CONFLICTS OF SCIENCE TEACHING: AN ANALYSIS OF NCF VISION AND GROUND REALITIES

Ashish Kumar Dhawan

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5646 - 5256

 The National Curriculum Framework, 2005 envisions the development of scientific temper through science education at each stage in class-rooms in India. But due to various reasons discussed in the paper, more often than not, science education fails to develop the scientific temper in its students. To analyse the causes, a case study of the science education in the government schools of Haryana was done and some interesting points emerged for future discourse including (a) Lack of basic amenities for science teaching in government schools (b) inefficacy of pre-service and in-service teacher training programs, (c) Curriculum is too huge to be covered through organising practical teaching-learning experiences, (d) government teachers are reluctant to take pains due to job-security. This paper hopes to open a discussion on the ways and means to make science education a “systematic experimentation as a tool to discover/verify theoretical principles, and working on locally significant projects involving science and technology” that has been envisioned to be an important part of science curriculum at senior secondary level by National Curriculum Framework, 2005.

Keywords: Teaching of Science, Issues in Science-Teaching, Science Teaching for Development of Scientific Temper, Science Teaching in Government Schools in India.

ANALYSIS OF GENDER INEQUALITY IN INDIAN SOCIETY WITH REFERENCE TO PUNE CITY

Jagan Karade & Ashalatha G. Shetty

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5264 - 5277

Traditional patriarchal norms have relegated women to secondary status within the household and workplace. Gender inequality means treating men and women differently on the basis of sex. Traditionally women are considered to be weak. Therefore, she has been considered to be subordinate to men. Gender discrimination is a very serious problem in Indian society. Generation after generation we are practicing patriarchal norms in the household and even at the workplace. This gender discrimination adversely affects the health of the women, her financial status, and education and even in the political involvement. The gender discrimination is blatantly seen in various forms e.g. sexual harassment, working women are getting unequal pay for the same job, pregnancy discrimination and male get more promotional opportunities as compared to men. Even in the matter of making career even the educated woman takes a back seat and sacrifices her potential for her better half. Even in educated families too, while investing on child’s education, boy gets preference. The Indian Constitution apart from providing equality to women it also authorizes the State to initiate positive steps to neutralize the cumulative socio economic, education and political adversities faced by them. What is needed is to change the mindset of the society which is a time consuming process. Mere by enacting legislations this cannot be achieved. In order to bring about positive change about the gender discrimination there is need to have greater participation of the women in the parliament and also in the political positions as well as executive authority. Indian women have made gradual progress in recent years—but gender discrimination is still rife. There are no quick fixes. When we go to the root cause of the gender discrimination we observe that Indian society is dominated by men. It is because of the patriarchal system that we follow in India.

Methods: It is student population-based study covering 200 students from of both college and school going boys and girls of Pune city selected through a systematic random sampling strategy. Interviews were conducted using separate pre-piloted structured questionnaires for girls and boys. Girls were asked how women in their family were treated and the status of women in the society. Boys were asked whether their female family members had been the victim of violence and how boys were treated at home compared to their sisters. The young girls were asked how they were discriminated in the family with their male siblings. The variables like family education, marriage, gender and economic status were the response to a set of questions for each variable. In addition, data on socio-economic characteristics were also collected. Descriptive statistics analyses were done.

The overall perception about gender inequality in our society revealed by both boys and girls is almost same. However, girls revealed that the inequality meted out to married women is much more at the in-laws place than it was at maternal side.  90-95% of students from educated family expressed that they haven’t experienced inequality because of their parents being educated and economically well off. Unfortunately girls belonging to the weaker economy and educated background did not have the same opinion as students of educated background.

Conclusion:

The study has revealed that gender discrimination is more in the economically weaker section. Education is also having a bearing on the gender discrimination i.e. where the family is educated there is negligible gender discrimination while in the uneducated families it is more. Therefore the twin problem of gender discrimination needs to be addressed by educating the women and make them self reliant. There is also need to change the mindset of the society for which digital media be used as it influences the viewers.

Mohammed Shafeer .K.P

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5286 - 5290

\"\"Kerala is bestowed with lush greenery and elegant flora and fauna, which gave the title ‘God’s on Country’. The growth of the state and the advancement in the field of science and technology enhanced the range of human resource and intellect of the people. The cent- percent literacy and the unquenchable thirst for knowledge and experience helped the people soar to the differ realms of the universe to mark their trace wherever they went. The literacy helped them to react to the problems of the society and the world. The awareness about the problems in the society and the world produced quick reactions against the reverberations in the harmonious life. This awareness helped the Keralites to wipe out the evils of caste system and feudalism from the Kerala soil. Thought the glimpses of the caste consciousness sprouts from the remote nooks and corners of Kerala and is implicit in the Kerala life, the evil is eradicated from the soil with all its manifestations. Along with the eradication of the caste system many offspring of the catastrophe were nipped in the bud. Among them is the evil of honour killing. While most of the states were is chaos with the effective involvement of the Supreme Court to curb the evil Kerala was safe with the minimum number of honour killings. Question arises at the absence or minimum number of honour killings in Kerala. So, there is growing need to investigate the reasons behind this attitude. This paper tries to analyse the reasons behind the minimum number of honour killings in Kerala state.

Mrs. Rubee Mamgain

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5326 - 5336

\"\"In education perspective each child must be treated as a learner and he or she must be provided opportunity to learn in nearby schools irrespective of their diversity. Indian government support and promote inclusion of children with disabilities but still it is in its infancy stage. Most of the teachers and community member are not aware about it, whereas considerable studies are in support and indicate that it is beneficial for all children with disabilities, children with no disabilities, teachers and community also. Teachers are not prepared and competent to implement inclusive practices in their classroom due to insufficient training and lack of knowledge of inclusive teaching practices, skills and strategies, instead they know the benefit of inclusive education and are willing to welcome and celebrates diversity in their class. While the aim of Inclusive Education is to include all children with SEN (Special education needs) in mainstream schools and there are ample challenges that have to be overcome for their education to be meaningful. This paper stressed on, to understand intellectual disabilities, challenges and constraints in inclusion of children with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities in general classrooms and is trying to cover and outlined inclusive and teaching strategies by review of related literature, so that intellectual disabled children could bring to the general schools for the supportive and quality education to meet their educational needs and opportunities.

