 Abstract

Health is a fundamental component of social and economic development, serving as a crucial resource for daily living. The relationship between health and human behaviour has been a significant area of interest in public health research. Adolescence represents a transitional phase between childhood and adulthood, characterized by biological, psychological, and social. According to the Adolescent Reproductive Health Policy of Ghana and the WHO, adolescents are individuals between the ages of 10 and 19 years. In this paper discuss about out of school rural youth socio-economic conditions and knowledge about the sexual behavior and how its implicate the society.

 Abstract

This study examines the relationship between parental socio-economic status and the achievement in mathematics of secondary school students, with particular emphasis on the influence of sex and type of school management. The primary objective is to explore how socio-economic status affects students' performance in mathematics and to test the hypotheses formulated accordingly. The Modified Kuppuswamy's Socio-Economic Status Scale (updated by Parul Sood and Supreet Bindra, 2022) was utilized to assess the socio-economic status of the students' families. Mathematics achievement was measured based on students' marks from the previous academic year. The sample comprised 120 Class IX students drawn from government, private aided and private unaided schools located in the Bengaluru North zone of Bengaluru Urban District. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation, along with an independent samples 't'-test and the coefficient of correlation to determine the relationships and differences between groups. The findings revealed a significant positive relationship between socio-economic status and achievement in mathematics. Furthermore, the results indicated that girls performed better than boys in mathematics, while students from private unaided schools outperformed their counterparts in government and private unaided schools. This disparity in achievement may be attributed to differences in access to educational resources, learning environments and parental support across different socio-economic backgrounds and school types.

 Abstract

The paper examines value preferences of hearing and hearing impaired late adolescent students. The sample consists of 400 hearing (normal) and 400 hearing impaired (male-200 and female-200) adolescent students (15 to 18 years age group) studying different schools and colleges in Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh state. Simple random, purposive and convenient sampling techniques were used to select the sample. Mean, standard deviation and t- test were employed for the collected data. The results indicated that the adolescent students gave most preference to hedonistic and power values, and least preference to health and social values among the dimensions of personal value questionnaire.

 Abstract

The reality is that the teaching is an art and to acquire efficiency in this art the teacher need two things I). The complete knowledge of the subject matter II).The scientific knowledge of the teaching styles for discrimination the knowledge to the people. Maxims of teaching have been discovered, not invented. They are simply statements the way in which teaching and learning go forward. They ensure efficient and effective teaching. Instruction process developments its attention to only one dimension of instruction, teaching strategy. Teaching strategy defined as patterns of behaviour, described in activity sequences. They are six major types of teaching strategies (1) Advance organizer, (2) Concept attainment, (3) cognitive development, (4) Contingency management, (5) Self-management, (6) basic practice strategy. These six strategies are the most well noted and most widely used in classroom.

 Abstract

This research investigates the use of machine learning classification techniques to forecast student academic outcomes based on the MathE dataset. The study focuses on data preprocessing and analysis to uncover critical attributes that affect scholastic achievement. A variety of classification algorithms--including Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting--were applied and their performances compared. Evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score were employed to measure model effectiveness. Findings suggest that ensemble approaches outperform conventional models in anticipating student success. This work delivers meaningful perspectives for educators and decision-makers to strengthen academic support and implement timely interventions.

 Abstract

ABSTRACT Achievement is of paramount importance, particularly, in the present socio-economic and cultural contexts. Obviously in the school/college level, great emphasis is placed on the academic achievement, right from the beginning of formal education. The main objective of the present study is to study the influence of gender and management on the achievement in mathematics of secondary school students The Achievement in Mathematics test constructed by Yella Reddy, B (2020) was adopted for this study. The Achievement in Mathematics test have 100 items, One mark is awarded for each correct answer and the total marks obtained by each student as Achievement in Mathematics. A sample of 320 Secondary school students representing different gender and management in Chittoor District is taken for the data analysis following stratified sampling technique. 't' test was employed for analysis of the data. There is significant influence of gender and management at 0.01 level of significance on the achievement in mathematics of secondary school students. Girls and Private secondary school students have high academic achievement than the Boys and Government secondary school students. Government has to provide good amenities for Boys and Government secondary school students.

 Abstract

V.S. Naipaul's A Bend in the River is a powerful exploration of postcolonial Africa and the existential dilemmas faced by individuals navigating the collapse of colonial structures. This research paper examines the novel's central themes of identity crisis, political instability, alienation, and the disillusionment that accompanies decolonization. Through the perspective of Salim, an Indian trader in an unnamed African country, Naipaul crafts a narrative steeped in historical reflection and personal struggle. This paper argues that A Bend in the River not only critiques the failures of postcolonial governance but also meditates on the psychological ramifications of cultural dislocation. The study further explores how Naipaul uses narrative voice, setting, and character development to highlight the enduring effects of colonial legacy on modern identity.

 Abstract

In the evolving landscape of criminal investigations, technology has emerged as a transformative force, revolutionizing evidence collection and law enforcement operations. This study explores the integration of advanced tools such as artificial intelligence, big data analytics, digital forensics, and biometrics in modern policing. By enhancing the speed, accuracy, and credibility of investigations, these technologies address traditional limitations and adapt to the challenges posed by cybercrime and sophisticated criminal activities. Historical milestones, including fingerprint and DNA analysis, laid the groundwork for contemporary advancements such as 3D crime scene reconstruction and predictive policing. Digital forensics now plays a pivotal role in uncovering crucial electronic evidence, while surveillance technologies like CCTV, drones, and facial recognition have expanded investigative reach. However, the ethical implications of these tools, particularly concerning privacy, bias, and data security, require careful consideration. This study also highlights disparities in technological access among law enforcement agencies, stressing the need for capacity-building initiatives. Future trends point toward increased reliance on AI and data-driven policing, demanding stringent ethical standards and transparent governance. Through examining these developments, the study offers policy recommendations to guide responsible technology integration, ensuring that innovation enhances justice while safeguarding civil liberties.
