CBSE Evaluation Criteria has been released for CBSE 10th 12th Results 2020. Result for all students would be released. Here is how the marks would be calculated for the papers that were cancelled.

Central Board of Secondary Education, CBSE has submitted the assessment and evaluation criteria for the cancelled 10th 12h board examinations. The board would be awarding the students based on the papers they have attempted. For the students who have not attempted a minimum of 3 papers (especially students of North East Delhi) the results would be based on internal evaluation. Check complete notice and details here.

For students whose all papers were complete, the marks would be declared basis the performance in the examination For students of classes 10 and 12 who have appeared in more than 3 subjects, the marks for the pending subject would be based on the average marks obtained in the best three subjects For students who have appeared only for 3 subjects, average marks on the basis of the three attempted subjects would be used for determining the marks of the pending exams that were cancelled For the Class 12 students whose only 1 or 2 papers could be conducted (true for students from North East Delhi), their results would be declared basis the performance in the appeared subjects as well as the performance in the internal/practical/project assignment. These students would have an option to appear for the examination at a later date. The results of all such students, however, would be announced along with the results of all the students.

For CBSE Class 10 students (barring students from North East Delhi), all core exams of 5 subjects were completed. The CBSE Class 10 results of the students, hence would be basis the performance in the examinations attempted. All the other examinations were cancelled this year and as such the board would not be grading students on those papers.

Results would be declared by the board by July 15, 2020 for all CBSE Class 12 students, irrespective of the number of subjects students had appeared for, so as to facilitate the admissions to higher educational instituted. Marks and option to appear for the examinations at the later date would depend on the way their result is calculated.

Students who appeared for all their papers

Most of the students of CBSE Class 12 had already appeared for the papers they had opted for. For all such students, the marks would be awarded basis the performance in the examinations attempted. All such students would not get an option to appear for the examination at a later date. Their results would be binding.

Students who appeared three or more papers and 1 or 2 subjects were pending

For such students, the board would be awarding students as per the average of the best three performed subjects. For instance, say a student appeared for English, Maths, Accountancy and Economics and the Business Studies paper was pending. Now, the student scored (out of 100), 75 in English, 45 in Maths, 85 in Accountancy and 90 in Economics, then the student’s marks in English, Accountancy and Economics would be considered for calculating the average marks in Business Studies. All such students would have an option of appearing for the board exam for the subject that was cancelled when it is conducted by CBSE at a later date. Students can also choose to accept the average marks awarded by the board. However, should the student choose to opt for and appear in the examination at the later date, the marks thus obtained by the students in the examination would be considered final (even if they are less than the average score that was awarded).

Students who appeared for only three other papers

For all such students, the marks would be awarded on the basis of the average score of the three subjects appeared for by the student. For example, say the students appeared for English, Physics and Chemistry and secured (out of 100) 75, 80 and 80 marks respectively, the marks for the remaining two subjects would be given on the basis of the average of these three subjects. All such students too would have an option of appearing for the cancelled papers at the later date. Again, should the students opt to appear for the examination at the later date, the marks thus obtained would be considered final – irrespective.

Students who appeared for only 1 or 2 papers (Students from North East Delhi)

For such students, the marks would be a combination of the average of the performance in the subjects the students appeared in as well as their performance in internal assessment (practical, project, etc.). These students too would be allowed to appear for the examination at a later date to improve their performance.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE

No exams for Class 10 students would be conducted. The results thus calculated and released would be finale. CBSE Class 12 students would have an option to appear for the exams whose marks were awarded based on averages as detailed above. In such a case, the performance in the paper appeared would be considered. CBSE has not shared when the students need to share their choice for optional.It can be assumed the CBSE may provide the students the option to appear for the examination once the results are declared.

CBSE Class 10, 12 Board Exams 2020 which were scheduled for July have been cancelled. The board presented the evaluation criteria to the Supreme Court, which has in turn accepted and allowed CBSE to release the same. The notification detailed above would be released on cbse.nic.in by end of day today. ICSE Board, too, decided to cancel the pending exams. The evaluation criteria, as per CISCE Counsel, would be slightly difference from CBSE and students may be given an option too. The evaluation criteria of ICSE board would be released in a weeks’ time.

According to Exam Controller Sanyam Bhardwaj, the exams which were pending due to the COVID-19 situation have been cancelled.

“Results will now be declared following an alternate assessment scheme. Class 12 students will get an option to appear for exams later to improve their score. However, for students who chose for sit for exams, their marks in the exams will be treated as the final score,” Bhardwaj said in an official notification.

“Class 10 students will not get the chance to appear for improvement exam. Their result declared by the board shall be treated final,” he added.

The CBSE on Thursday had informed the top court that the Board has decided to cancel the remaining Class X and XII board examinations in light of the rising number of COVID cases across the country.

