dataset analysis. The t-test was used for comparing pre and post intervention scores, and percentage
analysis was conducted for understanding attitude changes. The study found that the environmental
education intervention positively influenced secondary school students' environmental attitude. After the
intervention, there was an overall increase in environmental attitude scores, indicating voluntary
participation in environmental activities, sharing of environmental knowledge, and preference for
environmentally-friendly products.
Mobile phones are a dominant form of information and communication technology, with India ranking second in the
global telecommunication market. Most individuals start using mobile phones from the age of 12 and technology
becomes an integral part of their lives. This research studied the impact of mobile phone use on the academic
performance of secondary school students in the Namsai district of Arunachal Pradesh. The study adopted a
descriptive survey research method with a sample size of 40 students from 4 selected schools, each contributing 5
boys and 5 girls by using stratified random sampling technique. A self-constructed scale with four points, referred to
as a Likert-type scale, entitled "Mobile Phone and Students’ Academic Performance of Secondary School
questionnaire, was employed in order to evaluate the utilization of mobile phones as well as the students’ academic
performance of secondary schools. The study's results showed significant impacts of mobile phone use on the
academic performance of students during the COVID-19 pandemic. It pointed out the negative effects of their usage,
such as distractions in academic work, health issues, and time loss. However, the study establishes that appropriate
usage of cellular device can provide benefits in academic performance.
Technology has greatly influenced the educational sector, not only supplemented in-class processes, but also transformed conventional teaching methods. In this context, the Flipgrid application has emerged as a powerful instrument which amplifies students' participation in learning. Particularly in the realm of mobile learning, Flipgrid has gained significant prominence in educational settings. Flipgrid, a versatile and innovative video discussion platform, has been gaining momentum in the realm of education. It delves into the pedagogical foundations of Flipgrid and provides insights into practical applications, demonstrating how it fosters active engagement, fluency, and effective feedback. By combining the benefits of technology and speaking practice, educators can empower students to become confident and proficient communicators in the digital age. Flipgrid is revolutionizing the way we approach oral communication, providing a platform that encourages students to voice their opinions, collaborate with peers, and enhance their speaking abilities. This article explores the role of Flipgrid in enhancing speaking skills among students. Introduction In an era defined by digital transformation, educators are constantly seeking ways to integrate technology into their teaching methods, catering to the needs and expectations of the modern learner. One such technological innovation that has garnered attention is Flipgrid.
The term "collaborative learning" (CL) refers to a broad range of educational strategies including the combined intellectual efforts of teachers and pupils. Students are typically required to work in groups of two or more, looking together for understanding, answers, or meanings or producing a product. People will be able to collaborate with someone far away just as readily as they would with someone in the same room thanks to the usage of ICT in CL. E-collaboration tool enable users to contribute a variety of abilities to group projects that remove time, distance, and resource limitations. Face-to-face engagement is still important, but ICT can enhance it by enabling communication at any time and from any location. ICT functions for group work coordination, tools for tracking progress and providing feedback, libraries of solutions and best practises, as well as meta data, are all available as collaborative technologies. In order to facilitate collaborative learning in all areas of education, the following technological tools can be used: wiki, online forums, chat, video conferencing, email, blogging, learning management systems, virtual classrooms, Sticky notes, etc.
The term ÄJerk Technology (JT) is widely used to get the attention of the learners and provides the
active, lively, interactive classroom atmosphere. Jerk Technology breaks out the boredom way of
traditional teaching by implementing the active learners. Each learner is unique and the way of
learning is divergent because of an Individual difference (Shobana.S, 2014). In teaching – learning
process, attention plays a vital role which the source for transferring the knowledge. The overall
outcomes of the study show that the effect of Jerk can use easily without any strain for teaching
grammar.The main purpose of the study is to find out the ÄEffect of Jerk Technology in Teaching of
Grammar among Higher Secondary School StudentsÇ. The researchers adopted a single group pre
and post - test design. The sample for the present study is of 32 pupils selected from the Government
Model Higher Secondary School, Allinagaram, Theni District. The pre – test is conducted using the
traditional fact to face instruction, but the post test is conducted using effect of Jerk Technology (JT).
The statistical procedures were employed descriptive analysis, mean S.D and t – test. The findings of
the study reveals that implementation of Jerk Technology is very effective for teaching Grammar.
Hence, the Jerk Technology (JT) is potentially the most powerful tool for extending platform in
Educational process.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
