Concept Attainment Model as teaching strategy to teaching is concerned with the concept formation and concept attainment. Concept attainment is a process of finding out defining attributes of a given category. Concept Attainment Model helps to clarify ideas. It engages students in formulating a concept through the use of illustrations, word cards or specimens called examples. Concept Attainment Model is well suited to classroom use. This study was conducted to determine the effect of Concept Attainment Model on academic achievement of Secondary School Students in Chemistry by using experimental method. The sample of the study included 60 Class IX students. Purposive sampling technique was used to collect data. The students were divided into two groups (30 students in each group) i.e. experimental and control group on the basis of scores on intelligence test. The experimental group was taught through concept attainment model and the control group was taught by using traditional method. After completion of teaching, a self-developed achievement test was administered on both the groups. For drawing out the result, t-test was used. The result showed that students exposed to concept attainment model possessed higher score than the students taught through traditional method.

Issue: Dec-Jan, 2018 | Volume/Issue:5/25 | Page No.: 6864 - 6869

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

On November 8, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced demonetization of Rs. 500 and Rs.1000 banknotes of the Mahatma Gandhi Series. This is required to tackle counterfeiting Indian banknotes, to effectively nullify black money hoarded in cash and curb funding of terrorism with fake notes. The present study examines the impact of demonetization decision on gold prices in India. It is studied by comparing the data of gold prices for 30 days, 15 days and 7 days before and after November 8, 2016. The data consists of daily prices of gold obtained from World Gold Council database. Paired t-test and wilcoxon signed ranks test are used to study the statistical significance of the results. It has been found that demonetization decision has significantly reduced the price of gold in India. It may be due to the reason that after demonetization announcement, income tax department tightened the noose around the jewellers as people rushed to convert their old currency notes (Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000) into precious metal gold. It resulted in dropping the price of gold in India in short run.

Keywords: Demonetization, Gold price, Prime Minister

FOSTERING AND PRESERVING THE STRENGTH AND DIGNITY OF A MAN WITH REFERENCE TO JUANA IN JOHN STEINBECK’S THE PEARL

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

John Steinbeck was a prolific and popular writer who received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1962. His strength as an artist lies as much in converting the topical into universal. Steinbeck’s women characters are stronger than their male counterparts. They try to be perfect counterparts to their men by making active contribution to their domestic, social, economic and political life. Undoubtedly, their prime concern is their duty towards their family, but they are not blind to the happenings around. A living example of it is Ma Joad in The Grapes of Wrath (1939) and Juana in The Pearl (1947). For instance, one may perceive both the angel and the tigress in Ma Joad and Juana. This paper aims to study on how Juana as a representative of womankind plays the role of fostering and preserving the strength and dignity of his man, Kino in the novella The Pearl.

1200 cuttings made from the trees of Plum cv. Kala Amritsari were planted in 60 beds of size 1×1m., with 20 cuttings on each bed. Uniform sized 40 cuttings per replication were treated with ten treatments of IBA and PHB growth regulators by slow dip (24 hours) and quick dip (2 minutes) method before planting along with control. Results showed that IBA@2000ppm quick dip was found to be significant in improving the shoot and root characters in cuttings with maximum shoot length (16.87cm), average shoot girth (0.46cm), shoot number (4.22), fresh weight of shoots (6.82), dry weight of shoots (1.43g), leaf number (154.28), average leaf area (305.79 cm2), root number (44.90), average root length (10.88cm), length of longest root (13.5cm), fresh weight of roots (1.52g), dry weight of roots (1.09). While the cuttings treated with slow dip of IBA 150 ppm exhibited significant survival percentage (81.00%), percentage of rooted cuttings (74.33%) and sprouting percent (75.17%).

Australian poetry of the contemporary era can trace its origins to the bush ballads. They explore themes relevant to the times and also probe into the much debated topic of the times – namely environmental problems. They offer complementary insights on protecting the nature as well as learning from nature rather than presenting poems which have the non-human environment as a mere framing device. It makes possible a literature of indubitable goodness which not only delights but also instructs. A reading of the select poems of Judith Wright clarifies why she has been hailed as the conscience of a nation and here is an attempt to sketch how the she self-consciously frames an ethics of environmental justice to the non-anthropocentric world

Education plays a significant role in the preparation of life including youths. It helps them to identify their interests and aptitude and gives them a sense of direction to higher form of education particularly research. Spirit of inquiry, creativity and innovativeness are some of the natural endowments bestowed upon human beings, which are the keys to transformation of life. These factors, when manifested in the form of research, open new frontiers of knowledge, which is instrumental for all forms of development. Perhaps, this is the reason for which research is recognized as one of the core functions of the universities/institutions of higher learning and the universities have been rendering this responsibility with utmost diligence.

