Bharati Chand

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7213 - 7220

 This paper highlights on constructivism approach by integrating ICT for collaborative learning. Constructivism transforms the learner from a passive recipient of information to an active participant in the learning process. The ICT integrated tools provides learning opportunities with which learners formulate and test their ideas, draw conclusions and inferences, and pool and convey their knowledge in a collaborative learning environment.Learners construct their knowledge actively rather than just mechanically ingesting knowledge from the teacher or the textbook. The ICT integrated collaborative learning techniques, help learners to promote content knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

A STUDY OF CASHLESS TRANSACTION BEHAVIOR OF BANK CUSTOMERS IN DISTRICT MATHURA, UP

Sumit Chandra & Priya Mittal

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7262 - 7266

 There are many substitutes for cash in the modern economy ranging from debit cards, pre-paid cards, credit cards and mobile wallets. When compared to cash, these instruments differ in a number of key characteristics. Temporal separation or degree of coupling is the extent to which a purchase and the payment for the transaction from resources are separated in time. If the two are de-coupled, people may not perceive a sense of separation from money at the time of incurring the expenditure and hence may overspend. The second characteristic is related to the pain of payment flowing from salience. It is argued that people perceive the pain of payment depending on the tangibility or salience of the outflow. A third feature is the stringency of budget constraint –while cash limits one’s ability to spend to the amount of cash in hand, a debit card expands it to the balances available in the account and a credit card further relaxes it to include future earnings as well. The study is based on the survey of  the behavior of 200 bank customers at district Mathura, Uttar Pradesh (Interacting with different Banks of the district). Literate/educated and young respondents are found interested towards cashless transaction in comparison to illiterate and old aged respondents. In a comparison of debit cards with cash, studies suggest that with the use of  debit cards, the level of consumption tends to be higher. In a comparison of credit cards with cash, this effect is more pronounced. Credit cards often are associated with more spending resulting in an increase in debt as well. The demonetization undertaken by the government is a large shock to the economy. The impact  of the shock in the medium term is a function of how much of the currency will be replaced at the end of the replacement process and the extent to which currency in circulation is extinguished. While it has been argued that the cash that would be extinguished would be “black money” and hence, should be rightfully extinguished to set right the perverse incentive structure in the economy, this argument is based on impressions rather than on facts. While the facts are not available to anybody, it would be foolhardy to argue that this is the only possibility. As argued above, it is possible that these cash balances were used as a medium of exchange.

NAAC AND HIGHER EDUCATION IN, INDIA

Seema Singh

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7267 - 7273

Quality, as we know so far, was originally developed in the manufacturing industry. In the area of higher education, the adoption of quality control has been superficial and diluted by the exercise of academic . Further, the prevailing culture of universities is often based on individual autonomy, which is zealously guarded. Thus, it is usually difficult to apply the features of quality to higher education considering the fact that quality requires. However, the quality of higher education is very important for its stakeholders. Notably, providers (funding bodies and the community at large), students, staff and employers of graduates are. The most commonly grouped dimensions of quality are product, software and service. In the changing context marked by expansion of higher education and globalization of economic activities, education has become a national concern with an international dimension. To cope with this changing context, countries have been pressurized to ensure and assure quality of higher education at a nationally comparable and internationally acceptable standard. Consequently, many countries initiated “national quality assurance mechanisms” and many more are in the process of evolving a suitable strategy. Most of the quality assurance bodies were established in the nineties and after a few years of practical experience, they are rethinking many issues of quality assurance. At this juncture where countries look for experiences and practices elsewhere, the experience of India has many valuable lessons and this report is an attempt to share those developments.

IMPACT OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS ON THE STATUS OF RURAL WOMEN

Arun Kumar

 Mother is a radiant nurse, an angel of mercy, a patient teacher, a watchful guardian and compassionate attorney and a fountainhead of courage. Post independence sociologists paid attention towards the women who are traditionally backward, exploited and taken as second-rate citizens. This is obstruction and hindrance in the progress and prosperity of family, community and country. The complete social structure is affected. For the rural development and reconstruction, it is necessary to understand the changing social status and role of rural women who are 48.3% of the Total population of the country. For the study of past enables us to grasp the fundamental psychology behind the present problems and attitudes that uphold or reject them due to which it has come to be what it is. We may thus be enabling to make out the cause and circumstances embedded in the past, which led to the existence and conditions and causes are sure to prove themselves of great help to us in the making up and planning of a figure. Women constitute about fifty per cent of the world population. It is estimated that by A.D. 2000, the total number of women in the world will be more than 3 billion and they will outnumber men by nearly 175 million. At the United Nations Conference in Nairobi in 1985, it was noted that they comprise 35 per cent of the world’s labor force in the sphere of employment and occupied lower positions. Further it is observed that over 60 per cent of world’s illiterates are women, mostly in the developing countries. More than 60% respondents have accepted all the factors mentioned as variables are responsible for the uplift of the status of rural women. But; it is note-worthy that more than three-fourth of the respondents have emphasized especially on urbanization, women welfare organizations and rural development programs; as the tools of uplift for the status of rural women.

HIGHER EDUCATION IN ANCIENT INDIA

Satyendra Singh & Nirmal Singh

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7289 - 7298

 University education -on almost modern lines existed in India as early as 800 B.C. or even earlier. The learning or culture of ancient India was chiefly the product of her hermitages in the solitude of the forests. It was not of the cities. The learning of the forests was embodied in the books specially designated as Aranyakas "belonging to the forests." The ideal of education has been very grand, noble and high in ancient India. Its aimaccording to Herbert Spencer is the 'training for completeness of life' and ‘the molding o character of men and women for the battle of life’. The history of the educational institutions in ancient India shows a glorious dateline of her cultural history. It points to a long history altogether. In the early stage it was rural, not urban. British Sanskrit scholar Arthur Anthony Macdonell says "Some hundreds of years must have been needed for all that is found" in her culture. The aim of education was at the manifestation of the divinity in men, it touches the highest point of knowledge. In order to attain the goal the whole educational method is based on plain living and high thinking pursued through eternity. 
Keywords: University education, Aranyakas, Hermitages, Jatakas.