‘Conducive time’ will be decided by the Centre General Tushar Mehta told the Supreme Court that for now, the exams that were scheduled from July 1 to July 15 have been cancelled and will be conducted at a conducive time for Class XII students. The ‘conducive time’ will be decided by the Centre’

ICSE board told the Supreme Court that they too were agreeable with the CBSE decision to cancel the board exams for students of Classes X and XII. The state of Maharashtra, on behalf of ICSE, had earlier informed the Bombay HC that they will be unable to conduct the exams for the students this year.

ICSE has however clarified to the Supreme Court that they will not be providing any student with an option to appear for the exam at a later date and the results for all students in Class X and XII for the ICSE board will be declared on the basis of their marks in the internal assessment.

The CBSE class XII exams had started on February 15 and were to conclude on April 3. The class X exams had started on February 21 and were to end on March 29. However, the nationwide lockdown to contain the spread of the coronavirus (COIVD-19) pandemic came into force from March 25.

No exams for students of all UNIVERSITIES

 

Union HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ has asked the University Grants Commission (UGC) to revisit the guidelines issued earlier for intermediate and terminal semester examination, and the academic calendar

Exams for final year students in universities and higher education institutions which were to be held in July are likely to be cancelled in view of the spike in COVID-19 cases, and the commencement of the new session is likely to be deferred to October, according to officials.

Union HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ has asked the University Grants Commission (UGC) to revisit the guidelines issued earlier for intermediate and terminal semester examination, and the academic calendar.

According to officials, a panel, set up by UGC and headed by Haryana University vice-chancellor R C Kuhad, has been asked to revisit the guidelines and come up with alternative options. The revised guidelines are expected to be announced by the higher education regulator within a week’s time.

“The ministry has made it clear that the foundation for revisited guidelines shall be the health and safety of students, teachers staff. The expert committee is of the view that the examinations due in July in most universities as per the revised academic calendar be cancelled and marks for final examination be awarded based on the past performance of each student.

“Students who are not happy with the final marks being given to them based on previous examinations, can be given a chance to improvise their scores by taking examinations later when the pandemic subsides,” a senior official said.

“Similarly, the commencement of the new academic session, which was earlier planned for already enrolled students from August and freshers from September, is also likely to be deferred to October. The deliberations are on and final guidelines in this regard will be announced soon. However, any guidelines framed will be subject to review depending upon the COVID-19 situation,” the official added.

Universities and schools across the country have been closed since March 16 when the central government announced a countrywide classroom shutdown as one of the measures to contain the COVID-19 outbreak.

A nationwide lockdown was announced on March 24, which came into effect the next day. While the government has eased several restrictions, schools and colleges continue to remain closed.

The UGC had in April formed two committees to deliberate on issues arising due to the lockdown to avoid academic loss and take appropriate measures for the future of students.

One of the committees, led by Haryana University Vice-Chancellor R C Kuhad, was tasked with looking into ways of conducting exams in universities amid the lockdown and work on an alternate academic calendar.

The second committee, formed to suggest measures to improve online education, was led by Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) Vice-Chancellor Nageshwar Rao.

Based on the recommendations of the two panels, the HRD Ministry had on April 29 announced the guidelines recommending the exams for final semester students be conducted in July.

The commission had said that the universities may decide whether to conduct exams online or offline keeping in view the support system available with them and ensuring a fair opportunity to all students.

The UGC had recommended that intermediate semester students may either be evaluated on the basis of internal assessment or in states where the COVID-19 situation has normalised, exams be conducted in July only.

The commission had also said the new academic session for freshers may begin in universities from September and for already enrolled students in August while the admission process may begin in universities from August 1

However, due to spike in coronavirus cases, various states recommended cancellation of final year exams. A few states like Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh have already announced their plans in this regard.

The cancellation is also likely to put to rest the standoff between DU administration and students and a section of teachers over the university’s decision to conduct Open Book Examination (OBE) online for final year students. PTI GJS GJS NSD NSD

Rasputin: The death that changed history

Mystics and holy men, some call them the voices of gods while some refer to them as shams and con-men who try to trick the gullible people of society. Whatever be the truth, the fact is that they have been influential in shaping history throughout the world since time immemorial. These kinds of people often gain a large popularity, are hailed as having the power of gods and yet like every other person, have skeletons on their closets. One such man who changed the course for the Russian monarchy is Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin, a Russian mystic and self-proclaimed holy man who befriended the family of Emperor Nicholas II, the last monarch of Russia, and gained considerable influence in late imperial Russia.

