EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND THEIR SIGNIFICANCE IN TEACHING LEARNING PROCESS

DR. BABURAM SWAMI

ABSTRACT

It is universally acknowledged fact that the great success of any organisation depends on its communication. Any task or transaction that requires more than one person can only be successfully completed with communication. In this paper, I'll discuss about communication it’s types and importance. It's nearly impossible to go through a day without the use of communication. Communication is sending and receiving information between two or more people. The person sending the message is referred to as the sender, while the person receiving the information is called the receiver. The information conveyed can include facts, ideas, concepts, opinions, beliefs, attitudes, instructions and even emotions. Methods of communication vary, verbal communication is simply sending a message through a spoken language that is understood by both the sender and receiver of the message.  Written communication is sending a message by the use of symbols that are understood by both the sender and receiver of the message. If you are reading the transcript of this lesson, you are engaged in written communication. Body language is a form of nonverbal communication that can be used to send a message. You can often tell if your boss is pleased or upset simply by looking at his facial expressions, posture and gestures...

HALFWAY HOUSE: A CRITIQUE ON LOVE, MARRIAGE, SEX, AND VIOLENCE

DR. SHAILAJA B. WADIKAR

ABSTRACT

Rakesh’s plays depict the real-life events and incidents of the contemporary Indian society. Most of the plays deal with the theme of love, sex and violence. It reveals anger and frustration of the post-1960 generation in the Indian context. The ideas implicit in the themes are revolutionary. They are opposed to the conventional norms and established values. Rakesh explores human mind and its complexities in all depth and variety. He presents man-woman relationship in terms of sensuality and violence rather than love and affection. Regarding marriage, the play Half Way House projects two types of views through the character of Mahendranath and Savitri: traditional view of marriage expecting male-dominance and marriage as a companionship and as a means for self-fulfilment.

NEELAM SINGH

ABSTRACT

The present paper aims at analyzing Mahesh Elkunchwar’s play Garbo in terms of creation and destruction. How the destruction of creation and its creator by the destructive force occurred in this play is the major concern of this paper. Garbo – the protagonist of the play has been murdered by Shrimant because she has murdered their hope of life, which was also the creation of the trio- Intuc , Shrimant and Pansy.

When she has decided something for herself she has been brutally murdered as the only refuge has been destructed by the creator herself. She was the medium who can take them out from the insignificant life and can make their life meaningful but at last the negative force gets strong and destruction has won over creation.

DIGAMBAR S. KULKARNI

ABSTRACT

The present paper is an honest attempt to understand the concept of social realism in literature. Realism, broadly speaking, is the faithful or truthful representation of the events in a matter of fact way avoiding any kind of embellishment or glorification. In literature, the term ‘realism’ is associated with a number of prefixes that varies its trends of presentation. There may be philosophical realism, magic realism, surrealism, hallucinatory realism, social realism and many more. Social realism is a literary technique that presents a true picture of society. It also mirrors the life as it is and offers social commentary. The novelists who use the technique of social realism often present the social evils, social injustice and social issues that affect the life of middle class particularly. Chetan Bhagat is the well known author of six novels and all these novels are about the youth, their aspirations and problems, their struggle, success and failures.

AUROBINDOS SPIRITUALITY IN CONTRAST WITH HEGALIAN DIALECTICS :- AN ANALYSIS OF INDIAN RENAISSANCE

MANIS
DR. JYOTSNA SINHA

ABSTRACT

The paper analyses selected literary writings of G.W.F Hegel and Sri Aurobindo, and therefrom attempts to place in logical perspective, in the context of Indian renaissance, the similarities and dissimilarities between their political thought. It seeks to place in Hegelian perspective Aurobindo’s view that realities, exterior to a citizen are in fact, materially tangible reflections of that particular individuals, internal calm or turmoil. The individual is for Aurobindo, both in spirit and consciousness, the microcosmic building block of a functional society, while in Hegels view the spirit, both individual and universal, is not a personal but a social construct. In the light of such fundamental premises, this paper seeks to comprehend, through bringing in sharp contrast the thoughts of Sri Aurobindo and Hegel, the antecedent phenomenology of political independence and its future manifestations in literature and society...

DAN SIMMONS’S SUMMER OF NIGHT AS HORROR NOVEL

KASABE SOMNATH DEVIDAS

ABSTRACT

There is some debate as to whether "horror" is a genre or, like "adventure," an aspect that may be found in several genres. Horror is a certain mood or atmosphere that might be found in a variety of places. Traditionally, horror was associated with certain archetypes such as demons, witches, ghosts, vampires and the like. However, this can be found in other genres, especially fantasy. If horror is a genre, then it deals with a protagonist dealing with overwhelming dark and evil forces. The key ingredient in horror fiction is its ability to provoke fear or terror in readers, usually via something demonic. There should be a sense of dread, unease, anxiety, or foreboding. Some critics have noted that experiencing horror fiction is like reading about your worst nightmares. Summer Of night was more about the "secrets and silences of childhood" than it was about monsters. Here are a few snapshots from that summer of 1960 in the "real" Elm Haven - Brimfield, Illinois - with a kid brother and some true friends who may (or may not) bear a close resemblance to some of the characters in Summer Of Night.

Key Words- Horror, Novel, Summer of Night.

