Notes on Radio in Eductive Process
The document discusses the role of radio in education. It provides details on how radio has been used as an educational tool since the 1930s by bringing educational content into classrooms through descriptions, narrations and dramatizations. Radio is described as a cheap medium that provides wide coverage, making it accessible for schools even in remote areas. The document outlines the stages of effectively utilizing educational radio programs, including preparing students, listening activities, post-listening discussions, and follow-up assignments. However, it is noted that radio is limited by only engaging the sense of hearing and lacking visual elements. Major educational radio projects in India are also summarized.
Radio in Education
Radio has played a vital role in education since the 1930s. It can extend the classroom by bringing worldwide experiences to students through narration and sounds. Radio benefits education by widening students' knowledge, transporting listeners through time and place, informing students of current events, developing values and imagination, and aiding visually impaired and slow learners. While it lacks interactivity and visuals, radio remains an effective educational tool due to its wide reach, low cost, and ability to supplement classroom learning. Major educational radio projects in India include school broadcasts, adult education programs, language learning initiatives, university broadcasts, IGNOU collaborations, and Gyan Vani educational content contributions.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Blacksmith
- 1. THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
- 2. And children coming home from school Look in at the open door; They love to see the flaming forge, And hear the bellows roar, And catch the burning sparks that fly Like chaff from a threshing-floor.
- 3. He goes on Sunday to the church, And sits among his boys; He hears the parson pray and preach, He hears his daughter’s voice, Singing in the village choir, And it makes his heart rejoice.
- 4. It sounds to him like her mother’s voice, Singing is Paradise! He needs must think of her once more; How in the grave she lies; And with his hard, rough hand he wipes A tear out of his eyes.
- 5. Toiling, rejoicing, sorrowing, Onward through life he goes; Each morning sees some task begin, Each evening sees it close Something attempted, something done, Has earned a night’s repose.
- 6. Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend, For the lesson thou hast taught! Thus at the flaming forge of life Our fortunes must be wrought; Thus on its sounding anvil shaped Each burning deed and thought.
- 7. Forge - a furnace where metals are heated and wrought eg : The blacksmith’s forge was once a feature of all villages.
- 8. Bellows - an equipment that blows a strong current of air to make fire burn more fiercely. Eg : The blacksmith worked with the bellows to make the piece of iron hot.
- 9. Chaff - hunk of rain separated during threshing. Eg : The first step is to separate the chaff from the grain.
- 10. Thresh - to separate grains of corn, rice, etc. from the rest of the plant using a machine or by hitting it with a tool.
- 11. Preach - to give a religious talk in a public place, especially in a church during a service. Eg : She preached to the gathering about forgiveness.
- 12. Toil - work extremely hard eg : We toiled away.
