Development on the Internet has led to the formation of Information Technology (IT) and IT has created various solutions for different sectors one among those is education. The educational sector has opened opportunities for entrepreneurship. Online learning has become a new trend in the constantly changing world and IT solutions have provided ways for it. Many such promising companies and startups have started coming up and a sector known as EdTech (a combination of education and technology which was made possible with the help of IT solutions) started growing up with billions invested in it around the globe. It is thus one of the fastest-growing sectors as it aims to make education feasible and accessible from any corner of the world. Vocational education as such is gaining more attendance in today’s world as there is a high demand for skilled and specialized people. Governments around the world are hugely investing in the skill development of their citizens. The purpose of this paper is to review the newly formed sector known as EdTech and analyze the role of Information Technology (IT) in creating opportunities for entrepreneurship. Further going on how in return entrepreneurship is transforming education (Sambamurthy, Bharadwaj, & Grover, 2003). A sample of 335 respondents has been surveyed to know the role and significance of information technology in creating Entrepreneurial opportunities in vocational education. Survey method and factor analysis are used to get the results. The study concludes that there are so many significant roles of information technology in creating Entrepreneurial opportunities in vocational education.

Inclusive education: helping teachers to choose ICT resources and to use them...eLearning Papers
Authors: Vincenza Benigno, Stefania Bocconi, Michela Ott.
This paper looks at the issue of school inclusion by referring to the concept of Universal Access to Education. It focuses on the strong potential Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) provide to avoid any kind of discrimination among students. The paper also argues that teachers play a fundamental role in capitalising the opportunities offered by new technologies to support the full inclusion of all students in mainstream education systems.
An Assessment of the Availability of ICT Infrastructure for Curriculum Instru...iosrjce
The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into the curriculum has
become a necessity worldwide. The education system does not only pursue the integration of ICT into the
curriculum because of its popularity in the market system, but because of the role it is perceived to play in the
changing curriculum (encourages active construction of knowledge). This paper undertakes an assessment of
the availability of ICT infrastructure for curriculum instruction based on a study of public secondary schools in
Mumias sub-County in Kakamega County, Kenya. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The target
population comprised head teachers, teachers and students in public secondary schools in Mumias sub-County.
Schools were selected using stratified random sampling technique while students’ sample size was determined
using Kathuri and Pals formula. Head teachers and heads of computer departments were purposively selected.
Questionnaire, structured interview schedule and content analysis were the main instruments of data collection
for the study. Two sets of questionnaire were prepared, one for the students and the other for the teachers. The
structured interview schedule was used to solicit information from the head teachers. Both qualitative and
quantitative data were collected for the study. Qualitative data was analyzed descriptively. Analyzed data was
presented in form of cumulative frequency tables, percentages and graphs. The study established that the main
ICT facilities in place in most schools in Mumias sub-County were radio for interactive radio instruction and
computers. The radios available in the studied secondary schools were however inadequate. A majority of the
examined secondary schools had an average computer to learner ratio of 30:1. The study recommended that the
Ministry of Education should hasten the development of ICT policy to ensure that teachers practice what is in
line with the ministry’s expectations, schools should involve their governing bodies to facilitate provision of ICT
infrastructure and that concerned departments within the Ministry of Education should conduct regular and
differentiated ICT teacher trainings.

Latent fingerprints lifted from crime scenes often contain overlapping prints, which are
difficult to separate and match by state-of-the-art fingerprint matchers. The methods that have been
proposed to separate overlapping fingerprints and successful matching previously suffer from limited
accuracy of the estimated orientation field. In this paper, the robustness of overlapping fingerprints
separation is increased, particularly for low quality images. This algorithm reconstructs the
orientation fields of component prints by modeling fingerprint orientation fields. To facilitate this,
orientation cues of component fingerprints are utilized, which are manually marked by fingerprint
examiners. The effectiveness of this model has been evaluated.