EFFECTS OF PEDAGOGICAL APPROACHES & PRACTICES FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION: A RESEARCH REVIEW

Pushpita Rajawat

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7312 - 7320

 The relative effectiveness of different pedagogical approaches and pedagogies in early childhood has raised substantial debate. While the other are associated with the acquisition of basic skills and knowledge and some of them are associated with socio-emotional development and problem-solving abilities. In general, research revealed both positive and negative effects of pedagogical approaches, without favouring specific pedagogical approaches over mainstream ones. However, it is important to note that research evidence and studies considering the same approaches in the same context are very limited. On the other hand, specific pedagogical practices are found to enhance child development, including high-quality interactions involving sustained-shared thinking methods, play-based learning, scaffolding, as well as a combination of staff- and child initiated activities. Research impacts pedagogy and pedagogical practices in the sense that research findings can inform policy makers and practitioners on best practices and what works best in enhancing staff performance, process quality and child development. Research on pedagogy and practices is usually not conducted at the national level, but focuses on particular programmes. So, research review has been used as a guide or manual to provide pedagogical guidance for Early Childhood Education (ECE) staff not only in India but also worldwide. The main focus of the study is that how of the best pedagogical practices and approaches across the country can be useful & implemented in early childhood education.

 For the purposes of education, privatization implies the withdrawal of the state intervention from this sector. Privatization has other implications too, like the initiation of the process of private ownership in a sector that is controlled by the state. In a broader sense, privatization is the induction of private management and control in the public sector enterprise or a sector controlled by the state as in the case of education. The objective of the present study was to  access the significant difference (if any) in attitude of prospective teachers(B.Ed.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL AND ACHIEVEMENT MOTIVATION OF SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS

(Fr.) Ignatius Topno & Ms. Smita Paschal

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7343 - 7351

 Broadly speaking, the process of evaluation begins with the establishment of ‘performance standard’. At the time of designing a job and formulating a job description, performance standards are usually developed for the position. These standards should be clear and not vague. Achievement motivation is affect in connection with evaluated performance in which competition with a standard of excellence was paramount. Intentional actions are usually considered the prototype of all acts of will.  Theoretically, a complete intentional action is conceived of as follows: its first phase is a motivation process, either a brief or a protracted vigorous struggle of motives; a second phase is an act of choice, decision, or intention, terminating this struggle; the third phase is the consummatory intentional action itself, following either immediately or after an interval short or long.  The objectives of the study were to enquire the effectiveness of the Performance Appraisal System in the Schools based on the basis of gender, degree and type of school and  to enquire the  Achievement Motivation of the secondary school teachers based on the basis of gender, degree and type of schools. The population consists of secondary School Teachers teaching in Patna, Bihar and the sample consisted of 257 secondary school teachers. The investigator adopted survey method by using self-constructed and validated Performance Appraisal Scale and Achievement Motivation Scale. The investigator has used Mean, Standard Deviation and t-test to analyze the data.  The major findings of the study show that there is a significant difference between the mean scores of secondary school teachers on the basis of gender ,degree and type schools in  their  Performance Appraisal System and Achievement Motivation of secondary school teachers.

ATTITUDE OF SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS TOWARDS VALUE EDUCATION IN JHARKHAND

Prof. Beni Lalit Minz

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7353 - 7357

 Values are essential for positive human behavior. Education from time immemorial has focused on values. Values form the core of educational goals and objectives. Almost every education policy document has emphasized the role of education in fostering values. Value education seems to be more important and requires more than looking only to curricula. The teachers outcomes are observed, with regard to attitude, motivation, self – esteem and subject knowledge. In India the common language used in educational discourse for the main elements of ‘character education’ has been ‘moral education’ and in more recent times ‘values education’. Character is ultimately about who we are and who we become, good or bad.

A REVIEW ON SWACHH BHARAT ABHIYAN

Amit Kumar Jain & Anuj Kumar Ruhela

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7377 - 7391

 India is a home to 1.21 billion people, about one-sixth of the world’s population. The Prime Minister of India launched the Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) on 2nd October, 2014 to accelerate the efforts to achieve universal sanitation coverage and to put focus on sanitation. It is India\\\'s biggest ever cleanliness drive and 3 million government employees and school and college students of India participated in this event. The SBM has two sub-missions, the Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin) and the Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban). Ministry of Drinking Water & Sanitation is the nodal Ministry for SBM (Gramin) and Ministry of Urban Development is the nodal Ministry for SBM (Urban). The core objectives of SBM are to bring about an improvement in the general quality of life in the rural areas. India clean by October 2, 2019 with core objectives of making the country 100% free from Open Defecation and ensuring 100% Modern and Scientific Municipal Solid Waste Management as a fitting tribute to the 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, which in rural areas shall mean improving the levels of cleanliness. Villages are considered "Open Defecation-Free" when no faeces are openly visible and every household and public/community institution uses safe technology to dispose of faeces in such a way that there is no contamination of surface soil, groundwater or surface water; excreta is inaccessible to flies or animals, with no manual handling of fresh excreta; and there are no odour and unsightly conditions.  Usually, an "ODF village" declaration is made by the village or Gram Panchayat.  As of 2016, 36.7% of rural households and 70.3% of urban households, 48.4% of households overall used improved sanitation facilities as per data of National Family Health Survey 4, which was conducted between January 2015 and December 2016, show. A majority, 51.6%, did not. Household toilet availability has improved from 41.93% 2014 to 63.98% in 2017, and the state of Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Kerala have achieved 100% Open Defecation Free (ODF) status as per data of the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation. Gram Panchayats have self-declared 193,081 villages to be ODF, but 53.9% of these have not been verified, according to the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation, which is responsible for Swachh Bharat Mission-Gramin, which accounts for 85% of Swachh Bharat Mission\\\'s budget. (Data accessed on May 22, 2017). According to the Swachh Survekshan 2017 Report, the top two cleanest cities in India are Indore and Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh while Gonda in Uttar Pradesh is the dirtiest city in India, Every segment of population, from primary school children to elderly persons need to be properly sensitized about inherent linkages of sanitation for public health. Besides roping in the educational institutions, particularly the schools in awareness campaigns, optimum use needs to be made of social media as well as electronic and print media to spread the message to grass root level. Celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan is leading a “Darwaza Bandh” (on open defecation) campaign for SBA. The film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha was released in Indian Cinema in the year of 2017 to improve the sanitation conditions, with an emphasis on the eradication of open defecation, especially in rural areas. Swachh Shakti 2018 is celebrated in Lucknow with 15 thousands women Swachh Bharat Champions resolving to usher in Clean India on International Women’s Day (8th March 2018).
Key words: Swachh Bharat Abhiyan: Advertisement campaign; Endorsing cleanliness, Defecation and Survey

