillingness in taking
remedial class (Fraud)
 Shadow teaching
(Enforcement)
 Digital exam based on cloud computing,
online tutoring and AI and ML, Shared
learning through social media platforms, (Jain
Rahul, 2016).

10. Assessment related (Max Eckstein, 2013)
 leakage of question paper (Fraud)
 allowing electronic devices (Fraud)
 Forgery and falsification of result
(Fraud)
 allowing other to write exams taking
money (Fraud)
 malpractice in evaluation result
publishing based on favouritism and

 Centralised question forming and
assessment with the help of Cloud
computing eg. Net, JEE, (Mgnas
Fernando, 2017).
Appointment related
 Unqualified teachers teaching (Fraud)
 Ghost teachers (Fraud), (Harry A.
Patrinos, 2013).
 Appointment based on favouritism,
nepotism. Bribe, etc, (Jacques Hallak &
Muriel Poisson, 2007).
 Digitalised selection and appointment
procedures
 online exams, (Wassila Naamani
Mehanna, 2014)
 digital verification of certificate, cloud
computing helped examinations
 Bio metric system
 interview through Video conferencing
and recording
 Biometric system

11. Income & Payment related
 Low Salary payment and no ESI & PF
facility (Fraud), (Jacques Hallak &
Muriel Poisson, 2007).
 Delayed payment (transgression)
 Collection of fee and its misuse
(Embezzlement)
 Compulsory payment like donation,
picnic fee, sale of textbooks with large
scale of profit (Enforcement)
 Digital transaction through centralised
softwares
Harassment related: Misconduct,
(PACA, 2012).
 revenge, sexual assault,
neglecting, torturing, discriminating,
ridiculing, reprisal
 Advancement of biometric like Facial
recognition, eye tracking, voice
recognition, etc.
 Teaching on law and its practicality
(E-pedagogy)
 Digital Grievance platform

12. SUGGESTIONS
For successful adaptation of e-pedagogy for deviation free
education system, the entire education system is to be
advanced.
An assessment committee for evaluating and reporting the
present technological status quo of the school should be
formed
Policies with regard to basic infrastructure and training
should be made and executed.
Adequate budget for advancement of public schools
should be allotted
Possibilities for the occurrence of deviated practices in
education system should be vigilantly avoided by taking
strict procedures and adopting technological
advancement.

13. CONCLUSION
Since technological backwardness and deviated
practices will never contribute to the actualisation of
educational objectives, there is a need for a
conscious and courageous move towards the
rectification and updation of education system to
reach the targets. So deviation free and technically
advanced education system is the need of the time
in this globalised and digitalised age where e-
pedagogy has a vital role to play. But for the
successful adaptation of e-pedagogy the entire
system of education including personnel and
infrastructure are to be advanced.