Born to a peasant family in rural Siberia, Rasputin lived an obscure life till adolescence and might have continued to do so had he not converted himself to the Russian Orthodox church. After being inspired by many of the wandering humble monks of his generation, Rasputin moved aimlessly from one holy site to another. He spent years of his life on pilgrimages across Russia, and along his travels he amassed a large following due to his charismatic and magnetic presence. He was even believed to have had the power of divination and healing. And despite his repetitive acts of petty theft, heavy drinking and over promiscuous nature with the ladies, he was hailed as a holy monk across Siberia, and he gained the attention of both the powerful orthodox clergymen and common people.  Once he finally reached St. Petersberg, he used his innate charisma and gained popularity and connections to win the favour of the imperial family’s spiritual advisor and soon wormed his way up and was introduced to the Tsar Nicholas II. He like all other “holy men” before and after him had the ability and know-how to milk every opportunity to the fullest. Like every opportunist mystic in the world, he researched about his targets and found out that the Tsar and his wife were devout believers of the supernatural and mysticism.  Rasputin cemented his control in the Tsar’s court by performing a “miracle”. The young heir to the throne had a disease known as hemophilia, a life-threatening blood disease. He refused to let the doctors administer anything to the heir and when Alexie’s health got better, he was hailed as a mystic with supernatural powers. What actually happened was that the doctors had prescribed him aspirin which worsens the hemophilia’s effect in the body, thus it seemed that the young heir got better. Thus, to cement his place of power, he proclaimed that should he die or be deserted the royal crown and their son would also disappear. Due to his increasing popularity in court and his ill habits of theft and skirt-chasing, the orthodox had begun to hate him and decided to have him killed prevent his further acts of corruption to the royal family and to stabilize the kingdom, not taking into account that to the public Rasputin was hailed as the public’s hero. In 1916, a group of nobles led by Felix Yusupov, tried to kill Rasputin by lacing his pastries with cyanide or so they thought as one of their co-conspirators had changed the poison with something harmless out of pity for Rasputin. As that plan failed, Yusupov shot Rasputin at point blank range, which again Rasputin miraculously survived and punched away his assailant and ran away. However, the group of noblemen gave chase and shot Rasputin dead and dumped his body in the Malaya Nevka river. However rather than stabilizing the kingdom, his death enraged the peasantry who were already on a boil from decades long political tensions within the area, saw this as the tipping point and took down the Tsar’s regime. As Rasputin prophesised his death was soon followed by the royal families. Thus, ended the tale of a monk who reshaped the Russian history.

SEX EDUCATION- still a taboo?

So here’s another theme one should be concerned about. Yes, whether you mention it as an orgasm or simply sex, this education is actually far broader than that. According to me, the lack of sex education results in Rape, sexual abuse, sexual assaults, and many such issues. Whenever we hear someone mumbling the word sex, we often become slightly uncomfortable and uneasy. A recent research from Columbia University’s Sexual Health Initiative to Foster Transformation (SHIFT) project implies that comprehensive sex education protects students from sexual assault even after high school. A survey by researchers at the Harvard Graduate School of Education’s Making Caring Common initiative found that 65 percent of young-adult respondents wished they had talked about relationships at school. At some places when students study the chapter of Reproduction in biology, they are advised to operate different batches in coaching centers for boys and girls. This shows how uncomfortable and delusional students are about this issue.

What is sex education?

Sex education is high-quality teaching and learning about a broad variety of topics related to sex and sexuality. Various other aspects include safe sex, age of consent, reproductive health, emotional relations, etc. The increasing incidents of teenage pregnancy, in the mid 20th century, led to the introduction of sex education. Also, the eruption of an increasing number of cases in AIDS/ HIV led as a curtain-raiser towards sex education. Country like India has a massive population along with more no.of cases of sexual abuse, teen pregnancy.

According to SIECUS, the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States, 93% of grown-ups researched support for sexuality education in high school, and 84% supported it in junior high school. In fact, 88% of the parents of junior high school students and 80% of parents of secondary school students conclude that sex education in school makes it simpler for them to talk to their adolescents about sex.

Being sex-positive.

This may take you to various meanings.

  • No more feeling ashamed and embarrassed talking about sex or sexuality. 
  • Behaving toward straight, bisexual, gay and lesbo the same.
  • No more tagging sex as a dirty thing.
  • Promoting sex education for safe intercourse.
  • Accepting one’s body.

The latest report by UNESCO on comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) points out the urgent need for imparting this education to young people to help them lead healthy and sexually satisfying lives.  Admitting how you were born, yes, of course, you are a result of intercourse.  How to be sex-positive:

  1. Undirty The Word ‘Sex’– Why treat it with shame? It’s a positive emotion so it has to be dealt with positivity. There’s nothing wrong about not being a virgin until it wasn’t forced.
  2. Treat ‘sex’ with respect– Making love is not a crime. Treating the thought of sex with respect can also change to help you being sex-positive.
  3. Reach out to your friends and discuss– This does not mean to ask random people about their intercourse. Maybe it would leave a negative impact. Talking and sharing ideas with dear ones will actually broaden the thinking about ‘sex’. 
  4. ‘No’ to dirty jokes– There’s always a difference between what sounds good and what’s dirty. Vulgarity should be eliminated and healthy sex jokes should be appreciated.