ROLE OF INFORMATION & COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION

Subhash Singh

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7436 - 7442

 This paper is a mere attempt to present a glimpse of meaning of ICT, its importance & its  mandatory need for education, which is indispensable. ICT stands for INFORMATION & COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. These technologies include: computers, the Internet, Broadcasting technologies (radio and television), Telephony. One of the many challenges facing developing countries today is that of preparing their societies and governments for globalization and the information and communication revolution. Policy-makers, educationists, non-governmental organizations, academics and ordinary citizens are increasingly concerned with the need to make their societies competitive in the emergent information economy. Globalization and innovations in technology have led to an increased use of ICTs in all sectors - and education is no exception. Uses of ICTs in education are widespread and are continually growing worldwide.
 It is generally believed that ICTs can empower teachers and learners, making significant contributions to learning and achievement. Of the teachers interviewed on the effectiveness of ICT in education majority of them felt that introduction and use of ICT adequately will be extremely effective in children learning and achievement. However, current research on the impacts of ICTs on student achievement yields few conclusive statements, pros or con, about the use of ICTs in education. Studies have shown that even in the most advanced schools in industrialized countries, ICTs are generally not considered central to the teaching and learning process. However, there appears to be a mismatch  between methods used to measure effects and the type of learning promoted. Standardized testing, for example, tends to measure the results of traditional teaching practices, rather than new knowledge and skills related to the use of ICTs. It is clear that more research needs to be conducted to understand the complex links between ICTs, learning, and achievement. Again, on the question of impact of audio visuals, research shows that surprisingly little documentation is available on the use and impact of video in education, barring one or two video projects like UNICEF‟s animation series, Meena‟, which has become a key weapon in the battle against gender and social inequity in South Asia. Many teachers are reluctant to use ICTs, especially computers and the internet. Some of the reasons for this reluctance include poor software design, skepticism about the effectiveness of computers in improving learning outcomes, lack of administrative support, increased time and effort needed to learn the technology and how to use it for teaching, and the fear of losing their authority in the classroom as it becomes more learner-centered. In terms of using internet and other ICT as a resource for lesson preparation, most of the teachers interviewed, admitted to never or rarely using it, while very few used the internet to gather information sporadically or regularly. 
Keywords: Information & Communication Technology (ICT), Computer, Internet, World Wide Web (WWW), Teleconferencing, Radio, Television.

A. K. Agnihotri

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7448 - 7453

 Education is an ability possessed and exercised by humans to use their knowledge and past experiences to deal with future events more effectively and efficiently. Generally, fostering learner creativity is a vital role for any teacher, as doing so can help learners to develop predictive, analytical, critical, and problem solving skills, to develop confidence and self-esteem. Fostering creativity is even more important for a teacher of a second or foreign language as it can help to achieve the affective and cognitive engagement vital for language acquisition as well as helping learners to understand language used for natural communication and to use language for effective communication themselves. English is a leader language of all languages spoken by the people in the world. Instead of pressuring the Children for the good result in the school one should create a burden free environment for the children so they can explore their creativity. As we know every child is unique and has different skills from others. For the expression of their creative talent they have a painter called teacher in the school. The international development of a man\\\'s character is only possible by the education. The present research “A study of the English creativity of the High school students of Ropar District with reference to sex and type of school” is an attempt to look into the relationship of creativity and learning English.

NO COUNTRY FOR WOMEN: AN APPRAISAL OF MUNSHI PREMCHAND’S SEVASADAN AND NIRMALA

Aparna Ajith

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7454 - 7464

 

Needless to say, society sets norms and rules which its members have to adhere to. It has also set up mechanisms to deal with the anomalies that may potentially disrupt the system. Despite all the scientific and technological advancements, we survive in such a society where the needle of the watch decides the character and morality of a female. The paper attempts to vouchsafe the phases as well as the faces of a wretched woman’s entity through the novels Sevasadan and Nirmala by Munshi Premchand. The novels can be looked at not as an individual story but a piece of story expounding the extreme sorry state of multitudes of women. A comparative exegesis of two novels which represent the two facets of women opens an avenue to closely look at the tragic issues of dowry system, mismatched marriage, prostitution and its after-effects. The intended study affirms the fact that both the heroines of the concerned novels are driven to their ordained plight due to the compulsions of the society and not out of individual choice.

