Pre-adulthood is a period amid which an adolescent realizes who he is and what he truly feels. It is a significant time for youngsters to build up their ability for compassion, conceptual thinking and future time perspective; a period when the close and dependent associations with parents start to offer approach to more extreme relationship with peers and different adults. Adolescence is the most vulnerable stage to the emotional issues, thus teaching adolescents about emotions and how they manage others and their activities can be exceptionally useful in their day by day battles and maintaining good relationships. The present study was undertaken to compare the emotional intelligence of tribal and non-tribal adolescents of Kashmir. Stratified random sampling technique was employed to select the adolescent students from the different high schools of Anantnag and Kupwara districts of Kashmir. Mangal, and Mangal emotional intelligence inventory was employed to collect data for emotional intelligence. Independent samples t-test was used to analyse the data. The results were found that the tribal and non-tribal adolescents differ significantly on the measure of emotional intelligence at 0.01 level of significance. Non-tribal adolescents showed a higher level of emotional intelligence than tribal students. Further the study revealed that there exist no significant difference between the male and female adolescents on the measure of emotional intelligence in tribal group.

The most awaited dawn of Indian Independence, along with the gaiety of freedom also brought the gloom of Partition of Indian sub-continent in 1947. The Political and geographical Partition was succeeded by religious fanatism which resulted in unprecedented dance of death and destruction. The religious turbulence threw millions of people haywire across the borders. Women were the victims and the worst sufferers in this communal vendetta of Men to seek revenge on one another. This aspect of the suffering is much focussed to criticise the ‘other religion’. Unfortunately, the suffering induced on Women by the Men of their own community in the guise of ’protectors’, is rarely spoken and recorded. Saadat Hasan Manto recorded this untraversed truth of the suffering afflicted on women in the short story ‘Open It’ (Khol Do). Therefore this paper attempts to speak about this unspoken savagery plagued on Women during the Partition of the Indian Sub-continent.

This paper is a study of the Third Age in the evolution of literary narratives that has opened immense new possibilities in an unprecedented way. Digital literature has emerged as a literature of circularity and potential- a highly malleable and potent mode that amalgamates characteristics of both print and oral literary cultures. It is also with this emergence that an alternate discourse has emerged. Language as used in the virtual realm has evolved with new coinages, innovations with linguistic structures and alternative uses of language in popular discourse in the virtual world. This paper shall take a closer look at the politics of authorship which takes an unconventional twist especially in the case of hypertext novels, and also explore what happens to the economics of writing and publishing in this virtual market of literature.

Consumers have numerous options to select and buy various kinds of apparel and accessories. Depending on stores or shops, offers branded and counterfeit apparel and accessories to the consumers to buy from. This availability of wide varieties of product confuses and bewilders the average consumer. Counterfeit products are imitations of brand name products. They are the look-alikes or spell alike of actual brand products. Counterfeit products tend to have fake company logosand brands. In case of goods, it results in patent infringement or trademark infringement. Though prohibited, production and availability of counterfeit is growing by leaps and bounds. The growth in counterfeiting clearly has an economic impact in the marketplace and on the manufacturers of brand products and social status of the consumers. This paper discusses various pertinent issues like factors affecting consumer buying decisions and to make consumers aware of taking wise buying decisions, opinions of various stakeholders in the process of branding and counterfeiting. The results suggest that most important factors that influence a consumer’s final buying decision are the price and quality of the product but those who are not able to afford the branded apparel and accessories select to buy counterfeit apparel and accessories as they can satisfy their social needs. The result of the study also indicates that strong and powerful brand in the market are those brands whose counterfeits are available on high rate irrespective of its illegitimate.