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
Knowledge and technology is changing day by day. As a teacher
both the factors has to be handled in the same manner. Information and
communication technology (ICT) can provide more flexible and effective
ways for professional development for teachers, improve pre-and in-
service teacher training and connect teachers to the global teacher
community.Many of the major institutions of our society have changed
and the way we live our daily lives have been impacted. However, the
impact on education may just beginning to be felt as teachers integrate
this new technology into their teaching.Our commerce teachers cannot
keep away from these changes. Commerce and technology are closely
related with each other. Information and Communication Technology‟s
innovations are widening the scope of Commerce in several ways.The
development of technology helps the learning tools at the command of
the children are getting more effective and sophisticated.In the era of
dynamic changes in the field of Commerce, Trade and Industry,
Information Technology has a pivotal role to play in theeducation of that
discipline. The role of Information Technology in commerce
educationgoes far beyond the direct use of instructional devices.
Information Technology canprovide coverage of a growing knowledge base
associated with the information explosion inall areas including
Commerce.
3. Finding the role of ICT in Commerce Discipline
United Nations Development Programme defines ICT as „ICTs are
basically information-handling tools- a varied set of goods, applications and
services that are used to produce, store, process, distribute and exchange
information. They include the „old‟ ICTs of radio, television and telephone, and
the „new‟ ICTs of computers, satellite and wireless technology and the Internet.
These different tools are now able to work together, and combine to form our
„networked world‟ – a massive infrastructure of interconnected telephone
services, standardized computing hardware, the internet, radio and television,
which reaches into every corner of the globe‟. Technological literacy is required
for learning with technologies to be possible, implying a two-step process in
which students learn about the technologies before they can actually use them
to learn.The computers can itself be the object of instruction. Computer can be
used very effectively as an object of instruction in Commerce Education.
As per the European Commission, the importance of ICT lies in the
technology itself than its ability to create greater access to information and
communication in underserved populations. Many countries around the world
have established organisations for the promotion of ICTs, because it is feared
that unless less technologically advanced areas have a chance to catch up.
Teachers have taught through lectures and presentations interspersed
with tutorials and learning activities designed to consolidate and rehearse
the content. Contemporary settings are now favouring curriculum that
promote competency and performance. Curriculum are starting to
emphasize capabilities and to be concerned more with how the information
will be used than with what the information is. Contemporary ICTs are able
to provide strong support for all these requirements and there are now many
outstanding examples of world class settings for competency and
performance-based curricula that make sound use of the affordances of
these technologies.Learning through computers and the Internet combines
learning about them with learning with them. It involves learning the
technological skills “just-in-time” or when the learner needs to learn them as
he or she engages in a curriculum-related activity. For example, secondary
school students who must present a report on the impact on their
community of an increase in the price of oil for an Economics class may
start doing research online, using spreadsheet and database programs to
help organize and analyse the data they have collected, as well using a word
processing application to prepare their written report.
4. Learning with the technology means focusing on how the technology
can be the means to learning ends across the curriculum. It includes:
Presentation, demonstration, and the manipulation of data
using productivity tools
Use of curriculum-specific applications types such as
educational games, drill and practice, simulations, tutorials,
virtual laboratories, visualizations and graphical
representations of abstract concepts, musical composition, and
expert systems
Use of information and resources on CD-ROM or online such as
encyclopedia, interactive maps and atlases, electronic journals
and other references.
In concert with geographical flexibility, technology-facilitated educational
programs also remove many of the temporal constraints that face learners with
special needs. Students are starting to appreciate the capability to undertake
education anywhere, anytime and anyplace. One of the most vital contributions
of ICT in the field of education is- Easy Access to Learning.
When looking at the current widespread diffusion and use of ICT in modern
societies, especially by the young the so-called digital generation then it should
be clear that ICT will affect the complete learning process today and in the
future. Authenticity is an important issue which should be addressed in the
design and development of learning environments. Learning environments need
to reflect the potential uses of knowledge that pupils are expected to master, in
order to prevent the acquired knowledge from becoming inert. In addition,
teachers should stimulate pupils to engage in active knowledge construction.
