Swami Vivekananda emphasized on life-building, man-making, character-building assimilation of ideas” (Swami Vivekananda. 2012 Vol. 3, p.302). Man-making education helps the common mass of people to equip themselves for the struggle of life, gives them the strength of mind and develops character, self confidence, self reliance, a spirit of philanthropy with the courage of a lion and helps them to stand on their own feet. It is the true fusion of the best of the East and the West. Present study was based on a comparison of elements of man-making education of Swami Vivekananda present in the curriculum of class IX and X. The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda and document NCFSE 2005 were taken as the primary and secondary sources of data. The present study revealed that various elements of man-making education of Swami Vivekananda find a place in the present curriculum of class IX and X. This study suggests that inculcating various elements of Swami Vivekananda’s man-making education in pupils from their earliest schooling years will make them hard-working, co-operative, peaceful citizens of India and also the members of emerging world.

ERADICATION OF CRISIS OF MORAL VALUES IN YOUTHS

Issue: Mar-Apr, 2018 | Volume/Issue:5/44 | Page No.: 9811 - 9815

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Modern materialistic era is era of Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization (LPG). Inclination of youths towards western life style and culture is natural. This inclination is not only limited to youths but for everybody also. In recent years increase in percentage of crimes committed by youths has created concerns on the government and society. Root cause of the problem lies in the quality of education we are providing to our children. Parents are putting more emphasis on materialistic education rather than evaluating them holistically whether they are ready to face challenges in their lives or not, neglecting all round development of child with moral values. Our curricula and syllabi are also inappropriate for teaching moral values and ethics to children. Parents, teachers, governments and societies should recognize the importance of value education in the life of an individual. In early childhood before going to school, it is responsibility of parents to incorporate essential human values in their wards. Once the children are admitted to the school it is expected that parents, society and teachers will jointly carry out their duties to teach them values for making them model individuals. Value Based Education is as an alternative to improve the schools’ deteriorating environment. Value Based Education has a positive impact on children’s well-being. Studies from different areas of a person’s life show that a specific aspect in life affects the other. This investigation aims to study and understand the relationship between Value Based Education and wellbeing of youths, society and nation.”

Around 90 percent of the working population in India is engaged in informal sector. This sector is neglected as most the workers laws cover formal workers and workers in informal sector lack social security. These workers work with zero skill or minimum skill which affects their decent life. Informal sectors contribution to GDP often remains neglected. With the launch of ‘Make in India’ initiative provides an opportunity to informal workers and hence there is need for employable skill which will help them in improving their living standard. Workers in informal small scale units lack skill and there is an urgent need to provide skill through internship, training centres etc as government of India is promoting indigenous manufacturing through ‘Make in India’ initiative. Present study tries to find out the challenges and prospects of informal workers in small scale units in relation to skill development in Thane district.

Keywords: Skill development, informal workers, employable skill.

“Ecology and spirituality are fundamentally connected because deep ecological awareness, ultimately, is spiritual awareness.”-Fritjov Capra

Life is essentially a relationship between living organism and its environment; an environment which provides us with all our needs. It is this underlying principle that exists behind the need to conserve and preserve our natural environment, since the very existence of mankind depends on it. The present study was aimed at establishing relationship of ecological footprint of the student teachers with their emotional quotient. Descriptive correlational research method was used to ascertain this relationship between the variables and the extent to which they were related. The sample for the present study comprised of student teachers pursuing Diploma in elementary education from colleges affiliated to Maharashtra State Council of Examination and Bachelor of Education and Master of Education degree from the colleges affiliated to the University of Mumbai. The sample size for the study was 1465 student teachers. The tool employed the studying the ecological footprint was constructed with the help of inputs from “Personal Eco-Footprint Calculator” given by Tim Turner in his paper ‘How big is my Ecological footprint’ and Global Footprint Network. Changes were made to suit the requirement of the study. Spiritual quotient was studied using ‘The Spiritual Intelligence Self-Report Inventory or the SISRI-24’ tool constructed by Dr. David B. King (2008). The data obtained was subjected to statistical analysis and correlation between the two variables was established using the ‘Pearson’s Product-Moment coefficient of correlation’. A negative linear correlation was found between the ecological footprint of student teachers with their spiritual quotient with respect to gender and location of college.

Keywords: Spiritual quotient (SQ) and Ecological footprint (EF)

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Children play a very vital role in nation building. It is quite necessary and desirable to protect and promote various safe guards to protect the children. It is an incontrovertible fact that there are various social evils with children. One of them is children labour. The child labour system is in existence in developing and underdeveloped countries. India is one of the countries where in large number of children below the age of 14 years are working under various organisations. It is a fact that if there is no proper distribution of work among the members of the society, then children will be automatically forced to do work for their survival. Unemployment of adult members of the particular family results into child labour. The law in Indian soil says that any child below age of 14 cannot be employed either in a factory or office or restaurant and India’s international business has been severely affected in many cases because child labours, violating human rights, have been used in some stage or the other in manufacturing, packaging a transport of those items. There is a large number of cases of export of ready-made garments, prawn and several other items from India has been rejected on grounds of child labour being used. child labour is frequently utilized in India in various places of production and service e.g., small scale industry, restaurant service, domestic aid, shopkeeper’s assistant, stone breaking, book binding, in fact in every house-hold industry.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Inferiority complex, over dependency, antisocial behaviour, deviant sexual behaviour, and social outbursts are some of the social problems. The common cause for these problems is social environment of the adolescent. The clash between adult expectation of the adolescents and their own standards result in social adjustment. Social adjustment is also linked with the adolescents\\\\\\\' home and school relationship. Poverty, parental indifference, physical and mental disability are also other causes for social maladjustment. Adjustments in social setup, developing interpersonal relationship, positive attitude towards the values are the expected social qualities of a normal citizen in any society. The process of socialisation involves nurturing of likes and dislikes, interests, attitudes, values, goals and aspirations in the hearts of adolescents. If the social needs of the students are not properly fulfilled, they become socially maladjusted. Thus to avoid maladjustment of the adolescent, proper nurturing of social qualities by parents, teachers, peers and elders in the society is to be done. The present research paper has made an attempt to share the thoughts with the intellectual forum and extend help to the student community. It will be helpful for students and teachers at undergraduate and post graduate levels. Keywords : development, Attention, society, adjustment ,Self-development , social problems.

