right to education act & homeschooling - a perspective by navin pangtinpangti
The document is a presentation about the Right to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009 (RTE) in India and how it relates to homeschooling. Some key points:
- RTE guarantees the right of children ages 6-14 to a free and compulsory education of satisfactory quality in a formal school setting.
- However, the law does not penalize parents for not sending their children to school. It focuses on the government's obligation to provide access to education, not compel attendance.
- Homeschooling is not explicitly permitted or banned under RTE. The presenter argues it exists in a legal gray area that could be clarified by redefining education more broadly or establishing parental rights.

The Pune income tax appellate tribunal ruled that parents can claim tax relief on educational loans taken to fund higher education abroad. Section 80E of the income tax act allows parents to deduct interest paid on loans taken for a child's higher education from their taxable income. The tribunal clarified that Section 80E does not specify that higher education must take place in India. As such, a parent who took out a loan to fund their child's master's degree in the US was entitled to claim the interest deduction. This ruling promotes higher education abroad by reducing its costs and more parents may opt to send children overseas for university.

LAW AND THE CALIFORNIA SCHOOLING SYSTEM
Page 8: Application of the Americans with Disabilities Act to Person in Wheelchair at
Football Games.
As noted in Table 1-1 on this page, the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accords

appellant argued that these locations are not the same as having access to the bleachers where his
view of the field won’t be obstructed by persons walking in front of him and by standing players

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
