Budget Allocation/ Human Capital Formation:
If you really want to know the priorities of a government, instead of going to their manifesto, check their budget allocation. One major reason our literacy rates have remained low or extremely stagnant is that there is very little allocation in the Budget.
Too Many Stakeholders:
The system has too many stakeholders – teachers, students, administrators and even the Government. While the main focus in on the ones who education is being dispensed to, the children, even the imparters, that is the teachers, aren’t happy with a lot of instability in regulations, unwarranted discipline imposed on them. And, in that bid to please all the stakeholders, and failing at it, the essence of education and literacy is lost. It’s the age-old saying of “Too many cooks spoil the broth”.
The System Is Outdated:
We need better policies, more interactive classroom approach, more student-friendly learning methodology, and better study models which would focus on holistic and comprehensive learning, instead of the flawed and narrow ‘let’s cram and vomit in exam’ models.
How Can It Get Better?:
Education Start-Ups: The statistics clearly show how important it is for our literacy rates to get better. Many online education start-ups are working for the literacy rates to soar. They focus on building interest in the formative years and, hence, target the younger age groups.
Follow the Delhi Model: The Delhi government’s model on budget allocation for education is a solid example of prioritising right. Their programme ‘Mission Buniyaad’ was aimed to beat the poor literacy rate. Today, students are at a level playing field thanks to their exemplary programmes which have also got world recognition. Today, the Delhi Chief Minister’s son and a tailor’s son are going to be studying together at IIT. It’s not about the class divide, but providing equal access to resources- that’s the main ‘end’ a government must seek to achieve through the ‘means’ of these policies.
This presentation aims to elaborate the current prevailing education system and its emergence in India.

The Indian school education system is one of the largest and most complex in the world. The complexity of the system stems from India’s need to maintain standard and uniformity while giving scope for its diverse culture and heritage to grow and flourish across the length and breadth of the country. After independence, India has worked hard to provide access to almost all its young people, but it has only just begun to focus on aspects of quality and seek to improve learning outcomes.
Present Education System :
The present system of education was introduced and founded by the British in the 20th century, by the recommendations of Macaulay.
It has a western style and content.
The British Govt. did not recognize the traditional structures and so they have declined.
It is said that even Gandhi described the traditional educational system as a beautiful tree which was destroyed during the British rule.
EDUCATION FOR ALL:
Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) is Government of India's flagship programme for achievement of Universalization of Elementary Education (UEE) in a time bound manner, as mandated by 86th amendment to the Constitution of India making free and compulsory Education as a Fundamental Right.
Right to education:
The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act or Right to Education Act (RTE), is an Act of the Parliament of India enacted on 4 August 2009, which describes the modalities of the importance of free and compulsory education for children between 6 and 14 in India under Article 21a of the Indian Constitution. India became one of 135 countries to make education a fundamental right of every child when the Act came into force on 1 April 2010.

Abstract: Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (SSA) was launched in April 2002 with allowed objective of providing quality basic education to all children in 6-14 yrs of age throughout the country. It put in place community based planning with wider and active participation of stakeholders aiming at bringing social and gender gaps, if any in providing basic education. Muslims is per census 2001 constitution 13-43 percent of total population in the country as a variety of studies and reports indicate a rather low level of socio economic indicators for Muslim community and Urdu SSA suitable strategies were formulated to ensure the enrolment, attendance, retention and successful implementation a basic education by all Muslim children by 2010 including Muslim girls. Report of DISE 2011-12 as given in “Flash Statics “ indicated that in 2011-12 the total enrolment of Muslim children was 13.61 percent S.C The marginally short (-0.12 %) of their total section to the total population, while girls enrolment was 49.17% almost equivalent to their share in total population. However the retention rate of 75.94 indicate that nearby 24% children either drop out or are repeaters and in order to put their back to school special reservation are required as suggested in this article in order to achieve universities of basic education. It is well known that education is critical for economic and social development. It is essential for creating human capabilities and for opening water opportunities and that is why education is now considered as a basic human right and globally are sort of war has been declared on illiteracy. Illiteracy by 2015 is one of the goals of millennium including India development goals and the member countries are committed to it. It may be mentioned that providing basic education for all would ensure social justice and equality in society and would create conducive conidian for of marginalized and unprivileged seeking the society.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Andreas Schleicher presents at the OECD webinar ‘Digital devices in schools: detrimental distraction or secret to success?’ on 27 May 2024. The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

5. UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific
and Cultural Organization)
According to them in 2004
i. In North america the level of illiteracy rate was
6.9% or 42 million people.
