3	{tooltip}Effect of Yoga Exercises on Achievement, Memory and Reasoning Ability{end-texte}Abstract – Now, we are living in the world of 21st century which is known as the world of ‘Mental Stress’ in these circumstances, knowledge amplifies day by day. There is a Knowledge explosion in the world, hence each and every person tries to get this Knowledge by new & most recent Medias & they also use it. In this direction there is a qualitative growing up in the person for in receipt of Knowledge & its use by appreciative. In the same way, we notice the qualitative addition in the Educational organization, teachers, & the students, which are going to get Knowledge. In these circumstances, teachers & students feel a perplexity. So there is a question against us that, this growth in the education organization, teachers & in the students will have no proper direction for the Academic achievement of students. If we get an affirmative answer of this question, we must do the fundamental change in the teaching learning process of Education. In the present day, each person including the students and the teachers face anxiety, frustration, etc. Due to these factors, the students cannot keep much interest in their study, academic activity & their performance in the entire exam. Consequently, in this way it is very essential for the students to keep their eyes in their study & academic activity. For the outcome of this predicament, ‘YOGA’ is the recent and excellent way. That is why; the investigator has found a research gap, to know the Effect of Yoga Exercises on Academic Achievement, Short-term memory and Verbal Reasoning ability.{end-tooltip}	Nilesh Gajjar

4	{tooltip}Problems of Teacher Education in India{end-texte}Abstract – Over the last half a century and particularly, in the recent decades, teaching learning has been undergoing drastic changes. There has been a shift towards student centered classrooms with teacher’s role more as facilitator of learning rather than an autocratic master. Unlike in the past when the teacher was entrusted with transferring the contents of curriculum to a passive audience of students, today new experiments are being tried out in the classroom that includes project based learning, development of thinking skills, and discovery learning approaches. As part of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) the textbooks have also been modified (in my opinion, to make them worse than before in many respects).Many teachers are not properly trained in implementing the concepts behind the new curriculum and many are not equipped to properly implement the curriculum.{end-tooltip}	Dr. Ashok J.

5	{tooltip}Role of a Teacher for Quality in Education{end-texte}Abstract – We are all interested in quality in education. The future of our country and the world depends on our children and college students receiving the best instruction. Using the framework of quality in our school districts, we can design roadmaps for continuous improvement. When educators understand what continuous improvement is all about, they gain confidence that they can shape and alter the nature of their schools. Change is possible! Inside the daily reality of classrooms and educational establishments, the promotion of quality education for all young people sharply brings to light problems concerning the role of the teacher and other education providers: their recruitment, the adequacy of their profile and function, their training, and their social recognition and status. It is evident that a sufficient number of competent teachers is required in order to improve the quality of educational processes.{end-tooltip}	Paragi Shah

7	{tooltip}A Preparation and Standardization of Spiritual Intelligence Scale{end-texte}Abstract – There is a lot of possibility of mental, social, emotional, physical development in today’s Education. But it is also important that how it comes out from inner world of students. In the past several years, selection of the teacher in secondary school have continued to emphasize the achievement of outcomes which is dominated by cognitive learning, that is, the attainment of knowledge and particular skills. In addition, the neglect of the spiritual dimension in life, both in society and in education has resulted in a lack of appropriate language to speak of spiritual things. Rabindranath Tagore said that A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continuous to burn its own flame. A teacher should deal with his students with a deep sense of moral obligation and treat them with affection. For students a good teacher is nearer to God. The future of the country is not built by bricks but by brains, not by cement but by considering moral and spiritual dimensions of life. Teacher education system plays a key role for building a society for now and for future. Something more will be expected from future teachers. They will be appreciated not only for their knowledge and purely technical skills but also for their spiritual personality. In present thesis investigator tried to make the spiritual intelligence Scale.{end-tooltip}	Shirishkumar K. Jadav

10	{tooltip}Literature and Women’s Empowerment{end-texte}Abstract – In this paper resercher has tried to briefly discuss the role of Indian women writers in women’s empowerment. Elaine Showalters’ remarks are significant, “It was through women’s liberation movement that we began to draw connections between our own work and our own lives, to note the disparities between the identifications and ambitions that had attracted us, along with thousands of other women, to the study and teaching of literature and the limited and secondary roles granted to fictional heroines, women writers or female scholars. Feminism spoke to our lives and our literary experience with the fierce urgency of a revolution or great awakening 1”.{end-tooltip}	Dr. Anjana Das

A total number of 100 college teachers were included in the study. Stratified random sampling technique was used for the sample selection. Organizational role stress scale by Pareek (1983), job satisfaction scale by Sharma and Singh (1999) and job involvement scale by Singh (1984) was used for the data collection. 2 x 2 ANOVA was applied for the computation of the data. The result showed that male and female college teachers significantly differ on their level of organizational role stress, job satisfaction and job involvement.

It is said to be a complicated happening for researchers where in theory and practice are contrary to each other. On one hand, in theory, a stock split is a cosmetic change while on other hand, empirically, several studies have observed that stock splits results in significant impact on ARs and liquidity around announcement and ex-split day of stock splits. The present discussion offers different arguments to explain the unprecedented consequences of stock splits.{end-tooltip}	Anjali Gupta

13	{tooltip}Graphic Study of Butterfly Wing: Primary Approach{end-texte}Abstract -The geometrical complexity in the wing pattern of the butterfly species of different taxa was analyzed for their fractal dimension, using mathematical models in Matlab. Fractals are geometrical figures which repeat themselves at progressively smaller scale and exhibit more complex structure at larger scale. The analysis was restricted to a small number of butterfly species of Saurashtra region, Gujrat, India. The analysis of FD value of wing pattern was conducted between species of each genus, within sub-families and among families of Lepidoptera. Preliminary results provide some evidence for the similarity of the FD value of the wing pattern. Among five families, Nymphalidae and Pieridae were found to have the same mean value for the FD of their wing pattern, in spite of their taxonomical difference. The study thus exhibits that taxonomically diverse species may hold similar FD values and the determining factors for these results need to be investigated.{end-tooltip}	B.B.Radadia
