DigiCol, a resource frugal project for the digital enablement of Colleges in Kerala, has been under way as a joint venture of the Kerala State Higher Education Council and the Kerala University of Digital Sciences and Technology, as a part of Let Us Go Digital under the Chief Minister’s 100 days Programmes.

Digital enablement is about helping institutions cope with the global higher education transformation altering the concept, design, function, role, and responsibility of institutions, teachers, and students.

Colleges and Universities are to be entrepreneurial establishments with improved service, increased transparency, and enhanced efficiency, achieved through the life cycle management of the students and teachers from entry to exit, thanks to the digital technology of enterprise resource planning (ERP).

Colleges are required to provide a digitally equipped environment for teaching and learning. Teachers’ role is to teach how to learn oneself using digital technology, and the students’ responsibility is to do self-learning under the ICT environment.DigiCol provides each college with a Digital Learning Management System (LMS) customised in an open source platform called Moodle.