ELIXIR TO EXAMINATION STRESS AMONG STUDENT - STUDY SKILLS TRAINING AND SYSTEMATIC DESENSITIZATION

Jyoti Baijal

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7475 - 7479

 Examination stress is a ubiquitous phenomenon that has, in the present times, adversely affected the learning outcomes and performance of the students at all levels- primary, secondary or higher education. It’s increasing intensity specifically among students appearing for high stakes board examination evokes a response from the teaching fraternity at the earliest. The reason being that a prolonged experience of stress with respect to evaluative situations is bound to prove detrimental to the mental, physical and emotional well-being of the students. For the nation to develop and progress towards a knowledge society, it is imperative that the students are taught to cope with stressful stimuli and improve performance. Study-Skills Training is an intervention intended to improve their study and test- taking habits and skills. It is based on a cognitive-deficit model which is directed towards improving a variety of cognitive activities that affect the organization, processing and retrieval of information and thereby help in reducing the experience of examination stress. Systematic desensitization as a process can be used to unlearn anxiety reactions by replacing the anxiety response with a calm, relaxed state. Thus, a combination of study-skills training and systematic desensitization has been shown to be effective and superior in alleviating test anxiety.

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7489 - 7500

 Training and Development is one of the crucial differentiator for business especially manufacturing industries.  The training and development system in manufacturing industries in Ahmednagar as needs a systematic overhaul. The present training and development programs lack a systematic approach especially in regards to design and planning approach. If the testimony of the employees is to be believed then manufacturing industries lack a clear policy of training and development and seldom are employees deputed to external organizations. The attitudes towards training are influenced due to individual and institutional attributes.

Haifa Mohammed Khaled Al-Aghbari

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7501 - 7523

 This research aims to discuss the impact of Catholicism and culture in Greene\\\'s novel \\\'Brighton Rock\\\'. There are four objectives for this research that are to what degree Catholicism has an impact in the novel, to what degree culture has its impact in the novel, which is stronger the religion impact or the culture one, and finally the reason of making Greene uses these two impacts. The research is divided into four parts, the first one gives a brief summary of the novel. The second discusses the impact of religion based on the eight aspects of Catholicism. The third discusses the impact of culture based on the seven aspects of culture, and finally the conclusion. Through the novel, one can figures that Greene uses the impact of culture to support his religious theme which means the impact of religion in the novel is stronger than the culture one. Greene has a crucial message to send throughout Brighton Rock that God\\\'s mercy is upon everything, so no one has the right to judge others\\\' faith.
Keywords: - Catholicism, culture, Brighton Rock

RHETORIC OF DRESS: INTERGENERATIONAL DISCREPANCIES IN QAISRA SHAHRAZ’S SHORT STORY A PAIR OF JEANS

Priyanka. M. C.

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7524 - 7530

 
This paper addresses the ongoing tug - of - war between the first and second generation immigrants with respect to dress, and highlights the role played by costume in everyday lives. The predicament of the younger generation squashed between two extremely different cultures - one vouching for a conservative lifestyle and the other edging towards extremity mirrors the ever - changing cultural landscapes all over the world. No matter how much time has flown by, there are certain mindsets that are deeply rooted. Migrants are often compelled to make rapid changes in their overall personalities in order to be fully accepted by the host community. Here dress becomes the most resonant sign language, the spectrum through which cultures assess its members. This short story dramatizes precisely the desperate position of women who are forced to put on a mask to please the rest of the lot so as to secure their space in the social order. 
Keywords: Dress, Culture, Tradition, Intergenerational Differences.

UNDER-GRADUATE STUDENTS AND THE ROLE OF E- LIBRARIES TO UPLIFT THE QUALITY OF HIGHER EDUCATION

Dharambeer Singh

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7564 - 7570

 Digital libraries, designed to serve people and their information needs in the same way as traditional libraries, present distinct advantages over brick and mortar facilities: elimination of physical boundaries, round-the-clock access to information, multiple access points, networking abilities, and extended search functions. As a result, they should be especially well-suited for the disables. However, minorities, those affected by lower income and education status, persons living in rural areas, the physically challanged, and developing countries as a whole consistently suffer from a lack of accessibility to digital libraries. This paper evaluates the effectiveness and relevance of digital libraries currently in place and discusses what could and should be done to improve accessibility to digital libraries for under-graduate students.

THE ROLE OF LIBRARY IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Bhagvanhai H. Chaudhari

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7616 - 7621

 

The role of library and librarian in recent era has changed as a result of techno-driven world.  Library is considered ‘the heart’ of a university or an institute offering higher education.  After independence, the University Education Commission (1948-49) as well as Education Commission (1964) emphasized the need of academic libraries in India and suggested certain measures for betterment and effective management incorporating its organization, the availability of staff, open access system as well as financial support. University Grant Commission played a vital role for betterment of libraries in higher education by establishing Information and Library Network Centre (INFLIBNET). The SOUL (Software for University Libraries) developed by INFLIBNET centre, made available to its member free of charge, proved valuable in modernizing the entire set-up of academic libraries. The reservoir of Indian theses called Shodhganga, a database of thousands of theses from various universities across India has also become a chief source for researchers and academicians to seek the knowledge generated in various branches. The challenges like effective utilization of digital technologies, supporting access to Open Access Resources, etc. have not been overcome yet in every respect. The laws of library science designed by Dr. Ranganathan should be pursued firmly in a pragmatic manner. A quality education and research is not possible without a modernized library.

