This paper is part two of the article entitled, “Dynamic Neuroscientific Systemology: Using Tri–Squared Meta–Analysis and Innovative Instructional Design to Develop a Novel Distance Education Model for the Systemic Creation of Engaging Online Learning Environments.” published in the July–September 2015 issue of i-manager’s Journal of Educational Technology. The aim of this paper is to introduce three novel problems–solving conceptual solutions which are: (1) Neuro-Holistic Learning as an; (2) “Integrated Kinesthetic Approach to Cognitive Learning ”using a (3) “Collaborative Interactive Thought Exchange ” as a dialogue and discussion procedure. The purpose of this original and novel st instructional methodology is to conceptually addresses the four main challenges faced by 21 century African American high school and college students, particularly African American males, who are attempting to succeed in life and in their future professional careers. As an instructional methodology, Neuro-Holistic Learning provides an active solution that addresses the needs of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) who are actively seeking novel methods to aid in the achievement of their respective academic goals, increase student retention, meet their institutional graduation objectives. The results of this dynamic and engaging approach to learning determinedly responds to HBCU high standards of academic excellence and collaborative goals to produce dynamic global citizens and actively responsive alumni.
The aim of this research was to elicit student perceptions and practices regarding the use of social media in the academic setting. More specifically, the objectives of this study were to (1) assess student perceptions of technology use in an academic setting and to rank their preferences; (2) determine which resources and communication options available to students and faculty are preferred by students; (3) determine if those preferences change depending upon the reason for communication; and (4) determine if students want to use social media in an academic setting, and if so, in what ways and for what purposes. Using an electronic survey instrument, undergraduate students at a regionally accredited Mid-South university in the United States were asked to rank their preferences regarding the use of eight different communication resources as part of a college course. In addition, students were asked to identify the social media tools they currently use and for what purpose(s), both in and out of the classroom.The results showed that, overall, Facebook was the most commonly used technology, that students use social media primarily for communicating with friends, and email is the preferred method for sending and receiving class-wide and individual communication, and that a learning management system is the preferred method for submitting class assignments and examinations. However, students generally do not want to use social media for academic activities.
This research article focus is particularly on the usage of internet for preparation of B.Ed projects for the teacher trainees under Kakatiya University region of Telangana State, India. For this, the investigators used the Normative Survey method of research. For data collection, the researchers used the well prepared questionnaire developed by the researchers. The stratified random sampling technique was used for selection of sample of 288 Teacher trainees comprises both male and female from different teaching methodologies. The data is systematically classified and tabulated according to the established objectives of the study. The results revealed that, majority of the teacher trainees are using the internet to identify the social mapping, information of different societies in the world, extract logos, cultural symbols, dance / art / festivals / classical music, to know the diseases, games, sports and physical education etc. And also, the trainees use the internet for case sheet, psychological tests and treatments, school and student development activities and cocurricular activities.
The purpose of this study is to examine the literature from key contemporary authors in the study of leadership who offer insights on the phenomenon of citizen leadership. Additionally, this paper examines two real world examples in which citizen leadership is being demonstrated with regard to strengths and weaknesses, as well as personality traits and motivations. Commonalities exist, and suggest that further study might be useful to determine if citizen leadership can be taught in institutions of higher learning. The intent in this paper is to lay the foundation for future study that qualitatively captures the language patterns in becoming a citizen leader.
The article aims at improving the quality of higher and technical education in India to world class standard. Institutions in knowledge economy are reckoned to be the drivers of development. Indian institutions are making efforts, investing money, appointing professors, students are studying hard but due to the lack of marketing strategy, their efforts do not bring the expected results. Industries do not get new knowledge, new technology from the institutes, and they remain uncompetitive in the global market. Thousands of students with degree in hand are jobless, 25 % of people live below poverty line, India remains a low income economy, with Human Development Index as low as 135. Purpose of the article is to drive deep in the minds of key people, global the winds of change. The institutions are expected to be extrovert, benchmarking the world best institutions. Professors and students have high potential and it can be developed by adopting marketing strategies. The article recommends that we should adopt them without any delay and bring fruits of development to Indian people.