Mutuality and Maturity play a vital role in this education.

People usually talk about rapes and the root cause of such crimes. Of course, we can’t control this but we can educate the upcoming generations and broaden their circle of thinking. Proper sex education helps in dealing with such principles.

Success comes from hard-work

We all want success. Every person you see around yourself, be it your mom, your dad, your siblings or friends. Everyone strives for success and would love to have it. 

It is one of those things that will never be enough to satisfy a person. We all somewhere want that constant dose of dopamine in life. 

Success comes in various forms. It can be in the form of money, fame, love, respect etc. any kind of achievement that one has worked for can be counted as true success. Unfortunately, success doesn’t come easy. 

We all know the majority of people who live in this world are unsuccessful. And often we get upset over failing at something. Whether it is a relationship, or a job, or any type of task, failure always makes us upset. 

But while being upset about something is natural and understandable, it often makes us ignore the bright sides of it. There is always something to learn from your unsuccessful attempts which we usually forget about and do not pay attention to because we are too contained by the depression that comes with it. But if that lesson is learnt you can not only have a better attempt next time but it also matures you know broadens your knowledge. 

Let us look at an ant as an example. An ant is a very persistent insect, it may fall from a wall a hundred times but still doesnt give up. It continues to try to get over it’s obstacles and eventually after many many attempts it gets its win. We should take inspiration from this amazing insect, even after failing numerous times it continues to put effort towards it and never gives up. While us humans are no way near like that, most of us quit after a few unsuccessful attempts and then give excuses. 

Success is an old school building. There is no elevator that would get you to the top. In order to succeed in any field. We have to put continuous effort and climb the ladders. Which is always the toughest part as it takes a tremendous amount of courage and determination to keep trying even after a few unsuccessful attempts. Any successful man in the world has worked tremendously hard for it for years and each one of them failed many times as well but the difference is they kept trying. 

 Here are some of the key points you will need in order to succeed-

1- Be consistent- Brushing your teeth for 1 hr one day would barely make any difference but brushing them for 2 minutes for 30 days will make a way more significant difference. 

2- Learn from your mistakes- Your mistakes are your stepping stones to success, do not stop at one. Learn from them and keep trying. 

3- Hard-Work- Do not be lazy about your goals. If you want to achieve them, the only way is working hard. Success does not land in your balcony ,you have to go and get it 

Turn these three tips into habits and eventually, slowly but surely, you will achieve your goals.

Sanskrit:The new language for computer programming!

Sanskrit is the world’s strongest logical language, one of the oldest language and it was one of the major languages of India but now is a minority language. It’s known as the perfect language and is also known as mother of all modern languages. It’s the language of Gods in India.

It’s an Indic language and holds a significant value till date all over the world, our vedic scripts were written in Sanskrit and there was a time when Sanskrit was even used as a language during conversations, Sanskrit is the official language of Uttarakhand and is very close to every Indian’s heart. Even some of the major texts of Jainism and Buddhism have been written in Sanskrit.

Though it is being understated now and its use is decreasing day by day but experts say it can be the new language which will be needed in technological advances. The structure of Sanskrit is very logical and the precision it offers cannot be matched by any other language due to which it is considered as a god language for computer programming.

Sanskrit is one of the most ancient languages and it is said that the earliest literature was written in Sanskrit. Initially Sanskrit was said to have no traces in the form of written manuscripts, it was widely spoken, it was around 250 years back that people started writing in Sanskrit in their own respective script, hence Sanskrit scripts have been written in various languages and hence Sanskrit is said to have no official (default) script.

Sanskrit is one of the most phonetically sound languages and it has said to improve one’s learning e of Sanskrit skills and speech, many speech therapists make use of Sanskrit while working with different clients and  also teachers include Sanskrit as part of school curriculum as it is said to improve brain functioning and has many other benefits.

It’s one of the most sacred languages in the Indian culture and one mostly gets to hear recitations in Sanskrit during holy rituals or wedding ceremonies and it is said to have a an soothing and calming effect on our minds due to the vibrations it produces. In India many schools have abided to teaching Sanskrit as the third language in their school curriculum which is an advantageous move as people have slowly withered away from their mother language and it is going unappreciated, especially with the new generation, most of them are clueless about the importance of Sanskrit and the opportunities it has to offer.

