Learning disabilities are disorders that affect the ability to understand, or use spoken or written language, do mathematical calculations, coordinate movements, or direct attention. Children with learning disabilities need to study in normal schools for their normal development. Inclusive education is the solution for this objective. Teachers are the pillars of the education system and are responsible for proper implementation of educational policies, then whether it’s related to a normal school, a special school or an inclusive school. Teachers have been shown to have an important influence on students’ academic achievement and they also play a crucial role in educational attainment because the teacher is ultimately responsible for translating educational objectives into action and principles based on practice during interaction with the students. Motivation is the fuel, necessary to keep the human engine running. It is human motivation that moves the wheels of civilization.

Employment and societal status are equated with knowing English. There was a whooping figure of 274% increase in enrolment in English medium schools in India between 2003 and 2011. However the quality of teaching the language is abysmal. Teachers’ proficiency in English and teaching skills are looked at, as major problems in teaching English as a second language in India. Considering the linguistic diversity of the country and issues concerning language proficiency, most of the government of India has made provision for innovative e-resources in regional languages or with bilingual audio recordings. DIKSHA mobile app was launched in 2017. It is a digital platform with resources to teach English as a second language for schools functioning in 14 media of instruction. This paper intends to test the teacher’s understanding of the English textbook and check its impact on their use of DIKSHA app. 80 teachers teaching English in the Hindi belt state of Chhattisgarh in the district of Dhamtari were the sample for the study. The location was chosen based on the linguistic diversity and a mix of tribal, rural and urban population residing here. The teachers’ responses based on their pedagogical awareness and proficiency levels which are prerequisites to understand the textbook showed an interesting impact on their use of the app. Though the app seems to lend support to the most vulnerable teacher audience, it needs to work on its content to better the quality of teaching the language. The study highlights the possibility of literal consumption of information on pedagogy from various sources including the app but without the conceptual knowledge and proficiency needed to deliver the textual matter. However focus group discussions inverted these results to an extent making it evident that the teachers who spoke more of technology had been using other innovative pedagogy in class already. DIKSHA was only additional. Their seating arrangements interestingly threw light on how a compulsion or technological interventions on using DIKSHA in school had created a hierarchy among the teacher community. The more they spoke on the use and knowledge of DIKSHA in the text-book during the discussion, the higher they would be raised in the group present there. Their talk on DIKSHA decided their seating arrangements and their position in the hierarchy that nonetheless got created during the discussion and seems to exist generally also. Thus the understanding of the textbook does impact the teachers’ use of the app but the idea of understanding of the text-book in itself has changed to integrate now the understanding of codes and other directions for the simultaneous use of app. More than the actual use of the app, talking of the app got highlighted here.

Social science is a discipline that analyzes society and social relationships. This analysis helps imagine an alternate situation or future and gives a say in deciding and shaping society's collective future (Fuller & Lipinska, 2014). In the knowledge‐based society, social scientists integrate a plethora of knowledge that roots from diverse intellectuals and a wide range of social institutions. Perhaps that is the reason a social scientist is called a 'Public Intellectual' (Sassower, 2014). The research processes in social sciences differ from that in other disciplines. A literature review is the lifeline of any research, even more so in the social sciences. Composing a literature review is a systematic activity. It requires rhetoric writing which becomes more manageable if it is a well-thought activity. The present article is meant for providing the budding researchers an insight for embarking on writing a literature review, especially in social sciences, so that they thrive onwards.
