1. About The Revised Syllabus

The fourth revised version of DOEACC ‘O’ Level (IT) syllabus came into effect in January
2010 examinations. Since then, much advancement has been observed in the area of
Information Technology. The need of industry has also changed with the availability of
new and advanced technologies and tools. With the advancement in technologies, the
software development practices have also changed. This also has led to change in job
profile. Different job roles require different skills. Moreover, the digital initiatives taken
by Government have also changed the way the business is taking place these days. These
factors have led to bringing the revision in syllabus of DOEACC ‘O’ Level (IT) course.

This document presents the fifth revised version of ‘O’ Level syllabus under DOEACC
Scheme which becomes effective for teaching with immediate effect. The syllabus of ‘O’
Level course is designed to enhance the skills of students so as to enable them to solve
problems using Information Technology (IT) tools. The self learning approach is built into
the syllabus enabling the learners to update themselves on the changing technologies in
their area of work. The syllabus has been designed to meet the skills required for various
IT job roles.

9. Credit Scheme for ‘O’ Level (IT) Under DOEACC Scheme

9.1. Course Introduction
A credit system based on the AICTE norms has been introduced for indicating the efforts
required to pass a specific level of course under the DOEACC Scheme. Award of credit to
a student will facilitate measurement/comparison of study hours including Theory
Lectures, Tutorials and Practical Assignments put in a given module/paper/subject under
the Scheme with similar course in IT in India and abroad. This will also facilitate other
Universities/ Apex Accrediting bodies to consider academic and professional equivalence
of NIELIT courses running under DOEACC Scheme. This will also help
students/organizations to transfer credits from NIELIT to other academic bodies and vice-
versa for ensuring continuity in education. Following table gives the number of hours of
theory lectures, tutorials and practicals per week to be attended and the credits earned by
the student:-

A Read only Memory is a memory unit that performs the read operation only, it does
not have a write capability. This implies that binary information stored in a ROM is
made permanent during the hardware production of the unit and cannot be altered by
writing different words into it. Whereas a RAM is a general-purpose device whose
contents can be altered during the computational process, a ROM is restricted to
reading words that are permanently stored within the unit. The binary information to
be stored specified by the designer, is then embedded in the unit to form the required
interconnection pattern.
Do the following
a. Count the occurrences of the word “ROM” in the above document.
b. Replace ROM with Read Only Memory in the entire document
c. Underline the text Read Only Memory
d. Make an auto correct entry for ROM and it should be replaced by Read Only
