Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept: SWAYAM (Study Webs of Active Learning for Young Aspiring Minds) is a Government of India digital learning platform designed to provide high-quality education through MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses). Its core principles are accessibility, equity, and quality.

Step 1: Evaluating statement (K)
K is correct because SWAYAM courses are developed by national coordinators such as NPTEL, UGC, CEC, IGNOU, ensuring high-quality academic content.

Step 2: Evaluating statement (L)
L is incorrect because: - Learning content is free - Only certification exams may have a fee Hence “nominal cost” is misleading.

Step 3: Evaluating statement (M)
M is incorrect because SWAYAM: - Does not directly grant degrees - Only provides certificates and credit transfer support

Step 4: Evaluating statement (N)
N is correct because courses range from school level (Class IX) to postgraduate education.

Step 5: Evaluating statement (O)
O is correct because SWAYAM is: - Open access - Time-independent - Location-independent

Final Conclusion: $$ \{K, N, O\} $$