According to many experts Sanskrit is the best language for computer programming and also for artificial intelligence, due to its precision and logical base and also because of certain characteristics it poses as a good option as it can be converted into a machine language and can enhance the working of artificial intelligence. This was stated by Rick Briggs who published his paper in 1985, he was an associate scientist working for NASA and he stated that the strict grammar rules of Sanskrit allow for easy conversion and reduces ambiguity when it comes to the use of the language.

Sanskrit as a language holds a lot of value be it one of the best languages for computer programming or one of the most logical languages to be learnt. It is somewhere or the other going unnoticed in its own country and needs to be uplifted by us!

“Stop Worrying and Start Living” – Dale Carnegie – Book review

Dale Carnegie’s how to stop worrying and start living so the first big idea is ask yourself what’s the worst thing that can happen I remember the first year in college constantly worrying about my grades what was I getting to do if I got a B+ rather than an a well surely my life would be over and that i would never amount to anything in life like that was seriously the thought process browsing my 17 year old head now fast-forward five years.

How to Stop Worrying & Start Living
Carnegie tells a story of this guy in World War 2 who’s stuck in a submarine and basically knows that he’ll be dying in the next few hours and he sits there thinking about all the stuff he used to worry about at home and how absurd it was and makes a promise to never waste his life again like that if he survives now that might be hard to resonate with so let me give you a more contemporary example people are having their heads chopped off every single day every single day the only reason it’s not you is because you are born in a certain place. They weren’t that’s it now going back to my friend I told him look here’s what I want you to do every day you will start your morning by watching somebody’s head being chopped off and then you’ll go about the rest of the day.
He started freaking out about how he can’t do that and how he doesn’t like blood and whatever now here’s the thing. I know that’s really crass and morbid but I don’t care if you don’t worry about stuff great you don’t have to watch anything but if you’re worried about stupid all the time you have a disease so you either treat yourself or you never ask about how you can stop worrying again ever. Here’s what I will guarantee you if you start your day by watching someone else have their head chopped off nothing and I mean absolutely nothing could possibly happen to you for the rest of the day that you could get pissed off about and not feel like a complete retard yes when you’ve seen someone’s head chopped off you will have a weird feeling inside you as soon as you start to complain about how you deserve to be paid more at your job or what you’re going to do now since you bought a B+ rather than an A or how your washer is broken you’ll realize that.

If the guy had been given the chance to live and wear that same dirty shirt for the rest of his life without ever being able to wash it he would have been the happiest man alive realize the absurdity of it all the third big idea staying busy now I don’t mean the average busy person actually those are the people that worry the foremost the guy who works 12-hour days then comes home and watches Fox all night worrying about whether some guy can marry another guy or about all the foreigners who will come and take his job you know because he’s the only one entitled to that job I’m not talking about that kind of busy here’s how I like to stay busy read a book that I like go to the gym with my girlfriend play around on the piano and compose cook amazing food work on a project. I’m passionate about now here’s what happens when you do that your brain can’t think of two things at one time it just doesn’t have that capability you can try right now if you want you can’t think of your broken washing machine and at the same time think of how much you love playing soccer it’s not how your brain works so the best way to get rid of the negative thoughts in your head is to actually start putting positive thoughts in there get busy with what you love and your brain simply won’t even have the power to stress . Finally, a question that really resonated with me here’s what you’re going to do in your life you’re going to work and worry your entire life so you can gather a bunch of stuff like your house and all the stupid.

If you’re lucky after 50 years of all that worry and stress all of your stuff could be worth 1,000,000 dollars here’s the question would you sell your legs for a million dollars let me ask you this would you sell your legs for a billion dollars I wouldn’t and you probably wouldn’t either would you sell your arms for another billion dollars no there you go you have already got something that you simply value at two billion dollars actually hopefully more but you do not need to be all Zen you could be a greedy capitalist like me and understand this now here’s what you’re going to do you’re going to ignore and not utilize something worth two billion dollars because you’re too busy worrying and stressing about the things that might amount to 1 million dollars at the end of your life oh and you’ll be considered really lucky if that happens by the way all right.

So, I don’t know if you’re seeing how crazy that is but that’s kind of like having a huge mansion a personal jet every single car you ever wished for and not using and enjoying those things because you’re too worried about at some point having the ability to shop for a Corolla that’s crazy and sad you have already got everything that you value at billions and billions of dollars so stop ignoring wasting and treating it like for hours and days so you can worry and bitch about how your phone bill went up from a hundred dollars to a hundred and twenty.

“Soap VS Sanitizer – What Experts Believe?”