 This paper an interdisciplinary project on “Critical Study of Social Reservation Policy with Special Reference to Reservation in Services and Education in Maharashtra” with regards to education and status of employment of Dalits Though the emphasis is on Social Reservation, this study inquires into the demands of social reservation of Dalits. Critics have claimed that though sixty years have passed with the implementation of social reservation, expected results with regards changes in social, political and economical life of Dalits have been not accrued in India. It is the same case with Maharashtra. We are dealing here with the need of the study of reservation in India. This paper deals with reservation and the making of Indian citizenship: Ambedkar‘s critique of Gandhi in his What the Congress and Gandhi have done for the Untouchables. This part analyzes the problematic of reservation with Ambedkar‘s program of the annihilation of caste.

RIGHT TO EDUCATION ACT 2009 (MAHARASHTRA): ROLE OF JUDICIAL ACTIVISM IN ANNIHILATION OF THE CASTE SYSTEM.

Deepak. P. Gaikwad

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5360 - 5368

\"\\"\\"\"This paper focuses on the Right to Education Act (RTE) 2009, Maharashtra, with specific importance to the role of annihilation of the Indian caste system and the role of judicial activism with regards the same. It is important to note in this regards that the Indian Constitution, Art. 21, Right to Education Act 2009 Maharashtra (under Art. 8 and 9), refers to cases for judicial activism Since education is intrinsically related to a just and free society, it ought to be inexorably related to the radical praxis of the programme of the annihilation of caste. This paper also focuses on the social movement in Maharashtra and the struggle for equal and free education. Despite critiques of the RTE, it seems that making the right to education a fundamental act, is indeed a revolutionary step. Yet, because of the inbuilt caste-mentality prevailing in large parts of India, there are severe side effects, like casteism in midday-meal scheme in schools, school admissions, etc. And because of the adverse effects of globalization, where the rule of money is made final, its impact of the social justice movement has been severely affected

I.Tharvin Sumi & V. Rajakumaran

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5369 - 5375


The study developed constructivist based approach to determine the effectiveness in learning environmental concepts. Parallel group experimental design was adopted as the method of study. A sample of 60 IX standard students (30 in control group and 30 in experimental group), were selected for the present study. The experimental group was subjected to constructivist based approach of learning (Project method), while the control group was subjected to traditional method. Both groups were subjected to pre and post-tests in the subject tackled by the researcher. The analysis result of the pre-test showed no statistically-significant differences, which in turn proves the equivalence of the two groups. The analysis result of the post- test showed significant increase in the score of the experimental group when compared to the control group. Hence the finding of the study reveals the constructivist based approach of learning is more effective than traditional method.

This study attempts to study the use of technology by teachers of arts and Science College in terms of stages of concern. . Normative survey method design was adopted for the present study. A sample of 300 of teachers from arts and Science College, were selected for the present study. Many teachers, especially more experienced faculty, find it difficult in handle technology. The possible reason for this is the lack of success in the use of technology in the classroom, which may be due to attitude, perception and worries of the teacher educator. This study analyzed the concerns of teachers in arts and Science College toward the use of technology using the Stages of Concern Questionnaire. Results indicate that the teachers having low awareness concern, high information concern, low management concern, low consequence concern are using more technology

ENHANCING QUALITY OF ENGLISH TEACHING

M. P. Tripathi

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5388 - 5392


“We need quality education which depends on the quality of teaching and learning. Improvement in teaching quality is one of the most important issues in all disciplines of the studies. For this learned, skilled, dedicated, oriented, self- motivated and committed teachers are needed who would be able to transform the classroom into a wonder-room (wonderful place for learning). Teaching quality can also be upgraded through peer review of teaching, involvement of peers in learning (Collaborative Learning) and feedback given by students. The practice of appointing a Supervisor for a new teacher as in the United States should be implemented in India. Opportunities must be provided to the teachers to participate in in-service training programmes. Quality is never an accident, it is to be practiced. Teachers, policy makers, Universities and the Governments would take active steps for enhancing quality in teaching. This paper attempts at making some suggestions for enriching the quality of teaching, particularly in English and of all subjects in general”.

A STUDY OF EFFECTIVENESS OF TOOLKIT OF LIFE SKILL EDUCATION PROGRAMME ON BODILY-KINAESTHETIC INTELLIGENCE OF SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Mrs. Mintu Sinha & Bhagwan Balani

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5433 - 5442

Lazear, D. G. (1994) in his book, “pathway of learning, teaching students and parent about multiple intelligences” describes bodily-kinaesthetic intelligence, a process of knowing that occurs through physical movement and performance (learning by doing). It employs such tools as dance, drama, physical games, mime role-play, body language, physical exercise and inventing. Bruce Campbell (2008) in his book, “Handbook of Differentiated Instruction Using the Multiple Intelligences Lesson Plans & More” describes bolily-kinaesthetic intelligence as the capacity to manipulate objects and use a variety of physical skills. This intelligence also involves a sense of timing, and the perfection of skills through mind-body union. Athletes, dancers, surgeons, and craftspeople exhibit highly developed kinaesthetic intelligence. This paper focuses outcome of an experimental study  on effectiveness of toolkit of life skill education programme on Bodily-kinaesthetic intelligence of secondary school students. The experiments were conducted in more than 20 secondary schools. Purposive and Convenient sampling technique has been used for drawing the sample. Secondary schools affiliated to SSC board were considered for the study. The project was carried out in English medium and co- education type of schools.These findings of the study indicate that the gain scores of experimental and control groups differ significantly.  It can thus be inferred that intervention programme organized has helped to develop Bodily-kinaesthetic intelligence in the students of standard VIII of the experimental group. It can be inferred that the contribution of intervention of the educational programme (Toolkit) in the development of Bodily-kinaesthetic intelligence is 13.41%. Thus it can be concluded that the intervention of the educational programme (Toolkit) has helped to enhance Bodily-kinaesthetic intelligence among VIII standard students.

