Author : Sulaiman Al-Reyaee , Aquil Ahmed |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The growth and popularity of online social networks have created a new world of collaboration and communication. Facebook, which is one of the most popular and commonly used social networks connecting millions of users together, has been embraced by many educational institutions in the Western world in order to facilitate enhanced communication, collaboration and research. However, the usage and effectiveness of Facebook in the Arab World remain unexplored. The present study aims to fill the gap by examining the extent and intensity of Facebook usage among King Saud University’s students and investigates their reasons/purposes for using this social software. In addition, it is intended to understand and measure students’ attitudes and perceptions and the challenges and concerns associated with the use of Facebook in education. As expected, above 97% of students in the survey had a Facebook account and younger users significantly found to be spending more time on Facebook than their older counterparts. The paper concludes that the phenomenon of Facebook usage in Saudi Arabia is rising among university students as it provides individuals with a way of maintaining and strengthening social ties, which can be beneficial in both social and academic settings. |

CHILD LABOUR & GOVERNMENT POLICIES IN INDIA |
Author : Amit Bhowmick |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Child labour is an unfortunate reality in many of the world’s poorer countries. It is a complex reality, a burning problem and a universal phenomenon. It is a chronic and deep- rooted problem, peculiar to developing countries, especially India. It is, in fact, a betrayal of child’s rights as a human being and an offence against civilization. Child labour today figures to an astounding 250 million and India holds the dubious distinction of harbouring the largest number of children in servitude. As per Government figures, 185,000 child domestic labourers and another 75,000 children in dhabas etc. out of total number of 12.59 million child labourers exist in the country.

Author : Musthafa .Mohamed Firose , J.M.Asgarali Patel |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The concept of self-esteem is one of the main research topics in the field of Education Psychology. Self-esteem is a positive or negative orientation toward oneself, an overall evaluation of one’s worth or value. It indicates the extent to which an individual believes himself or herself to be competent and worthy of living. Coopersmith (1967) defines self-esteem “as the evaluation which the individual makes and customarily maintains with regard to himself; it expresses an attitude of approval or disapproval and indicates the extent to which an individual believes himself to be capable, significant, successful and worthy”. Rosenberg (1965) defines it as follows: “By self-esteem we refer to the evaluation which the individual makes and customarily maintains. Esteem may be regarded as being equivalent to self-regard or self-respect. Research has been done on the important role of high Self-esteem in academic achievement, social and personal responsibility (Redenbach 1991). |

Author : V. Sellam , R. Swaminathan |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Agriculture is the backbone of an agriculture country, like India. On the other hand, in India, the middlemen enjoy the cream at the cost of disability, illiteracy etc, of the poor Indian farmers. A small part of the price paid by buyers reaches the farmers while the big part is sucked by the middlemen. Farmers are handicapped mainly in securing a fair and reasonable price for their produce. The reasons are many-lack of regulated markets, ungraded produce, no Agmark, inadequate storage and warehousing facility etc. At present, the conditions have been greatly improved. Today, agriculture being modernized, leads to manifold productions. The role of marketing is fast changing. Hence the researcher is attempted to analyze the prospects and problems in marketing of cotton in perambalur district as it is one of the leading and traditional agricultural products in India. |

MARINE POLLUTION IS ALARMING COASTAL VILLAGES IN KANYAKUMARI DISTRICT - AN ANALYSIS |
Author : S. Sahayaselvi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The only reserve for millions of fishermen in the world is the marine resources. They are solely depending upon the sea for their livelihood. Due to marine pollutants, the fishermen as well as the people who consume fish have adverse effect like skin irritations, eye irritation, blindness, lung and liver problems, low fertility and poor birth survival rates. Further, there is a drastic fall of marine fish from 60 per cent in 1990-91 to 36.70 per cent in 2012-2013. The recent research states that the world’s largest landfill is not on land but in the Pacific Ocean. Adding to that, 80 per cent of all marine pollution originates from land-based sources which are primarily industrial, agricultural and urban. Therefore, this research paper focuses on addressing the readers and the policy makers about the extent of pollutants that are submerged in the sea water and its serious effect on both marine and human life. Results indicate that 52.4 per cent of the sample respondents yearly income is less than 1, 00,000 per annum due to depletion of fish in the sea. 45.8 per cent of the sample respondents spend above. 10000 for medical purposes. Therefore this paper offers some valuable suggestions to control the marine pollution and save both human and marine lives. |

Author : Joyanta Sarkar, Utpal Biswas |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :This investigation aims to develop a mathematical model for prescribing the behavior of an idealized vibrating string. By mathematical model we can calculate theoretical amplitudes for the different harmonics, based on the extent and position of the pluck. In this paperwe are presenting an investigation on the influence of the position and method of plucking a guitar string for the distribution of energy between fundamental tone and overtones. It was done by recording sound samples from an acoustic guitar, and numerically analyzing the data using computer software. Conclusively, it is stated that there were more overtones produced when the string was plucked close to the edge of the guitar. Since the paper was a physics investigation, it examined the matter experimentally, presenting little to no mathematical explanations for the results. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :On August 29th, 2012, President Barrack Obama sat in front of a computer, uploaded a picture
of him, and began answering user-submitted questions on Reddit. Some might have claimed that this
was a cheap way to win over voters, but let’s think about this for a little: it wasn’t all that long ago when
we considered social media to have limited value as a publicity platform for anyone that wasn’t in a
garage band. Since Mr. Modi took office last year as leader of the world’s largest democracy, policy
pronouncements have come in 140-character snippets. He has used Twitter and other social-media
services to engage in diplomacy and build his image in a way few other global leaders have. |

