Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :There is no gainsay about the important place of English in our school and college curricula, It is an inevitable as the proverbial shadow of an object in light. The question of “Why English”? has been long settled. Intact even the thought of education without English is nightmarish and suicidal. Teaching represents the core of any educational system. The objective of teaching is the transmission of knowledge from the teacher to students. Apart form classroom lectures, more innovative teaching can be imparted through other modes including discussions, case study analysis, presentations, field projects, role play, simulation methods amongst others. Teaching methods in synchronization with the learning objectives will facilitate better teaching-learning process. Teachers are more than workers. They are also members of a profession. Their occupation renders definite and essential services to society. |

A CRITIQUE OF NASCENT SUBJECTIVE AGE IN SRI AUROBINDO'S THE HUMAN CYCLE |
Author : DADASAHEB SAHEBRAO SALUNKE |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :This paper critically examines the idea of nascent subjective age that Sri Aurobindo floats in his social treatise the Human Cycle.He terms this brief period which we are passing through today as a preface to the actual subjective age which is coming upon us. He defines as an age wherein man will live by the inner divine law of his true inner being. The paper illustrates the concept of cyclical progression of human society and then terms the present age as a transitory phase between the age of reason and the upcoming subjective age. Since Sri Aurobindo's primary aim and concern in all his philosophical writing is to unearth the psychological and spiritual dimension of all things and phenomena, the paper analyzes features and impact of the nascent subjective age on human society and its institutions and finally draws conclusions |

Author : UDAYSINH R. MANEPATIL |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Leadership is very essential in every organization because the success or failure of an organization depends on the quality of leadership of top management. It can be said that manager can manage the business activities without having leadership qualities, but if he has leadership-qualities, he manages his business more efficiently. It is true that ineffective leadership may lead to failure of business. This is because leadership-qualities are very essential for manager to direct the activities of subordinates in right direction. Therefore, managers at each level of management are leaders and they must have leadership-qualities to direct the activities of their subordinates. |

ANAL YSIS OF TRAINED NEURALNETWORKS |
Author : N.VEDA V ATHI AND DHARMAIAH GURRAM |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Neural Networks are typically thought of as black boxes trained to a specific task on a large number of data samples. In many applications it becomes necessary to “look inside” of these black boxes before they can beused in practice. This is done in case of high risk applications or applications with a limited number of training samples. This paper describes several techniques of analysis of trained networks, which can be used to verify that the networks meet requirements of the application. The two main approaches advocated are sensitivity analysis and analysis by means of graphs and polytopes. The algorithms developed for the neural network analysis have been coded in form of a Matlab toolbox. |

WAY FORW ARD IN INDIAN EDUCATION |
Author : NIRJAKUMARI AND ASHUTOSH KR. GUPTA |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Education is viewed as one of the major catalyst for economic, social, cultural, and technological change in society . The role of education in driving a country's economic growth and propelling socio-cultural and political reforms is beyond doubt, well established. The experience of India is no different. India's progress in providing access to quality and relevant education to its children and youth is a story of mixed results, with some remarkable outcomes and some nonstarters. While India can boast of contributing a lar ge number of human resources to the pool of the world's most educated, scientifically and technically qualified people, it is equally appalling that the same country accounts for more than a thir d of the world's illiterates also. The paradox lingers to within country variations — with some states having educational development comparable to many developed countries while others rate worse than many poorest countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. |

Author : SACHENDRAKUMAR TRIP ATHI |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The present study deals with the investigation of chlorococcales in Ganga water between Bithoor (Kanpur Dehat) to Jajmau, Kanpur (U.P .). Herein qualitative and quantitative estimates of the algal compounds have been made on monthly basis and as many as 15 genera (Actinastrum,Chlor ococcum, Golenkinia, Ankistrodesmus, Closteritun,Coelastrum Selenastrum, Senedesmus, Characium, Chlorella, T eraedon, Hydrodictyon, Closteriopsis, Crucigenia, and Oocystis,) spread over 46 species were recorded. Chlorococcals play an important role in determining water quality , odor , colour and pollution. There are many species which can tolerate high organic pollution. Their role as possible indicator of organic pollution has been discussed. The Compound Quotient value for Ganga water is high which points towards the fact that the water is eutrophic with organic pollution. Present study aims to find out a potential algal pollution index as an indicator of organic pollution and biomonitoring of polluted water . Organic pollution in water bodies is incr easing day by day because of rapid industrialization, disposal of municipal, sewage and domestic wastes in water bodies. These pollutants bring about a change in physico-chemical characteristics as well as in biotic components of ecosystem. Different indices to evaluate the organic pollution of a water body on the basis of algal groups have been used |

Author : ANUJ JAIN |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :As far as we know , anatomy is the oldest medical science. Cave paintings of the early Stone Age, about 30,000 years ago, show a simple knowledge of the anatomy of animals, and it is assumed that these cave dwellers applied some of their anatomical knowledge to their own bodies. The civilizations of the Babylonians, as Syrians, Egyptians, Chinese, and Hindus made no serious attempt to learn anatomy because they were inter ested in the supernatural world, not the natural one, and their cultures placed strong religious restrictions against debasing the body . |