Today’s is a time when we humans are living with a pandemic which is growing all over the world. People are getting infected and dying in numbers and it’s count seeing no end. This virus has been named as Corona or Covid-19. This virus infects a person leading him/ her to high fever, cough and lack in breathing. This surely affects the respiratory system of humans, and thus spreads. Since we know that these viruses do require a host to survive, and when they get so, they just multiply. This is a virus which can spread through touch, so mostly advise to maintain a distance of 1 metre or more while talking with a person. But What doctors are so concerned with is the fact that these viruses are going through mutations and are mutating as they spread from one person to another. This surely is a sign of concern, this not only changes the DNA of the virus but also can make it difficult to track  the presence of the virus, since the technique must not be able to catch the virus, as it has evolved, thus the virus may be present even if any individual test negative. So what can be done to prohibit and remain safe from this deadliest virus. 

Doctors advise to maintain a distance of 1 metre or more while talking, use a handkerchief while sneezing or coughing and frequently wash hands with soap or sanitizer. But one of the frequently asked questions by patients and other individuals is which is better Soap or Sanitizer

So to test  and investigate the effectiveness of these  two and figure out which is better, did an experiment. They included and worked on  two scenarios. 

  1. Washing hands with sanitizer 
  2. Washing hands with the soap. 

Doctors in the microbiology lab experimented the effectiveness of E. Coli bacteria. They rubbed their hands with the bacteria and then  hands were runned on the plates, thus leaving hand impacts which were filled with bacteria. Then they washed their hands with the sanitizer but a very small quantity. Then again with a new simple but with a heavy quantity of sanitizer and the same results were recorded. The second scenario was to rub hands in E. Coli and wash hands with soap. Similar experiment was done, first washing hands for merely 10 seconds and second time for more than 30 seconds.The plates were then set to rest for 24 hours and then results were recorded. 

The results were really amazing, hand sanitizer with much of a quantity removed almost all the bacteria than with the little quantity. Same was the case with the soap, the time period of rubbing hands for. More than 30 seconds helped remove more of the bacteria than just running and washing away. But the interesting fact to record was that sanitizer is able to remove almost all the bacteria and clean our hands as compared to soap which helps some of bacteria still intact with the patch. 

“So sanitizer as per experts, doctors and scientists are much more effective as compared to soaps. It’s better to use sanitizer anyway since every drop of it remains untouched and pure and thus is an effective way out to stay away from bacteria and virus and thus stay safe

CHEESE- introduction and production

Cheese is a most commonly used dairy product which is a product derived from milk. Cheese is available in the market in various textures, forms and flavors. It is basically the product of coagulation of milk protein, casein. Cheese is said to be a concentrated form of two major products i.e. Milk protein (casein) and Milk fat. Combination of these two results in the production of cheese which is very much liked by everyone nowadays.
The other ingredients of cheese besides milk are a particular, selective strain of a bacterium, a milk clotting agent and some amount of sodium chloride (to give a salty flavor).
Various types of cheese are present in the market which is basically due to the variation in its basic constituents. No new ingredient is actually added in forming the new type of cheese. Just a basic variation in the already present ingredients can help. Sometimes there is a need to add new additional ingredients which give rise to completely different variety of cheese. It has also been observed and noted that the change in any environmental conditions surrounding the manufacture and subsequent ripening of cheese also affects its manufacturing and thus type.
BASIC CHEESE MANUFACTURING PROCESS –
The basic cheese manufacturing process consists of 3 main stages – Curdling, Curd processing and ripening. All different varieties of cheese can be manufactured at different levels of manufacturing means some cheese can be made in the first step while some needs all the 3 steps to completely occur.

  1. CURDLING –
    It is the first and the most important step in the production of cheese. In this step, there is a separation of milk into solid curds and liquid whey. Usually, this step is achieved by the addition of acidifying (souring) agent in milk and adding the enzyme RENNET. The acidification can also be achieved by directly adding some acidic agent such as vinegar. But most commonly for this acidification purpose, a starter bacteria is used which converts milk sugars into lactic acid and without even the addition of any acidic substance, the acidification is achieved. The common starter bacteria which are used are from Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, or Streptococcus families. Swiss cheese requires the addition of Propionibacter Sherman, which is used to produce Carbon dioxide bubbles during ageing resulting in the hole like structure of Swiss cheese.
    Some fresh cheeses are curdled only the acidification process, but most cheeses require the addition of enzyme, rennet which sets the cheese as strong and rubbery. It also allows the curdling step at low acidity.
  2. CURD PROCESSING
    Till this step, the cheese has now set into a very moist gel. Some soft types of cheeses are essentially complete in the first step. They are just drained, salted and packaged. But from other cheeses, which are not been prepared in the single step, the curd is cut into small cubes which allows the remaining water to drain off from the individual pieces of curd itself.
    Some harder cheeses are then heated at a normal temperature which deliberately forces out the whey from the cut curds. This step changes the taste and flavor of the cheese. Apart from providing a salty flavor to cheese, salting has some other benefits also like it prevents cheese from spoiling, it drains out moisture and also it is used in firming he cheese’s texture in an interaction with its proteins. Different cheeses have different processes of getting texture.
  3. RIPENING
    Most of the cheeses are already prepared in the last step, some of which are not prepared yet are of harder varieties and more rubbery in texture which is completely attained in this step. In this step, the cheeses are left to rest under controlled conditions. This step is also known as AGING. This step may take several years to complete. As a cheese ages, the microbes and the enzymes secreted by them transform its texture and also intensify the flavor. This transformation is more of a result of the breakdown of casein proteins and milk fat into a complex mixture of amino acids, amines and fatty acids.