NAAC has identified the following seven criteria to serve as the basis of its assessment procedures: Curricular aspect , Teaching-learning and evaluation , Research consultancy and extension , Infrastructure and learning resources , Student support and progression , Governance, leadership and management , Innovations and best practices. The IQAC is a significant administrative body in any educational institution. It contributes to maintaining quality standards in teaching, learning and evaluation. It promotes co-curricular and extra-curricular activities in the college. It is a capable body to administer various academic/educational activities. There is coordination among the stakeholders of the institution, but this still needed more attention and concern to increase such coordination. The IQAC and its coordinator require more autonomy (e.g., academic, financial, and administrative) for better performance. The IQAC has a greater role and responsibility in maintaining quality standards in the whole process of teaching, learning and evaluation.

The present study has tried to explore the existential meaning of secondary school teachers IN relation to their gender and years of experience. A representative sample of 150 teachers from the secondary schools of New Delhi was randomly selected. A tool developed by the researchers was used to assess the existential meaning of the secondary school teachers. The study revealed that there was no significant difference between existential meaning of secondary school male and female teachers. However, contrasting results were found out for teachers with work experience of less than 10 years and more than 10 years and the study showed that there was a significant difference between the existential meaning of these groups. Significant difference was also not found between the existential meaning of male secondary school teachers with less than 10 years and more than 10 years as their work experience. There was a significant difference in the existential meaning of female secondary school teachers with less than 10 years and above 10 years of work experience.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Gender difference in metacognition has been a controversial issue. Prior researches have shown inconsistent results regarding the differences in metacognitive skills of boys and girls. At the same time some researchers have also observed that until the age of 14, children\\\\\\\'s metacognitive skills have a substantial domain orientation and beyond the age of 14, metacognitive skills merge into a generalized repertoire across the domains following a period halt in the development, which they proposed as the ‘halt hypothesis’. The present research addresses both these issues of metacognitive development. Six hundred boys and girls reading in higher secondary to degree classes in age group of 15 to 20 years participated in the study. The Metacognitive Awareness Inventories were administered on them to measure their skills in metacognitive knowledge, regulation and executive control. Firstly, the results supported gender difference in the development of metacognitive skill but could not subscribe to any univocal nature of difference. It pointed out that girls are better in metacognitive knowledge while boys are better in metacognitive regulation and they are same in executive control. The results also strongly supported the halt hypothesis but with differences that the halt period may be longer and beyond 15 years of age and also varies with respect to different metacognitive skills.

The data were collected from eight schools of the four districts i.e. two schools from each district of Malwa region of Punjab covering 38 elementary school teachers. Simple random sampling technique was used to select the sample for investigation. A self-constructed questionnaire having 44 items on awareness, practice and problems related to CCE was used for data collection. For analyzing the data collected from the sample, item-wise percentage analysis was done by the investigator. Findings of the study reveal that the majority of the teachers are aware about the pattern of CCE and they consider it helpful for the regular progress of the students. Elementary school teachers evaluate the scholastic aspect of the students in fixed time interval with the use of different types of test items in their school. Majority of teachers conduct the formative and summative assessments as per the scheme but very few teachers reported that they conduct summative assessments occasionally. Sometimes, teachers face implementation related problems of CCE like use of different techniques while evaluating scholastic aspects, distraction from teaching and overburden due to CCE, evaluation of socio-personal skills of students on five-point scale and maintenance of records of the students.

CRITICAL THINKING CONCEPT AND ITS DIFFERENT DIMENSION

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Have you ever thought that critical thinking can help you to be objective? It actually can. To appreciate this, bear in mind the fact that whenever you are engaged in critical thinking, you are not going to respond to something instantaneously. Instead, when you hear something, whether it is a question or a statement, you are going to ensure you heard it right. Then you will proceed to assess what it could actually mean in the context it was said. Only then will you be set to make a decision depending upon whether it is something you can believe or relate to or not. What you will eventually see is that after evaluating all the different sections of what you have listened to, and you have had opportunity to consolidate the different meanings, the conclusion you come to is normally one that is reasonable and objective.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

The objective of this paper is to show the religious solidarity in Bama’s Vanmam. Her other novels expose the religious disharmony and conflict between the Dalits and the upper castes. In this novel, Bama finds the futility of internal conflicts among themselves and lays foundation of unity and integrity. The dalits understand that they are victimised on the ground of their disunity. They are disintegrated and segregated in the name of caste and religion. They realize that they cannot get rid of the brand of their caste even after their conversion. Religious fighting and intolerance lead them to nowhere. At last they get to know that religious solidarity is the panacea for their community growth and peaceful living. The text will be analysed in the context of Tamil society and Tamil Dalit Literature.

A sound electoral system in general and free and fair elections in particular are the lifeline of modern democratic states .The Indian democratic system even though sustained from last 68 years is not properly working and the common man feels that the main problem lies in the electoral system among other problems.post independent India as a whole has gone for elections first time in 1951-52 for electing members of Lok Sabha and state legislative assemblies. It was really a mammoth (like 8th wonder of world) exercise to conduct elections in a newly born democracy loaded with universal adult franchise much against the precedence set by other liberal democracies like USA , UK etc .The exercise of simultaneous elections continued up to 1967 with exceptions like Kerala and Orissa .The cycle of five years was however disrupted when the union govt under the provisions of so called “safety valve” provision of Art 356 dissolved the legislative assemblies in 1968-69.In global electoral politics, the concept of simultaneous elections has emerged as the best possible alternative to the current framework of frequent election.