Assured water is one of the important inputs for good harvest which is sine qua non for Indian farmers and if water is assured then not only they will sustain but country can prosper, as we all know Gandhiji long ago mentioned, “India does not live in its towns but in its villages” (mkgandhi.org/gandhi on villages).In view of this, we have to focus on development of farmers as they have been providing us food by doing hard labour in all the seasons.Keeping in mind of these, inAhmednagar district of Maharashtra at Bahirwadi village ofAhmednagarblock by constructing awatershedin2001, many farmers as well as 400 acres of agricultural land have been benefitted. Of course rainfall (normal in the area is 500 millimetres) should be normal. Keeping in mind of this, a study was conducted in January 2018 about the crops grown, its production, farmers’ individual family income etc., and for this few farmers were contacted and data were collected from them.

Keywords: agriculture, crops, farmers and income.

Jayanti Dalal was an eminent playwright, critic and prose writer of Gujarati literature. His sense of employing experiments with form and techniques made him somewhat distinct writer. All his literary works are thought-provoking manifesting unique characteristics through analysis of human perspective. The story The Darkness Descends (Jagmohane Shu Jovu?) focuses on the feelings of Jagmohan, the hero of the story who loses his eyesight. The writer seems to reveal the truth that one should live with rational honesty. He aims at understating the human mind. The writer constructs a story through psychological truth, which doesn’t seem mere a fancy tale. The writer has conducted an experiment of a ‘story within story’ by using comparable Japanese story. The writer applies here his sense of experimentation with a view to comparing and analyzing the self with the others.

Keywords: psychological truth, human perspective, transformation, happiness, distress, life-spirit

CO-OPERATIVE LEARNING – NEED OF THE HOUR

Parul Aggarwal

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

This article presents an overview of co-operative learning, an instructional technique developed to enhance academic achievement through social and inter-personal skill development. Co-operative learning plays a paramount role in education, as it is one of the most widespread and fruitful areas of research and theory. Over the past several decades, it has attracted growing interest due to the vast amount of research conducted in education context as well as in social and clinical settings. The central tenet of co-operative learning is that through interaction and dialogue with others around a topic of study, student’s achievement increases, attitude towards learning improves and students learn and retain more information than through other more intra-personal, instructional methodologies (i.e. teacher directed/lecture style formats). Research points to all of these positive effects as well as improved inter-group, inter-ethnic and gender co-operation as well as increased self-esteem and confidence for all student population.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

This paper studies Constructivism as a learning strategy in the context of second language acquisition. There is an attempt to trace the history of the varied strategies of second language learning while understanding the need to develop a different approach for learner facility. Constructivism, in this regard, provides space for the learner to develop his understanding and strategies in acquiring language ability and effectiveness in its usage.The active participation of the learner is its core strength while stressing learner autonomy.The researcher explores its varying facets and the transaction in classroom discourse through the classroom activities, describing in detail their rationale and procedural aspects.

Recent studies suggest that air pollution may affect reproductive outcome. This study in mice aimed to investigate whether exposure to various gases released by air pollution would affect gestation, postnatal development, activity, learning and memory, and biomarkers of trans-placental toxicity. In utero exposure decreased weight gain during lactation. Cognitive function and levels of biomarkers of exposure were generally similar in exposed and control offspring. The chemical composition of the gases and differences in exposure methods may play a significant role on the biological effects observed in this compared to other studies.

IMPORTANCE OF INTEGRATION OF PEDAGOGY AND TECHNOLOGY IN TEACHING SCIENCE

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

This paper addresses the integration of pedagogy and technology in science teaching. Science teaching is such a complex, dynamic profession that it is difficult for a teacher to stay up-to-date. For a teacher to grow professionally and become better as a teacher of science, a special, continuous effort is required (Showalter, 1984, p. 21). To better prepare students for the science and technology of the 21st century, the current science education reforms ask science teachers to integrate technology and inquiry-based teaching into their instruction (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1993; National Research Council [NRC], 1996, 2000). Good teaching “begins with an act of reason, continues with a process of reasoning, culminates in performances of imparting, eliciting, involving, or enticing, and is then thought about some more until the process begins again” (Shulman, 1987, p. 13). Thus, to make effective pedagogical decisions about what to teach and how to teach it, teachers should develop both their PCK and pedagogical reasoning skills .In recent years, many researchers in the field of educational technology have been focused on the role of teacher knowledge on technology integration (Hughes, 2005; Koehler & Mishra, 2005, 2008; Mishra & Koehler, 2006; Niess, 2005). This paper discuss the role of science education in 21st Century, the aim of science education ,purpose of science education ,changing trends in science education, meeting the changing needs in science education, role of ICT in transforming teaching and learning, the link between ICT and pedagogy .At the conclusion it states that though integration of technology and pedagogy is essential for better science teaching but a balance between pedagogy and technology is required to avail the greatest benefit.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Teacher development has emerged over the last decade as a recognised area of study. Teacher development means, in terms of teachers’ own understandings of how they go on learning and becoming better at what they are doing. Teacher development is a process, not an event. It involves change over time and is achieved in stages. The stages are related to teachers’ experience gained in instructional and management practices over their career. Teachers must understand what it is to be an effective 21st century teacher with the abilities to develop the necessary skills. Effective educational leadership helps to make a difference in improving learning. Leadership is for everyone and as a result everyone is empowered to learn. Teachers are empowered to inquire into their practice to solve learning and teaching problems. As educational leaders, classroom teachers, students and parents will agree, 21st century teaching carries with a complicated mix of challenges and opportunities. Challenges include the issues of teacher turnover, accountability, changing student populations and student expectations, increasing budget pressures, and intense demand to build students’ 21st century skills. Thus, the present paper attempts to analyse Teacher development: Towards educational leadership in 21st century.