Government data suggests that only one out of every seven children get the opportunity to go to college. The Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) for higher education is poor (13.8%). This is a situation to worry so far as higher education in developed countries are concerned. Report suggests that no Indian institute was listed in the top 200 universities in a global ranking. These data are sufficient enough to understand that lack of quantity and quality both are the major challenges to our higher education system. There are some other issues which affect both the quantity and quality, hence higher education. Improper governance decreases the chances of creating additional capacity as well as quality in spite of having policies RUSA. Lack of adequate infrastructure is another major concern that should be taken care, as appropriate physical environment is the basic need for education. Although the job market has increased manifold but still remains far behind from the demand. It is also a matter of concern that majority of students are jobless even after completing higher education. Improper use of human resources is also an issue of concern. Problems are many but we have to find out the solution with a positive attitude to implement those at ground level.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of selected kinematic variables with the performance of upstart (kip) on horizontal in men’s artistic gymnastics. A total of five (n = 5) best male gymnasts of 18 to 23 years old from L.N.I.P.E., Gwalior (M.P.) were selected for the present study as subjects. To acquire kinematical data, a digital Nikon D-3100 video recording camera with a frame rate of 30 frames per second, were used during the execution by placing it left side of horizontal bar and perpendicular to the sagittal plane. From the video, the photograph of selected four phases (i.e. initial swinging phase, pike phase, kicking & pulling up phase, and support phase) were obtained by using snipping tool software. Joint Point Method was used in order to obtain the values of selected angular kinematic variables by developing stick figure. Height of Center of Gravity was calculated by segmentation method suggested by Hay in 1993. To determine the degree of relationship between selected kinematic variables (linear and angular) with the upstart (kip) performance of gymnasts on high bar, Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation technique was used. The level of significance was set at 0.05. The results revealed that all selected linear and angular kinematic variables at all the phase had shown insignificant relationship (r < .878) with the dependant variable (upstart performance). On the basis of results it is concluded that that the performance of any games and sports depending upon the multidimensional factors such as physical factors, physiological factors, psychological factors and so many other factors. Only due the slight association in the selected kinematics variables, the performance of the athlete cannot vary directly. Keywords: Biomechanics, kinematics, upstart (kip) on horizontal bar, sagittal plane, joint point method, segmentation method.

This paper provides an overview related to management of migration and human rights. The paper lays emphases on theoretically road map for the better understanding of the human rights specifically the vulnerable migrant. To eliminate widespread discrimination against the migrant workers and members of their families a Convention was adopted by the General Assembly of United Nations on December 18, 1990. The Convention came in to force on 1 July 2003. Migrant means is a person who is to be engaged or has been engaged in a remunerated activity in a State of which he or she is not a national. The expression member of the family has also been defined as persons married to migrant workers or having with them relationship that according to applicable law. In 2013, United Nations General Assembly High-Level Dialogue on International Migration and Development represents a key opportunity to address in a comprehensive manner the human rights dimensions of migration at the international level and to foster more effective cooperation and coherence between States, international organisations, civil society actors and other stakeholders. In this paper attempt will made to explore why it is important to embed the human rights framework and a human rights-based approach within the global institutional architecture on migration. Proper governance of migration and human rights explore future directions in this regard. Migrant workers are the human asset of the receiving country if managed well otherwise it increase the burden on economy.

The idea of a common school system is an old as Kothari Commission (1964-66) emphasized as the expansion of educational institutions broadly with an accent on equalization of educational opportunities. The committee had recommended education to people of all straits of society and envisaged a common school system of public education. In the light of recent passage of Right to Education Act as a fundamental right to all children between 6-14 years of age. There is a critical need to find ways in which this can be realized. 21st is also now widely acknowledged that without community as a primary stakeholder in the process, this right would not meet its intent. The act provides for various entry points for such a purpose, most critical of them being school management committees. Oxfam and many other civil society organizational have been working through various models for quite some time in which community of parents, teachers, local institutions and civil society have been working together provide a vision in which this right can be realized. In this study we are discussing about the role of community/ NGO’s in implementing free and compulsory education and what measures we have to adopt to solve the problems of dropouts.

The aim of this study was to biomechanically analyze the double handed back hand drive in tennis and to find out the relationship between selected kinematic variables with the performance of double handed backhand drive. A total of 5 male university level subjects were selected (aged 20.54 ± 2.11) from tennis match practice group of Lakshmibai National Institute of Physical Education by using consecutive sampling. The results of the study reveals that the relationship of angular kinematic variable(angle at left shoulder joint, angle at left elbow joint, angle at left hip joint, angle at left knee joint.) and Linear kinematic variable (height of center of mass at moment contact) was found to be insignificant at the moment contact. The relationship was not significant as the P – value was more than .05. The reason for such result could be that the player performance i.e. the double handed backhand drive was measured through Hewitt tennis test. In Hewitt tennis test, the subject required to place the ball in specified area so the player might have been more concerned and focus on the placement of ball in the specified area to achieve good score whereas the actual situation demands the placement of ball according to the opponent’s position.