Keywords: Mammoth, safety valve , perpetual, feasibility, synchronise.

The competencies include fundamental concepts, knowledge and skills on basic ICT competencies and advanced ICT competencies. The findings of the study revealed that The result indicates that a majority of male and female teachers perceive themselves as competent in ICT competencies. The results indicate that ‘majority of the more experienced teachers’ do not perceive themselves as competent in ICT competencies, and they are neutral on most of these competencies, whereas, less experienced teachers exhibited higher confidence in most of the ICT competencies. However, it is found that teachers who have already completed any certificate programme in computer perceive their ICT competency level better than their counterparts who have not gone through any formal certificate programme in computer. Furthermore, results indicated that a majority of teachers with computer course perceive their highest competency levels as “sufficient” or “completely sufficient” in the ‘use of word processors for personal and institutional purposes.

One of the greatest and inevitable challenge that higher education teachers facing is determining most effective teaching learning methods and strategies for the adult learner as the learner are over loaded with the so much information and knowledge due to easy access and availability of information through internet. Learners have new demands of knowledge and skills. To meet their demands, it is essential for higher education teachers to understand their needs, interest, and attitude, societal and global demands. Understanding and assessing higher education learners and their involvement in learning can help to design best way of transacting curriculum. In teacher education the demand of new and effective strategies and methods of transacting curriculum is obvious and teacher educators faces great challenge to meet out their demands. To meet these demands, many higher education teachers and teacher educators are using active learning pedagogies like Cooperative learning or team based learning. Active learning in the context of higher education is often a social and informal process where ideas are casually exchanged through student involvement and intellectual and interpersonal activities (Menges and Weimer, 1996). Bonwell and Eison (1991) conceptualize active learning as a process involving students not only “doing” things, but analyzing what they are doing. Cooperative learning is one of the most commonly used forms of active pedagogy. Taking place through an individual’s interaction with his or her environment and peers, cooperative learning is largely based on the idea that students learn through social contexts (Adams and Hamm, 1994). In the present paper the author has developed and used a new approach called Cooperative Mixed Group Team Teaching (CMGTT) for transacting teacher education curriculum in teacher education programme and the paper focuses on concept of CMGTT, its elements and steps of the approach.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

\\\'Commitment\\\' is a powerful word. Teachers’ Commitment is the key factor that influences the teaching- learning process. It is the psychological identification of the individual teacher with the learner, the subject matter and the objectives of teaching. Some teachers see their commitment as part of their professional identity, it defines them and their work and they \\\'get a lot of enjoyment from this\\\' (Elliott and Crosswell, 2001). Other teachers’ feel the demands of teaching to be significant, requiring great personal investment and view it as a job that can \\\'take over your life\\\' (cited in Nias, 1981). These teachers often limit their commitment and their engagement with the school, as a means of survival. In some cases, these teachers choose to leave the profession altogether. No matter what the age is, the role of a teacher cannot be underestimated. Hence, things that affect the performance of a teacher, and in turn, the quality of education. At present it is felt that there is a decline in the quality of teaching. It is high time for empirically testing and analyzing the interface between commitment among teachers and their performance. It is indeed, the need of the hour. The present study explored the pervasive, yet often elusive, construct of commitment in educational environment setting.

Issue: Mar-Apr, 2018 | Volume/Issue:5/44 | Page No.: 10432 - 10438

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

India is an agriculture oriented nation. A large no. of people in the country depend upon agriculture for their livelihood. But in India, it is not so easy for the farmers to earn sufficient income as agriculture depends upon uncertain weather and other biological factors. Low productivity or crop failure due to such unfavourable conditions result in poor economic condition of farmers. Less income or no income at all and high loans taken for agriculture add on to their misery. They find themselves trapped in such a situation where the schemes of the government do not reach to them effectively and thus they find themselves left with no other option but suicide. Moreover low agriculture productivity affects the agribusiness activities as well which in turn has a direct bearing on the national income of the country. In such scenario, agricultural insurance becomes a need to improve the condition of the farmers, support them economically and thus saving their lives which will ultimately benefit the country. This paper has analyzed the major risks involved in Indian agriculture and the growing need of agricultural insurance.

Keywords: Agriculture, agricultural insurance, biological factors, uncertain weather.

The present paper explains the concept of ‘three realities’ according to Viśiṣṭādvaita philosophy, expounded in the 17th century treatise named Yatīndramatadīpikā. The work faithfully brings out the teachings of tattvatraya by Rāmānuja, in a summarised manner and is considered as the authentic work inViśis̜ṭādvaita tradition. On the basis of the textual study, it has been concluded that knowledge of the three fundamental realities i.e. tattvatraya is very essential as far as Viśiṣṭādvaita philosophy is concerned as liberation dawns on the embodied soul only after their precise knowledge.

