 Abstract

Man making and character building are most important tenets of Swami Vivekananda�s teaching. Education can remove social anathema. Swami said if the poor boy can�t come to education, education must come to him. He emphasised on assimilation, harmony, peace and also talked about cooperation for man making and character building education. Man making education must develop such individuals who are ethically sound, physically strong and vocationally self-sufficient. He said that a good teacher would be making ideal man.He observed, if you really want to judge the character of man, look not at his performance but his most common actions. Swam Vivekananda�s views on character building must be consider here. Continue to exercise, good thought and works, absence of jealousy, good habit are the ways to develop character .Which according to Him is the manifestation of perfection and the development inborn abilities of a learner.

Background & Objectives: Many students find ophthalmology clinics uninteresting and cannot understand and appreciate clinical findings. Therefore, they have poor clinical acumen, perform poorly in exams and don�t wish to pursue this field further for postgraduation. Modification of clinical training program using audio-visual aids in addition to conventional bedside teaching may stimulate students �interest in the field, enhance their understanding of subject and improve their performance in exams. This study aims to analyse effect of audio-visual aids in conjunction with bedside teaching on the learning process and experience of undergraduate students attending ophthalmology clinics. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted where 69 6th term MBBS students attending ophthalmology clinical postings were randomly divided into two groups. For one group ophthalmology clinics was delivered by conventional bedside teaching while for the other it was supplemented with audio-visual aids. At the end of one month both groups were assessed by means of OSCE and viva voce examinations. Students were given feedback forms and asked to score the teaching program on scales of 1 to 10 (1-poor, 10- excellent) on basis of criteria such as usefulness and content relevance. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in mean internal assessment scores. Bedside teaching with audio visual aids had statistically significant higher overall mean score of positive feedback. Conclusion: This study suggests though bedside teaching is quite effective on, the use of appropriate audio-visual aids as a supplement and not as a substitute to conventional bedside teaching could enhance the students learning experience.

The future goal for a smart city is to have a cleaner society. One of the crucial factor to be considered while implementing a smart city is excellent underground drainage system management. Drainage system monitoring plays a significant role in keeping the city clean . In fact, most of the rural areas does not even have drainage monitoring team Manual monitoring is not the most effective way for drainage management. Manual monitoring also takes more time to solve drainage problems due to slow handling of these drainage problems. So to tone down all these issues, the system using arduino consisting sensor nodes is implemented. This paper represents the application and implementation of a smart and real-time Drainage Monitoring System . The manholes present inside the drainage will have a module which has a arduino interfaced with gas sensor, flow sensor, NRF. The system will monitor if the blockage is occurred in the drainage or rise in the toxic gases. The proposed system is low cost, low maintenance, it works in real time and alerts the managing station through a message when any of the manhole exceeds itsthreshold values. This system will reduce this risk and will also benefit for public health and safety.

 Abstract

Teacher transfer intention, precursor to any formal expression of teacher transfer requests, if actualized, destabilizes staffing. In USA, between 2001 and 2010, teacher transfer requests was at an annual average of 13%, in Lesotho it was at 19%, while in Kenya it was 3.1%.These requests were high with those still pending in Mbita and Suba public secondary schools at an annual average of 25.4% and 22% respectively above Homabay County average at 11.1% for the period 2009 to 2014. The fact that an average of 30.9% of annual requests were to schools within these sub-counties with similarly difficult socio-geographical characteristics, over the national rating of 9.4%, implies that transfer intention could be associated with work-place conditions unique to schools. In this respect, literature reveals that a positive human environment may override geographical hardships. A baseline survey in 2015 revealed that 252(89.6%) teachers had transfer intention, 73(28.9%) preferring other schools within these sub-counties. The purpose of this study was to determine relationship between school work community interactions and teacher transfer intention in public secondary schools in Mbita and Suba sub-counties. The study was based Job Demand-Resources model(Bakker & Demerouti, 2006). The study employed descriptive survey and correlational research designs. The study population consisted of one County Staffing Officer, 66 headteachers, and 252 teachers with and 29 teachers without transfer intention. Purposive sampling technique was used to select one County Staffing Officer and 66 headteachers, and saturated sampling technique for 232 teachers with transfer intention and 26 teachers without transfer intention. Questionnaire, interview schedules and document analysis were used for data collection. Content validity of instruments was ascertained. Reliability of instruments were determined through test-re-test method and a Pearson-r of 0.721 for teacher with transfer intention and 0.716 for teacher without transfer intention questionnaire at a p-value of 0.05 was considered acceptable. Quantitative data from closed-ended questionnaire was analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of frequency counts, percentages and means, while regression was used for inferential statistics. Qualitative data from interviews was analyzed on an on-going process and categorized into themes and sub-themes as they emerge. The study findings were that at an Adj.R2 of -0.071 with a statistical significance of 0.000, ?0.05 for school work community interactions, there was a negative significant relationship with teacher transfer intention. The study may be useful to educational policy makers and administrators in addressing teacher work-place conditions management malpractices and human deficiencies for enhanced job performance and staff stability in public secondary schools in Mbita and Suba Sub-counties in Kenya.