In 21st Century, Education emerges as effective tool of change in the society. It has several dimensions like philosophy, psychology, sociology etc. Now the technology is playing a vital role in the field of education particularly in school education. Classrooms are going to change from traditional to smart. When we talk about smart classroom we require certain things like computer, internet, video camera, speakers, microphone, projector etc. This technology is also called Virtual Classroom Technology where the teacher can deliver lecture with both the mode like synchronous and asynchronous virtual mode through internet. This paper focuses on the role of virtual classroom software which provides the facility of synchronous and asynchronous virtual mode of teaching. By using this Virtual Classroom Software [VCS], the teacher can not only deliver the lecture but also evaluate the students. This software has several features like live class/online class, offline class, create future class, notice board, assessment, feedback etc. The teacher can use power point presentation/word documents while delivering live lecture. Students can easily communicate through chat/feedback segment to teacher and get quick reply also. The role of Virtual Classroom Software is very important. It reduces the huge paperwork and gives quick assessment. It is called “Any time, Any where classroom”. Teacher should manage the progress of the each students of the class through this software.

In this paper I have analysed three short stories, ‘Toba Tek Singh’, ‘Cold Meat’, and ‘Open It’, written on Partition by an Urdu writer Saadat Hassan Manto. I have tried to argue through the short stories that violence is always not about physical violation; it is also about the wounds and injuries that one incurs in one’s psyche. This wounds and injuries remain with the victims and the state of normalcy gets fractured. Thereby, the state of being and the ability of cognition get disrupted on the part of both the victim and the perpetrator of violence. Not only the common language is lost that paves the path to a permanent silence but also the ability to comprehend meaning gets obliterated.

Medicinal plants ought to have been given the status of a national resource. This is why their availability is essential to sustain one of the world’s oldest medical traditions, a priceless legacy of Indian people. Over one and a half million practitioners of the Indian Systems of Medicine, in the oral and codified streams, use medicinal plants in preventive, promotive and curative applications. While the demand for medicinal plants is on increase, their survival in their natural habitats is under growing threat. One strategy for maintaining balance between demand and supply is commercial propagation of the plant in addition to its rational and judicious use. The manures and fertilizers have profound effect on plants growth. Fertilizers are mainly inorganic and commonly synthetic material, which are rich in one or more of the essential plant nutrients. Visualizing the importance of R. serpentine, the proposed research work deals with the study of effect on the application of various combinations of FYM, N,P and K on its growth Similar trends in the growth of shoot height and collar diameter were observed in different treatments in first and second year of plant growth. However, maximum gain in height was found in the plants of the treatment NP. Maximum gain in collar diameter was recorded in the treatment P.

Child labour is a Universal phenomena and it is a by-product of socio-economic structure of the society. Child labour can be classified as hazardous and non-hazardous labour. Many poor parents bear children in order to enhance family income and poverty forces child to drop out of school and find employment in order to supplement their family income. Non-schooling of children has intimately connected with exploitation of child labour which is the consequence of social inequality, attitude of the privileged classes and lack of public involvement in the protection of basic entitlement. Lack of parental motivation and high opportunity cost of schooling also contribute to aggravation of the problems of child labour. The empirical research on child labour shows that, the child labour has been increasing in urban areas from the last two decades. Pune is not the exceptional urban area in increasing child labour in organized and unorganized sectors. The pune city is fastest growing city in India, especially in education, industries and hotel establishments. There are large numbers of hotels and restaurants being operated in the city Pune, all these hotel were classified in large size, medium size and small size hotels. ‘A’ grade, ‘B’ grade ‘C’ grade hotels. Child labourers are mostly working in ‘B’ grade (Medium size) ‘C’ grade (Small size) hotels of Pune city. The analysis in this section are mainly based on the data obtained from 300 child labour workers, which is 5% of the total child labour population of 6000 in Pune city. The present research study is an attempt to examine and describe the conditions of educational status and reasons of school dropout, which is being the problem of the child labourers engaged in urban hotels of Pune city. And the findings also analyzed the poor economic conditions, poor performance in school, less interest of parents, less interest of education, lack of school facilities, broken family, orphanage & migration of parents.Key Word: Child labour and School Dropout