Without ethics and values higher education is meaningless. In the higher education students are matured. The growth and development of the society totally depends upon on the ethics and values. Wilston Churchill has rightly said aim of higher should be wisdom, not trade, character, not intellectualitiesEthics and values of any society change the destiny of that society.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Indian Nation State has completed more than six decades of independence. After independence our planners have focused on building large infrastructural projects to accelerate the economic development to fulfill the larger objective of inclusive growth by removing poverty, unemployment and inequality. However in India development and displacement are considered as correlates process. The infrastructure development projects have the unintended consequences of impoverishment. M. M. Cernea, a sociologist, who has researched development-induced displacement and resettlement for the world bank, points out that being forcibly ousted from one\\\'s land and habitat carries with it the risk of becoming poorer than before displacement, since a significant portion of people displaced do not receive compensation for their lost assets, and effective assistance to reestablish themselves productively. He has identified eight interlinked potential risks related to development-induced displacement. The major impoverishment risks such as: landlessness, joblessness, homelessness, marginalization, morbidity, food insecurity, restricted access to common property resources (CPR) and social disarticulation. The present paper attempts to understand the socio-economic impact of the population displaced by the construction of such large projects. More particularly this paper is focused on how development-induced displacement leads poverty and inequality in the society. This present paper has been prepared mainly by using the secondary sources of data like unpublished thesis, published books and reports on the development, displacement and rehabilitation. Development-induced displacement and rehabilitation has not seen as a “development opportunity” (Mathur and Marsden 1998), and this in itself is questionable, it will need radical change. This includes the need to avoid displacement and ensure that it is minimized. The entire process must have the provisions to include the full participation of displaced people in decision-making processes of developmental project, resettlement and rehabilitation.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

The basin characteristics such as basin relief, size, shape, drainage density etc. play an important role in the generation of floods. Drainage basins are the fundamental units of the fluvial landscape. The term morphometry is used in several disciplines to mean the measurement and analysis of form characteristics. In geomorphology it is applied to numerical examination of landform, which may be more properly termed geomorphometry. This morphometry is essential because every drainage basin unit differs in shape, size, area, relief and gradient from other basins. If these features can be measured using some form of mathematical analysis, then it is possible to describe accurately the morphology of a region.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

This paper covers a research work on the contributions of Ramakrushna Samantasimhar, a great hero of Odisha who dared to protest the mighty British power in a remote place like Bari in Jajpur district during the Great Revolt of 1857. He united the landlords of Bari against the land revenue policy of the British government.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

The problem of rising unemployment and existence of mass poverty are still one of the biggest challenges especially before the underdeveloped and developing economies like India. Unemployment and poverty are two sides of the same coin. Unemployment is non-availability of jobs, despite the willingness and eligibility of a person. Unemployment is a multidimensional concept. It has various consequences such as poverty, low income and standard of living, denial of opportunities, frustration, and no dignity and self-respect in the society. The objective of economic planning in India has been to generate more and more employment opportunities, to alleviate poverty and to ensure at least minimum standard of living to the countrymen. The Government of India and also state governments have launched and implemented various programmes during the planning period for achieving the objective of employment generation and poverty eradication. Despite the implementation of these programmes, the problem of increasing and widespread unemployment and existence of vicious circle of poverty continue to persist in all most all the parts in the country. Hence, most of the employment generation and poverty alleviation programmes have been strengthened, redesigned and restructured through special programmes in order to provide more benefits for the poor, and hitherto neglected and weaker sections of the society.

It is most important predictor in teacher education regarding use of computer and adopting in their teaching. Keeping this in mind, this present study was undertaken to find out the effect of multimedia package on self-efficacy of prospective teachers in relation to their academic stream. Pre-test post-test quasi experimental research design was adopted in which 60 prospective teachers selected from college of education of Rohtak using random sampling technique on the basis of varied academic stream (science, commerce, arts) out of which 30 prospective teachers were taught through multimedia formed as experimental group (EG)and 30 prospective teachers were taught through conventional method of teaching formed as control group (CG). To measure self-efficacy of prospective teachers, investigator applied standardized tool ofMathur & Bhatnagar’s Self -Efficacy Scale (SES-MGBR) (2012). Lesson plans and formative assessment developed through multimedia packagefor doing teaching learning process in experimental group for nine weeks only. At the end of the experiment, self-efficacy pre-test, post-test and mean gain score was computed. Then, data were subjected to analyzed by using ANOVA and t-test to determine the performance by comparing the mean scores. Results revealed that prospective teachers who are taught through multimedia instructional method show significant increase in their self-efficacy than the prospective teachers who received instructions through conventional method of teaching. Further science stream prospective teachers(Sc), commerce stream prospective teachers (Co), arts stream prospective teachers (Ar) groups did not show much difference in their mean gain self-efficacy after the experiment treatment. There was no significant interaction effect of Instructional treatment and academic stream on mean gain self-efficacy scores of prospective teachers. In conclusion, this study had proven that teaching through multimedia instructional package enhance the prospective teachers’ self-efficacy.

A world marked by extreme poverty, starvation, avoidable diseases, discrimination against minority groups and denial of human rights is a world devoid of peace and human security hence, it breeds anger and generates tension leading to armed conflict and war. The malleable years of youth in schools are crucial. Violence in school settings is a matter for national concern as this reflects the health situation of the nation. In today’s contemporary school settings, managing youth violence is no longer considered the sole responsibility of teachers and school administrators. It is an issue that extends beyond the boundaries of individual schools into whole communities. Peace education is concerned with helping learners to develop an awareness of the processes and skills that are necessary for achieving understanding tolerance and good will in the world today. The study would focus on the concepts of Peace, Violence, Peace Education, the importance of Peace education in teaching and learning, some peaceful alternatives for learners, and the initiatives associated to peace education.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

In pre independent era, the Adivasis for various reasons, mainly to avoid confrontation with non-Adivasi exploiters often retreated to seclusion (Kamat, 1998) and lived in geographical and social isolation. This isolation on the one hand help them to maintain and preserve their distinct culture, control over the land, forest, and other resources. Though backward in the opinion of rest of the world, they lived a self sufficient and contented life with the nature. However, the process of modernization and industrialization encroached and grabbed the natural habitats of Adivasis, resulting in displacement, poverty, exploitation and marginalization (Nambissan, 2000; Sinha, 2000; Xaxa, 2011). At this juncture, it was impossible for the Adivasi communities to stay isolated. They were brought face to face with rest of Indian people. They were brought in competition with rest of Indian for which they were not prepared. They had to be incorporated into the larger society. After independence the constitution entrusted the task to India government. Education was considered as crucial in bringing change, development and transformation in life and communities of Adivasis. Many schemes and programmes were introduced to promote education among the Adivasis. If implemented fervently these can bring immense changes in the education life if Adivasis. Thus, the paper aims to study the status of education among Adivasis with special reference to Oraon community of Chhattisgarh.

