The landscape of education has seen tremendous development over the years, following the innovations led by technology and digitization. In a nutshell, it can simply be put that teaching methods have now become largely student-centered. In the Indian scenario, several examples have shown how conventional teaching methods have only produced a literate population that has strived to meet up with parents’ expectations, higher grades and reverence for curriculum activities. In other words, students have passed out, however with minimal understanding of their own preferences, career-paths, skills, forte and so on. As time passed, new teaching models have come into effect. For instance, on a college and university level, event-based and personalized learning programmes were implemented to form interdisciplinary curriculums, altogether broadening the scope for the learner. The details about academic advancements, both in curriculum and teaching methods are vast and would take several discussions to fully understand the scope of such developments. However, in this paper, we shall place an effort to understand the effectiveness of inclusive pedagogy, or inclusive teaching methods that have improved several situations for the student, altogether preparing a well-integrated classroom environment.

Internet and technology have become an integral part of everyone's life. The penetration of the Internet and net-based technology into education has greatly benefited students in terms of access to information. However, excessive dependence and use of internet technologies pose a potential threat to users; making them, especially students, susceptible to cyber threats and crimes such as hacking, phishing, cyberbullying, etc. Although students extensively use the internet for learning, gaming, and other online activities, their awareness about the threats looming in the cyber world remains limited, and their preparedness to handle potential threats is relatively low. This paper highlights the importance to make students empower with cyber security education, so that they could live safely in the cyber world. This paper also emphasises the need for introducing cyber security education in every schools as a mandatory curricular subject at an appropriate age so as to make them aware about the threats hiding in the cyber world well before they start exploring cyber space themselves.

This article aims to understand how the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in governance mirrors the core elements of the panopticon and to analyse the ethical implications of integrating AI into governance practices, mainly focusing on surveillance purposes through the lens of panopticon. The integration of AI has ushered in a transformative era for governance and surveillance. Focusing on ethical considerations is crucial to addressing the challenges of governance and ensuring its use for efficient governance in the future. This qualitative study uses content analysis to understand emerging ethical issues related to using AI in governance. This study mainly utilised secondary data in the form of research articles, books, newspapers, and so on. The panopticon approach is applied to map out the sensitivity of ethical issues in the AI-driven era. This article delves into the use of AI in governance through four subsections: data-driven decision-making, public interaction with government, public service delivery, and public safety and security, and concludes with an analysis of AI gaze as a watchful eye of social control or guiding light for future governance developments.

Gender representation is low in almost every field of life, and in institutions political as well. This has caused further barriers for women in getting a necessary formulation of legislation for protection of women rights, equality provisions, and a better status in socio-economics. Tribal women appear to have been nurtured in traditional values, beliefs and culture which are marked by male dominance, tending to marginalize the women. Women’s inability to perform effectively in such an environment becomes a matter of serious concern. There is negligible mention of the mental health status of Scheduled Tribe populations in the ICMR. Quality of life on the other hand include the satisfaction of one’s needs, the experience of well-being, and working conditions.  The present study thus makes a modest attempt and explores to study literacy and its association with mental health and quality of life on tribal women in Darjeeling and Kalimpong Districts of West Bengal.

The present study examines the relationship between alcohol consumption and personality traits among college students. It also investigates gender differences in the effects of alcohol intake on personality. Using a descriptive survey methodology, data were collected from 100 college students through the Michigan Alcohol Screening Test (MAST). Pearson's Product Moment Correlation and t-tests were employed for data analysis. The findings reveal a significant negative relationship between alcohol consumption and two personality traits: Agreeableness and Conscientiousness, indicating that increased alcohol consumption is associated with lower levels of these traits. Additionally, a positive relationship was observed between alcohol consumption and the Neuroticism vs. Emotional Stability factor, suggesting that higher alcohol intake correlates with greater neurotic tendencies. No significant gender differences were found in the effects of alcohol consumption on personality traits. These findings highlight the complex relationship between alcohol use and personality, with implications for intervention strategies in young adult populations.

Integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the education system and digitally empowered teachers play a vital role in paving the way for digital citizenship. The 21st century is called the age of technology as new technologies are being invented rapidly. The progress in technological field has made people's lives enjoyable and congenial. Digital proficiency and availability of ICT resources are essential to make the teaching-learning process effective and interesting. Teachers' optimistic outlook significantly influences their willingness to adopt ICT in classrooms. In the light of ever-changing usage of digital technology, the concept of teachers’ digital competence still appears to be vague and elusive. However, the integration of ICT resources depends on teachers' attitudes as well as other factors such as teachers' digital proficiency, technical skills, diverse teaching needs and optimal use of technology. Academic research on teachers' digital competency is expanding in this current era. The primarily focus of present paper is better understanding  of the current status of digitally proficient teachers, and their attitude towards utilizing ICT resources along with the integration of ICT resources in teaching, and different factors impacting digital proficiency among teachers.  Furthermore, by reviewing existing literature, the paper underlines the importance of equipping teachers with digital competencies to promote a future-ready learning environment.

India's education system once celebrated for its academic rigor, now faces an urgent crisis: exam-centric rigidity, chronic student stress, and high unemployment rates. The economic cost of skill mismatches is estimated at $90 billion annually (NSDC, 2023). This paper examined the crisis through a neuroscientific, socio-cultural, and economic lens, comparing India's system with Finland, Bhutan, and Germany. The study Findings indicated that integrating competency-based learning, AI-driven personalization, and mental health infrastructure can enhance student academic performance and happiness. Without reform, India risks perpetuating a cycle of disengagement and stagnation.