Sex ratio is an important parameter that reflects the status of woman in society. It is one of the important elements of population composition. Sex ratio is defined as the number of females per 1000 males. It is one of the important social indexes to measure the prevailing disparity between males and females and regional imbalances in the status of women. Nandurbar district is the mostly scheduled tribe population lives about 68 percent of the total population. It is found that the sex ratio among the tribal population is comparatively higher than the non-tribal population in 1991to 2011 census. It is found the study area more than 83 percent tahsils, the sex ratio is in favour of tribal women for which socio-cultural factors are responsible, while not a single tahsil, the ratio is favour of non-tribal women. Also observed the sex ratio of non-tribals has decreased from 926 in 1991 to 910 in 2011 and nowhere in the study area of Nandurbar was district the sex ratio nearly equity, in fact far low. It is because of the fact that the tribals don’t find any difference between male and female child.

OPINION OF HIGHER SECONDARY GIRLS ON INSTANT TRIPLE TALAQ BILL TO EMPOWER MUSLIM WOMEN: A STUDY IN MAU (U.P)

Dr. Shakera Parveen

Abstract Download Article Share and cite your Article

Islam considers both man and woman to be two equally important wheels on which life moves. It has been clearly stated that men and women are equally respectable and responsible members of human fraternity. Islam regards marriage as a most sacred institution. Unfortunately the practice of Instant Triple Talaq by a negligibly small section of the people in the Muslim community made the life of a woman miserable. Nowhere in the Quran is mentioned about Instant Triple Talaq. Very recently the Loksabha hastily passed a bill criminalizing Talaq-e-biddat (Instant Triple Talaq) on 28th December 2017 and a number of people both Muslims as well as non-Muslims were quite outraged.
    The Quran mentions of husbands divorcing their wives and lays down rules regarding how to divorce, what treatment to give after the divorce, such as maintenance to the divorcee and the upbringing and custody of the children if any, etc. The Hadiths mention wives seeking divorce from husbands and also divorcing them and have laid down rules regarding it.
    The investigator conducted a Survey to know the “Opinion of Madarsa and School girls at Higher Secondary Level on the need for Instant Triple Talaq Bill to Empower Muslim Women”. Sample consisted of 200 girls from four schools and four madarsas at higher secondary level (100 Madarsa girls; 100 school girls) in Mau, U.P. Simple random sampling technique was adopted. The study was carried out with the following objectives: (i) to find out the opinion of madarsa girls at higher secondary level on the need for Instant Triple Talaq bill to empower muslim women. (ii) to find out the opinion of school girls at higher secondary level on the need for Instant Triple Talaq bill to empower muslim women.(iii) To find out the significant difference between opinion of higher secondary school girls and Madarsa girls on the need for Instant Triple Talaq Bill to empower Muslim women in MAU (U.P)
     An opinionnaire was developed on Instant Triple Talaq with 30 items in it. Reliability and validity of the tool was maintained. Findings of the study are discussed in detail in the research study.
    Due to the practice of Instant Triple Talaq by few, a Muslim woman lives under a constant feeling of uncertainty. Muslim community has survived many traumatic experiences being in minority. It is time that Rational and Enlightened elements from Muslim community should come forward to analyze the sensitive issues of Islam.