Purpose: The broad objective of the present study is to study the academic anxiety pattern of adolescents in district Rajouri, Jammu & Kashmir, India and to explore the relationship between academic anxiety and academic achievement among the adolescents of Rajouri, India.

Design/Methodology/Approach: The study used a descriptive survey method involving a group of 312 adolescents, aged 13-15 years studying in grade 10 selected randomly from four Secondary Schools of district Rajouri, Jammu and Kashmir, India. The sampled respondents were assessed for academic anxiety using Academic Anxiety Scale for Children developed by A. K. Singh and A. Sen Gupta, 2009.

Findings: Findings revealed that 41.67 per cent adolescents were reported as having moderate academic anxiety and high academic anxiety respectively. Also results showed that gender and school type had significant influence on the academic anxiety; however family type had no effect on the anxiety. Further correlation analysis showed an inverse relationship existed between academic anxiety and academic achievement among the adolescents of Rajouri.

Practical Implications: The findings of the study highlighted the need for facilitating anxiety prevention efforts both at family and school level as it can hamper the academic growth of the adolescents.

Originality/value: Rajouri is a far flung, backward and border area in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, India. This study is a fresh attempt to explore the academic stress level and academic status of adolescents of this region.

THOREAU'S NATURE VS WORDSWORTH'S NATURE: A CONCEPTUAL DISSONANCE

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

This research paper aims at exploring the conceptual concerns of two august writers, belonging to different Race, Milieu, and Moment, namely Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) and William Wordsworth (1770-1850). The former is an active American Romanticist who established connotative relationship between Nature and Self. The Latter is an English Romantic poet belonging to group of poets called the "Lake School [or] the Lakers" (Rustom-90-91). Though they both complement each-other in terms of their subject and area, a great deal of conceptual dissonance can be traced in their treatment of Nature and the way of looking at Nature. The unique imaginative angle through which they look at their Natural surroundings also falls under the area of the research. Thoreau and Wordsworth look at nature as a "source of inspiration" (Witherell 57) yet their inspirations are dissimilar and diverge into different paths. This paper would attempt to present an account in which their ideas and treatment of subject diverge in regards to Nature through having a look at Thoreau\'s Walden and Wordsworth\'s Daffodils and Composed Upon Westminster Bridge.

Strategic teaching is a way of making decisions about a course, an individual class, or even an entire curriculum, beginning with an analysis of key variables in the teaching situation. These variables include the characteristics of the learners, the learning objectives, and the instructional preferences of the teacher. Once these variables have been analyzed, informed decisions can be made about course content, structure, methods of assessment, and other key components. Teaching strategies refer to methods used to help students learn the desired course contents and be able to develop achievable goals in the future. Teaching strategies identify the different available learning methods to enable them to develop the right strategy to deal with the target group identified. Here, in this paper authors have tried to clarify the concept of teaching strategy. This paper shows some example of teaching strategy which make learning more meaningful.

Dyslexia is not related to intelligence, but to the way the brain processes information. This is the reason oftentimes people with this disorder tend to better sharpen their senses, and develop higher levels of intelligence, strategic vision and creativity. The degree of difficulty a child with dyslexia has with reading, spelling, and/or speaking varies from person to person due to inherited differences in brain development, as well as the type of teaching the person receives. Each individual with dyslexia is unique, but the multisensory approach is flexible enough to serve a wide range of ages and learning differences. A multisensory approach can be valuable to many; to the dyslexic child it is essential. The expertise of the teacher is the key. Technology is used as a tool in cultivating knowledge and experience among students. The theory of diffusion of innovation seeks to explain how innovations such as the assistive technology are taken up in a population, how the students accept and use the computer-based assistive technology. The intent of this study is to provide classroom teachers with basic information about dyslexia and facilitate them to be a resource that will increase their capacity to ensure the success of the diverse group of learners in their classrooms.

The purpose of the present study was to find the effect of physical exercise and yogic practice on selected physiological variables. For this purpose, forty five middle aged working women of Faridabad town, New Delhi in the age group of 35 – 40 years were selected. They were divided into three equal groups (n = 15), each group consisted of fifteen subjects, in which group – I underwent physical exercises, group – II underwent yogic practices and group – III acted as control group who did not participate in any special training. The training period for this study was six days in a week for twelve weeks. Prior to and after the training period the subjects were tested for vital capacity and blood pressure (systolic and diastolic). Vital capacity was assessed by using wet-spirometer and blood pressure was assessed by using sphygmomanometer respectively. The analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to find out the significant difference if any, among the experimental groups and control group on selected criterion variables separately. Since there were three groups involved in this study the Scheffẻ S test was used as pos-hoc test. It was concluded from the result of the study that the physical exercise and yoga practice has positively altered the criterion variables, such as, vital capacity and blood pressure (both systolic and diastolic).

Keywords: yogic practice, physical exercise, vital capacity, systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

It is the basic right of each and every individual to develop his potentialities and innate capabilities to the fullest level possible. This aim can be achieved only by means of education. If a person could not receive education in school going age due to adverse environmental conditions and circumstances, he should not be left to his fate but be given opportunities to receive education in order to develop his all round personality. Education of the people is necessary not only to provide materialistic comforts to them but also for the development of all aspects in their personality. It is not only desired for the socio-economic growth and development of the society but for the development of man as well.

