TIPS TO SCORE HIGH MARKS IN BOARD EXAM – HISTORY COURSE TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE CLASSROOM LEARNING:- Create a positive attitude. You may ask "how does creating a good attitude supposed to boost up my mark?" Well, if you create a good attitude in studying and think positive things about studying, it’s likely that you will start liking a subject that you were really not fond of before. You may also get marks for having a good attitude and for not disrupting a class. Attend your classes regularly. If you attend classes daily instead of skipping them, you will be there to listen to all the lessons the teachers are teaching and won't miss important days. It's likely that you will remember or learn more if you are in class when the teacher is teaching than if you skipped class and then take notes later on. Set goals for yourself. Set goals like 'get good marks in math, science etc' for yourself and then try your hardest to achieve those goals. If you fail once, don't give up, keep trying. Do your homework daily. When you get homework, do it, don't leave it. If you're tempted to watch your favourite TV show instead of do homework, think about it this way: Is your favourite TV show going to help you get into a good university and possibly help you achieve the job of your dreams? If the answer is yes, then by all means watch the show. Homework is important because it gives you practice on the subject that you are learning. Always do your homework. Ask for help when you need it. If you have a question on something, ask for help, don't just leave it behind. You can ask anybody who has knowledge on the subject that you need help with like your parents, teacher, brother or sister. It will most definitely help you in tests and quizzes. Manage your time effectively. It will help you reduce anxiety and focus on studying. If you have a test next week, start studying now. Try not to study at the last minute and cram the night before. Try studying 1 or 2 hours daily and leave a half hour for homework. If you study before you do homework, it will help you do your homework faster and help you understand the subject better. Understand yourself. A big part of academic success is having the right mindset. You have to not only believe in yourself, but also know enough about yourself to know how to achieve that success. Take the time to examine your academic strengths and weaknesses and find ways to capitalize on your strengths while overcoming or minimizing your weaknesses. Finally, understand how you learn things best -- your learning style -- and try and find classes and study methods that best utilize the way you learn. Manage Your Courses. Many students struggle academically, not because they do not have the abilities, but because they simply do not actively manage their courses. You should be an expert on the syllabus of each of your courses, with a strong sense of every major assignment and test- including expectations, requirements, and due dates. If some of your teachers are too vague on their syllabi, t a k e the time to get the detailed information you need to better plan and execute all graded materials for your classes now. Read Actively. Yes, there is quite a bit of reading assigned in schools. Still, part of your job as a student is to not only read all of it - but do so actively rather than passively. Active reading means doing more than just reading. For some people, it means underlining, highlighting, or annotating the materials. Others develop a list of keywords and summarize materials as they read. Still others continually quiz themselves and try to put the information in a different context that helps them better understand it and retain it. Understand the three R's of memory: reception (attentive and observant), retention (review and recite), and recollection (organizing and visualizing). Utilize Every Class. This tip is not just about attending every class -- though attendance is the foundation of it. Not only must you attend every class session, but you should do so with a strategy to succeed. First, you should sit toward the front of the class; studies show that students who sit in one of the first few rows generally achieve better grades than students who sit toward the back. Second, you should get actively involved in the class. Of course, some classes are pure lecture format, but most allow -- and desire -- some level of student participation -- so get involved and speak up. Finally, if you're going to make the effort to attend class, do so with the primary goal of learning -- which means don't be distracted reading other materials, texting, surfing the Net on your laptop, or talking to the student next to you. Take Great Notes. It's not enough to attend and be actively involved in every class -- you need to also listen carefully and take detailed notes. Obviously you need to listen to take great notes, but there's more to listening than just taking notes. Many teachers provide pretty strong clues about the most important elements within a lecture -- even going as far as to say something about a topic's importance for the next test. The best students pick up on these clues. In terms of note-taking, there are any number of systems (Cornell, outlining, mapping, charting, and sentence methods), so the crucial step for you is to find the one system -- including one you develop for yourself -- that works for you. Study Daily and Differently. Every single study of academic success shows that students who commit some time every day to studying -- reading, writing, reviewing, etc. -- perform at a much higher level than those who study in larger chunks, and much better than those who cram. Studying daily builds and increases your knowledge base for the long-term -- assuming you are studying actively rather than passively. Active studying means practicing involving behaviors, such as creating outlines, developing flash cards, participating in study groups, rewriting notes, etc. When possible, take practice quizzes and tests to prepare for the actual examinations. Know Your Teachers. Put another way; make sure your Teacher knows you. It's amazing how many students choose to be anonymous in the classroom. There's nothing wrong with that strategy -- and in some massive lectures halls of thousands of students, it might be your only choice. You don't have to become best buddies with your Teachers -- and we are not advocating the "kiss-up" strategy either.

