ANSWER: All of the above

Explanation:

  • E-pathshala, a mobile app as well as a website, has been launched by the Ministry of Human Resources, which will serve as a platform to provide free access to the NCERT books.
  • E-pathshala, which is available through a especially developed mobile app interface on Android, IOS and windows platforms, is broadly divided into four segments - students, teachers, parents and educators. The resources are available in three languages-English, Hindi and Urdu.
  • For students, they get to access the e-books, audio/video tutorials and can keep track of the books they accessed, hours spent on a certain subject/ book and even bookmark the chapters studied.
  • Teachers can download teaching manuals and curricular resources which are listed class and subject wise.
  • Parents too can access the e-resources and the additional feature in this section is the learning outcome.
  • The final stakeholder, the educators too can log into this application and get access to additional periodicals. Right now tertiary educational periodicals are available for educators.