Fisheries is an important sector in India and plays an imperative role for livelihood security and socio-economic development of the country by supplementing family income, generating gainful employment and providing nutritional food to millions of rural poor. Developing a strategy to ensure the sustainable use of living resources and their environment was only one aspect of man’s relationship with the biosphere addressed at the UN conference on Environment and Sustainable Development. This paper tries to present a brief overview of sustainable growth of fishery. There a need to integrate sustainable development considerations with policy analysis of national governments and International organizations such as regional fisheries management organizations and FAO devote considerable resources trying to ensure the sustainability of fish resources. Common method for assessing sustainability is to monitor the abundance of fish stocks-high abundance is sustainable, low abundance is not. If the fishing pressure is so high as to threaten the long term productivity of the resources, then the production benefits to society cannot be sustained. The most key elements in a sustainable fisheries Development is the ability to development change in the state of the resource, ability to take effective action to respond to the change

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Scholastic backwardness is a common phenomenon in school going children. The causes are complex and multi-factorial. Social-personal factors, neuro-developmental factors, family and school related factors can be the causes. Scholastic Backwardness affects child’s education, achievements, self-esteem, employment and marriage prospects. Academic achievements are considered as a benchmark of child’s intelligence. In today’s competitive society, scholastic under-achievement of children is a major concern among parents and teachers. Scholastic achievement assumes significance as it is a key factor for personal and professional growth in most cases. Scholastic backwardness is a universal problem which affects academic and social progress of students. It is imperative for caregivers, teachers, parents, psychologists, and pediatricians to identify this condition early and take effective steps to help such students. Many studies have shown that academic achievement is significantly influenced by the parental involvement and cultural milieu of the family. This study aims to reveal how familial situation affects the scholastic backwardness of school children.

Key concepts: Family, scholastic backwardness, academic achievement

Peace is ever sought after by man in all his activities. Right or wrong, whatever a person thinks or does it with the purpose of securing peace and joy. Peace is a state of bless mental equipoise, tentionlessness. Peace is the awareness of beauty majesty and omnipresence of God that open up the springs of shanty in the man’s heart. Peace is the serenity and equanimity. It is the calm contentment arising from the right attitudes towards action. It is a sound and balanced mental state which learns to find rest in action and which utilize all the inherent vital energies to create a perfect harmony in action. Peace means being one with life itself. Having no fear or bitterness. Peace is more than merely sitting still or silence. Tagore rightly said “heart the mind is without fear and head is high, into that kingdom of freedom of freedom my father let my country awake”.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

This article is an attempt to explore how purity works in the village and power plays a significant role in the caste context. It describes the hierarchical relationship among different caste groups. It argues the undercurrent caste features and the positioning of the community in the caste system becomes the deciding factor of purity and power. Inequalities that arose from the caste system as society evolved have influenced the location of “power” in the current structure of Indian society. Further it argues how power influences the actions, beliefs or conduct of children. It legitimates political and religious control by socially dominant caste groups. It discusses the struggle of socially backward communities to get power by breaking the caste hierarchy. This article concludes by discussing Bourdieu's concept of cultural capital and its relation with caste groups. This study has been conducted in the village of Konkan region of Maharashtra. The qualitative interview method has been carried out to understand the epitome of purity and power. The in-depth semi structured interview and participant observation have been employed as tools for data collection. Key words: Power, Purity, Caste Hierarchy, Dominance

The study reveals that there exists no significant difference among the urban and rural guardians in respect of their perception about early childhood care education and that there is no significant difference among the male and female guardians in respect of the perception about early childhood care and education. The Government, policy-makers, curriculum-planners, educationists, teachers—all may find the findings useful and chalk out their action plan accordingly to bring a positive change in the field of early childhood care and education in the country. Key Words: Early Childhood Care and Education, Perception, Guardians, Students, Teachers.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Transition metals have an important place within medicinal biochemistry. Research has shown significant progress in utilization of transition metal complexes as drugs to treat several human diseases like carcinomas, lymphomas, infection control, anti-inflammatory, diabetes, and neurological disorders. Transition metals exhibit different oxidation states and can interact with a number of negatively charged molecules. This activity of transition metals has started the development of metal-based drugs with promising pharmacological application and may offer unique therapeutic opportunities. To provide an update on recent advances in the medicinal use of transition metals, a Medline search was undertaken to identify the recent relevant literature. Key words: Transition metals, metal complexes, anticancer drugs, metal therapeutics.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

It was in 1953, that the 'word' ethnicity found its accorded use, to describe the character or quality of an ethnic group. Ethnic Group in turn is derived from the Greek word Ethnos that refers to a category of people, who can be distinguished on the basis of their culture, religion, race, or language. Any group using one or more of these characteristics for identifying its-self need not be using these identification markers for discrimination. Individuals participating in these categories may assert these criteria for accentuating in-group solidarity. Language remains one of the most significant medium of establishing this cohesiveness, and it is this feeling of intra group solidarity experienced by a group of people speaking the same dialect or using the same language that we define as Linguistic Ethnicity. In this article, there is an attempt made to understand language as a symbol of ethnic identity, its role in creation and maintenance of ethnicity and its impact on the society. Keywords: language, ethnicity, symbols, identity, society, state (India), Regional, indigenous,

