Abstract: The concept of a career or choice of occupation begins right from the time children indulge in pretend play as a doctor, teacher and other professionals they see around them. Often children find themselves answering questions as to what they want to become when they are older. Although this process starts early, actual planning and decision making start in adolescence, the period between 13 and 18 years. It is a key developmental period characterized by several biological and psychological changes and requires the successful resolution of specific tasks like identity achievement. It is a stage where they struggle to find a balance between obedience and independence. Along........ .

Abstract: Oral history or oral tradition has a great role to play as source in the rewriting of history. To study regional or local history one cannot always find specific written record or some archeological data. Over the years, a lot of attention has been given to the study of folklore as an academic discipline and oral traditions have served as the index for critical inquiry of historical records as well as source materials where such records are missing. The Tiwas or Lalungs are a scheduled plain tribe of Assam. The Tiwas mostly inhabit the areas of central Assam namely, Nagaon and Morigaon and also some areas of Dhemaji, Jorhat, Sonapur, and the hilly areas of Karbi-Anglong district. The Tiwas have a varied and colourful history. The Tiwas did not get due attention from the historians due to the lack of documentations and source materials that could be used as written records. The past of the Tiwas mostly survives in the form of oral traditions and legends. JungalBalahu, a powerful king of the Tiwas, is the symbol of cultural pride and glory. He had his capital first at Khala and thereafter at Sahari. Due to the lack of research,........

Abstract: As a reflector of the American scene, Death of a Salesman is not a unique case. A close look at American drama after Eugene O‟Neill reveals that the plots and the dramatis personae of representative plays show a similar relationship to the milieu. As Miller deals with the "little man‟ in American society, so Tennessee Williams explores the mind of the Southerner caught between an idyllic past and an undesirable present. Thornton Wilder dramatizes the ideals of small-town American and Edward Albee satirizes the middle-class suburbanite in the affluent sixties.........

Abstract: Climate change is the catch-all term for the shift in worldwide weather phenomena associated with an increase in global average temperature. The study sought to examine the trends of rainfall and temperatures in the past 45 years from 1971 to 2018 as evidence of climate change in Lake 94 Baringo County, Kenya since the Ilchamus community have been exposed to effects of climate change both on terrestrial and aquatic environments to a great magnitude that has alleviated socio-economic and environment concerns. The study used descriptive design, adopting purposive sampling to carry out case study and focus group discussion. Key finding was the formation of Lake 94 in 1994 and frequent drought followed by flooding. The Ilchamus community should be trained on disaster management..

Abstract: African cultural practices and traditions provided individuals with socially mediated contexts of behaviour adaptation and learning. With Westernization most children today have few structures to learn social self-regulating. The role of cultural structures, such as Circumcision (Kamuratanet in Kalenjin) was explored for its potential educational value and how it provided initiates with contexts for self-regulating behaviour management. The main purpose of this study was to carry out a qualitative research into Kamuratanet as an Educational self-regulating social mechanism of behaviour management among the Kalenjin. The specific objective of the study was to describe the structures employed in Kamuratanet in implementing its social behaviour curriculum. The theoretical........ .

Abstract: The objectives of this study was to investigate the model currently at work for preparing primary school EFL teachers and the knowledge base that can respond to teachers‟ pedagogical skills in teaching English at primary school.

The study found out that the current pre-service teacher education program failed to equip the candidates on the skills of adapting a foreign language teaching materials because less attention is given to content knowledge courses. The program failed to keep balance among the knowledge bases proposed by Day (1991)..

Abstract: Practices for elementary education in India are no doubt leading to a gradual increase in enrolment, and attendance and reduce dropout rate but a great deal remains to be done : education at the upper primary is still far from universal (especially for girls), pockets of backwardness persist even at the primary level. The first step to achieving any improvement in education is to allocate fund for it. Funds allocation for education in India has increased significantly in the past few years, though it is still short of the funds in comparison of other countries. What is of concern is the states inability to utilise the funds allocated. Clearly there are the lessons to be learnt from the states which utilised funds more efficiently. But more significantly, there is need to improve quality of spending for getting better outcomes.

Abstract: At present, information and communication technology is being used extensively in the field of education. Communication is the process of knowing and understanding each other of thoughts and feelings in the mood of thought exchange. The classroom teaching process will be made effective by the use of multiple media available in the schools. Therefore, to know the effect of information and communication technology on the academic achievement and academic aptitude of high school students, the control group was taught by traditional lecture method and practical group by computer based teaching method. In which it was found that the academic achievement and academic interest of the children remained the same even after teaching by computer. Correlation was found between the academic achievement and academic interest of the children in the classroom teaching process by computer teaching. As academic interest increased, children's academic achievement also increased.
