Abstract: Background: Mothers are the primary caregivers of the neonate. Thus the knowledge of the mothers regarding danger signs of neonatal illness has a great influence on the health of the neonate. Mothers need to know the danger signs of sick newborn. They can explain these signs to others or family member in a simple language so as to enable them to identify the danger signs of neonatal illness and to seek early and prompt medical help. Materials and Methods: An evaluative study with Pre- experimental one-group pre-test post-test design was used to assess the effect of video assisted teaching module on knowledge of postnatal mothers regarding selected danger signs of neonatal illness. 100 samples were taken using Non Probability Purposive sampling from selected hospitals. The data was collected using self-structured demographic data and knowledge questionnaire. The validity of the tool was established by experts from the different departments i.e. Paediatric Medicine, Paediatric nursing, Midwifery & obstetric Nursing, Educationist and statistician. Certain items were modified as per their suggestions. After the validation of the tool, the final tool was made and its reliability was checked. Tool was administered to 10 selected samples. Reliability was assessed using test-retest method for knowledge section, Pearson's correlation coefficient was found to be 0.91. Results: The analysis was done by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Researcher applied paired t-test for the effect of video assisted teaching module on knowledge of postnatal mothers regarding selected danger signs of neonatal illness. Average knowledge score in pre-test was 7.3 which increased to 15.9 in post-test. T-value for this test was 38.6 with 99 degrees of freedom. Corresponding p-value was small (less than 0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected. It is evident that the video assisted teaching module was significantly effective in improving the knowledge among postnatal mothers regarding selected danger signs of neonatal illness Conclusion: Most of the neonatal deaths can be avoided by early identification of danger signs of neonatal illness. Video assisted teaching module for recognition of danger signs of neonatal illness and increased health-seeking behaviour can lead to significant reductions in neonatal mortality. In the present study sufficient improvement in knowledge regarding selected danger signs of neonatal illness is found. Video Assisted teaching module was effective in improving the knowledge among postnatal mothers.

 Abstract

Criminal actions have always been associated with men but with the time women are also coming into the limelight. Women were always considered as nurturers, care givers and victims of this patriarchal society. With the increase in the violence against women, they are forced to commit criminal acts. In this paper, I have tried to analyse the concept of criminology from feminist perspective with reference to the biological, psychological and sociological aspects. This paper will also discuss the status and reasons of criminal actions committed by females in India and its neighbouring countries. This paper is written after referring to secondary sources such as journals, articles and books.

 Abstract

This article aims to present a comprehensive view of the Foster Care system in Karnataka, the matter of the adaptation of State Guidelines, the implementation of these guidelines and the loopholes within the current system. The strategy of this presentation has been to offer the two major case studies - one that looks at the current status of Foster Care in Karnataka (Home State to the researchers, currently), and then at the current system of Foster Care in Rajasthan (one of the only States in India reputed for having a fully functioning, government authorised system). As a result of these discussions, the chapter will propose a new model of Foster Care - one that takes into consideration the existence of Foster Care as a system of child care and protection, separate from the model of adoption. It will also look at the link between adoption and Foster Care, and whether this link should exist. This model also aims at providing solutions for the current limitations of the system as well as some form of risk analysis, that may present as warning signs for the system in the future.

Route with Indian Constellation (NaVIC) is the operational name given for Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) created by Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) for precise situating applications. In no distant future, the airplanes that are operable in the Indian area will be hand-held with IRNSS L5 and S-band recurrence estimations. The fleeting inclinations comprehend the sign conduct that helps for the security of airplane applications. We proposed a Recursive Least Squares (RLS) method to display the ionospheric range blunder as needs be with latitudinal and longitudinal angle data. The calculation turned out for double recurrence L5 and S-band signs and GPS L1 estimations acquired from IRNSS beneficiaries situated at a low-scope point (16.23oN, 80.44o E). To notice occasional slope varieties, the proposed model run for three long periods of September equinox, December solstice, and geomagnetic-upset action information. The separate all out electron content (TEC) with mean and greatest angles for multi-recurrence signals are talked about. There will be ionospheric gradients which will hugely impact on geomagnetic distributed ionospheric conditions and these decrease the accuracy of the NaVIC satellite system to avoid this we came with the idea of ionospheric gradient analysis using weighted least square algorithm for NaVIC L5 signals.

 Abstract

As we know digital images holds detailed information which play very important role in various applications. Due to environmental effects, errors while transmission, while acquiring image by sensors their might be noise interference in the image and to get expected or detailed information from noise interfaced image we need to apply effective denoising algorithm or technique to get back effective information associated with that image. As we know today there are superior techniques which are associated with technology. Even though denoising concept is challenging role for researchers. As we know for less salt and pepper noise median filters works well and enhanced techniques associated with median filters and mean filters gives impact results. Tolerance based Selective Arithmetic Mean Filtering is among one which work good for certain level of high noise density to restore image information. In this paper fast and enhanced Tolerance based Selective Arithmetic Mean Filtering Technique is proposed for effective denoising concept. Simulated results show that proposed technique performs effectively for highly corrupted salt and pepper noise.

Midday-Meal is a free school meal provided to a child during a school break at no cost. Very few countries provided these to all school children regardless of their ability to pay but many governments in developing countries especially, are increasingly implementing free school meals to improve attendance rates and reduce malnutrition. In India, the National Programme of Nutritional Support to Primary Education (NP-NSPE) scheme, deployed nationwide by 1998, 104 million children were covered in 1.6 million schools during 2013-14. It is an excellent initiative taken by the Govt. for school-level children. In the present paper, the researcher wants to compare the opinion of the rural parents and the opinion of urban parents regarding Midday-Meal Programme at elementary level.