CIVIL WAR IN TAJIKISTAN : IT’S IMPACT ON TAJIK-RUSSIA RELATIONS

Jajneswar Sethi

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7622 - 7638

 The relations between Tajikistan and Russia have passed through various stages of development starting from the Tsarist Colonial times to the present. Though the disintegration of the Soviet Union brought about drastic changes in the post-Second World War balance of power affecting the interests of both the countries, there is still a continuity in Tajik-Russia relations. The relation between the two sides has remained strong and cordial even after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Tajikistan witnessed a civil war in 1992 that resulted in large-scale out-migration of Russians who constituted the skilled and the elite groups key to the industrial development of Tajikistan. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the Tajik Government adopted policies and confidence-building measures which cemented their relationship again. Now the inter-state relations between the two countries are on firm footing.

DOUGLAS MCGREGOR THEORY X AND Y

Hrushikesh Zendage

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7639 - 7643

 Theory X and Theory Y was an idea devised by Douglas McGregor in his 1960 book “The Human Side of Enterprise”. Theory X is management style where the emphasis is on “productivity”,on the concept of a fair day\'s work, on the evils of feather-bedding and targeted output.Theory Y is almost in complete contrast to that of Theory X. Theory Y make assumptions that people in the work force are internally motivated, self-direction and self-controlled.

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7644 - 7649

 The major aim of the Teacher Education is to prepare reflective teachers who possess the professional knowledge, skills, technological know-how and dispositions necessary for teaching effectively to students in a diverse and global society. The role of teacher is changing so fast that no amount of pre-service and in-service teacher education can probably cope up with expectations of the society. Information and communication technologies are major factor in shaping the new global economy and producing rapid changes in the society. ICT tools have produced significant transformations in industry, agriculture, medicine, business and engineering. They also have the potential to transform the nature of education. Teacher education institutions may assume a leadership role in the transformation of education.

CLEARING MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT COOPERATIVE LEARNINGTHROUGH PERSONAL EXPERIENCES

Sunanda Roy

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7650 - 7654

 Cooperative learning is a successful teaching strategy in which small teams, each with students of different levels of ability, use a variety of learning activities to improve their understanding of a subject. Each member of a team is responsible not only for learning what is taught but also for helping teammates learn, thus creating an atmosphere of achievement. Students work through the assignment until all group members successfully understand and complete it. The author has been using cooperative learning strategy for the last eight odd years. She has observed that although teachers in general have a positive opinion about cooperative learning they have their reservations regarding the hurdles which one may face while using cooperative learning strategy. Some of these are hurdles are due to misconception. The author through this paper tries to clear eight such misconceptions using her experiences with cooperative learning teaching strategy.
Keywords: Cooperative learning, misconceptions, teacher education.

TEACHING VALUES: A STUDY OF UNDERSTANDING OF VALUES OF STUDENT TEACHERS

Sabiha More

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7655 - 7660

 The most important element in the learning environment is invisible. It is made up of the values, attitudes, and actions that our classes and we take part in every day. As the teacher, you can exemplify the values that lead to intellectual curiosity and learning, and you can foster those values in the children in your class. The ways that you interact with children can establish the classroom as a place that nurtures investigation and experiment, hard work, and appreciation for the unique abilities of each learner. The ways that you set up for children to interact also contribute to the daily creation of the learning environment. Values are intimately connected to motives. These connections are complex and ultimately personal, and therefore not completely understandable. They are connected to our sense of wants and needs, and I believe that they need not be justified to be valid. Values are the context, the cognitive and emotional matrix that is different for each human being, but which provides enough generality to have universal applications. I believe that each human being, touching another through common values, can change, and even improve the world. However, when values and value systems collide, the worst potentials of man are often realized. Let us try to find out that if values are so important and the TEACHERS are shaping the destiny of nation in the classroom then what kind of value system our student teachers have in their mind.
Key Words: Student- teachers, Values, Character, Social Obligation, Universal.

STUDY OF ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS AMONG SENIOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Md. Mahmood Alam

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7661 - 7670

 The present study was conducted to ascertain the environmental awareness across gender, locale, type of schools and academic stream among senior secondary school students. The sample of the study comprised of 300 11th class students studying in different government and non- government senior secondary schools of Sambhal district (U.P.) of Moradabad region. Environment Awareness Ability Measure (EAAM) by Praveen Kumar Jha (1998) was used to collect the data for the purpose. The data were analyzed using descriptive (Mean, Standard Deviations) and inferential (‘t’- test) statistics. The findings of the present study revealed that there is significant difference in environmental awareness of senior secondary school students across gender (boys and girls), type of schools (government and non-government) and academic stream (science and arts). However no significant difference is found in case of rural and urban sample. The reason for this result may be the rampant illiteracy in the district. Stakeholders should, therefore, ensure that the curriculum relating to environmental education is transacted as a core curriculum. Other activities related to environmental education viz., curricular, co- curricular and literary activities should also be organized to infuse environmental awareness among students. 
Key Words: Environmental Awareness, Diversity, Locale, Gender

ATTITUDE OF PUPIL TEACHERS TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY

Shivani Upreti & Seema Dhawan

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7682 - 7690

 Nature has made available to us a lot of resources to survive but it depends on us how to use those resources. The concept of sustainable development has evolved the term Sustainability. Sustainability builds and preserves those conditions by which humans and nature can exist in creative coordination and which will permit accomplishing the social, economic and other requirements of present and future generations. Sustainability word has been derived from the Latin word meaning ‘to hold’. We can say that it is a type of an ability or capacity of something which can maintain and sustain itself. If we say that an activity is sustainable, then that activity should be able to continue forever. It is being widely seen today that the attitude of pupil teachers is gradually changing in a developmental sense, due to adaptation of modern ways of living and altered lifestyle pattern. Here an attempt has been made to study the attitude towards sustainability of pupil teachers .The study included pupil teachers of Pauri Garhwal and Dehradun districts.