HABIB TANVIR’S CHARANDAS CHOR: RENEGOTIATING THE HUMANE

Naresh Patel & Seema Bhupendra

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5493 - 5501

Habib Tanvir emerged as one of the most powerful and popular Indian Urdu and Hindi playwright, director, actor and a poet who innovatively reshaped the contours of contemporary Indian stage.. He pioneered the revival of interest in folk performance traditions and made it into a significant influential category in regard to contemporary theatre practice in India. Tanvir artistically fused the traditional and modern elements in his dramaturgy which made his plays socially relevant, having a touch of his own secular, democratic and humane vision. Habib Tanvir’s seminal play Charandas Chor (1975) translated in English by Anjum Katyal (2004) is the most celebrated, most popular, most humane and most performed play all over the world.. The play based on a Rajasthani folk tale by Vijaydan Detha presents a heroic portrayal of an honest thief whose humanitarian zeal exposes the double standards of the world. Tanvir renegotiates the idea of humane by powerfully projecting the reversal of social hierarchy where truthfulness, honesty, integrity, moral values and even professional efficiency belong to a thief and the so called civilized people of higher strata of society are precisely devoid of these virtues.

Sanjay Trama & Ajay Kumar

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5502 - 5506

Urbanization and modernization, sedentary life, consumption of oily and junk food and other life style changes has contributed to overweight and obesity to large extent. The purpose of the study was to explore prevalence of obesity and nutritional deficiency in school going children of rural and urban schools of Haryana, India. The study was done between school boys of 10 -12 years from urban and rural areas of Haryana and it shows that urban students are significantly more over weight and obese where as rural students are significantly more under nourished and fall in starvation category. Digital weighing machine and stadiometer were used to examine the BMI of the subjects. High percentage of overweight and obesity was found in students of urban school. Perhaps high demand of exposure to nutritional values is required in rural and urban school going students.

Madhuri Hooda & Rani Devi

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5521 - 5527

Cognitive style is considered to be a personality dimension that influences attitudes, values and social interaction. Cognitive Style refers to two parts of the brain i.e. left hemisphere and right hemisphere of the brain. The left brain hemisphere includes sequence, Time Analysis, Abstraction, Causation, Uniform, objective and Reason. Whereas right brain hemisphere includes simultaneous, Space,Synthesis, Concrete and many ways. In this article cognitive Style has five dimensions i.e. Integrated style, Intuitive Style, Split Style, Systematic Style and Undifferentiated style. The ministry of education should cautioned teachers about the importance of cognitive styles during teaching and learning process. The mathematics teacher should take importance of cognitive styles during preparing their lesson plan and teaching aids.

NEW APPROUCH & INITIATIVES IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Subhash Singh

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5543 - 5545


The Indian Higher Education System, which includes Technical Education, is one of the largest of the world , just after the United States and China. Higher Education is the most powerful tool to build a knowledge-based society for the future. Higher Education provides people with an opportunity to reflect on the critical social, economic, cultural, moral and spiritual issues facing humanity. It contributes to national development through dissemination of specialized  knowledge and skills. Being at the apex of the educational pyramid, it plays a key role in producing quality teachers for the country’s education. The National Policy on Education-1986, revised in 1992 (NPE) states that in Higher Education in general and Technical Education in particular, steps will be taken to facilitate inter-regional mobility by providing equal access to every Indian of requisite merit regardless of his origins. The future belongs to India-the largest vibrant democracy in the world, teeming with opportunities. With hope in their eyes and a yearning to learn, the youth of this great nation awaits a new paradigm of education that fosters knowledge with analytical skills, logical reasoning and the ability to imagine beyond the  given; that aims at transforming lives by instilling 21st century skills and stimulating lifelong learning. The commitment of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) for the future and its steps, so  far, are in this direction. Education for any person is not only a tool to enhance  his understanding and knowledge of everything present and happening around him but is also an  avenue for ensuring an all-round growth and  development of his or her personality in all respects.

INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STREAK FOR BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION

Sarita Tiwari

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5564 - 5570

We have seen that Environmental and Ecological constraints have symbolized our thinking towards new goals, or goals which have been neglected under the influence of a culture of mass production and consumption. The concept of respecting and protecting the human environment has its objective the fulfillment of the legislature, immediate ambitions of individuals and nations as well as the interests of future generation. The rectification of past errors, wherever possible, has its objects the provisions of better opportunities for development and progress.After Second World War, a new phase started in which nations started addressing the environmental issues and started forming international organizations. It was also during this period that there was a growing awareness about the relationship between economic development and environmental degradation and its preservation. During this period, the main reasons for the development of international environmental law were the advancement in science and technology and the unprecedented unscientific exploitation of the natural resources.