ii. In EUROPE the level of illiteracy rate was
2.2%or 13 million people.
iii. In ASIA the level of illiteracy rate was 2% or
11.81 million people.
10. Over the past few years, the state has seen a marked increase in the literacy level of
the state, particularly in female literacy. In 1991, Rajasthan's literacy rate was 38.55%
(54.99% being male literates, and 20.44% being female literates). In 2001, this
increased to 60.41% (75.70% being male literates and 43.85% being female
literates). This was the highest leap in the percentage of literacy recorded in India
(the rise in female literacy being 23%) and was also a remarkable achievement in the
history of the state.
Rajasthan is the largest state of the country The education in rajasthan,
particularly of the girls, remained a neglected. Though girls are considered the
squandered gift and precious human beings with enormous potential, still
traditionally, they are the last to have their basic needs met and the first to be
denied to the basic rights. Education of girls was never given its due importance,
but the efforts of the last few decades have fetched an unbelievable result.
11. Rajasthan has a big population which is still illiterate. People in the most of the rural areas
are illiterate and don’t even have knowledge on literacy. It is very much know that education
is not much known to people in the villages and government is taking measures to create
awareness on literacy..
Looking up for good financial support and proper educational aids can lessen the illiteracy in
Indian rural areas. There are problems which are persisting in most of the government
educational institutes causing bad educational programs. These schools have no proper
science laboratories or any equipment used in the laboratories. Biology, physics and
chemistry are just theoretical subjects to be mugged up. due to mismanagement, lack of
financial aids and proper teaching aids india is facing problems in its literacy rates.
stiill in this 21st century there are children in the rural areas of rajasthan who don’t
even have an institution to educate themselves. With poor administration and poor
foundation there are many villages who have school buildings but no teachers to educate
children. And places where there are teachers available have no children to study in. poor
accountability has created the problem of literacy among many village children in India.
Indian government has put a ban on child labour to encourage child literacy programs but
still a lot is requires..

13. Literacy efforts
The right to education is a fundamental right,[ and UNESCO aims at education for all by
2015.[] India, along with the Arab states and sub-Saharan Africa, has a literacy level
below the threshold level of 75%, but efforts are on to achieve that level. The campaign
to achieve at least the threshold literacy level represents the largest ever civil and
military mobilization in the country.[ International Literacy Day is celebrated each year
on 8 September with the aim to highlight the importance of literacy to individuals,
communities and societies.
Government schemes
National Literacy Mission
The National Literacy Mission, launched in 1988, aimed at attaining a literacy rate of 75
per cent by 2007. It imparts functional literacy to non-literates in the age group of 15–
35 years. The Total Literacy Campaign is the principal strategy of the NLM for
eradication of illiteracy. The Continuing Education Scheme provides a learning
continuum to the efforts of the Total Literacy and Post literacy programmes.[
Sarva Siksha Abhiyan
The Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (Hindi for Total Literacy Campaign) was launched in 2001 to
ensure that all children in the 6–14 year age-group attend school and complete eight
years of schooling by 2010. An important component of the scheme is the Education
Guarantee Scheme and Alternative and Innovative Education, meant primarily for
children in areas with no formal school within a one kilometre radius. The centrally
sponsored District Primary Education Programme, launched in 1994, had opened more
than 160,000 new schools by 2005, including almost 84,000 alternative schools.[
14. Non-governmental efforts
The bulk of Indian illiterates live in the country's rural areas, where social and
economic barriers play an important role in keeping the lowest strata of society
illiterate. Government programmes alone, however well intentioned, may not be
able to dismantle barriers built over centuries. Major social reformation efforts are
sometimes required to bring about a change in the rural scenario. Several non-
governmental organizations such as ITC, Rotary Club, Lions Club have worked to
improve the literacy rate in India.