THE ROLE OF TEACHERS AND PARENTS IN ENHANCING LEARNING AMONG THE SLOW LEARNERS

Taiyaba Nazli

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7768 - 7773

 Slow learners are children who take a little more time than others do to grasp a concept. A child who takes more time and focus to think than others his age is said to be a slow learner. But that does not mean that he/she cannot learn as well as normal children do. Such children will pass through all the developmental stages just like their peers, but at a significantly slower rate. Parents start panicking about their slow a learning child and comment negatively, compare them with other children. This practice is very harmful for children since they are super-sensitive and they depend on feedbacks from parents and teachers.  This negativity effects the child’s self esteem and the learning process as he begins to believe in his inability to learn. Hence teachers and parents should be very careful and need to refrain from making negative comments. This paper discusses the characteristics of the slow learners, the factors influencing and the strategies to enhance their learning. It emphasises the crucial role of teachers and parents in taking the children to the level of a normal child by cooperating and coordinating with each other for the upliftment of their academic performance.
Keywords:-- Slow Learners, Characteristics, Factors Influencing, Role of Teachers and Parents.

 The impact of the process of globalization is felt in all the fields. Literature is not exception to this. In the post 1990s’ period, the impact of globalization is seen in the literature of the developing countries. Indian literature also manifests the impact of globalization. The impact is, no doubt, reflected in all Indian regional language literatures. However, the present paper explores the impact of globalization on Chetan Bhagat’s novels. Bhagat observed the changes in cultural, traditional life-styles of the people because of globalization and he mirrored in his novels. The novels of Chetan Bhagat reflect this new philosophy of modernized Indian people.He analyses the effects of globalization on Indian culture. He has thought provoking ideas and uses simple English. Bhagat emphasizes the need of inter-caste and inter-religious marriages for bringing about unity in diversity in the country. He shows exploitations of students by private coaching classes for IIT admission. Bhagat highlights corruption in education system, politics, business etc. He emphasizes the need and importance of English language in India. Thus, Bhagat exposes and explains the problems of India after globalization. These problems are the problems of multi-cultural, multi-linguistic, multi-ethnic and modern society.

Mr. Prabhat Kumar & Sambit Kumar Padhi

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7782 - 7790

 Education is the most vital input for the growth and prosperity of a nation. It has the power to transform human beings into human resources. Every human makes efforts to adjust himself to his surroundings because a wholesome adjustment is essential for leading a happy life and gaining satisfaction. The process of adjustment becomes still more complicated when his interaction with one situation comes into conflict with the requirements of the other situation. One situation may give rise to pleasure while the other may give rise to pain. The resulting tension may cause disturbance in his psyche, produce uncomfortable physical symptoms or may even lead to abnormal behaviour. As adjustment is very important factor for developing the quality of research work and many researches were conducted in this particular variable but in there is a need to know the present condition of this particular variable. Review has been done on adjustment and its correlates. In order to make the comprehensive review, this paper included previous studied conducted from 2010 to 2018. Studied conducted mainly on adjustment and its correlates of students from high school to master level and teachers were taken into consideration.

Ujjala Singh & Payel Banerjee

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7791 - 7800

 Learning science is an important activity for the development and improvement of new civilization and because of this reason more focus is given to the science curriculum. Before entering in the school boundary, students already experience so many things and for this reason they are not considered as blank slates. But it is not necessary that their experiences are correct and accurate to the scientifically accepted concepts it may be inaccurate and non scientific, this kind of understanding are considered as Misconceptions. Parents as well as teachers should know about sources of misconceptions so that they can be alert for the development of these misconceptions and can work on the development of appropriate scientific concepts. In this paper, the researchers reviewed the previous studies for finding out the causative agents of misconceptions and the end the researchers concluded about the implementations on the findings of the previous researches.

Ms. Musmade Anjali J.

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7801 - 7813

 In day today’s life, Cloud computing is becoming very famous as a service provider among the several developers. It provides many services21` like storage resources, computing and communication as a service over a network. It is very suitable platform for developing new applications. The main aim of cloud computing is minimizing delays and provide high data availability. Since more and more applications are developing in cloud computing a major problem arises here is of big data management. While dealing with this big data many problems arises; here in this paper we study QADR problem in detail with considering number of aspects like Quality of Service, energy efficiency, load balancing in cloud computing data centers. We are proposing an optimal solution to this QADR problem with respect to QoS requirements as well as load balancing among different Data Nodes. For that purpose we are proposing a system to solve the QADR problem. In this system we are developing some algorithms for each aspect separately. So the appropriate Data Node is get selected through all these algorithms and data block replica is stored at this Data node.
Keywords: data replication, energy efficiency, Load balancing, cloud computing.

Mutkule Sunil Ashurba

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7814 - 7819

 The purpose of this study is to assess the information communication technology (ICT) literacy of the library professionals working in university libraries in Maharashtra. The study gives an overview of the present level of ICT literacy among library professionals and it helps to know the need for training and orientation in the areas such as ICT-based resources, services and tools to the library professionals working in university libraries in Maharashtra. A structured questionnaire based survey was conducted to analyze the ICT literacy among library professionals. The findings of the study reveal that, the ICT literacy level of the library professionals working in university libraries in Maharashtra is satisfactory. Majority of library professionals have acquired the basic ICT literacy skills which is required to handle day to day library operations, but still few library professionals need to enhance their literacy level in the area of open source library automation software, digital library software and institutional repository software etc. The study suggests that, university libraries should organize in-house training and orientation programs on ICT-based resources and services or depute their library professionals to attend the training and orientation programs on regular intervals, in order to enhance the ICT Literacy level of library professionals.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF HYDROELECTRIC POWER GENERATION- A SOCIOLOGICAL STUDY OF CHAMERA-I IN CHAMBA DISTRICT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH

Mohinder Kumar Slariya1& Hans Raj

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7855 - 7870

 Hydro-power generation is considered one of the most important renewable resource of energy and being required to meet-out growing energy requirement of the country. Being a sine-quo of any developmental project, hydroelectric power is being generated mostly in the Himalayan slopes and heavily targeted Himalayan rivers. Since fifth five-year plan, hundreds of such energy projects are being planned and most of them start generating electricity. These developments are not free of cost, there is huge socio-economic, environmental, psychological cost attached and presently, dam building industry, is one of most promising industry of the world and India is one of the top-10 dam builders of the world. This industry is impacting existing habitat, stream hydrology, stream chemistry, sediment transport, and migratory patterns, disturbance in social bonds, economic turmoil etc. and most importantly environmentally dams fragment river ecosystems, degrading the ecosystem upstream and downstream from the dam. 
The present paper is based on primary research conducted in one of NHPC owned power project in Ravi basin in Chamba district by using exploratory research design on 300 respondents. To see the impact of hydro power generation, both situations, i.e. before the dam and present has been analysed by applying suitable statistical tools.

GOVERNMENT POLICIES FOR QUALITY TEACHER EDUCATION

Mr. Vishal Deep

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7871 - 7877

 The Teacher Education Policy in India has evolved over time and is based on recommendations contained in various Reports of Committees/Commissions on Education, the important ones being the Kothari Commission (1966), the Chattopadyay Committee (1985), the National Policy on Education (NPE 1986/92), Acharya Ramamurthi Committee (1990), Yashpal Committee (1993), and the National Curriculum Framework (NCF, 2005). The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act, 2009, which became operational from 1st April, 2010, has important implications for teacher education in the country. In order to understand the process of growth and development of teacher education in India, It is imperative to have a look at its history and policy of the Indian Government that has shaped it into its present form.

ROLE OF ETHICS IN ETHICAL LEADER’S BEHAVIOUR AT WORKPLACE: AN ANALYTICAL REVIEW

Luxmi & Ms. Sneha

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7878 - 7886

 Ethics refers to the system of understanding the codes of organisations, its moral principles, and its values chain system moreover it is a belief system. Ethics is a term which comes into existence with the collaboration of three main elements i.e. belief, values, and morals. If we overlook these three terms we find them although similar, but there is a slight difference in them. Values refer to be the core vision of the organisation, which determine its base for existence. Values generally refer to something useful and important to someone, and that someone may be the individual or the organisation. Organisations image depends on the value system prevailing in their organisational culture. If an organisation framed a good values system, it will reflect in their culture and the culture consistency depends upon the skills of the leaders who manage that culture. The workplace culture is important to be getting understood to determine what type of leaders the organisations have. It is solely the leaders who are in direct link with lower and top-level and it’s their responsibility to create a culture which reflects the standard of organisation. For understanding the leader’s behaviour we need to understand the ethics which he/she follows, as the employees only follow the footprints of their idols. A responsible leader is one who manages the activities well in coordination with employee’s management at the workplace.

REJUVENATING TEACHING

Dhiraj Sharma

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7902 - 7906

 It is the teacher as a person and as an instructor who determines the quality of a teaching learning process. The quality of the citizens of a nation depends on not exclusively but to a critical measure upon the quality of their education. The quality of their education depends more than any other factor; upon the quality of their teachers. There is a great need of making a correct selection of teachers. The persons with high aptitude for teaching should be spotted out through proper testing and advised to join the teaching profession. Aptitude is the capacity to learn certain skills and abilities which are necessary for success in a particular area of work. In the recent decades, there has been a growing realization of the importance of self-concept as a means of understanding and predicting human behavior with the advent of phenomenal psychology.

HONOUR KILLING

Dhiraj Sharma

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7907 - 7913

 Honour killing is not a new concept but after getting this specific name \'Honour Killing\' it becomes familiar among the people throughout the world. In the primitive years it was not known by some easy and understandable names, but the recent development of the media has highlighted this hidden form of crime which might not have faced the justice and punishment. This paper is an effort to explain the concept of the honour killing, its characteristics, causes and results in India. “Honour killings" is a planned, pre-meditated, deliberate act of vengeance, committed most of the times by the family members against other close family members, who dishonored or defamed the pride of their family, caste, race or religious codes through a variety of reasons, including: refusal to the arranged marriage, being the victim of a sexual assault, having extramarital and premarital relationships, seeking a divorce from an abusive husband, marrying within the same Gotra or outside one\'s caste or committing adultery. Honour killing is also called a customary killing which can be an extreme form of domestic violence which is executed with determination and robustness. It reflects control over woman\'s behavior, feeling of shame and guilt and pressure of the community or religious sentiments or codes.

 Teaching is a process of understanding learners, planning, preparing, delivering lessons, evaluating the effectiveness of teaching-learning and reflecting upon different aspects of teaching for its implementation and improvement.
  In the teacher preparation programme, Internship assumes a central place. “Internship in teaching is an opportunity where the student teacher identifies himself with the teacher’s responsibility of the school where s/he develops right attitude, interest, and abilities to perform oneself as a responsible teacher.

WOMEN TEACHER AND CHALLENGES

Sushil Kumar Dadhwal

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7949 - 7956

 Women constitute half of the human resources. Unfortunately, the potential resources from this sector are not optimized for several reasons. Our constitution has guaranteed equal rights to women. But how far this is implemented is a big question mark because women need courage to defend their rights. The process of decision making is not very adequate in the case of women because they are mostly illiterate. In the rural areas of virtually all developing countries, girls are often barred from education, either because schools are few and for between and their families cannot afford their transport or fear for their safety or because their labour is ritually needed in the house hold and on the farm stead. The overall picture of girls and women is education is one of limited opportunity, numerous obstacles and questionable quality and relevance. In almost all societies women have been given inferior and unequal social position, because Indian Society is a man dominant society. Education is life long and continuous process of learning, change and development. Education is the heart of development process of developing nation. Development means the improvement in the quality of life of the people. I the English saying that “The hand that rocks the cradle is the power that rules the world.” Is very appropriate from the point of view of women education. Kothari Commission rightly revealed “For full development of our human resources, the improvement of homes and for moulding the character of children during the mist impressionable years of infancy.