Author : Rajshekhar V. Shinde |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Orality is a term that is applied to languages that do not have a prevalent form of written communication. The term refers to the way that language is used in thinking and speaking in populations that do not have widespread access to a written form of their language. Oral traditions have been studied for many centuries because it is understood that spoken language came long before written language. The study of orality comes out of the study of oral traditions. However, the study of orality does not simply study the language itself. Rather, it also views cultures that rely on orality through an anthropological lens. |

GRAMMAR-TRANSLATION APPROACH OF LEARNING ENGLISH |
Author : Sudhansu Dash |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Translation itself was an academic exercise rather than one which would actually help learners
to use language, and an overt focus on grammar was to learn about the target language rather than to
learn it. But at the height of the communicative approach to language learning in the 1980s and early
1990s it became fashionable in some quarters to deride so-called old-fashioned methods and, in
particular, something broadly labeled "Grammar Translation". As with many other methods and
approaches, Grammar Translation tended to be referred to in the past tense as if it no longer existed
and had died out to be replaced world-wide by the fun and motivation of the communicative
classroom. In examination of the principal features of Grammar Translation, however, we will see
that not only has it not disappeared but that many of its characteristics have been central to language
teaching throughout the ages and are still valid today.

The heritage values of archaeological remains, inherited buildings and urban areas are shape cultural policies, which involved in the construction of national identities. Everywhere in the world, because of rapid urbanisation and extension outside of their ramparts and historical frameworks, cities have recently colonised larger territories. This form of colonisation has taken different shapes: urban sprat; and densification of peripheral areas; suburbanisation, which has absorbed villages and created new neighbourhood; and voluntarist policies, which have tried to manage urban extensions through the creation of satellite towns located a few kilometres away from the min city. |

Abstract :The present study was carried out on
Dhukeshwari Temple Pond, the freshwater
lentic ecosystem in Deori, District Gondia to
obtain the baseline data of Crustaceans with
reference to Cultural Eutrophication for the
period of 2014-15. As like Rotifers,
Crustaceans are also one of the most
important biotic components in the
freshwater ecosystem as they are integral
part of the aquatic food chain, in which they
dependent on phytoplanktons and detritus,
they contribute to minimize the biomass of
phytoplankters. Crustacean becomes most important component of the natural purifying system in
Eutrophic waters. The Dhukeshwari Temple Pond is under pressure of anthropogenic activities. In the
present observation 27 species of Order Cladocera were recorded from the 06 families, with highest
diversity with 08 species in Family Chydoridae and Aloniae with 08 species. In Subclass Copepoda, 04
species were recorded from order Calanoida, 01 with order Harpacticoida and 01 with Cyclopoida. 04
species for Class Ostracoda from Cypridae family are also observed. Their role in determination of the
trophic status of pond ecosystem is discussed. |

Abstract :A soft skill is a new way to describe a set of abilities or talents that an individual can bring to the workplace. It characterizes certain career attributes that individuals may possess like ability to work on a team, effective communication skills, excellent leadership skills and understanding of professional ethics. Experts believe that today a lot of professional students are unemployed as they earn the certifications, but the right attitude and values which are required in a workplace are missing. Thus there is a great need for bridging the gap between the skills delivered in academics and the skills required in a workplace. The training of soft skills helps the students to face the challenges in their workplace and for their professional growth in future. This paper attempts to analyze the perception of the students on the need of learning soft skills to cope with their professional life. |

Abstract :Indian marine products are wanted internationally. There is potential for a higher market share in importing countries. Shrimp contributed 62% by value and 28% by volume of exports in 2002-03. The potential market for marine exports is in value added products (cooked, ready to eat and ready for table), freeze dried shrimps (wherever reduced transportation cost can bring in competitive advantage), surimi and canned fish. While infrastructural requirements are essential in the entire supply chain, the quality of infrastructure in the pre-processing stage is significantly lower than the processing and post-processing stages. This paper focuses on the scope analysing Import and Export trends of Fish Undustry and challenges faced by them namely… |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :This paper presents geomor phological mapping of the Igarapé Grande basin representing a subdivision following the proposal of major classification proposed by Ross (1992) and the Manual Técnico de Geomorfologia (IBGE, 2009). The subdivision extends from the first táxon on a smaller scale, 1: 250,000 related to Morphostructure, by the fifth and sixth táxon on a scale of 1: 20,000, with the latter respectively include the forms of strands and current erosion and accumulation processes . The partitioning are grouped into morphostructural unit, morfoescultural unit, morphological units, relief types, types of slopes and current processes. The basin is located in the urban area of the city of Porto Velho - RO, flowing into the right bank of the Rio Madeira. For this work we used GIS techniques to define the geomorphological units, among which remote sensing, the vectorization of geospatial data and map-making. |