[Mamidipudi Venkatarangaiya Foundation
Shantha Sinha won a Magsaysay Award in 2003 in recognition of "her guiding the
people of Andhra Pradesh to end the scourge of child labour and send all of their
children to school." As head of an extension program at the University of
Hyderabad in 1987, she organized a three-month-long camp to prepare children
rescued from bonded labour to attend school. Later, in 1991, she guided her
family’s Mamidipudi Venkatarangaiya Foundation to take up this idea as part of its
overriding mission in Andhra Pradesh. Her original transition camps grew into
full-fledged residential "bridge schools." The foundation's aim is to create a social
climate hostile to child labour, child marriage and other practices that deny
children the right to a normal childhood. Today the MV Foundation’s bridge
schools and programs extend to 4,300 villages.[
15. Reasons for Low Literacy Rate
The absence of adequate school infrastructure like improper facilities and
inefficient teaching staff is one of the main factors affecting literacy in India. There
is a shortage of 6lakh classrooms to accommodate all the students in 2006-
2007.[ In addition, there is no proper sanitation in most schools. The study of 188
government-run primary schools in central and northern India revealed that 59%
of the schools had no drinking water facility and 89% no toilets A Public Report
On Basic Education (PROBE) team did surveys and reported that India had very
poor infrastructure in 1999 and a 25% rate of teachers being absent from school
on any particular day in 2005. In 600,000 villages and multiplying urban slum
habitats, ‘free and compulsory education’ is the basic literacy instruction
dispensed by barely qualified ‘para teachers’.] The average Pupil Teacher Ratio for
All India is 1:42, implying teacher shortage Such inadequacies resulted in a non-
standardized school system where literacy rates may differ. Furthermore, the
expenditure allocated to education was never above 4.3% of the GDP from 1951-
2002 despite the target of 6% by the Kothari Commission. This further
complicates the literacy problem in India.
16. 58 of 100 adult in Canada aged 16 / 65 have the basic
reading skills they need for most every day tasks
9 million of adult are illiterate if we go on 65 year older they
percentage w'll go to 12 million Canadians
Police, court and other government dept..
17. International Adult Literacy and Skills Survey in Based on
the results of that survey, some broad statements about
who has low literacy skills in Canada
a) 2.6 million are immigrants
b) 5.8 million employed and over 800,000 are unemployed
c) 2.4 million are not actively in the workforce
d) 3.1 million have less than high school education
e) 3.3 million finished high school
f) 2.6 million have post- secondary education
People who have low literacy are found throughout
Canadian society
18. Men are more likely to have low literacy skills than women.
Many people don’t read regularly, they get their news form
television and radio, they don’t read for enjoyment either and
they get their entertainment from the internet, TV, Movies and
concerts they lose their reading skills.
Many senior citizens have only elementary school education,
and their reading skills were never up to today’s standard.
Others have stopped reading their skills decline.
Language problem, English - French
Low literacy in Canada is a personal, family, community, and
societal problem. And low literacy is a law enforcement
problem
19. Pakistan cannot survive unless the problems
of illiteracy and overpopulation are solved.
Illiteracy can be overcome only by making
education compulsory for everyone, and
preferably making it mandatory for all
children to be taught in English, as is the
practice in India
20. The article 25-A of constitution of Pakistan
obligates the state to provide free and
compulsory quality education to children of the
age group 5 to 16 year.
The state shall provide free and compulsory
education to all children of the age of five to
sixteen year in such a manner as may be
determined by law