Teachers’ participation in school administration is a vital component. Beside their general duty of classroom teaching, they have to perform many other duties to support the administrative process of school. These duties have changed with the passage of time, place and type of school management. The successful working of school depends upon the administration for which there should be a suitable environment for teachers’ participation in it. This paper explores the differences in five possible school administrative areas for teachers' participation in relation to the type of school they are teaching (govt.and private) and their stream of teaching (science and arts). The study was designed on descriptive survey research, targeting the population of all trained graduate teachers in govt. and private secondary schools of Himachal Pradesh. The stratified random sampling technique was used to select a sample of 200 secondary school trained graduate teachers from Kullu district of the H.P. state. Teacher’s Participation in School Administration Scale developed by Taj, Haseen (2000) was used in this study. The study revealed that trained graduate teachers from government and private school differ significantly on planning, communicating, controlling, evaluation areas and overall participation in school administration but do not differ on organising componentof the school administration. Trained graduate teachers working in government schools were higher on planning, communicating, controlling, evaluation and overall participation in school administration than their counterparts’ trained graduate teachers(T.G.Ts) working in private schools. There exists no significant difference in mean scores of science and arts trained graduate teachers on planning, organizing, communicating, controlling, evaluation and overall areas of teachers’ participation in school administration.

W ireless sensor network faces several unique challenges. The scale, resource limitations, and new threats such as node capture suggest the use of in - network key generation. The wireless channel itself can be used t o generate information theoretic secure keys. By exchanging sampling messages during device movement, a bit string is derived known only to the two involved entities. Yet, movement is not the only option to generate randomness: the channel response strongl y depends on the signal frequency as well. In this work, we introduce a key generation protocol based on the frequency - selectivity of multipath fading channels. We discuss in this paper how to secure packets in wireless networks

Administrative discretion is need and inclusive growth is the purpose. It must be the slogan and aim of every country. Administrative discretion can become curse for the country if it transform in arbitrariness. Administrative discretion is useless if it unsuccessful to get the inclusive growth. Mostly countries had adopted the concept of welfare state. To fulfill this purpose administration had required for some discretion. Administrative discretion is a means to get the aim of welfare state. India also had adopted the welfare concept. So the power of administrative discretion had also conferred for administrative officers. Administrative discretion was given to get the inclusive growth. I want to say through my paper that administrative discretion and inclusive growth both are going to parallel in India. There are many problems in sits way e.i. corruption, misbehavior, negligence and arbitrariness. Professor Dicey thought that administrative discretion is against Equality, and it becomes the cause of arbitrariness, discrimination and unjust so the purpose of inclusive growth may be fail.

The present study has been conducted to highlight the impact of change in relative humidity on the moisture contents of different kind of woods. Quite often, one finds that the doors and window frames exhibit different dimensions in the month of rainy seasons and hot summers. Such problems are more prominent in the areas witnessing significant changes in relative humidity level over the entire year period as compared to those where relative humidity remain in a constant range throughout the year. The engineers and interior decorators are therefore required to take into consideration this behavior of wood while using wood for constructing furniture, wooden floors and ceiling ,etc. to prevent any deformity in the structure at a later date. Preventive measures such as leaving gaps between two adjacent pieces of woods or filling up with some other material may be used to deal with this kind of problem. Further, the amount of dimensional change also varies with the kind of wood being used. The study has been conducted in Delhi-NCR region which faces phenomenal changes in the relative humidity level in one year time and therefore many people experiences such problem in their wooden doors and windows. Under this study, different pieces of Teak and Black Oak wood having same dimensions were exposed to varying level of relative humidity in different months and the change in their dimensions were recorded. Statistical tests – t-test and ANOVA were used to test the statistical differences in the dimensions and inferences have been drawn. Based on the observations, meaningful conclusion and suggestions have been made.