INDIAN WOMEN IN POLITICS

JYOTIRAM UDHAVRAO SONWANE

ABSTRACT

As Nancy Rothburn says, "A strong woman understand that the gifts such as logic decisiveness and strength are just as feminine as intuition emotional connection. She values and uses all of her gifts", many Indian women showed their decisiveness and strength in politics as an iron lady. The woman is always considered weak and fragile on the basis of her womanly qualities such as love and emotion. But, when she rebels and decides, she not only rivals the man but also compels the man to command her. So, on her quality, Plato says, "If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things" .He means that woman has been gifted the same quality and ability equivalent to the man. The history has shown that along with the powerful men who changed the course of history, there were a number of powerful women too who shone and blazed as a fiery path for countless women in their journey of trials and tribulations. In the words of Dorothy L. Sayers," Whenever you find a man, you will find a great mother or a great wife standing behind him or so they used to say. It would be interesting to know how many great women have had great father and husbands behind them". So, we have to see such Indian women who sacrificed and spent the every moment of pleasure and luxury for others and for their nation.

STUDY ON EARLY AGE STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT OF MULTI BLENDED CONCRETES CONTAINING FLY ASH AND SILICA FUME

G.V.RAMANA, MALSANI POTHARAJU, N. V. MAHURE, MURARI RATNAM

ABSTRACT

It is of significant interest to produce high performance multi blended mix concretes by using supplementary cementatious materials (SCM). In this research an attempt is made to compare the performance of   multi blended mix concretes i.e. both binary and ternary mixes with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete. In binary mixes cement was partially replaced by low calcium fly ash (LCFA) or silica fume (SF) and in ternary mixes both LCFA and SF were combined to partially replace OPC. The class F fly ash is used in different proportions of 20%, 30%and 40% and silica fume of 5% and 10% by weight of cement. A constant water binder ratio of 0.42 was maintained. Super plasticizer of required quantity was added to achieve the required degree of workability. The specimens were tested for compression at both 7 and 28 days. The multi blended mix concretes exhibited slightly higher compressive strength than OPC mix concrete and also better performance in short term strength development. The ultra-sonic pulse velocity was also carried out on all the multi blended mixes to assess the homogeneity of concrete.

Index Terms—Binary mix, Compressive strength, Low calcium fly ash, Silica fume, Ternary mix, ultra-sonic pulse velocity

HISTORICAL ROOTS AND BASIC THEMES OF EXISTENTIAL PHILOSOPHY: AN ANALYSIS

JAVID AHMAD MALLAH

ABSTRACT

The aim of this paper is to explore historical roots and basic themes of existentialism. The paper foregrounds the old philosophical controversy between existence and essence. In this paper I shall try to examine the basic themes, facts and arguments put forwarded by the existential philosophers. It also highlights main features of existential philosophy including uniqueness of man and his freedom which is unfettered and unrestrained. The paper may try to indicate the fact that existentialism is the only philosophy which considers individuality as supreme and emphasizes the importance of man as an individual rather the man in general. In general terms the paper may be approached and discussed how existentialism can be described as an attempt to reach the inmost core of human existence in a concrete and individual fashion.

ABSTRACT

India is the fourth largest country in terms of Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) and constitutes one of the fastest growing markets in the world. Globalization of businesses, infrastructural bottlenecks, increasing uncertainty of supply chain networks, shortening of product life cycles and proliferation of product variety have forced Indian firms to look beyond their four walls. They face issues related to choosing and working with the right supply chain partners (suppliers, customers and logistics service providers), fostering trust between them and designing the right system of gauging performance.

CHALLENGING TRADITIONS: CONTEMPORARINESS AND CULTURAL TRANSITIONS IN HAIDER’S HOW IT HAPPENED

DR. PAYEL DUTTA CHOWDHURY

ABSTRACT

The focus on the younger generation challenging established cultural norms is a common aspect in many contemporary books and films. The projection of the traditional beliefs and practices of a society is looked at in a critical manner by these authors from the perspective of the youth. Pakistani writer, Shajaf Fatima Haider, in her debut novel, How It Happened, focuses on the contemporary scenario in modern day Pakistan where traditional norms related to the conduct of marriages are challenged by the younger generation. This paper is an attempt to explore the cultural transitions in a society where established practices are found outdated by the youth. The paper also looks at the status of women in such a society where the clash between the old and the new comes to surface. The living representative of the old culture, the family’s matriarch, Dadi, tries her best to keep up the traditions of the past alive. This ‘glorious’ past reveals a time when the women were nothing less than mere puppets and their entire existence depended on how admirable they would prove to be in the marriage market. This paper takes up this particular issue and critically looks at the portrayal of such situation for women vis-à-vis the contemporary times when things have taken a different turn. Attempt has been made to understand the way the author presents the cultural transitions in a society where the status of women has undergone drastic changes but there still remain traces of the past engraved in the way of life.

ABSTRACT

The values of managers and employees in organizations are phenomena that have captured the interest of researchers, practitioners, social critics, and the public at large. Despite this attention, there continues to be a conspicuous lack of agreement on what values are and how they influence individuals. In this article we discuss how values have been defined and conceptualized. Focusing on values as desirable modes of behavior, we describe how they affect individuals in organizations and discuss some of the salient controversies that characterize contemporary research on values.
