Effectiveness Of Multi-mediated Stories For Developing Language Skills In English

In the field of language teaching, educators have to struggle hard to find way to make language learning enjoyable for the learners. Different activities, games and fascinating stories have helped language teachers to accomplish this aim through many years and nowadays ‘CALL’ (Computer Assisted Language Learning – use of computers specifically for the purpose of learning language) – is in the air in language learning.

Emergence Of New Evaluation System For Education In The 21st Century

Merits and demerits of everything are always together. Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation system is heralding our education system into a new era. If implemented in its right form, it is really an innovative and vibrant approach to make studies less burdensome for students and inculcate learning in right way.  So we should try to implement it in better way.

Indian Medical Tourism Industry: Growth Opportunities And Challenges

Most of the population from developed countries like United Sates and Europe see an advantage in traveling to developing third world countries, like Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, Philippines, South Africa, etc. while combining medical treatments with an option of inexpensive vacation. This trend is now popularly known as Medical Tourism or Health Tourism or Wellness Tourism. Medical tourism has greatly developed overtime and it is likely to further expand more as people find it more and more advantageous.

Kalidasa's Kumarasambhava: A Study In The Context Of Global Warming

Analyzing contemporary issues of Global Warming, the paper deals with Kalidas’s  Kumarasambhava. It discusses the problem of Global Warming earlier raised by an Indian writer in Sanskrit. Focusing on the worst effects of the problem, the epic symbolically suggests the effects of the violation of nature and natural flora and fauna. Today the globalization is a big challenge to the world. It is right that we have been availed with advanced technology and super-developed machines due to the fast and furious process of modernization and globalization.

Assessment Of Soil And Water Quality With Reference To Benthic Communities Of Purna, Navsari, Gujarat

The present investigation aimed to assess the benthic communities with respect to physico-chemical characteristics of water & soil in the Intertidal and fresh water region of Purna, Navsari, Gujarat. The study carried out for the period of 5 months (May-2008 to Sept-2008).The physico-chemical parameters selected for the study were soil moisture, WHC, soil nutrients, organic matter Epiflora was dominated by Diatoms. In Faunal community Polychaete worm, Nematodes, Turbellarian, Molluscans, Mud crab and Mud skipper were found.

Study On Shrimp Farming Technique In Gujarat State

Shrimp farming has been practiced in India for centuries on a traditional manner in certain coastal state. Scientific shrimp farming was developed during the early 1980s. Thousands of hectares of coastal lands were converted into shrimp farming. Shrimp farming activities in Gujarat state are also not uncommon at present.  Gujarat is having 1,600 km long coastline and a vast stretches of brackish water area throughout the coastline which is ideal for shrimp culture.  Shrimp farming activities developed fast in the last decade.

STRUCTURAL, OPTICAL AND ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE NANOPARTICLES

Structure of calcinated TiO2 has been examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. The formation of the single phase TiO2 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the structural parameters were refined by the Rietveld analysis. A good agreement between observed and calculated X-ray diffraction pattern was obtained from the Rietveld refinement using space group I 41/ amd. The calculated unit cell parameters are used to plot the structure.

A Software To Calculate Crystalline Size By Debye-Scherrer Formula Using VB.NET

X-Ray diffraction is a tool for the investigation of the fine structure of matter. Initially X-Ray diffraction was used only for the determination of crystal structure but now a days the data from X-ray diffraction have also been  used to determine the crystalline size using Debye-Scherrer formula.  Generally one has to deal with limited data because of laborious and time consuming manual methods of calculation. Sometime calculations with lots of data are required in order to determine different crystalline sizes for the statistical analysis or other applications.

EXTRACTION BIAS DEPENDENT PARAMETERS OF NON IDEAL SCHOTTKY DIODE

More than three decades Schottky diodes (rectifying contacts) are widely used in power industry. It is a majority carrier device where minority carrier storage is usually not important. As a result Schottky device have very high switching speeds with minor forward voltage drop making them ideal for output stages of switching power supplies.  Here in this paper the In/p-Si Schottky diode showed non ideal I-V behaviour with an ideality factor 2.12. It may be thought a metal-interface layer-semiconductor (MIS) configuration.
