Subhadip Senapati; Herur. S. Nagaraja; Tayur N. Guru Row – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Demographically India is in a very unique position compared to many other countries in the world. At present, the under-25 population in India is more than 50% of India's total population, and it is predicted that it would comprise ~25% of the world population within the next decade. This "demographic dividend" provides India with a…

Koul, Anjni; Mehrotra, Alka – School Science Review, 2018
To improve the quality of education, it is important for teachers to have an understanding of action research. Action research is 'learning by doing', which involves identifying a problem, looking for a plan to resolve it, observing how successful it is and, if not satisfied, trying again. Action research helps educators to be more effective in…
