The document discusses problem solving and decision making. It defines problem solving as the active effort to find a solution to achieve a goal that is not readily attainable. There are four components of a problem: the initial state, goal state, set of rules, and obstacles. Problems can be well-defined or ill-defined. Decision making involves choosing among alternatives while considering costs, benefits, and consequences. Major theories of decision making discussed include expected utility theory and prospect theory. The document also outlines different perspectives and general methods for problem solving, including algorithms, heuristics like representative heuristics and anchoring/adjustment heuristics.
Tools & techniques of data collection.-intelligence &aptitude tests Neha Deo
In any Research, to collect data, different tools & techniques can be used. In Educational research, Intelligence & Aptitude testing are two important tools. In this presentation, the testing of these two variables are described in details.
Sentence completion tests are a class of semi-structured projective techniques.
Sentence completion tests typically provide respondents with beginnings of sentences, referred to as "stems", and respondents then complete the sentences in ways that are meaningful to them.
The responses are believed to provide indications of
Attitudes,
Beliefs,
Motivations, or other
Mental states.
Therefore, sentence completion technique, with such advantage, promotes the respondents to disclose their concealed feelings.
There is debate over whether or not sentence completion tests elicit responses from conscious thought rather than unconscious states.
This debate would affect its categorizing as projective tests

Research can be defined as the
investigation of any problem and its solution finding
using continuous assessment of any situation by some
research instrument for running any system
consistently with the spatial and temporal
transformation. Our research will be done to find
optimum solution using logic and ethics and modern
social dynamic frame work where logic will be defined
as the reasoning or argument that can protect our
field of thought from errors and also our work more
correct , and ethics will be general study of morals
honesty , humanity and optimum solution will be that
solution that involved maximum number of dynamics
related to the research problem and solution.

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.

4. “Problem Solving refers to
active effort to discover what
must be done to achieve a
goal, that is not readily
attainable.”
5. An initial state : The situation at the
beginning of the problem.
A goal state : The solution to the Problem
A set of Rules : That must be followed.
A set of obstacles : That must be overcome.
6. 1. Well or ill defined
I. Well defined Problems
Clear and Structured
Easily assessed
(For eg. Sudoku, Scrabbles)
II. Ill defined Problems
Contrast
Fuzzy and abstract
(For eg. First time writing a Research Paper)
7. 2. Routine and Non Routine
I. Routine Problems
Solved by applying well practiced procedure
( For eg. Students of IIIrd Year)
II. Non-Routine Problems
Solved by fresh procedure
(For eg. Students of Ist Semester )

11. Decision Making is a step/ kind of Problem
Solving in which we are presented with
several alternatives (like different costs,
benefits and consequences) among which we
must choose.
13. The expected utility of the outcome
And their respected probability
Utility refers to whatever end a person would like to achieve, be
it happiness, money or something else.
According to Barron (1999), Good might be a better word to use
According to Broome (1991), An amount of good that comes
out of a decision.
14. Situation 1: Flip a Coin
Your Choice:
If it turn up heads, you get Rs. 100
Situation 2: Roll a Dice
Your Choice:
If it comes up specific no. 4, you will get Rs.
150
Out of the two alternatives whichever,
provides the best combination of “Good”
and “likelihood of occurring” will be the one
we choose.
15. Prospect Theory, a descriptive model assumes
that people make decisions based on what
they have right now and interpret gains and
losses on different scales, losses being more
psychologically powerful.
This theory predicts the framing effect,
whereby people are Risk Averse when faced
with certain gains and Risk prone when faced
with certain losses.
16. 1. Behaviorist Perspective: Interaction with the environment.
• Attention : How we selected important information
from the environment.
• Knowledge : The store of general and important
information for performing task.
• Memory : A process for storing, retrieving, & working
with information.
• Decision Making : Set of higher level of processes that work
together allow us to function day to day.
• Consciousness : Once awareness

18. Decision making is a reasoning and emotional
process which can be rational or irrational
and can be based on explicit assumption and
tacit assumption.

22. GENERAL METHODS OF PROBLEM SOLVING
1. Algorithms
2. Heuristics
( In which we have to decide which we have to choose
or apply to solve the problem.)
23. Set of rules that can be applied systematically
to solve certain type of problem.
Ex-
Mathematical formula
Cross words
Sudoku
24. Strategies that may help to produce correct
solution.
(Not grantee the solution is the reason of wrong decisions, but
allow us to have an idea)
Basic Heuristics
1. Representative Heuristics
2. Availability Heuristics
3. Anchoring/Adjustment Heuristics
25. Person trying to decide where the current
situation make represent the previous related
situation which they experienced.
trying to relate characteristics of current
situation to his mental representative
characteristics of the situation.
26. For example:
A person have to make decision on the basses of
representative heuristics is whether the given
characteristics of a male or female??
Long hairs
Black eyes
High heals
5.5 inch height
Wearing sari
Male Female
27. Example 2:
Whether the person is a truck driver or a
professor??
1st description 2nd description
Wearing Glasses Wearing Dhoti- kurta
Drink Tea &Coffee Smoking
Using Library Using Radio
Having Books Having License
Truck-driver Professor Truck-driver Professor
28. A person response to those things which are
easily available in their memory.
Example 1:
When we ask a psychology student to give or
recall 10 names of psychologists or 10 names of
economist???
(Most probably he recall 10 names of psychologists then
economists because psychologists name are easily available
in his mind then economists.)
29. Example2:
Suppose a group of students read a story
about a women being attracted by a shark
and another group read about a women
winning the lottery.
we asked questions about both the cases???
(1st group of students are probably more able to answer the
question about the women being attested by a shark and 2nd
group is more able to answer questions being asked about
the women win lottery.)
30. We make an approximation about something
(to anchor it), once its anchored, we then
make some adjustments with the additional
information and then take final decision.
Example 1: When we ask a student -
How many hairs you have in your head??
[Average 12000]
(His answer may be around 12650 or 11999 something)
31. Example 2 :
How many hurricanes comes last year ??
Group A : given average of 50
Result: 60 hurricanes last year
Group B : given average of 10
Result: 6 hurricanes last year
(Therefore we can see how responses differed from
two groups when they anchored there available
information.)
32. Condition apply:
Like most heuristics anchor/adjustment
heuristic can be helpful but if the anchor is
misleading ….it may lead down the wrong
path.
Utility refers to whatever end a person would like to achieve, be it happiness, money or something else.
According to Barron (1999), Good might be a better word to use.
According to Broome (1991), A amount of good that comes out of a decision.