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

A mixture of both offline and online training approaches give you the best of both strategies. Blended learning is quite flexible and adaptable as compared to a single-method approach. It takes every type of learner into account, whether they prefer the traditional classroom, online sessions, or a mixture of both, meaning no student is left behind. The right blended learning model helps you break the monotony of corporate training, and achieve higher employee engagement levels through a plethora of training modes including multimedia, presentations, instructor-led training, classroom workshops, real-life projects, etc. The enriched virtual blended learning model is very similar to the flex model with online training as its major component. This model has become increasingly popular in this era of remote work. However, unlike the flex model, learners must go through a scheduled Instructor-led classroom session, either in physical or virtual classrooms. This model enriches the remote learning experience by enabling learner-instructor interaction through online platforms.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Women also plays an important role in the economy of the country, that is why it is best said by Pt. Jawahar lal Nehru that " If you want to see the condition of any nation than see the status of its women". It is very important for any nation to have its women empowered. Since independence, to bring the women in mainstream, the Government of India is enforcing & implementing many laws and programmes to empower women in all aspects, especially the rural women who were supressed in all ways i.e economically, socially and politically. The main reason behind it was their illiteracy and no participation in financial inclusion,because of this they were fully depended on the head of the family or on the person who is earning the livelihood. Government being aware of importance of women empowerment have started many programmes. From many of the programmes introduction of SHGs have proved to be an applaudable programme in order to empower women in many aspects. SHG is the informal group of 10 -20 members who collectively come together to help each other by contributing small savings on the regular basis to accumulate the fund and than lend this pooled fund to its members as the need arise. SHG's after completing the period of six months of their establishment are eligible to be linked to banks to get more fund to start their own small business or to engage themselves in the productive activities. Through SHG many of the rural women have become financially independent and are able to take their own decision and have gain the leadership ability. SHGs are doing their best in many areas and making rural and poor women self dependent, these SHGs are promoted by government as well as by many NGOs. But still there are many areas and villages where rural women have no awareness about such programme ,so there is a need to spread awareness in rural women to join such group to enhance there standard of living. The present paper focuses on the importance of SHGs in the lives of rural women. Keywords- SHG (Self Help Group), Women Empowerment, Financial Inclusion, Participation.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Buddhism which emerged in response to Vedik religion or Brahmanism eventually faded away in its country of origin while becoming a political force to reckon with in some south Asian and South-East Asian Countries. The Buddhist doctrine and its Philosophy is often understood by the scholars in India and around the world from the eyes of metaphysics and spirituality. It is quite often called as the religion for other world thus cutting its relevance from the laymen living on this planet. Buddha and his message have strong inclinations towards bringing about social, political and structural changes among the communities it interacted with in the early Buddhism. In this way, one of the important dimensions of the early Buddhism was socio-economic and political transformations brought about by the Buddha and his ideology. However, there is a least concern among the academic fraternity mainly because there are no records available about the political history of ancient India before King Asoka. It therefore become imperative to turn to the Pali literature , more particularly the Jataka stories that gives us the picture of socioeconomic and political conditions prevailing in pre-Buddhist and Early Buddhism. The researcher in this paper have made an attempt to study and understand the socioeconomic and political life of the community living in pre-Buddhist period and Buddhist period and how their social, economic and political life was transformed in the early Buddhism underlining thereby the Buddha and his political thought as reflected in Pali literature, particularly Digha Nikaya in Sutta Pitaka Keywords: Community, Early Buddhism, Jataka Stories, Sigalovada Sutta, Aggannya Sutta

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

In recent times, engineering the structure and properties of nano-sized materials for numerous applications is getting tremendous attention. The term “nano? has been derived from the Greek words “Nanos? meaning dwarf or small size. Nano means 10-9 where 1 nanometer is equivalent to one thousandth of a micrometer or one millionth of a millimeter or one billionth of a meter. On reducing the size of particle from bulk to nano, physical and chemical properties (i.e. electronic, magnetic, catalytic, melting and optical etc.) are drastically modified compared to their bulk counterpart. Size of nanoparticles is intermediate between small molecule and bulk metal. There are different types of luminescence process on the basis of physical and chemical processes such as chemiluminescence, thermoluminescence, photoluminescence, mechanoluminescence and so on. There are lot of natural examples where one can see this process with naked eyes. Their excitation and emission position is definite and it is not influenced by quantum confinement effect, unlike semiconductors in which luminescence process is dependent on size dependent band gap. On the other hand, in organic based luminescent nanomaterials, it is a function of HOMO-LUMO conjugation length. Amongst rare earth elements, La3+ and Lu3+ do not show any luminescence which is attributed to either empty or completely filled 4f-orbitals. Keywords: Ionic Liquids, Optical absorption, photoluminescence, surfactants.

India is an agricultural country and its most of the economy is based on agriculture. To obtain maximum yield from agricultural field, farmers are irrationally using chemical fertilizers and pesticides since many years. It is causing direct impact on environment. Organic farming is an eco –friendly practice which is best alternative for chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Due to high content of different bioactive compounds, human being is using algae, since historical period as food, fodder and fertilizer. The bioactive compounds present in algae includes proteins, fats, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, free amino acids, organic acids, enzymes, minerals, growth regulators, pigments, toxins and antibiotics. It is observed that several algae have stimulatory effect on seed germination and plant growth. It is also found that some algae have antimicrobial potential against different phytopathogens. Now a days, it has become possible to use algae for management of pests and diseases and for obtaining maximum yield. It is an environment friendly and a safe practice. Algae are admirable sources of antibiotics. Keywords: Plant growth, Productivity, Potential, Antifungal

URBAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN INDIA UNDERSTANDING PHASES OF EVOLUTION

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Urban local government began to take shape in India in modern context since the seventeenth century. The British played an important role in its evolution. Over a period of time the people acquired a close connection with the governing mechanism at the local level. The needs at the local level were better understood and resolved locally. However, the development of urban local bodies has passed through several phases. In the post independent period efforts were initiated to refurbish the civic bodies and empower them with greater autonomy. The states governments were legally restrained to stifle the independence. The 74th Amendment came to recognise the urban local bodies and give them constitutional status and much needed power to take decision and resist the administrative dominance of the state government.

