CHEM Study and CBA : Salient features, merits and demeritsADITYA ARYA
CHEM study.
Chem study originated in 1960 at United States J.A Campbell was the project Director.
Chem Study employs inductive approach in which practical work precedes theory. The
main objectives of the course are
1) To diminish the separation between Scientist and teachers in the understanding of
Science.
2) To stimulate and prepare those high school students who planned to continue the
study of Chemistry in College in preparation for a professional career.
The materials produced under this project consists of a text, laboratory manual ,
teachers guide, two self instruction programmes two series of achievement tests,
26 basic films and 27 teacher training films.
Chemical Bond Approach (CBA)
CBA course was originated in 1959. Lawrence Strong was the founder of this
project. In CBA theory precedes practical work, ie, it is deductive in approach.
Important texts are Chemical system and investigating Chemical system. The concept of
bonding forms the central theme in C.B.A. The whole course is planned in such a
manner that experiments suggest the ideas to be tested and ideas to be tested suggest the
experiments to be setup.

The science which deals with the study of living objects is called Biology. Thus the subject involves the studies of all kinds of micro-organisms, plants and animals. Biology is related to mankind ever since the origin of man, therefore this branch of science stands first in order of studies as compared to other branches of science. Ever since the origin of life man is eager to know about various phenomenon of life processes such as health and disease, birth, growth and death. However, man depends on plants and animals for food, shelter and clothing which are immediate needs of life, come from Biology. Perhaps it was the elementary need of man to know about the living beings, so that maximum benefits can be drawn out of them. Though biology involves study of life, but now a days it is mostly centralised with the study of agriculture, animal husbandry, health and microbiology and related branches. Today study of any branch of science is not possible in isolation as it also involves principles of physics, chemistry and various other branches.
A teacher should have love for his profession. He should be seriously and sincerely committed to his duties and work. As such be must be on the path of excellence both for his own personal achievements and that of his pupils.

Barbour, M. K. (2011, May). Examining research into primary and secondary e-learning. An invited presentation to Te Aho o Te Kura Pounamu – The Correspondence School, Wellington, New Zealand.
This talk will introduce two different approaches to address the complex relationship between learning outcomes, assessment and the feedback that facilitates both student performance and satisfaction.
The first of these is a flipped lecture approaching a final year plant biology module. The initial (authentic) context was set out in a national strategy (1). Students were required to indicate which areas they deemed the most important. Responses were submitted online and class data was ranked to form the basis of the subsequent teaching sessions. For each student-determined sub-topic, session were held with varied delivery including group work, journal clubs, seminars and clicker quizzes. Students worked in groups, often in the virtual environment, to prepare for each flipped session. In parallel, students drafted, refined, and approved an exam question, which formed part of the final module examination. Student feedback was generally good but some students preferred the conventional approach. From this experience it is clear that facilitation of flipped teaching requires transparency, preparation and the need to be reactive.
The second approach used formative assessment in a digital environment to deliver feedforward in a first year module. A weekly series of short answer questions similar to the exam were provided. Students answered the question and then ranked those of their peers using the online NoMoreMarking tool. The top answer was annotated and returned to them. This provided revision, reflection, evaluation and feedback in an efficient way for both staff and students.

Tech-Driven Education Reform: A Model for Simultaneously Improving Student Re...ExamSoft
A major overhaul of our higher education system is desperately needed to increase interest and competence in STEM disciplines. Currently only 40% of entering college students that declare STEM majors complete degrees in STEM disciplines. The efflux of students from STEM majors has been attributed in part to the teaching style that has been used in most lower-level science courses, which is a traditional slideshow and lecture format. This style of teaching has persisted even in the presence of convincing discipline-based education research data that other strategies can increase student attainment of learning outcomes. Engaged, learner-focused activities transparently linked to student learning outcomes have been especially effective for improving student learning in large enrollment classes; however, implementation can be difficult because of the significant time needed to conduct such activities while still covering all the required material and because of the difficulty in demonstrating student attainment of learning outcomes.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
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.
2. Introduction
• In today’s climate of school accountability, it is of
paramount importance for educators to search for
ways to improve student achievement.
• Jaffna Hindu College is a leading National school
in the Jaffna district.
• There are 2315 students in this school. Students
are selected to this school on merit. Most of the
students have passed the Grade-5 examination.
3. Students’ G.C.E (O/L) achievement is also
satisfactory. In last two years this school obtained
100% pass in G.C.E (O/L).
But the G.C.E (A/L) performance is degreasing in
recent years. 65 students did not passed any one of
the subjects in last year. So, due to the above
reason this project has become predominant.
The following graph illustrates the “Percentage of
failures in all three subjects in G.C.E(A/L) in Bio-

20. Conclusions
• Post test marks of the students are higher than
the pre-test marks.
• Regular attendance to the school is also
increase the students’ academic achievement.
(Pearson’s product movement correlation
between average attendance and pre-test
marks is 0.6198462)
• The incorporation of IT into the biology
classroom can be accomplished by approaching
a variety avenues. The complexity of the
biology topics introduced can be overcome by
connecting the biological principles to the
students’ “real-world” experiences.
21. Conclusions(cont..)
• Part of the solution to improve biology education is to help
ensure that students are taught by teachers with expertise
in their subject areas.
• Parents often with their child’s teachers not to disturb but
to receive feedback as how your child is doing in science
courses and to uplift the child’s performance.
• Parent – teacher corporation help to improve the students’
achievement.
22. Recommendations for future research
The researcher recommended that this study be;
o Replicated to include other factors
o Replicated for other subjects and other
G.C.E(A/L) streams to generate longitudinal
data.
o Expanded to a larger population