The position of rural women in society as well in family; becomes directly proportional to the level of education. Secondly, it is seen that education plays an important role in the enhancement of status/position of women. In the light of facts, it may be concluded that the educated working women have higher position in the Indian society in comparison to non working women. The women are doing jobs due to their individual desires, personal attitudes, the curiosity for getting higher position in society, for utilizing the time, to do the economic help of their families, to take benefit of their education etc. The women of all the caste categories are in the favour of the implementation of the social legislations made for the uplift of the women. The status of rural women is enhanced due to the impact of the social provisions and legislations. Today the constitution grants immense power to the women. She has the right or equal status in social, cultural, economic and political fields. The lag was the will at her own part to claim equality with them. It was the world of her own disbelief and ignorance which always kept her as the shadow of her man. As such the first step towards up gradation is to educate her and made her conscious of her position and status.

A STUDY OF POLITICAL AWARENESS AMONG SCHEDULED CASTES' WOMEN IN LUCKNOW DISTRICT OF U.P.

Harshendra Pratap Singh

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5578 - 5583

After independence, the political scene in our country has changes. The new political culture has brought lower sections into the domain of politics. The question which now arises is that of the extent of political awareness and political participation among scheduled castes, particularly the women among these castes. Regarding the extent of political participation among scheduled castes’ women, 18.0 percent each exhibit high and medium levels, 56.0 percent show low level of political participation and remaining 8.0 percent don’t participate at all. As compared to political awareness, participation seems to be less, but the fact remains that scheduled castes’ women and the Indian women in general don’t get much opportunity for political participation, except for voting on election  day. Even the turn out during the elections in Uttar Pradesh is quite low as compared to many other states. Keeping in mind their traditional apolitical nature, it can safely be said that they have started participation in political affairs and this may increase with the increase in their level of education and mass media exposure. As regards the determinants of political participation among scheduled castes’ women, age, family size and membership of political parties, are found as the significant determinants. Participation increases with the increase in the age. It also shows an increase with the increase in family size. Political participation is definitely more among those women who, are members of political parties. Contrary to political awareness, variables/attributes of marital status, education, parents’ education and family income do not contribute much to political participation among the S.Cs. selected women. , we can conclude that scheduled castes’ women have acquired significant extent of political awareness and have started participating in political activities, though their extent of political participation is still low. We can’t say that scheduled castes’ women still constitute an a political stratum and they do not seem to lag behind high castes’ women. This is a healthy sign for our democracy.

BJP PROCLAMATION FOR ABOLITION OF TRIPLE DIVORCE PRACTICED IN ISLAMIC CULTURE AND IT’S IMPACT ON UP VIDHAN SABHA ELECTION 2017

Guru Prasad Rathaur

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5589 - 5597

The word Talaq originally meant "repudiation" or "rejection". In Muslim law, it means release from a marriage tie, immediately or eventually. In a restricted sense it means separation effected by the use of certain appropriate words by the husband and in a wide sense it means all separations for causes originating from the husband. It is also generic name for all kinds of divorce but it is particularly applied to the repudiation by or on behalf of husband. 

 

Talaq ul biddat - It is a disapproved and sinful form of Talaq. It was introduced by Ommeyyads in order to escape the strictness of law. To be of this form, it must satisfy the following conditions :

  1. Three pronouncements may be made during a single “Tuhr” either in one sentence (e.g. "I divorce thee thrice." ) or in three sentences (e.g. I divorce thee, I divorce thee, I divorce thee).
  2. A single pronouncement made during a “Tuhr” clearly indicating an intention to dissolve marriage irrevocably (e.g. "I divorce thee irrevocably").

Who    can      pronounce      Talaq   (Divorce)?
As per Islamic law, only the husband has a right to pronounce Talaq. Under Talaq-e-tafweez, a husband may delegate the authority to the wife to pronounce talk on his behalf. The husband must posses the following qualifications to be able to pronounce a valid Talaq -
Shia - He must be of sound mind and attained the age of puberty. It must be pronounced orally in the presence of two witnesses unless he is unable to speak. Further, Talaq must not be pronounced under duress or compulsion otherwise Talaq is void. It must be spoken in Arabic terms         and      strictly  in         accordance      to         sunnat.
Sunni - Only two requirements - Sound mind, attained majority. A Talaq pronounced under compulsion or intoxication is effective.

It causes child marriage, polygamy, Miser condition of women, Slave like behavior with female, Worst Post Divorce  conditions of female, Triple divorce in Islam in unjustful to women, Practice of “HALALA” is physical exploitation of female, Female are considered as a thing for entertainment and machine for reproduction, Triple divorce is abolition of “right to equality, Being a matter related to religious belief , it is hard to be abolished.   The  said proclamation of BJP leaders was just a political stunt and game  with the feelings of Muslim women.

Keywords: TALAQ, TALAQ-UL-BIDDAT, HALALA, Triple divorce, Social Practice.

HOLISTIC EDUCATION TO DEVELOP CREATIVITY

Mrs. Ritesh Jain

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5612 - 5615


The subjective and objective phenomena associated with each of these stages have been described in slightly different ways by various observers, but they all agree in seeing a marked likeness between these processes and the ordinary course of insightful learning. No one can create anything without accepting a task or imposing it upon oneself, exhibiting some drive toward the implied goal, discovering essential relations, and expressing one’s purpose in some objective form. These are also the features found in the usual types of learning and in every challenge to the critical or reflective capacity of the individual. The major contrasts center about variations in shading and emphasis, especially those concerned with the difference between assimilating notions already before one and grouping one’s way forward under the necessity of self – expression to the achievement of a fresh synthesis.

Key words:

Holistic Mean the idea that the whole is more than merely the sum of it sprats, in theory or practice:

Creativity Means ability to think or express oneself in an independent and individual manner.