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

A study was undertaken to find out the causes of worries in the students and the possible remedy to overcome them. The results showed that the students have mind, speech and body as three instruments for learning and all should work together in harmony to achieve 100% participation in the learning process. The output will be proportional to the input of participation. The students should remain as observers of mind, body and speech without exerting their authority of my-ness on them. The my-ness itself causes impurification in them and retards the learning process. The students should maintain awareness of separation from the three instruments at mind level. The constant state of happiness even in the state of unknowingness of the subject opens up the intellect and leads to furthering the understanding, thus overcoming the worries. In addition, strong determination as well as the dominance of intellect over the mind is essential to enhance learning

Issue: Dec-Jan, 2018 | Volume/Issue:5/25 | Page No.: 7248 - 7252

Abstract Download Article Certificate Share and cite your Article

Self-assembly of biomolecules facilitates the creation of a diverse range of hierarchical nanostructures from a wide range of polymeric and non-polymeric materials. Peptides and specifically short peptides are very attractive in this respect due to their unmatched biocompatibility, ease of synthesis, function ability as well as tunable bioactivity along with the availability of rich chemistry for fine-tuning the structure and function of peptides according to environmental conditions. Self assembled peptide based nanostructures such as tubes, filaments, fibrils, hydrogels, vesicles; monolayers have been studied by many research groups and found application as three-dimensional cell growing scaffolds, dental implants, neural tissue engineering scaffolds and as carriers for drugs, proteins and genes, nucleotides. Nanostructures are also being developed from designed or modified amino acids to have enhanced cellular as well as in vivo stability. These modified nanostructures showed enhanced drug delivery properties both under in vivo and in vitro conditions.

Keywords: Nanostructures, peptides, drug delivery, tissue engineering, self-assembly.

In 21st century the woman has proved herself a matchless workforce and this has brought the position of men and women on equal footing. The women can be seen marching into those domains of work which were previously dominated by the men, as in Defense services, taxation, police and many more. This example was well observed in 66th Republic Day celebration. Economic independence has made the woman not only to nurture their work place; there they are working but also nourishing her family. Playing a dual role in the public private sector as well as in the domestic life. The economic independence also placed the woman at higher order in the domestic life and removed the feeling of discrimination among her family members. The economic equation of the family is now equally influenced by her economic independence and this condition rooted up the infested conceptions of discrimination.

If a student becomes a researcher, then the learning process becomes successful in the true sense. But in Indian scenario it is not a reality. So, to adopt a research-based approach in the learning process has been a demand of the time. The present study seeks to know the different essential aspects of action research and to present the tri-dimensional cyclical heuristic method of action research as a strategy for learning and to analyze the same qualitatively. The study shows that action research may be a fruitful approach in the learning situation. It engages the learners more actively and more interestingly. The study bears implications for both the learners. The policy makers also may take a clue from the study. Key Words: student, learning strategy, action research, tri-dimensional, teacher

The general objective of this paper was to study the hot spots of covid - 19 – epidemic at district level in Uttar Pradesh during1st May 2020 to 1st June2021. Four specific objectives were set as the first to know the Trend of Covid Cases in Uttar Pradesh, the second was to map the Hotspots for Confirmed and death Cases, third to analyse the relationship between Confirmed & Diseased cases and finally the fourth to know the spatial pattern of the residuals obtained from studied relationship. COVID19-India API dataset was used for conformed and death Cases at district level in Uttar Pradesh.The results show the overall trend of the confirmed cases and death cases was strongly positive with r2 values of 0.76 & 0.98 respectively. The six hot spots for confirmed cases were identified as 01 at 99%, 03 at 95% & 02 at 90% confidence level. The six hot spots for death cases were identified as 03 at 99%, 02 at 95% & 01 at 90% confidence level.The results of the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) linear regression show the strong positive relationship in between both the variables. There were 11 districts below - 0.5 Std. Dev (standard deviation) and 11 districts above + 0.5 Std. Deviation. The results of Probability (p < 0.01) and Robust Probability (p < 0.01) indicate coefficient is statistically significant. Spatial pattern of the residuals with p-value (0.037097) is statistically significant, and the z-score (2.084691) is positive. So, spatial distribution of residual’s high values and/or low values in the dataset is more spatially clustered. Results indicate the districts in central part were more affected due to Covid-19 in Uttar Pradesh. This work will help to identify the more variables to explain the variability in the covid-19 cases in Uttar Pradesh. Keywords: COVID19,Geostatistical analysis, Hot Spot Analysis.

Families without sons were sympathized. In rural areas in particular such families often felt hugely inferior and were often disliked (Das Gupta et al., 2003). The previous studies were focused on couples’ preference for sons, primarily because of concerns over continuing the families’ bloodline and the need to be looked after in their old age. Thus, it becomes necessary to understand the perceptions of couples with only daughters. Such an understanding can give deeper insights about the increasing preference for sons in Indian society. Keywords: Only girl child parents, Sex Ratio and Old age Security.

This paper tries to delineate the similarities and differences between the three religious institutions Brahmanism, Buddhism and Jainism. The focus would be to see similarities in areas of monastic life, grant of entry to monastic life, and aspects of reality versus life portrayed according to the prescriptive texts. Another question that would be discussed is the idea of mok?a, nibb?na and kevalya. Was the path to liberation/salvation accessible to all humans or was it gendered?