Often in any domain we seek the help of Experts for better decision making and a systematic approach. But these ‘Experts’ are very few in number and this limited availability on other hand may lead to a stagnation in the decision making or problem solving. What can be done as a remedy here? If we are able to explore and transmit the so called ‘Expert Knowledge’ to the novices, to an extent these sorts of difficulties can be solved. It is here where Expert Novice studies can be thought as an alternative. Expert Novice studies involve natural contrasts between individuals at relatively high performance levels in a given domain (academic, discipline, profession or hobby) and individuals at a low performance level in that given domain. In the teaching learning scenario if such researches are implemented it could serve as a better solution for taking right decisions at right time. This paper throws light to Expert Novice studies as a research strategy and its role in educational research.

In the paper, the researcher attempted to assess Professional Adjustment status of teachers working in Government and Private institutions on a sample of 792 teachers. Teachers have been classified into two categories viz. government and private teachers. To evaluate the status of professional adjustment of teachers, a tool viz. "Manual on Teachers Professional Adjustment" was used which was prepared and standardized by the investigator. The reliability and validity of the tool were found 0.89 and 0.66 respectively. On the basis of percentile rank and professional adjustment scores, professional adjustment status of teachers have been classified into three levels viz. well-adjusted, average-adjusted low-adjusted. Analysis of data was done by t-test and c2 test through SPSS version 13.0 and Prism 3.0. This study reveals that there is a significant difference between professional adjustment of government and private teachers. Even, proportions of professional adjustment between two groups are statistically significant at three levels of adjustment. The serious concern is that only 12-19% teachers are well-adjusted, 13-13% teachers are low adjusted and around 64-70% teachers are average-adjusted. The result clearly shows that the teachers who are working in government institutions are professionally better adjusted than the teachers working in private institutions.

Mumbai city became the first rider district for HIV/AIDS through commercial sex workers; Kamathipura (Known Red-light area of CSWs) and Thane is known as the industrial development section and the district provides the residential complex for the skill and unskilled workers. Most populated jurisdictions become the universal representative for future planning of the HIV/AIDS policy framing with modifying clauses. In-depth interviews conducted with People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA) also revealed that many men did not have comprehensive knowledge of HIV prior to being testing at ICTCs indicating the important role that ICTCs play in HIV prevention education 14. It is important to mention that Mumbai and Thane districts are showing high prevalence of the disease and having potential for high risk on the HIV infection front on account of its socio-economic, geographical and cultural background. These two districts are showing the fast thickening population of PLHA. A study would become useful to the government, NGOs and other institutions, the same will also be extremely valuable for researchers and it would help to revise of policies, acts and guidelines to strengthen the quality services among rural and urban HRGs which would not carry forward the HIV among the general population.

A well-functioning housing market influences not only shelter concern, but also workplaces for home-based entrepreneurs. The best housing sectors should enable the adequate provision of shelter at the reasonable cost and favourable schemes across all segments of the population. The customer’s satisfaction is an indicator of the efficiency and growth of the institution. In fact the key of the success of any institution providing customer service is appraised through the qualitative assessment of different parameters. Thus the main objective of the institutions should be to create, cultivate and retain the customers. If the institutions are able to fulfil this objective the residual results like profitability and productivity would automatically follow. The present research is an attempt of the researchers to assess the extent to which current customers are satisfied with the services offered by HDFC, a major institution working in the housing Finance Industry.

Faculty development through orientation programs is often called, has become an increasingly important component of higher education. Whereas it was once assumed that a competent basic or individual who joins education field would naturally be an effective teacher, it is now acknowledged that preparation for teaching is essential. Given the increasing complexity and pressures of education industry, new approaches to teaching and learning, and competing demands on teachers’ time, faculty members require a broad range of teaching and learning strategies that can be used in diverse settings. To help faculty members fulfill their multiple roles, a variety of orientation and faculty development programs and activities have been designed and implemented. These activities include workshops and seminars, short term courses and site visits, fellowships and other longitudinal programs. Many of these activities have been designed to improve teacher effectiveness, across the higher education (e.g. undergraduate and postgraduate education), and they have been offered to professionals at local, regional and national levels. However, despite numerous descriptions of program development and implementation, there is a paucity of research demonstrating the effectiveness of Orientation and Faculty Development interventions. The goal of this paper is to present the results of a systematic review of the impact of faculty development initiatives through orientation programmes on teaching effectiveness in across the higher education. The present paper takes into consideration the views of various elements connected and linked with UGC-Academic Staff Collages from Maharashtra and Gujarat specifically. It is hoped that such a review of existing