Abstract Download Article Certificate

In this research paper an attempt has been made to find out freedom struggle of lala lajpat Rai for freedom. He was a very simple human being.His ideas motivated not only youth of India,but whole the world.The patriotism which Lala Lajpat Rai preached was comprehension enough to include the mental,physical and even religious aspects of national life.love of the nation as whole,which it is internally divided. Lala Lajpat Rai set at naught all threeness of regionalism or sub nationalism that after conflicted with nationalism. Hindi-Muslim unity was the touch stone of India nationalism.Lala Lajpat Rai lived for nation and died for nation.He was true Nationalist.He had full faith in unity in diversity. He popularly called ‘S her-e-punjab'gave loud roar “Every blow inflicted upon us will prove a nail in the coffin of British empire” He could not survive to see swaraj,yet he paved a way for posterity to have it. The researcher has made humble attempt to bring all such facts in light.The ‘struggle for freedom’ has come to be used for the political struggle of the people of India against its British rulers. In the minds of many, it gets equated with the constitutional and gestational struggle of the Indian National Congress ultimately for Independence. Outside the Congress, however, there were political leaders who advocated ‘militant’ methods. For many such leaders the armed uprising of 1857-58 became ‘the first war of independence’. They have now been recognized as ‘national’ heroes even by the Congress leadership and it is academically respectable to talk of ‘militant nationalism’. Resistance to the political stranglehold of the British and active aspiration to oust them from the Indian soil through militant as well as constitutional and imitational means are the criteria used for identifying ‘the struggle for freedom’ seen in these terms, the contribution of the people of the Punjab to the struggle for freedom, contrary to the general impression, was as great as that of any other province of British India.

Background: Breast cancer is the second most common female cancer in India. Association of reproductive factors with breast cancer is unclear in our population. Objectives: To find out the association of reproductive factors like parity, age at first live birth and lactation with breast cancer. Design, Setting and Participants: It was a case-control study comprising 200 breast cancer patients and 300 control subjects. The study was done in Gov. Guntur General Hospital, 2008 and April, 2010. Methods: Both cases and controls were interviewed in wards after taking verbal consent. A short structured questionnaire was used to obtain information regarding basic demographic, menstrual and reproductive characteristics. Results: Breast cancer patients and control subjects did not differ regarding age (p = 0.9), early menarche (OR for menarche at < 12 years vs. ≥ 12 = 1.6, 95% CI = 0.6 — 4.3), and late menopause (OR for menopause at ≥ 50 vs. < 50 = 1.0, 95% CI = 0.5 — 2.0). History of breast cancer in 1st degree relatives did not increase breast cancer risk (OR = 1.0, 95% CI = 0.5 — 2.1). Nulliparous women had significantly higher risk than parous women (OR = 4.7, 95% CI = 1.9 — 11.0). Women with younger age at first live birth (< 30 years) had less breast cancer risk as compared to women with ≥ 30 years of age at first live birth (OR = 0.2, 95% CI = 0.1 — 0.5). Breastfeeding had no effect on the risk of breast cancer in parous women. Conclusion: Nulliparity and more age at first live birth were associated with increased breast cancer risk. Breastfeeding was not protective against breast cancer.

Abstract Download Article Certificate

In India, the child population in the age group of 0-6 years as per the 2011 Census was 158,789,287 million with boys accounting for 51.88 per cent of the population. Approximately 6 per cent of persons with some disabilities are in the age group of 0-14 years in rural areas and slightly more than 5 per cent in urban areas. According to the 2011 Census, the total population of the disabled was 2.68 crores of which 1.5 crores were males and 1.18 crores were females. It means 2.21 per cent of the country’s population has been reported to have some kind of disability. The percentage of disabled males to the total males in the Country was 2.37 per cent whereas this percentage was 1.87 per cent for females. The scenario was not different in rural and urban areas. In the rural areas the proportion of the disabled males was recorded at 2.47 per cent and it was 2.12 per cent in the urban areas. Similarly, the percentage of disabled females in rural and urban areas was 1.93 per cent and 1.71 per cent respectively.

The plight of disabled children is rooted in their inability to manipulate the personal and environmental variables thereby restricting the performance of daily tasks and disrupting the established role patterns and social role expectations. The problem of disability emanating from physical, sensory or mental impairments therefore has insisted many policy issues in shaping the social roles of the disabled persons. While the issue of their equal rights to live with dignity and self- respect of a human being leads to continuous analysis of public policies and rehabilitation services for disabled persons. Professionals from various disciplines examine their problems and difficulties from different perspectives. Acknowledging the beneficial policies for the disabled in India, especially with respect to their education and employment, analyzing the prevalent policies in the proposals and the actual practice has become a crucial issue for study.

Now-a-days in daily life mechanical equipment are used for our sustainable needs. In mechanical equipment vibration absorbers play important role in the study of suspension system. During the working condition of vibration absorber, it may fail due to sudden loads, material properties. The main purpose of this research is to analyze the dynamic vibration absorber with a modification in the primary system and to define whether the vibration absorber is better compared to the previous model. By using MATLAB, the vibration absorber system is developed and defined the parameters for different conditions and got the output in frequency (Hz) and amplitudes (m) and compared the results of the previous model with the present model by building the system using the governing equations in MATLAB. Similarly dynamic vibration absorber is designed with some parameters through drafting software by using solid works. In Ansys, a vibration absorber is designed and imported from solid works by applying the load condition, thermal condition and number of elements. Finally, at different impact loads the frequencies and the respective amplitudes are obtained. Having known the frequencies and amplitude behavior, the performance of dynamic vibration absorber can be estimated.

The status of any social group is determined by its levels of health-nutrition, literacy education and standard of living. The tribal women, constitute like any other social group, about half of the total population. However, the health of tribal women is more important because tribal women work harder and family economy and management depends on them. It has been reported that illiteracy, in tribal as well as non-tribal population, is positively correlated to health. The tribal women, as women in all social groups, are more illiterate than men. The low educational status is reflected in their lower literacy rate, lower enrolment rate and their presence in the school. Like others social groups, the tribal women share problems related to reproductive health. All these factors were discussed in detail.