A STUDY OF ORGANIZATIONAL CITIZENSHIP BEHAVIOUR OF SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS

Mr. Sandeep R. Singh & Vasundhrara Padmanabhan

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5629 - 5641

 Research has demonstrated that Citizenship like behaviours promote the effective functioning of any given organization. (Organ, 1988, 1990 & Borman and Motowidlo, 1993). Research by Morrison (1994); Pond, Nacoste, Mohr & Rodriguez (1997); and Lam, Hui and Law (1999) reveals that Organizational Citizenship Behaviours are an integral part of an employee’s role responsibilities. Successful organizations need their employees to perform more than their usual job responsibilities. This necessitates the demonstration of Extra- Role Behaviour, which is termed as Organizational Citizenship Behaviour. The present study focusses on Organizational Citizenship Behaviours demonstrated by Secondary School Teachers. The authors were curious to understand the level of Organizational Citizenship Behaviour amongst English Medium Secondary School Teachers across various boards. In all, 528 secondary school teachers, both male and female from secondary schools across Greater Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai were selected for the study. The findings reveal that there is no significant difference in the Organizational Citizenship Behaviour (OCB) of Secondary School Teachers (SST) on the basis of their gender, subject of specialization and qualifications. However, OCB differed significantly on the basis of their age, experience and type of school.

Sindhya V.

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5642 - 5648

 Inclusive education has become one of the major educational policy of the government and measures have been adopted for providing high quality education to the differently abled children in a normal classroom setting in almost all levels of education. The revised B. Ed curriculum in tune with NCTE guidelines also emphasise inclusive education and a major thrust is given to equip prospective teachers in dealing the differently abled learners in an inclusive classroom. Here arise a challenge for the teachers on the pedagogical issues that are likely to occur while practicing inclusive education and the present study is to find out those challenges. A survey has been conducted among the teacher educators of Kerala University and the results indicate that teacher educators are not confident in inclusive education practices and opined that they need first-hand experience in this aspect and also are willing to seek assistance from trained personnel in transacting the curriculum. Some teachers expressed their doubt regarding the overemphasis on a minority group at the expense of major. The study implies the need for better awareness for teachers for achieving quality education for the diverse learners and providing equality of educational opportunities as envisaged by the Indian constitution.

ROLE OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN DEVELOPING VALUES

Balbir Singh Jamwal

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5723 - 5727

 In this article, an attempt has been made to focus on role of social media in developing values.Every day, one comes across innumerable images and commercials for various products. This excessive amount of media in our day-to-day lives cannot be side lined and affects all those surrounded by it. The world is changing rapidly today and in its footsteps, our core values are changing too. The last two decades because of globalization have seen an unparalleled change, which has expressed itself in the form of diminishing community values. Social values are being eroded, moral values have become fragmented and the society is facing an unprecedented cultural evasion. Children can readily find stories about violence, sexual promiscuity, theft, and greed in a variety of media outlets including fictional programming, reality shows, rap music, and the Internet. Almost no research, however, focuses on how the media shape children\'s moral development. Researchers have written widely on how the media affect children\'s behaviors, both prosaically and antisocial. But they have paid little attention to the moral lessons children learn from the media that may be underlying these behaviors. Our society today is taking on new values that are at loggerheads with the time tested and religiously accepted principles of our society, a large part of the responsibility for which must be borne by the television commercials (henceforth TVCs) and the unethical practices of the business and corporate houses, which sponsor them. Our social media pays the less attention to values while more attention should pay in developing values among the members of the society. It is very clear that without good values among the members of the society, society cannot be developed. Social media should not fully commercial. It should mostly ethical also. The writer has a hope that this article will attract the attention of social media to developing the values.

‘You can tell the condition of a nation by looking at the status of its women’

- Jawaharlal Nehru

The Indian government has expressed a strong commitment towards education for all, however, India still has one of the lowest female literacy rates in Asia. Keeping in view the above saying, the paper examines the issue of women\'s access to education in India. Drawing on existing literature and various statistics concerning women\'s education, the paper provides an overview of the state of education with respect to women and highlights some of the issues and barriers to women\'s education. Based on an analysis of emergent issues, some recommendations and suggestions are offered in terms of grassroots level interventions, strategic initiatives and enabling policy framework, towards improving women\'s access to education. In this way, my focus in the paper would be on proper implementation of the National Policy on Education, which was updated in 1992, and the 1992 Program of Action both reaffirmed the government’s commitment to improving literacy levels, by providing special attention to girls and children from scheduled castes and scheduled tribes.

Monu Singh Gurjar

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5740 - 5746

 The increasing importance of inclusive education over the last two decades has resulted in a vibrant area of academic scholarship as well as critical studies on the subject. There is an extensive body of research based literature on the subject of inclusive education. Before all else there is a need to sift through the relevant studies on the subject of inclusive education to understand the work already done and finding already made so as to avoid duplication of research work and also to understand the issues involved clearly. The main purpose of the research is to study the awareness of the teachers of secondary school towards inclusive education. In the present paper, I would attempt a comparison on the basis of gender, type of school area and qualification of secondary school teachers as a result of analysis, interpretation and discussion of the data collected from different areas of study the investigator.

The present research was conducted to examine the level of awareness among Elementary school Teachers of District Ferozepur about Learning Disabilities. Another objective of the study was to investigate the differences in awareness between Gender and Teachers of Privates and Public sector. The sample comprised of 200 randomly selected elementary school teachers from district Ferozepur of Punjab state. The survey was conducted on self prepared questionnaire by investigator. Item wise descriptive analysis was applied to study the level of awareness and t-test was applied to check the significant differences between the groups.  The findings of the study revealed that Elementary School Teachers of District Ferozepur have very low level of awareness about Learning Disabilities. In majority (90%) of elementary Teachers were unable to write single type of Learning Disability which reveals that the sample has very poor awareness about the types of Learning Disabilities. Approximately, one fourth of the samples of Elementary school teachers of District Ferozepur has not the ability to identify the students with Learning Disabilities. Furthermore, almost half sample of teachers was not aware about that Learning Disabled students can be in normal schools and not aware about the characteristics of Learning Disabled Students. It was also revealed from data, the teachers were not aware about actual problems that are faced by Learning Disabled students. While studying the efforts to tackle students with Learning Disability made by teachers, it was noticed that twenty percent of Elementary school teachers of District Ferozepur were not adopting any type of strategy to solve the problems of Learning Disabled students. Whereas, 40% of teachers were not aware about the actual problems that were faced by Learning Disabled Students. Additionally, it was evident from results that above half of the Participants were not aware about the reason behind Learning Disability.

