LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
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

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.

Editor's Notes
Good Morning
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to provide you with an overview of the Cisco Networking Academy.
Slide objective:
Program was born from a need
Helps people understand the development of the program
Problem: Schools lacked financial and human resources to manage networks
Solution: Cisco developed curriculum to train teachers, staff, and students to to design, configure and maintain and maintain IT infrastructure in their schools
A Cisco initiative helped schools design practical, cost-effective networks, but they lacked the financial and human resources to maintain them. Cisco worked with instructional designers and educators to develop a curriculum to teach educators and students how to design, build and maintain computer networks.
The Academy program launched in October 1997 with 64 Academies in the United States.
Students completed the Academy curriculum with practical skills and real experience. The program rapidly expanded to become an IT career development program.
Academies quickly spread to schools, colleges and universities, and other not-for-profit educational institutions around the world.
Our students need skills to be successful & compete in the 21st century… (prediction) 8 jobs in their careers…
CCNA Discovery and CCNA Exploration integrate real-world skills into the technical curricula to create a learning experience for success in future educational, entrepreneurial, and occupational endeavors.
Students not only learn the fundamentals of designing, building, and operating networks, they also learn about problem solving, critical thinking, collaboration, teamwork, negotiation, and entrepreneurship - skills they can apply in their future education and in the 21st century global workplace.
The curricula facilitate the learner at the center while catering for differing learning styles ….authentic mix of theory, interactive flash-based activities, real hands-on labs (every lab is a mini project-based assignment). Makes it possible for understanding to occur
Games: binary game; alien space ship
Interactive media with immediate feedback
PT allows unlimited access to virtual devices
Instructor enabled to take on role of facilitator….
We created this assessment framework to ensure a common understanding of our terminology and assessment purpose; and provide a pedagogical view of the assessment suite
The framework divides assessment into two categories, student initiated and instructor initiated. Student initiated assessment is an assessment that a student can take, receives feedback on, and typically is not scored by the instructor.
The framework highlights the types of assessments for students & instructors, with knowledge flow from formative assessments (assessments that provide student practice and support mastering critical concepts) to summative assessments that provide an accurate reflection of students’ content knowledge.
Formative assessments are designed to give detailed feedback about the particular strengths and weaknesses of a student while the student is learning. Summative assessments are designed to summarize the knowledge or skill sets of a student. Summative assessments usually cover a broader range of information than formative assessments and provide less detailed feedback.
There are several factors to consider in determining which CCNA curriculum best suits your needs.
Options to consider:
Many academies offer both the CCNA Discovery and CCNA Exploration curricula to provide the best fit for different types of students with different goals. For example, a postsecondary institution may offer either CCNA Discovery or CCNA Exploration for students in IT or engineering degree programs, and CCNA Discovery for students in other degree programs or broader courses of study.
If an academy wants to offer both curricula for different types of students but cannot due to resource restrictions, we suggest a hybrid offering of the first two courses from the CCNA Discovery curricula, followed by courses 2-4 from the CCNA Exploration curricula.
CCNA Discovery is a good choice to provide technical and information literacy to every student, regardless of their education level, course of study or educational or career goals, ensuring that all students are viable candidates in the global workplace.