Earth’s Eight lost continent Zealandia found

An underwater continent whose existence was discovered 25 years ago named as Zealandia by a geophysist in the year 1995. It ranges about nearly 2 million square miles. It is located at 3500 feet under south Pacific Ocean. The land had been submerged years ago and scientists found it in the year 2017 and it took them nearly 3 years to figure it’s breadth.

Scientists from GNS science in Newzealand officially announced the range and size if the continent accurately. They had also launched the map of our eight continent. “We’ve made these maps to provide an accurate, complete, and up-to-date picture of the geology of the New Zealand and southwest Pacific area — better than we have had before,” Nick Mortimer, who led the work, said.

Map of earth’s Eight continent

We can’t survive there because only 6% of continent lies above the sea level and rest submerged under the sea. It is predicted that this continent is 85 million years old. The person coined the term for eight continent said that “The reason I came up with this term is out of convenience,” Luyendyk said. “They’re pieces of the same thing when you look at Gondwana. So I thought, ‘Why do you keep naming this collection of pieces as different things?'”

How are continents formed?

Pangea splited into two halves namely Laurasia and Gondwana which eventually breakers into Europe,Asia, North America and Africa, Antarctica, South America and Australia respectively. These continents rearranged themselves and formed a structure that we see in our maps. In the mean time this division caused some of the land to mere itself underwater 30 million years ago. The rearrangement of the continents made one of the continent to merge in water. Untill 2017 Zealandia was considered to be a microcontinent because its range was unclear. After discovering it’s size now it has been able to fit into the features and descriptions of a continent.

If we could pull the plug on the world’s oceans, it would be quite clear that Zealandia stands out,” he told science news in 2017 adding, “If it wasn’t for the ocean level, long ago we’d have recognized Zealandia for what it was a continent.”

We may have a chance to live underwater if we scientists could research there. Government can rather spend it’s money on underwater survival rather than spending it on space and research. Research where you live before you leave. Hope someday someone will find a way to live underwater when there is no life above the ground.

Motivational Factors that Will Encourage Student to Study Well

Climbing a mountain does not happen at once. More than 40% of high school students are chronically disengaged from their educational institutions as reported by The National Research Council.

Most probably, these children don’t realize the importance of learning, especially education . Taking under consideration it’s impossible to continue the tutorial trip without passing the initial stage, school, many modern kids fail to succeed at the first stages. It is difficult to revive later.

Visualize Yourself Taking Action
Numerous researches discovered that visualization features a strong, positive impact on the training process. Even in sports, it makes a difference to the performance of athletes. Students can be compared to those athletes as well, so it might be a good idea to visualize things for them too.

Interactive content will do:

In-class PPT presentations
Photographs and images
Videos and documentaries
Games
After-class practice
A teacher should dedicate longer to attending theatres, museums, and cinemas to let the scholars imagine particular scenarios. Vivid life examples will help to know the topic better.

As for the scholar , it’s necessary to pretend you’re already taking certain actions (e.g., writing the last page of a search paper, collecting study materials, getting enrolled in the dream college, etc.) This technique assists in accomplishing things on your list.

Remember: Even Smallest Actions Add up
Many times in our life, we can get bogged down being sick and tired of things happening around us.

Working on 10,000-word research or composition could be one among the explanations for facing stress. No teacher assigns such large assignments on the submission eve. It means every student features a few weeks or maybe months to organize the paper. Thus, if you come up with 5-10 sentences per day, you’ll manage to end the project before the deadline. Postponing it to the last minute will not help.

Right, every action adds up to accomplishing a big , long-term goal.

The best thing a student can do trying to make a strong dissertation is handling 500 words a day . If you finish earlier, it is still better than being late. Late papers result in F in 90% cases.

Writing 500 words a day will cause you to complete the project in only 20 days, and it’s but one month! Even if you propose to go away weekends aside, which will do. Remember: worry disappears in the face of action.

Keep Telling Yourself It Will Not Last Forever
Knowing that at some point the “nightmare” will end, and you’ll obtain far more freedom may be a perfect motivation. Who knows: perhaps, at some point you’ll become a manager in some cool firm, which can cause you to tell people what to try to to , and not the other way around .

Focusing and Keeping Things in Mind
Start re-reading the study materials 3 times from today. An old and really wise teacher shared this hint with us a while ago. We managed to find out some historical episodes by memory and even improved the knowledge of some languages.

