SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE OF TEACHER TRAINEES

This study was initiated to investigate the impact of spiritual intelligence on the Teacher trainees related to their gender, type of family and marital status. A sample of 33 M.Ed. teacher trainees’ was selected. A tool on Spiritual Intelligence devised by Prof. Roquiya Zainuddin and Ms. Anjum Ahmed was used for the present study. The data was analysed by using Mean, S.D. and t-test. The findings of the study revealed that there was a high Spiritual Intelligence in Teacher Trainees. There is no significant difference in the SI Scores of Male and female Teacher Trainees.

STUDY OF ADJUSTMENT OF STUDENT TEACHERS

The present study was conducted to study the adjustment of student teachers with reference to their gender, stream, educational qualification and category. A sample of 94 student teachers of Bhuj was selected by simple random sampling technique. The study revealed that the student teachers of  science faculty are better adjusted than the student teachers of arts. It is also revealed that  the student teachers from Open category are better adjusted than the student teachers of  SC and ST category.

WHY WE NEED TO RE-ENGINEER OUR HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS?

At the beginning of India’s independence in 1947, there were 20 universities and 500 colleges while student enrolment at the tertiary level of education was 0.1 million. After independence the growth has been quite impressive .This has increased to 611 universities and university-level Institutions and 31,324 colleges as on August 2011.

TEACHING THROUGH SYNECTICS: PAVING WAY TO INNOVATIVE PRACTICES

William J. J. Gordon and his associates designed Synectics, an interesting approach to the development of creativity. Analogies are the chief element of Synectics. In Synectics exercises students ‘play’ with analogies until they relax and begin to enjoy making more and more metaphoric comparisons. Then they use analogies to attack problems or ideas. It is designed to lead students into slightly illogical world to give us the opportunity to invent new ways of seeing things, expressing ourselves and approaching problems. There are two strategies based on Synectics procedure.

VOLTAMMETRIC STUDY OF PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE USING GLASSY CARBON ELECTRODE

The oxidative behaviour of pyridoxine hydrochloride was studied at a glassy carbon electrode in 0.06 M Na2HPO4 – NaH2PO4 buffer using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The oxidation process was shown to be irreversible over the entire pH range studied (5.0 - 9.0). The influence of the operational parameters like scan rate, pulse amplitude, and pulse period for the analytical signal was investigated.

STUDIES THE EFFECT OF TIG WELDING PARAMETERS ON IMPACT STRENGTH OF 5083 ALUMINUM ALLOY

Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is a high quality welding process used to weld the thin metals and their alloy. 5083 Aluminium alloys play an important role in engineering and metallurgy field because of excellent corrosion properties, ease of fabrication and high specific strength with best combination of toughness and formability. TIG welding technique is one of the precise and fastest processes used in aerospace, ship and marine industries. TIG welding process is used to perform experiment and analyze the recorded data in the form of tables and figures.
