    This was an insightful lesson for me. I am motivated by logic, data, and strategy. It was enlightening to understand the concept of getting buy-in by having an emotional connection to an issue. I might otherwise be the person with too many PP slides and still not clearly transmit my message. The See-Feel-Change process, by John Kotter and Dan Cohen makes a clear point. Enabling people to “feel” can ensure the message being communicated is received. I also identify with the statement, “False urgency can be more insidious and more dangerous even than complacency.” Just today, I was hearing a member talk about being constantly busy, and saying there is just not enough time. I think if they were to “Purge the junk”, as Louis Gerstner said, and…

    India’s education system is divided into different levels including pre-primary, primary elementary, secondary, undergraduate and postgraduate level. Cheney, Ruzzi, and Muralidharan (2005) explain that India employs a 10 + 2 + 3 format which is comprised of 10 years of primary and some secondary school, 2 years of higher secondary school and 3 years (if accepted) of post-secondary education at institutions ranging from universities, colleges and vocational schools. Control and funding for education takes place at the local, state and national level (“India 2009” 2009). Like many other nations, India has sought to improve education at all levels. Since gaining independence in 1947, India has launched a variety of reforms…

    First of all, In India I have completed Bachelor Degree which was much harder and theoretical. The program comprises of 8 semesters with 6 months in each semester, and there were two exams, one is mid-term and other is final. Secondly, Indian study was quite theoretical and exam oriented, there was no practical knowledge provided which can help student to be successful in the real world. The reason behind this is lack of equipment in laboratories, and laboratory itself undeveloped. Lastly, education system still believes in paper work, there was no e-learning tool. Only, major institutions developed e-learning.…

    Internationalisation of higher education is an increasing phenomenon in todays world. In Emily Rauhala’s article, she discussed about the increasing number of students from mainland China aspiring to gain admission into United States (U.S.) schools. However, this increasing competition has pressured some people, be it students, teachers or organisations, to resort to cheating means. Rauhala then argues that the U.S should do something to face the growing internationalisation of higher education in its country. In the next article, Frank Bruni addresses the issue of competition by looking into a wide range of education opportunities found in schools that are elite but not in the Ivy League. He argues that though internationalisation of higher…

This “reality” affect the sub-conscientious of many people with low self-steam and fill the mind of men and women with insecurities about their body images. Plastic surgery appears as an easy solution to this matter, but actually, cosmetic surgery can be just the tip of the iceberg of a more complex issue related with body images problems. Plastic surgery is not always related with a bad thing. For example, facial and body injuries that cause a deformity can be corrected by plastic surgery. Also, plastic surgery can be a necessary in cases of extreme obesity as a solution to safe the patient life. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the number of cosmetic procedures has risen 77 percent in the last decade and 60% of plastic surgery patients are repeat customers (qtd.in Ball). This increasing obsession with body images and looks has spawned a growing number of plastic surgery addicts.

    The terms and conditions for foreign universities to operate in India would be similar to that which are already followed by private universities in India. There are reports claiming that the academicians would be able to get higher salary. However, one shouldn’t forget that if foreign universities operate on the patterns of private university things would become macabre as most of the academicians would work on contract with low wages and insecure jobs. This is the truth of most of the private universities which are operating in India. Government is assuring that foreign universities would not be allowed to transfer their earnings from India to their home land.…

I
have
not

and,
 therefore,
I
propose
that
we
replace
her
old

ancient

system,
her
 culture.
For
if
the
Indians
think
that
all