You should not go into every detail – the photographic memory will help you to scan the letters and store them somewhere deep inside your head. And yes – ask questions whenever you revise the fabric and find out things that sound weird to you.

Break down the Readings Classes like World’s History or English Literature demand students to read long swathes of content. It would be easier to review by dividing the whole material into chunks of one page (approximately 500 words). Put down at least 5 questions related to the discussed topic and ask your tutor or experts to answer.

A better idea to organize the things would be involving the flash cards in the educational process. The sooner you get the answers, the sooner you will master the topic.

Cooperate in Teams
Get together with your peers to speed up the learning process. Brainstorm in groups to gather sources and find replies to the essential questions. It will also help to improve communication skills, analysis, and critical thinking.

It is impossible to write down huge volumes during one evening. Besides, the teachers shouldn’t overwhelm students with multiple homework assignments, so it’s okay to urge professional help if your teacher breaks the rule.

Class 12 boy handles bodies of coronavirus patients

Introduction

The spread of Corona Virus has resulted in World-wide lockdown and India too has implemented lock down in all its states for last few months. This led to closing of the major industries like automobiles, infrastructure, tourism, manufacturing etc. which are biggest stakeholders of organized and unorganized sectors in India. Most of the people working in these sectors are daily age workers who do not have fixed income or benefits but solely relies on everyday wages. The closure of all these sectors has led to one of the biggest crisis which we will face in future. Here’s an article on class 12 boy handling bodies of coronavirus patients to earn living.

About

In a hunger for job to ease living, 12 class boy haunted a dangerous job of handling bodies of corona patients. A class 12 student, wants  to study medicine, to supply for his siblings’ school fees and his mother’s treatment he is doing this job. Chand Mohammad’s mother suffers from a thyroid disorder and needs her medicines urgently, but the family doesn’t have enough means for the treatment. They are barely making their ends for living . As his elder brother lost his job at a merchandise store in Krishna Nagar market during the lockdown. Chand Mohammad is from Seelampur in Northeast Delhi. He and his family has been surviving on ration provided by neighbors. And whatever his brother could earn doing odd jobs. 

Where Chand joined for work?

 A week ago, Chand joined a corporation as a sweeper at the Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Narayan Hospital in New Delhi. The job requires him to handle bodies of corona patients. The shift is from 12 noon to eight pm. He took this work after he got exhausted from all options to seek out work. Though this is a dangerous job, as he is at a better risk of getting engaged with the infection, but he want the work and earn. His family, including three sisters, two brothers and fogeys, is struggling for living. Right now, they had food and medicines for my mother. On many days, they cooked food only once. There’s an opportunity that they may fight the virus, but they cannot run away from hunger. Chand’s three sisters are still in school. He, himself is in 12 standard and have to pay the varsity fee. They need money to study. He hopes that his first salary will set things right to a particular extent. He read namaz before he exits his home for work. He even have faith within the almighty. God will look after  him and will surely show him the way. 

How he is handling bodies of coronavirus patients?

 Chand, who wants to study medicine, says But what bothers the youngster is that employees like him who are into high-risk jobs don’t get any insurance from the private companies employing them. “The most dangerous job within the world immediately handling bodies of corona patients  pays around Rs 17,000 per month. Every day, Chand handles around two to three bodies along side another sweeper. They are required to place the bodies inside the ambulance, take it to the crematorium and put it down on a stretcher once they reach the crematorium.They also have to remove all wearing the private protection equipment, which is extremely heavy. It limits movement and suffocates an individual. During this heat, one can finish up bathing in their own sweat. 

An incident he shared with media

 On Tuesday evening, Chand handled a body on his own. There was no helper with him, So, it took him a while. He gathered his breath at the top when he heard, a doctor saying the body had been lying within the mortuary for a month which nobody claimed it. Once he tried taking the body down from the ambulance, the duvet came off and a few liquid spilled on his thighs. As he is desperate to get some money, Chand has approached people giving money on low interest rates and he took his Aadhaar card and voter card, hoping to urge some money on low interest rates. His family is worried about his safety. Perhaps they also know that this is the only way for them to survive at the present. His parents inquire about his work daily. They pray for his safety. His mother cries tons daily, but he make her understand. Chand takes a shower as soon as he reaches home and keeps a distance from his family members. He is taking all precautions.For now, he would like some help in order that the family remains afloat. But we may never know what is in our destiny! 

Conclusion

 As this pandemic has made many people to suffer a lot. They are unable to have one time meal. Many don’t have money, they have migrated.We should help poor and needy as much as we can. This boy Chand Mohammad has to opt this job in which he is handling bodies of coronavirus patients. Just because he don’t have enough money he is doing this dangerous job.
