This has led to learning losses among learners especially in the rural pockets of the State. As a result, the Education Department has given utmost priority to the two most vulnerable age groups namely, children at elementary level, where learning loss can limit educational progress most and learners transitioning from upper primary to secondary education. To ensure continuous and minimum levels learning, the Directorate of Educational research & Training (DERT) developed the Adjusted Academic Calendar (AAC) for Classes I – V in close consultation with schoolteachers. The rationalised Academic Calendar is to be implemented in all MBOSE affiliated schools of Meghalaya for the session 2020-21. The AAC has been worked out around the Learning Outcomes (LOs) developed by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), New Delhi in 2017 and coded by the DERT in 2020.

  • Urban Development
    MMEGHALAYAEGHALAYA SSTATETATE DEVELOPMENTDEVELOPMENT RREPORTEPORT CHAPTER VIII URBAN DEVELOPMENT 8.1. Introducti on Urbanizati on in Meghalaya has maintained a steady growth. As per 2001 Census, the state has only 19.58% urban populati on, which is much lower than the nati onal average of 28%. Majority of people of the State conti nue to live in the rural areas and the same has also been highlighted in the previous chapter. As the urban scenario is a refl ecti on of the level of industrializati on, commercializati on, increase in producti vity, employment generati on, other infrastructure development of any state, this clearly refl ects that the economic development in the state as a whole has been rather poor. Though urbanizati on poses many challenges to the city dwellers and administrators, there is no denying the fact that the process of urbanizati on not only brings economic prosperity but also sets the way for a bett er quality of life. Urban areas are the nerve centres of growth and development and are important to their regions in more than one way. The current secti on presents an overview of the urban scenario of the state. 88.2..2. UUrbanrban sseett llementement andand iitsts ggrowthrowth iinn tthehe sstatetate Presently the State has 16 (sixteen) urban centres, predominant being the Shillong Urban Agglomerati on (UA). The Shillong Urban Agglomerati on comprises of 7(seven) towns viz. Shillong Municipality, Shillong Cantonment and fi ve census towns of Mawlai, Nongthymmai, Pynthorumkhrah, Madanrti ng and Nongmynsong with the administrati on vested in a Municipal Board and a Cantonment Board in case of Shillong municipal and Shillong cantonment areas and Town Dorbars or local traditi onal Dorbars in case of the other towns of the agglomerati on.

  • Accessing Site Response Through H/V Ratio in Shillong City of Northeast India
    Accessing site response through H/V ratio in Shillong City of northeast India Rajib Biswas1*, Saurabh Baruah2 1 Department of Physics, Tezpur University Tezpur 784028, Assam, India 2 Geoscience Division, CSIR North East Institute of Science and Technology Jorhat 785006, Assam, India *Corresponding author:Email address : [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract: We endeavor to assess site response exploiting ambient noise measurements which we carried out at 70 sites in different parts of Shillong City, one of the seismically active regions. We estimate the spectral ratio from these recordings. The spectral ratios reveal the resonant frequency for Shillong City in the range of 3 to 8 Hz. Short scale spatial variation in the resonant frequencies suggests that there is prominent lateral heterogeneity in the underlying layers. Besides, a non-linear earthquake site response analysis is also attempted using available geotechnical data. A good correlation is observed between site response analysis and HVSR results constrained by wide variation of resonant frequency at short distances. The results are found to be tallying well with the geological data. Key words: Site response, ambient noise, spectral ratio, resonant frequency, HVSR 1 Introduction Over the recent years, earthquake damage has become a real big concern for all including seismologists, civil engineers and policy makers. Although it is a well-known fact that earthquakes never cause causalities but structures do. These structures are basically located on different kinds of soils.
