J.Thirumaran & A.Uthiramoorthy

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2015 | Volume/Issue:2/12 | Page No.: 2977 - 2984

 For the past two decades, the e-learning is becoming more popular and vibrant among the
learners world-wide. Developing e-learning is more costly than preparing teaching contents
and pilot training (faculty training), especially if multimedia or highly interactive methods are
used for delivering the course content. However, delivery costs for e-learning (including costs of
establishment of the e-learning hardware and software requirements) are considerably lower
than those for creating classroom facilities, instructor time, travel time of the students lost
towards attending the class room sessions. Creating e-learning materials is a time-consuming
process and requires expertise and experience in handling tools. There are various ways of
creating e-learning content such as using html pages, videos, images and audio. In this paper,
the various ways of creating e-learning is presented and discusses the design components of elearning.

maximal aerobic power between adolescent boys and adolescent girls of the central part of
central zone of India. The subjects for this study were a total of 2010 subjects viz. 1005 boys
and 1005 girls and their age were divided into three categories i.e. 12 to below 14 years, 14
to below 16 years and 16 to below 18 years of age. The selected physiological variable was
considered important for research because it would provide us a true picture of
cardiovascular endurance in general and VO2 max in particular of adolescent boys and girls
of the selected area. To compare the maximal aerobic power between adolescent boys and
adolescent girls of central part of central zone of India, the Descriptive statistics and t test
was used. The average values of maximal aerobic power of boys: 12 to below 14 years
(18.07±1.86 ml/kg/min), 14 to below 16 years (26.21± 2.68ml/kg/min) and 16 to below 18
years (37.15±3.54 ml/kg/min) respectively. The average values of maximal aerobic power of
girls: 12 to below 14 years (17.39± 2.14 ml/kg/min), 14 to below 16 years (25.17± 2.73
ml/kg/min) and 16 to below18 years (35.83± 2.78 ml/kg/min) respectively. The present study

MECHANISM IN SCHOOLS FOR THE PROTECTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS: NGOS, PRESS AND MEDIA

Shivani Shrivastava

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2015 | Volume/Issue:2/12 | Page No.: 3083 - 3093

Education has been specified as one on the fundamental human rights vide article 26 of
the ‘Universal Declaration of Human Rights’ follows:
Article 26 (i) “Everyone has the right to Education shall be free, at least in the
elementary and fundamental stage. Technical and professional education shall be
equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.”
(ii) “Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality
and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.”
“It shall promote understanding, tolerance and friendship among all nation, racial or
religious groups and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the
maintenance of peace.”
(iii) “Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to
their children.”
There is a close correlation between poverty among families, communities and entire
countries, and low levels of education among children, and identifying financial
obstacles to universal primary education is the crucial first step towards their
elimination. This t\\is mandated by universal human rights standards that assert primary
education should be free and compulsory. International human rights law asserts the
public responsibility for ensuring free and compulsory primary education. Key
provisions included in the treaties are summarized below reflecting changes in
international human rights law over the last few decades. These changes have
reaffirmed that compulsory education should remain free.

Power electronics is widely used in many major industrial applications, power supply, battery
management system, smart grid etc. Huge demand emerges in the major industrial applications
for power , electronics expertise, which requires the theory of power electronics and the real
industrial needs to be combined tightly. Most renewable energy resources tend to be
geographical dependent and clustered in certain areas due to availability of natural resources.
This paper illustrates basic history of power electronics including various trends in this industry
with its certain prime applications.
Keywords: Power electronics, Ecodesign, Smart grid, Efficiency.

CYBER CRIME AND CYBER TERRORISM ARE CONCERNS FOR EVERY SECTOR

Veena Devi Trivedi

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2015 | Volume/Issue:2/12 | Page No.: 3212 - 3217

Cyber Crime is the use of Internet attacks in criminal activities, including acts of deliberate,
large-scale disruption of computer networks, especially computers of personal use attached to
the Internet, by the means of tools such as computer viruses. Cyber terrorism is a dual meaning
term. Some authors choose a very narrow definition, relating to terrorist activities, by known
terrorist organizations, of disruption attacks against information systems for the primary
purpose of creating alarm and panic. By this narrow definition, it is difficult to identify any
instances of cyber terrorism.Cyber terrorism can also be understood as the intentional use of
computer, networks, and public internet to cause destruction and harm for personal
objectives. Objectives may be political or ideological since this can be seen as a form of
terrorism. There is much concern from government, public and media sources about potential
damages that could be caused by cyber terrorism, and this has prompted official responses from
government agencies. Several minor incidents of cyber terrorism have been documented.
Key Words: Issues, Cyber, Crime, Terrorism

