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.

Internet's Effect on Critical Thinking and Learning
1. The Internet’s Effect on Critical
Thinking and Learning
Presented By:
Jodi Ripley, Karan Muns, Shaun Hensley
2. What is Critical Thinking?
• The intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing,
applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or
generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a
guide to belief and action (University of Tennessee, Chattanooga)
• In the layman’s terms, critical thinking is the ability of a person to problem solve,
gather information from context clues, decipher which information is pertinent, and
using logic to summon a logical conclusion
3. Eight Components of Critical Thinking
1. Asking Questions
2. Determining the Problem
3. Examining Evidence
4. Analyzing Assumptions and
Biases
5. Avoiding Emotional Reasoning
6. Avoiding Over Simplification
7. Considering Other Interpretations
8. Tolerating Ambiguity
(University of Tennessee, Chattanooga)
4. Why is Critical Thinking So Important to Children
• Problem Solving
• Understanding Information
• Making Informed Decisions
5. Problem Solving
• Critical thinking in children is an important aspect for daily living that needs to be
formed and nurtured early on to provide the individual with a better base to draw
upon when making choices. Research has found that more often a student is
exposed to critical thinking; the greater the student will transfer critical thinking to
other areas of their life (Importance of Critical Thinking, 2005). Critical thinking
skills give students the ability to not only understand what they have read or been
shown but they will also have the ability to build upon their current knowledge base
(Importance of Critical Thinking, 2005).This empowers students to be independent,
innovative, creative and also helps them succeed in school and in daily life
(Importance of Critical Thinking, 2005).
6. Understanding and Interpreting Information
• Using critical thinking can help to improve decision making and judgement
in general, critical thinking can also be thought of as reasoned thinking with
a purpose. Some of the core critical thinking processes should include;
• An understanding that your opinions could be incorrect
• Accepting statements as factual even when they conflict with your views
• The temporary adoption of a position that you disagree with and then reason from that
point
7. Making Informed Decisions
• One difficulty with teaching critical thinking is presenting it in such a way that the
student can transfer what they have learned from one situation to a new or different
situation (Critical Thinking in Decision Making retrieved from
http://www.globalcognition.org/critical-thinking-in-decision-making/). When an
individual comes across decisions that need to be made, they need to pay attention
to the stories that they are telling themselves during the process. Writing a strategy
down can also be a useful way of coming to a fully developed and thought out
conclusion (Critical Thinking in Decision Making retrieved from
http://www.globalcognition.org/critical-thinking-in-decision-making/).
8. How Does the Internet Affect Critical Thinking
Over Time
• Whose critical thinking is most affected by the Internet
• How is Critical Thinking affected by the Internet
• How can the internet improve critical thinking
9. Who Are the Most Affected
• Children raised on “edutainment”
• Uneducated or Lazy Adults
10. How is Critical Thinking Affected
• Critical thinking is hindered because the internet presents information that
may not be accurate
• People take information at face value instead of fact checking it themselves
11. How Can the Internet Aide in Critical Thinking
Development
• The internet can provide supplemental information that can be used to draw
original conclusions
12. Conclusion
• The internet can be used to think critically or not to think at all
• The eight components of critical thinking are either enhanced or destroyed
by using the internet to gather information
• Children and adults’ critical thinking process is affected by the internet