Retailing is the last link in the chain of production, which begins at the extractive stages, moves through manufacturing and ends in the distribution of goods and services to final consumers. Retailing is not a recent phenomenon; it is as old as human civilization. However, modern retail business is different. Particularly, in service sector, retailing has transformed thoroughly. Now, retail business is among fast developing activities. India is ranked first among top thirty emerging markets in the world. Across the world, retailing business is on rise. Retailing is no longer treated as the part of distribution system, a one decision of marketing management; now, it is recognized as an industry with huge turnover.

AN ARTICLE ON IMPORTANCE OF THE GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF TRIBES IN INDIA

ShivRaj Singh Yadav

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7823 - 7832

The geographical distribution of tribes in India is important given how land use and territory occupied frame as central issues for most tribal groups. Many tribal groups draw claims to territory by asserting to be the original settlers of the land. In fact the term ‘Adivasi’ self-preferred by many tribal groups to describe their community in the literal sense means Adi or earliest time and vasi or resident of, which can be translated as the original inhabitants of a particular location. However, the constitutionally approved official term in much of the discourses on tribal groups is ‘Scheduled Tribes’. For tribes living near protected forests for example, preventing them from extracting forest resources can push them towards subsistence agriculture, which might not leave much for the entire population in the community. Many individuals might then suffer from chronic hunger because of insufficient supply of food for all. Key Words: Geographical Distribution, Protected forests, Human Anthropology, Inhabitats.

WORKING MOTHERS: EXPLORING SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ASPECTS

Vasiraju Rajyalakshmi

Issue: Feb-Mar, 2018 | Volume/Issue:6/26 | Page No.: 7845 - 7852

The duty of raising a child in our society is seen to be the duty of the mother. Motherhood is further associated to the female gender and expected as a responsivity of them which is at times seen as of higher priority when compared to other aspirations of the person. In the contemporary world and in the recent past, we have witnessed an increase of the female participation in the workforce. Furthermore, with the changing work environments, we have seen rapid increase of women’s participation in the economy. With this paper we look to observe and analyse, the conceived conflict between traditional motherhood and that of modern economic participation. Whether this conflict is existent and if yes, to what extent is it a challenge in performing either of the roles are the some of the questions we would like to observe the answers to. Whether modern concepts of motherhood are in contention to the traditional defined roles of motherhood when observed in the case of working mothers will be looked upon further. We will also look to analyse whether working mothers are at a disadvantage in terms of either of their roles i.e.: as a mother or as a working professional.

Radhakrishnan the World’s creation is an accident and is not necessary for God.  However it is real, but not illusory. In this process we find evolution from matter to life, life to mind or consciousness, consciousness to self-consciousness and finally, it reaches the state of spiritual consciousness."Change is the essence of existence”. Evaluation of the World Radhakrishnan distinguishes different phases of the world- matter, life, mind, and self-consciousness. Matter provokes the activity of the mind and matter as we perceive it, is a human product. Life is the next stage in the process of evolution.   We must recognize that life is unique kind of activity for which the formulas of matter and energy are not adequate. Similarly when mind emerges out of life, it is due to the principle of mind working with its own impulses and necessities in life. "It is a function of a later evolved and special integration of life”. Matter, Life and Mind While explaining the relation between matter, life and mind continuum, Radhakrishnan observes that materiality is the first manifested form of cosmic existence.   In the early stages of cosmic evolution there were no minds to perceive the physical world. “While the mind was admitted to be one of continuous movement". Matter at least was held to be immutable. However matter, life and mind which are the different levels of existence cannot be considered as inferior.

The aim of the current study is to investigate how prospective teachers' multiple intelligences relate to their gender, place of residence and level of teacher education. The 326 prospective teachers in the sample were selected from the W.G. district's three B.Ed. and three D.Ed. colleges of education. Armstrong created the Multiple Intelligence Inventory. This instrument is a confirmed, scientifically designed assessment of multiple intelligences. This self-report questionnaire has 80 items that assess eight distinct multiple intelligence factors. There are five possible answers: "Never," "Rarely," "Sometimes," "Often," and "Always." A score of 5 for "Always," 4 for "Often," 3 for "Sometimes," 2 for "Rarely," and 1 for "Never" should be assigned to each statement. Scores might vary from 80 to 400. The Multiple Intelligence Inventory has a Cronbach's alpha score of 0.897, indicating a high degree of reliability. Results indicated that prospective teachers' multiple intelligences vary significantly depending on their gender and level of teacher education.

Cracks in shafts have been identified as significant factors limiting the safety and reliability of machines. Cracked shafts still pose a significant and real threat to machines in spite of the great advances made in the areas of metallurgy, design and manufacturing. The ability to detect cracks at an early stage of progression is imperative to avert the aforementioned consequences which include failure of equipment resulting in costly process upsets and repairs among others. In this work, torsional and transverse vibration experiments are carried out to investigate transverse crack signatures for a shaft. The effect of the depth and position of an open transverse crack on the shaft’s torsional rigidity, fundamental peak acceleration, and natural frequency was investigated. The influence of a transverse crack upon the dynamic behavior of a rotating shaft is studied. Two cases of fixing the shaft are suggested in this study to investigate and analyze the vibration characteristics of the shaft with and without cracks. The fundamental natural frequency showed strong dependence on the crack depth, this dependence is smaller as the order of the frequency increase. Finally, the results showed that the change in dynamic response is due to the crack