  • Decentralisation and Urban Primary Health Services: a Case Study of Delhi’S Mohalla Clinics
    RESEARCH and EVALUATION (PEER REVIEWED) Decentralisation and urban primary health services: a case study of Delhi’s Mohalla Clinics Commonwealth Journal of Local Governance Issue 23: 2020 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/ojs/index.php/cjlg Sejal Patel Faculty of Planning CEPT University Ahmedabad 380009 India Email: [email protected]. Priyankita Pant Faculty of Planning CEPT University Ahmedabad 380009 India Email: [email protected] Abstract The Indian political party Aam Aadmi, which assumed power in the city-state of Delhi in 2015, introduced Mohalla Clinics (i.e. neighbourhood clinics) to provide free primary health services for all, as a response to the rising inaccessibility of primary healthcare facilities for the urban poor. These clinics were to be governed through Mohalla Sabhas (i.e. neighbourhood committees), which are instruments of participatory governance within the neighbourhood. The research compares promises and practice for Mohalla Clinics, especially focusing on governance and the politics surrounding it. The authors find that in their current form Mohalla Clinics are limited to providing primary curative healthcare and have shown limited success, although Mohalla Clinic users do save time and expenditure on primary healthcare, and the clinics have led to a more comprehensive form of primary healthcare than in the past. However, Mohalla Clinics are governed in a top-down fashion by the Government of the National Capital Territory-Delhi, and not by urban local bodies or the envisaged neighbourhood committees. As a result, they face problems that may inhibit their functioning in the long term.

  • Bridging Disconnected Knowledges for Community Health
    Bridging Disconnected Knowledges for Community Health AZRA ISMAIL, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA NAVEENA KARUSALA, University of Washington, USA NEHA KUMAR, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA We present a qualitative inquiry of the Mohalla (neighborhood) Clinics introduced by the government of Delhi (India) to improve access to healthcare among the “weakest sections of society”. We share our findings from fieldwork conducted in and around two Mohalla Clinics to understand the provision anduptakeof healthcare services and healthy practices, uncovering factors that obstruct access and adoption. We thus draw on and extend research that examines challenges facing public health infrastructures in underserved contexts by taking a critical feminist approach. Using Haraway’s lens of situated knowledges, we highlight the disconnects present across the partial perspectives of the clinics’ stakeholders, including the healthcare 75 providers, community health workers, and patient groups. We also analyze how these disconnects affect collaborations, negotiations, and contestations around healthcare. Finally, we provide takeaways from our research towards bridging disconnected knowledges by way of redesigning healthcare interventions, revisiting patient empowerment, and redefining the role of frontline health workers as key infomediaries.

In other words, through first and second hand data collection this research project aims to conclude whether or not the Mohalla Clinics have increased the efficiency of the public healthcare system in the national capital. Access to quality healthcare services is the fundamental right of every individual to lead a dignified life and hence, every government must ensure that it caters to its citizens’ healthcare needs. A healthy population also serves as an asset to the nation and comprises a strong human resource capital. Thus, a government that invests in its social sector reaps higher dividend in future in the form of higher productivity, employment, and economic growth. While health broadly includes physical, social and mental well being of a person, at the most primary level, ensuring physical wellness of the population is the most basic requirement that the government must fulfill.

ABSTRACT The urban population in our country is increasing rapidly and represents the 2-3-4-5 syndrome. It is estimated that by 2031, there would be about 600 million people living in urban India. The health of the urban poor is considerably worse off than the urban middle and high income groups and is maybe even worse than the rural population. Even after more than 40 years of Alma Ata’s declaration the main focus on provision of Primary Healthcare based on principles of social inclusion, equity and comprehensiveness has lost some attention in-between. With the abrupt and sudden outbreak of COVID-19, has put the health system into crisis all over the country especially in urban areas.

  • International Seminar on Pandemic and Population Dynamics
    International Seminar on Pandemic and Population Dynamics International Institute for Population Sciences (IIPS) Mumbai, India 18-20 March 2021 i Objective of the Seminar COVID-19 pandemic has an unprecedented global impact on all aspects of population dynamics. Historically, pandemics mostly affected mortality and economy of the countries. However, this pandemic is very unusual, and it has influenced all the components of population dynamics and all segments of the population directly or indirectly. Along with mortality and morbidity issues of COVID19, mobility restrictions imposed for internal and international travel raised the attention of all sections including policymakers. Pandemic led to delays in marriages due to the circumstances of lockdown along with child marriages induced by poverty. There has been a debate on the likely impact of the pandemic on the fertility on account of unmet need of family planning. The pandemic has a larger impact on socio-psychological and economic lives of the people. The return migration induced by the loss of job and the dwindling remittance flow adversely affected families, communities and economy. Loss of jobs and curtailment in the wages, and prolonged stay without any interaction with other family members and friends have caused socio-economic and mental stress. Patients of COVID-19 faced the additional risk of developing mental health problems due to stigma and discrimination from their family members and the community. Even the front-line health care providers faced stressful condition while discharging their COVID-19 duties. It is also widely highlighted in the media that gender inequality and gender discrimination increased during the period.