Sunita Sagar Bhatla

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5777 - 5785

Large scale socio­economic and technological changes in recent years along with increasing trends in restructuring and downsizing has continued in many organizations, resulting in an increase in sub­contracting and outsourcing that have affected workplaces considerably. Stress in the workplace is a growing concern in the current state of the economy, where employees increasingly face conditions of overwork, job insecurity, low levels of job satisfaction and lack of autonomy, which is directly or indirectly affecting their home environment. The present study was undertaken to study occupational stress of employees from different careers in relation to locus and gender and its relationship with family environment. A representative sample of 108 employees from different careers based at Chandigarh and surrounding areas were taken using random sampling technique. The Occupational Stress Index by A.K. Srivastava & A.P. Singh and Family Environment Scale by Bhatia & Chadha were used as tool for the study. Mean, standard deviation, coefficient of correlation and t-test were computed to see the significant difference of occupational stress. The results of the study revealed significant difference of occupational stress in relation to demographic variables. The correlation analysis revealed positive correlation between occupational stress and family environment.

PRIVATISATION AND INDIAN EDUCATION

Mrs. Vishavpreet Kaur

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5812 - 5816

 This paper aims to analyze the impact of privatization on education in the Indian society. The government of India introduced new economic policies namely globalization, privatization and liberalization to increase employment, output and income opportunities and achieve economic development at international level. Privatization has brought about rapid change in the educational scenario of India. It is seen that privatization encourages the individuals and religious organizations to establish colleges and deemed universities to meet the growing demand for higher education. Consequently, higher educational institutions are found throughout the country. It not only increases the number of higher educational institutions but also increases the number of seats for highly demand courses such as engineering and medicine. Moreover, it decreases the distance between the educational institutions. It causes competition among them to fill the seats allotted by the affiliated universities and maximize socio- economic benefits. However, it creates the gap between the demand and supply of higher education. It not only increases the cost but also decreases the quality of education. Thus, privatization has positive and negative impact on education and society.

LEARNING DISABILITY: A CHALLENGE FOR THE EMERGING SOCIETY

Mr. Gurpinder Singh

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5831 - 5835

 \"\"

Abstract: Education is often thought to be one of the most important accomplishments in an individual’s life. It is often considered to be the means by which the person will be able to secure gainful employment and achieve success in life. Consequently, one’s education is a valuable tool. However, there are varying degrees by which individuals are able to learn. Not all children can learn with the same efficiency as other children. But research shows that these children who are poor learners may have some type of disability. In fact, these children are able to learn with the proper training and accommodations. These children are referred to as having learning disabilities. The purpose of this paper is to discuss learning disabilities as a challenge.

EDUCATION IN HUMAN VALUES FOR HUMAN EXCELLENCE

Mrs. Vibha Singh Kushwaha

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5887 - 5897

At the commencement of the new millennium, we find ourselves at a crucial point in the long and tortuous history of the human race on Planet Earth. The last century was extraordinary and had witnessed unparalleled progress but also unimaginable destruction. We live in a shrinking world in which the malign heritage of conflict and competition will have to give way to a new culture of convergence and cooperation. Scientific and technological ingenuity has given us the capacity to overcome all those challenges, but what is missing is the wisdom and compassion to apply them creatively. Knowledge is expanding but wisdom languishes. The astounding communications technology, which today encircles the globe, seldom uses its tremendous potential to spread global values and foster a more caring, compassionate consciousness. It is essential that the spiritual dimension be given central importance in our new educational thinking. The need to effect fundamental changes in our educational system without further loss of time has become paramount. Since the present century will provide unprecedented means for communication and for the circulation and storage of information, it will impose on education new demands. The Indian education system has changed from gurukul education to cyberspace education. The last two decades have witnessed a paradigm shift in the process of imparting and learning education. We are more and more being drifted towards westernized education leaving aside our rich traditional values and ethics. The values and ethics, which promoted qualities that make an individual socially effective and happy, inculcate friendliness, co-operativeness compassionate, self-disciplined, tolerant fearless, honest, truthful, dependable, courteous and having love for social justice.

PRACTICES AND METHODS DURING DELIVERIES IN RURAL UP (REPRODUCTIVE BEHAVIOUR AND THE ROLE OF WOMEN)

Ranjana Gupta

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5898 - 5902

 Earlier there was a ladies hospital in Dibai with the facility to deal with complicated cases. Nurses, midwifes, lady doctor (MBBS, MD) were appointed. They used to stay in the hospital quarters. Due to lack of decent standard of living and social life, MBBS doctors refused to be appointed in such a small town. Therefore the facilities as well as condition of the hospital deteriorated and it ceased functioning. Recently, in late nineties primary health centre has been established in Dibai. It is dedicated to the needs of both males and females. A lady doctor (BUMS) is also appointed who comes on duty daily from Aligarh and leaves in the evening. So the earlier twenty four hours facility for delivery is not available now. Private nursing homes fulfill this need for the locals. ‘Ashas’ - a heath representative under mother care scheme, also work in this area.