 Abstract

Human resource information system is fundamentally a connection between human resources (HR) and data technology through a HR software solution. The HRIS is a software or online solution for the data entry, data tracking, and data information needs of the Human Resources, payroll, administration, and accounting results within a corporate business. A Human Resource Information System usually should provide the potentiality to plan more efficiently, govern and control HR costs to attain upgrade efficiency and quality in HR making decisions and progress employee and managerial productivity and effectiveness. In most of the times, HRIS will also lead to rise in productivity once it originates in making decisions in HR. The goal of HRIS is to combine the dissimilar parts of human resources, as well including payroll, labor productivity, and help organization into a less capital-intensive system than the executives used to be able to accomplish the activities in the past. Over the past ages, HRIS has qualified significant transformations. The focus has moved from the directorial management tasks to become a strategic partner of the overall organization plan, to a great extent with the strong support of information.

 Abstract

The study investigates the impact of foreign direct investment on industrial output in Nigeria from 1981 to 2018. Specifically, the study was carried out to specifically to ascertain the extent to which financial institutions and institutional quality aid FDI inflow in Nigeria and to evaluate the effect of FDI on domestic investment in Nigeria. To achieve these objectives, the study specified three different models with various independent variables. It employed the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) and Philips-Perron unit root tests, Engle-Granger two step approach and error correction mechanism which minimize the possibility of estimating spurious relations while at the same time, retaining long run information. Amongst other findings, the research findings revealed that foreign direct investment had an insignificant positive impact on industrial growth in Nigeria. Also, financial institutions (proxied by credit to private sector) had no significant impact on foreign direct investment in Nigeria. More so, institutional quality (proxied by corruption perception index) had an insignificant effect on foreign direct investment in Nigeria. Again, foreign direct investment had an insignificant negative impact on domestic investment (proxied by gross national private capital formation) in Nigeria. The study recommends, among other things, that the government should, through the Ministry of Trade and Investment enact and reform extant laws and policies that could boost the ease of doing business index for Nigeria. This could be done by reinvigorating investment attracting mechanisms in the less invested sectors of the economy such as the mining and quarrying sector.

 Abstract

IoT based bell ringing system for an institution is the main motto of the project. In our project, we use four major components which include IC RTCDS1307, Arduino Uno Board, 16x2 I2C LCD display modules. Arduino is used here for reading time from RTCDS1307 and display it on 16 x 2 LCD display. For alarm indication purposes an electric bell is used, which rings when the alarm is activated. Simultaneously the date and time will be displayed on the LCD module. We have designed the code in such a way that the bell will be activated for every 55 minutes as per the college schedule. We have programmed in such a way that the bell would continue to ring for 10 seconds in every block of our college simultaneously by transferring the information via IoT, which will indicate the students and faculty of the institutions about the completion of a particular session in all the blocks in a simultaneous manner.

 Abstract

In India Insurance Agents belong to the sector that independantly (not as an employee) sell financial products and services. There are over 40 different companies, which offer Insurance in India, under the category of life, medical, accident and non-life products. There are approximately one million agents in India of which 25% are women. This study identifies the various issues and challenges in work and life balance faced by insurance agents. It is unlike other products and services as here it leads to compromise in relationships with famil and friends. But at the same time if the agent becomes tech savvy and manages to become popular in the market then families and friends accept. Else the superstition of someone discussing after life support becomes the major challenge.

The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is a model that is used by investors to calculate the expected return on their portfolio. The model uses the risk-free rate of return, market risk premium and market beta in order to give the investors an idea about the return that the investor can get if he/she invests in a particular security or portfolio. This research aims to check the validity of the CAPM model in calculating expected return by comparing the calculated return with the actual return. In order to do this, the author has used 5 years of data from 1st April 2013 to 31st March 2018. The author has assumed the portfolio to comprise of all the companies of the Bank Nifty Index. The market beta has been calculated using the Nifty 50 index as the market and the Bank Nifty as the portfolio. Using the CAPM formula, the author calculates the expected return for the above-mentioned period and compares it with the actual return. The author finds a deviation of 1.7539%, where the actual return is higher than the calculated return. In order to confirm this, the author used ANOVA test between the actual and calculated deviation, which also confirmed the deviation. The author also carried out tests to check the effect of GARCH Model on the calculated return as well as expected return. Neither of the variables was affected by the GARCH Model, confirming that there was not much volatility in either of the variables. However, a basic standard deviation test carried out on both variables showed that the volatility in the calculated returns was higher than that of the actual returns.

During the process of dog domestication the dogs have undergone evolutionary change that resulted in seventeen fold increase in the Amy2B gene copy number. Amy2B gene encodes a pancreatic amylase which enables the dogs to be able to better digest carbohydrate than their carnivorous ancestors. Indian free-ranging dogs live in environment where their access to protein foods is limited. They survive mainly on starch based foods in the urban environment. In this experiment forty adult dogs were provided with either a carbohydrate diet or a protein diet. The aim of the experiment was to determine whether the different food sources would result in any behavioral changes in the dog. We found that the protein diet was the better diet for the dogs and under normal circumstances sex of the dog did not affect the energy acquisition from food source

Data deduplication is one of important data compression techniques for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data, and has been widely used in cloud storage to reduce the amount of storage space and save bandwidth. To protect the confidentiality of sensitive data while supporting deduplication, the convergent encryption technique has been proposed to encrypt the data before outsourcing. To better protect data security, this paper makes the first attempt to formally address the problem of authorized data deduplication. Different from traditional deduplication systems, the differential privileges of users are further considered in duplicate check besides the data itself. We also present several new deduplication constructions supporting authorized duplicate check in hybrid cloud architecture. Security analysis demonstrates that our scheme is secure in terms of the definitions specified in the proposed security model. As a proof of concept, we implement a prototype of our proposed authorized duplicate check scheme and conduct tested experiments using our prototype. We show that our proposed authorized duplicate check scheme incurs minimal overhead compared to normal operations.