The global, generally available (GA) release of CCNA Security is scheduled for July 2009
CCNP (4 courses) —the CCNP curriculum focuses on the advanced routing, secure wide area access, multilayer switching, and networking management skills required to implement and maintain converged enterprise networks.
Cisco Packet Tracer — Provides a realistic simulation and visualization learning environment that supplements classroom equipment. Cisco Packet Tracer is a foundational teaching tool for CCNA Discovery, CCNA Exploration, and Packet Tracer activities are embedded in the course content. Both curricula include embedded e-doing, which applies the principle that people learn best by interacting with computer-based activities. Interactive learning promotes the exploration of networking concepts and experimentation with tools such as Packet Tracer and Flash-based activities to help students develop a greater understanding of networking technologies. Packet Tracer activities are also available for CCNA Security.
All of our curricula help prepare students for industry recognized certifications:
IT Essentials: PC Hardware and Software — CompTIA A+ certification
CCNA Discovery (first 2 courses) — CCENT certification
CCNA Discovery (4 courses) — CCNA certification
CCNA Exploration (4 courses) — CCNA certification
CCNA Security - CCNA Security certification
CCNP (4 courses) — CCNP certification
Right Experts, Right Place, Right Time
Cisco has conducted a comprehensive global networking talent study to assess how many networking professional will be needed by 2012.
Based on the collected data, we estimate that a gap of nearly 3 million skilled networking professionals will exist globally in 2012.
As you can see from the map no region is spared from the need to grow technical talent.
The breadth of the talent gap is therefore spread across the entire globe.
The world’s networks continue to grow in technology complexity yet Customers’ and partners’ skills are short of desired state
Knowledge of networking fundamentals is no longer sufficient. Now, network professionals must understand networking systems with integrated security, wireless, and voice capabilities
In mature markets –The new game is designing networking systems with integrated security/wireless/voice capabilities.
In emerging markets -- core is critical but networks are quickly catching up and sometimes leapfrogging the US because there is no legacy to deal with (Korea/Singapore)
New careers in IT are being established that are more based on systems and architectures
Cisco needs to be leading the charge to provide direction and proper learning paths/resources to enable customers and partners to address these challenges
Cisco Networking Academy courses touch upon all of these topics and focus on preparing students for entry and associate level networking positions.
NOTE: This is an animated slide that builds after each display. Please step through this slide slowly and discuss each addition after the visual effect displays!
Initial Display:
You may be wondering how these two curricula with different features and benefits can both lead to the same certification?
Display 2:
The CCNA Discovery and CCNA Exploration curricula both cover the core skills required to prepare for CCNA certification, with more than 200 hours of class material.
In addition, both CCNA curricula offer a rich environment filled with extensive interactivity and networking skills and knowledge that extend beyond the minimum requirements for the CCNA certification.
Display 3:
CCNA Discovery provides foundational networking knowledge and experience, as well as career exploration and soft-skills development. This curriculum presents basic networking education to equip students with knowledge and skills that can be applied toward entry-level careers in IT and networking
Display 4:
CCNA Exploration presents a comprehensive overview of networking from fundamentals to advanced applications and services. This curriculum prepares students for a range of networking professions, provides students with the skills needed to succeed in networking-related degree programs, and allows for easier integration with related programs of study
Display 5:
While the CCNA curricula help prepare students for entry-level jobs, an individual’s education, experience and industry certifications are also key ingredients in obtaining career opportunities.
Both of the new CCNA curricula prepare students for entry-level jobs, certification and professional degrees using different approaches.
CCNA Discovery and CCNA Exploration use a segmented approach to instruction for students with different goals, skills, interests and educational backgrounds.
All courses are designed to be delivered in a learning environment that combines face-to-face instruction with independent learning. This promotes student-centered, interactive learning and optimizes the learning environment for different types of learners – students who learn best with direct classroom support and students who are more self-directed.
Both curricula teach the same applied skills but present the information in different ways to appeal to different student segments, in order to build on their strengths and help all students succeed.
There are three pathways to entry-level careers and CCNA certification
Students learn the basics of routing, switching, and advanced technologies to help them prepare for Cisco CCENT and CCNA certifications
CCENT and CCNA certifications are highly valued in the global networking industry and provide validation of the skills and knowledge required for entry-level networking careers.
The first two courses of CCNA Discovery help students prepare for the CCENT certification exam.
The entire four course series of CCNA Discovery or CCNA Exploration helps students prepare for the CCNA certification exam.
Students can also follow a hybrid path consisting of the first two courses from the CCNA Discovery curricula, followed by courses 2-4 from the CCNA Exploration curricula.
Course credits are typically provided by institutions based on the programs students have taken to apply to other courses. Here we are offering suggested articulation options for students who have completed the CCNA courses.