THE IMPACT OF MODERNIZATION ON WOMEN AND OUR SOCIETY

Mrs. Parveen Rani

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5903 - 5907

 The Impact of Modernization on Women of its strongest influences was the awakening of a woman’s consciousness. With rapid economic development and the advent of the women’s movement, the changing status women received much attention around the world. The role of women began to woman demanding for equal rights. Sovereignty and independence assuming the equally heavy career responsibilities. The impact of modernization affected the role of women. Modernization has opened up economic opportunities in some areas, alternatively it has led to a decline in traditional sources of income for many women,  e.g., those engaged in the production of handmade and homemade items. Development Bank, in the agriculture division, the introduction of computerization and new technologies in general has displaced small producers and interrupted women have experienced difficulty in acquiring access to credit, improved technologies and increased services. Nevertheless, these programmes have not taken into account of women’s specific needs and multiple role responsibilities. With more job opportunities, they have also seen a significant improvement in their living standard, education, power, social and financial status and their overall worth. In weather nations, women had been given equal access to education a long time ago. So when modernization came and changed the face of the world, women benefited since they were ready for the change and were willing to accept it. They were in an already ‘ready and fit’ mode and thus as soon as technology took over and more brains were needed, women jumped in an cashed in on the mew demand for intelligent workforce.

Yogesh Kumar Bajpai

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5911 - 5917

Indian roads congress has specified the design procedures for flexible pavements based on CBR values. The Pavement designs given in the previous edition IRC:37-1984 were applicable to design traffic upto only 30 million standard axles (msa). The earlier code is empirical in nature which has limitations regarding applicability and extrapolation. This guidelines follows analytical designs and developed new set of designs up to 150 msa in IRC:37-2001.These guidelines will apply to design of flexible pavements for Expressway, National Highways, State Highways, Major District Roads, and other categories of roads. Flexible pavements are considered to include the pavements which have bituminous surfacing and granular base and sub-base courses conforming to IRC/ MOST standards. These guidelines apply to new pavements.

 Employee’s satisfaction is important for any organizational productivity and effectiveness. It has been seen that leadership styles has a great impact on employee’s morale and motivation. Leadership practices seem to have quite positive effects on teacher’s lifelong professional development in the school context (Flores 2007) because they have the potential to empower teachers towards a commitment to change and enhance their learning in school organization (Bogler, 2001; Fullan, 2002; Day et al, 2001). This paper has been written with a specific aim to explore various leadership styles and parameters of employee’s motivation and job satisfaction in selected Government Primary schools.

SPECTROSCOPIC & CHROMATOGRAPHIC METHODS

Mr. Shivaji R. Aher

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5933 - 5939

 The aim of the present study was to investigate the use of spectroscopic methods, near-infrared (NIR) and Raman spectroscopy, in elucidating phenomena taking place during wet granulation. More specifically, a processing-induced transformation, hydrate formation, which takes place during wet granulation, was studied. In addition, the use of near-infrared spectroscopy in the process monitoring of high-shear wet granulation was studied by comparing it to impeller torque measurements, which is an established process monitoring method. The measurements were performed off- or at-line. Moreover, the difficulty to grasp the large data amounts produced by different process monitoring methods was addressed by combining the data and visualizing it with projection methods. Two different approaches were investigated, principal components analysis and self-organizing maps, which are linear and non-linear methods, respectively. The development of the pharmaceuticals brought a revolution in human health. These pharmaceuticals would serve their intent only if they are free from impurities and are administered in an appropriate amount. To make drugs serve their purpose various chemical and instrumental methods were developed at regular intervals which are involved in the estimation of drugs. These pharmaceuticals may develop impurities at various stages of their development, transportation and storage which makes the pharmaceutical risky to be administered, thus they must be detected and quantitated. For this analytical instrumentation and methods play an important role.

MUGHAL EMPIRE OF INDIA AND THEIR CONTRIBUTION IN ARTS AND ARCHITECTURE

Satbhai Ravi Subhashrao

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5955 - 5959

 Mughal architecture, an amalgam of Islamic, Persian, Turkish and Indian architecture, is the distinctive style developed by the Mughals in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries in what is now India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. It is symmetrical and decorative in style. The Mughal dynasty was established after the victory of Babur at Panipat in 1526 (the Battle of Panipat). During his five-year reign, Babur took considerable interest in erecting buildings, though few have survived. The influence of Mughal Architecture lives on in Afghan, Pakistani and Indian architecture today, but few like chaharbagh or four gardens still exist.

INCLUSIVE EDUCATION FOR WOMEN EMPOWERMENT AND UNDERPRIVILEGED SECTIONS OF INDIAN SOCIETY

Alka Dutt & Rajat K Sant

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5960 - 5969

 Women education is a mandatory need and the value of every women meets nearly a Crore men. That is why Pandit-Jawaharlal Nehru indicates that "Educating a men is the indication of educating a person alone, but educating a women indicates the education of whole family". A well-educated women have little and wealthy children as well as provide sufficient knowledge to them, encourage them and make them as a leader to stand tall on all situations, which will improve our society in more reliable manner. The 'UNICEF' commission on 2007 indicates that well-educated women have only few children but all those children are stronger in both knowledge and health. This indicates the knowledgeable mother can bring several knowledgeable children and improve the surroundings with enlighten power and wealth. This is a direct result of the sort of education guidelines they made, gaining from their mom. Tragically not numerous kids in India have this chance and those kids, education to a young girl-kid is given second inclination when contrasted with a male-kid in the family. According to the evaluation of '2011' the female education levels as per the Literacy-Rate 2011 evaluation are 65% and above where the male education rate is over 81% and above. Gender-segregation, in spite of the fact that not new to Indian culture, has been the explanation behind refusal of education as well as accordingly profession chances to women in India. Status of women in India has been liable to change since the day break of old days. Women were dealt with similarly with men and they had admittance to education and work during the older period (Vedic-Period). However, during the Post Vedic' time, arrangement of unfamiliar intrusions decreased her status to 'asset' which should be ensured consistently. Steadily women was denied opportunity to move out from her home, admittance to education and along these lines work. Strict and social commitments controlled her conduct denying her of the opportunity to decides to any inconsequential issue in her life. Absence of education, mindfulness and most of the women control them to aimlessly rehearse-customs, conventions and furthermore social indecencies like 'Sati', immature marriages', constrained widow-hood, dowry-system and settlement framework. Every one of them increased wide social acknowledgment in such manner. Essential education, utilitarian or computerized, consistently illuminates an individual from the obscurity of obliviousness and blamelessness.

ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD) —A SERIOUS PROBLEM OF SOME SCHOOL CHILDREN

Pradip Debnath

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 5989 - 5994

Children with ADHD are those who have three key problems: inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It's a worldwide problem that's only getting worse, yet few people are aware of it. As a result, the investigation was required. Secondary data sources were investigated for the study, and the data were handled utilising an analytical method. According to the findings, early intervention is vital for effective ADHD control. Special education with a customised curriculum and style is extremely beneficial to children with ADHD. It is feasible to identify youngsters with ADHD based on their characteristics and symptoms. The only safe method to overcome ADHD is to raise awareness about it at an early age. Care, treatment, and education would aid in their adjustment and academic performance. Utmost importance should be given to prevention as it may not be completely cured even in advanced stage. Key Words: ADHD, children, special education, problem, care, identification, intervention.

CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Khushal Limbraj Mundhe

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 6008 - 6011

Curriculum development allows teachers to take a thoughtful and methodical approach to determine what students will be required to learn. The early phases of the process involve deep research and analysis to ensure that students get the best education possible. Curriculum development takes care of the big-picture strategy required to successfully teach a course. Because decisions like course objectives, content sequencing, and delivery methods are made upfront, instructors can focus on smaller details like planning for a specific lecture or writing effective assessments. Additionally, an iterative curriculum development process gives educators a structure to make improvements to the course after evaluating student performance and receiving end-of-semester-feedback Keywords: Definition of curriculum, steps of curriculum development, Types of curriculum

Issue: Jun-Jul, 2017 | Volume/Issue:4/22 | Page No.: 6012 - 6017

Patriarchy is a social system that gives power and control to men rather than women. Patriarchy is the prime obstacle in women's development. This system keeps women dominated and subordinate. In the modern world, women try to get ahead in their life then patriarchy creates problems for women’s development. A very famous example of this system is a very famous movie that is “Aitraaz” directed by Abbas-Mustan aired on 2004, and played by Priyanka Chopra as Sonia, Kareena Kapoor as Priya, and Akshay Kumar as Raj. This movie highlights how male dominance wins over a woman, her career and how he controls her life. And when she tries to get famous then he leaves her, humiliates her, and at the end he destroys her identity and makes her helpless so that she commits suicide.

 Reading Indigenous works will turn upon to understand and explore about natives exploitation and marginalisation as well as their inability to cope with the traditional ways. The selected works Karukku and Wild Cat Falling are concerned about the displacement of Dalits in India and resistance of Aboriginals in Australia. This is my humble attempt to explore the past events of Casteism and colonialism repercussion on Indigenous cultures as well as authors an inspiring resistance, representation and contestation through these fictions. They used literature as a means to modify society or re-establish social harmony, which will set all to work bravely for the new world instead of their repeated emphasis on the fact that Dalits and Aboriginals are demanding for changed identity. Both novels have thought provoking similarity. The intensive reading of the novels reveals the authors passion and insight. The use of language signifies that their involvement to explore their historical attempts to stand by with their own cultures. Both writers show more clearly the displacement of Dalits how violently suppressed, humiliated and ill-treated under Indian caste system; as well as how Aboriginals are alienated and marginalised under colonialism without hopeful tomorrow.

In the modern age, the aim of education should be the all-round development of personality. The present educational system has made specific provisions for intellectual education by giving importance to intellectual development. But very few provisions have been provided for the development of affective domain. Important human qualities such as sympathy, co-operation, mercy, compassion, love, truth, sincerity etc., which are necessary to be successful in life has been totally ignored. The development of such human qualities along with intellectual development should be the aim of education. A great and continuing purpose of education has been the development of moral and spiritual claims are made on the home and the school because of the central role of these two institutions in the nature of the young. Moral or ethical values include values related to code of conduct honesty, integrity, discipline, duty, non-injury attention to means, self-control, self-reliance, inquiry into the good, bad and ugly aspects of human behaviour. According to MOUNI T. RANJI different school activities are to be kept in view by the school teachers, the teacher’s educators, the educational workers and the administrators since these activities when organized by the teachers with value awareness promote education in the values. According to Dr. SANKAR DAYAL SHARMA, A teacher must succeed in conveying the larger ideals of service to the community, virtues of tolerance and respect for all faiths the importance of character and the value of our heritage and culture.The education, which has the development of values, values are moralities as the main aim is called value education. The present existing society needs the value education because the value crisis had arisen. Man became mechanical lost good relations with the fellow man. He became selfish and corrupted. He lost his moral value and learned to deceive. He deceiving Devine qualities like love, kind, sympathy, morality, tenderness, truthfulness, cooperation and developed devilish qualities like cheating, deceiving, robbing, murdering and corrupting.

Dynamic balance is an important feature of high speed mechanisms and robotics that need to minimize vibrations of the base. The main disadvantage of dynamic balancing, however, is that it is accompanied with a considerable increase in mass and inertia. Aiming at low-mass and low-inertia dynamic balancing a method is developed for balancing slider-crank mechanisms. Shaking force is balanced by the method of redistribution of mass and shaking moment by geared inertia counterweights. The mathematical basis for the realization of the method is static and dynamic substitution of distributed masses by concentrated point masses. The method is illustrated by two numerical examples; the results of which show that better results are produced than that of the earlier method.