This present study is aim to study, mathematical skills of the pupil in relation to their brain dominance. Knowledge in mathematic related field such as numerical knowledge, arithmetic, graphical & geometric sense etc, are important for any individual for their day to day life. Hence the present study intended to study the mathematical skills of the pupil. Since each individual have their own cognitive level, hence the dominant brain be the factor for their academic performances. So this leads to study the mathematical skills of the pupil in relation to their brain dominance. The human brain divided into two hemispheres, the right & left, they do unique function and also having unique characteristics. All these aspects are considered for the study. By random selection method 190 samples were collected from students of standard IX. From the analysis, the major findings were arrived such as, the Left and Right brainers are differed significantly and the Left brainers are good in Total Mathematical Skills also they performed well in the dimensions viz., Arithmetic & Numerical, Statistical, Mathematical Linguistic, Logical skills. In other hand the Right brainers are good in Geometric skills. Considering right & left brainer in both gender (boys and girls) the left brainers are performed better in total mathematical skills. The relationship also shows that the entire dimension positively correlated with total mathematical skill for both right and left brainers.

Differently-abled children in inclusive education differs from previously held notions of ‘integration’ or ‘mainstreaming’ which was largely concerned with disability and special educational needs. It implied learners ‘changing’ or becoming ‘ready for’ or ‘deserving of’ accommodation by the mainstream. The benefits of Inclusive Education have been documented by a number of researchers. Inclusive education is about the child’s right to participate in regular education and the school’s duty to accept the child. Dearth of research in the opinion of school teachers (preschool and primary) in the Indian context served as an impetus for the current research. The objective of the study was to elicit from the school teachers (preschool and primary) the challenges faced and strategies to overcome regarding integrating differently-abled children in their classroom. The sample consisted of consisted of 20 teachers (11 at the preschool and 9 at the primary school level). Research employed a multi-method (face-to-face in-depth interview, observation and examination of records) was design. Results revealed that, challenges and strategies indicated by school teachers were categorized in relation to (i) schools, (ii) teachers, (iii) differently-abled students (children with special needs), (iv) parents of students with special needs, (v) regular /normal children and (vi) parents of regular/normal children. A majority of the participants (60%) stated that lack of infrastructure and facilities, such as classroom size, modified toilets, ramps, etc were major challenges for school, while half of them (50%) said that it was a balancing act of catering to different levels of children, the huge class size, the time restraint, their lack of training for teachers made it difficult to understand the child with disability and lastly dealing with the apprehension of the parents of normal students often leads to isolation, low self-esteem and even depression. A large majority of the participants (75%) indicated that normal/regular children find it difficult to adjust to the child with disability, misunderstanding them, pitying them and sometimes even being afraid of them and their behaviour and needs. Teacher’s judgment about children with disabilities could have a significant influence on children’s emotional, social and intellectual development. Since general educator’s willingness to include students with disabilities in their classroom is critical to the success of inclusion, a number of researchers have stressed the importance of understanding teacher’s attitudes and beliefs towards inclusion.

Sexism in sports is a quite common thing and it has been represented faithfully in cinema. The present paper is a thematic study revealing sexism in sports as shown in two movies of Indian cultural background: ‘Bend It Like Beckhem’ (2002) and ‘Chak De! India’(2007). It underpins the problems faced by the Indian sportswomen of those sports that are traditionally linked to men and also shows how women are discouraged from participating and competing in sports. It also highlights the male view of women as weak and less competent. The protagonists of the movies under discussion suffer sexism at familial, social and professional levels in sports because of their being women. The paper throws light on various types of barriers -such as socio-cultural, biological and psychological- which women players have to cross, in addition to dealing with a bizarre and weird kind of treatment which is never offered to their male counterparts. It depicts how family pressures and restrictions, cultural inhibitions, lack of support and biased attitude of society can ultimately yield to the determination of women players. The paper suggests that sports can be used as an effective tool for women empowerment. Key Words: Sports, Sexism, Cinema, Women, Indian.