This calls for open-ended learning environments instead of learning
environments which focus on a mere transmission of facts
The integration of ICT with teaching and learning has produced some of the
significant positive gains in learners‟ knowledge, skills and attitudes by
providing the following key advantages:
Explore and represent information dynamically and in many forms
Become socially aware and more confident
Increase motivation
Communicate effectively about complex processes
Develop better understanding and broader view of processes and
systems
5. Modes through which integration of ICT
The use of information and communication technology (ICT) such as
Internet applications, CD-ROMs, video technology and various computer
attachments and software programs have caused many changes in society.
These changes have not just been of a technical nature but more importantly of
a structural nature. Many of the major institutions of our society have changed
and the way we live our daily lives have been impacted. However, the impact on
education may just beginning to be felt as teachers integrate this new
technology into their teaching. In the early stages of the use of ICT in teaching,
looking at the experiences of teachers at a high school in the forefront provides
some clues as to what possibilities and problems may be presented with this
new technology.
Learning is a combination of learning services and technology to
provide high quality integrated learning at any time and any place. It results
from a new blend of resources, interactivity, performance and structured
learning activities .The methodology followed in E-Learning makes use of
various technologies to enhance the quality of the learning process, by
helping full realisation of the educational objectives aimed at and by
catering to the needs of a more diverse learner population with minimal
expenditure.
Information and communication technology are becoming an important
part of the life. Rapidly developing virtual education and distant learning
methods are replacing the classical methods of education. IT and Computers
are widely used to expand teaching possibilities. As education is a complex
process in which human and technical resources should be used very
carefully, concepts related to teaching and learning has changed radically. The
rapid growing visualization techniques are one of the significant developments
in this area. Computer and related technologies widely used all over the world.
As it can dramatically improve the learning performance of students as well as
the teaching productivity and effectiveness of teachers, these are widely used in
education.
6. The various modes through which ICT can be integrated as follows:
Internet
Internet is a network where thousands of computers are connected to a
worldwide network through a common communication protocol. Internet today
has grown into a forty million user network and continues to grow at the rate of
an estimated twenty thousand users every day. Internet is undoubtedly, the
world‟s wonder network, carrying information on almost any subject under the
sun.
E-Learning
The term E-Learning is derived from „electronic learning‟ and refers to
technology based learning or the „electronic‟ delivery of learning. It covers a
wide range of distributed knowledge applications and processes, including
computer-based learning, web-based learning, virtual classrooms, and digital
collaboration. Thus, E-Learning includes the delivery of content via all
electronic media, including the Internet, Intranets. Extranets etc.
Power Point Presentation
Now a day the computers play a vital role in the storage, retrieval and
transmission of information. Most of the colleges and schools are tapping
information through this media for curriculum transaction. Presentation
software‟s are used to present and idea, topic, message, lecture, information,
etc. on a subject, in front of an audience using computer system and LCD
projector.
CD-ROMs
CDs are developed to help the users interact easily. The content or topic to be
taught are programmed and stored in the CDs with multimedia features and
effect. CD ROMs are the storage media used to record, retrieve, read and replay
the digitally formatted content of programmes and packages.
7. Conclusion
In order to provide a richlearning experience for a new generation of
Commerce students, it is important thatcontent, technology and pedagogy
are equally balanced.In designing learning materials using ICT productivity
tools certain pedagogical principles needs to be considered carefully. Mere
ICT tools by themselves do not make good pedagogy. The critical question in
education is- in what ways ICT can enhance learning and teaching
practices.The adoption and use of ICTs in education have a positive impact
on teaching, learning, and research. ICT can affect the delivery of education
and enable wider access to the same. In addition, it will increase flexibility
so that learners can access the education regardless of time and
geographical barriers. It can influence the way students are taught and how
they learn.ICT can meaningfully communicate all types of information in
graphic, text, audio and video.Mere learning ICT skills is not suffice, but
using ICT to improve the teaching and learning is the key for pedagogy-
technology integration. ICT brings so many facilities towards Commerce
education system.