TO KNOW THE IMPORTANCE OF FOOD MICROBIOLOGY IN COMMERCIAL KITCHENS: A STUDY OF CRUISE LINES AND HOTELS

Munish Ahlawat

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2015 | Volume/Issue:2/12 | Page No.: 3145 - 3161

Food microbiology is a vital component in ensuring the safety and stability of the food that we
eat. Like all technical subjects, it is full of jargon that can appear complex and difficult to nonmicrobiological
staff. Understanding the basics of food microbiology and its importance in
maintaining food safety is vital .United states of America has very strict rules and regulations
regarding the food hygiene and safety and so my basis for this research started way back when I
was working in one of the cruise liners at USA and further after working in many five star hotels
,I managed to gather food samples and thorough microbiological evaluation was done in the
microbiology lab of the cruise liners and hotels. The hotels executive chef and the microbiologist
was a big help in allowing taking the food samples and using the microbiology lab equipments in
order to get the food sample results. Interviews were conducted and data collected on their
knowledge of risk perception, food handling practices, temperature control, food borne
pathogens, and personal hygiene.
The food tests were conducted to know and gather knowledge about Salmonella and
staphylococcus aureus. The lack of current knowledge of food hygiene and safety among hotels
and restaurant staff highlights increased risk associated with food in India.
Keywords: restaurants, food safety, food borne pathogens, hygiene, cross-contamination.

ROOTS AND SHADOWS: A STUDY OF FEMINIST APPROACH

Sudesh Sharma

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2015 | Volume/Issue:2/12 | Page No.: 3162 - 3169

The term feminism was first used by the French dramatist Alexander Dumas, the younger,
in 1872 in a pamphlet ‘L’ ‘Home-femme’ to designate the then emerging movement for
women’s rights. An anti-masculinity movement of the women for the assertion of their
individual rights, feminism is also called Aphorism after Aphra Behn, a seventeenth century
feminist and political activist.

for poverty reduction programme. Because of the government schemes poverty ratio of India are
reduced. Government spent so much money for below poverty line families but government does
not achieve the expected target. Poverty exists not only in India but its presence is worldwide.
Poverty is focused as a hurdle into development. Poverty creates economics as well as social
problems that harm the society at large. In order to increase in self employment, Integrated

Baliram T. Vibhute & Rakesh L. Pawar

Issue: Oct-Nov, 2015 | Volume/Issue:2/12 | Page No.: 3218 - 3226

 Medicinal plants were the best source of therapeutic molecules to cure various diseases in the in the different living organism. The amount of heavy metals in the plants was analyzed to show the adverse affects to the animals and human beings who consume them as such or their derived products. The work is more beneficial as the actual nutrient content of the medicinal plants in terms of the essential trace elements could also be identified. The concentration levels (mg/l) of the selected trace metals (Ni, Cu, Cr, Zn, Mn, Pb) were estimated in some of the important herbal plants of the Raigad district. The atomic absorption spectrophotometer was employed for the estimation of heavy metals of five different plant species that were collected from different locations within Riagad district. The plants selected for the analysis were Emblica officinalis, Phyllanthus emblica, Ocimum tenuiflorum. Azadirachta indica and Balanites aegyptiaca. The metal contents in the samples were determined and was found that Emblica officinalis has the level of metals in the range of Cu>Cr>Mn>Zn, Phyllanthus emblica Cu>Cr>Zn>Mn, in Ocimum tenuiflorum Cu>Mn> Cr>Zn. In Azadirachta indica has Cu>Zn>Cr>Mn and Balanites aegyptiaca has Cu>Mn>Zn>Cr. Nickel and lead was found completely absent in all the five plants investigated.
Keywords: Heavy metals, Balanites aegyptiaca, Emblica officinalis, Phyllanthus emblica, Azadirachta indica.
