 Abstract

As artificial intelligence continues to transform education, tools like ChatGPT are becoming valuable resources for enhancing teaching, research, and administrative tasks. This study aims to understand how familiar nursing faculty at a selected college are with ChatGPT, and how they incorporate it into their professional responsibilities. Adopting a quantitative approach with a descriptive research design, data will be gathered through a structured knowledge questionnaire and a practice checklist. The primary focus is to assess both the awareness and practical use of ChatGPT among nursing educators. The study also looks at how factors like age, experience, and educational background may influence this knowledge and use. Ultimately, the findings are expected to shed light on the current level of digital literacy among nursing faculty and support the responsible, effective integration of AI tools like ChatGPT into nursing education.

 Abstract

Polymeric nanoparticles have emerged as a promising drug delivery system for improving the therapeutic efficacy of pharmaceutical compounds. This review focuses on the formulation, characterization, and evaluation of polymeric nanoparticles as carriers of dapagliflozin for oral administration. Various formulation techniques, including emulsification-solvent evaporation, ionic gelation, nanoprecipitation, and spray drying, have been explored to enhance drug encapsulation efficiency and controlled release. Characterization methods such as particle size analysis, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, in-vitro drug release studies, morphological analysis, and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) play a crucial role in assessing nanoparticle stability and performance. Polymeric nanoparticles offer several pharmacokinetic and therapeutic advantages, including improved bioavailability, sustained drug release, reduced plasma drug fluctuations, and enhanced patient compliance. Despite these advantages, challenges such as large-scale manufacturing, stability concerns, and regulatory hurdles must be addressed. Recent advances in stimuli-responsive nanoparticles, hybrid systems, and surface modifications have further expanded their applicability beyond diabetes management, including cancer therapy, neurological disorders, antimicrobial drug delivery, and vaccine development. This review highlights the potential of polymeric nanoparticles as a transformative drug delivery platform and emphasizes the need for further research to optimize their clinical applications.

 Abstract

ABSTRACT The purpose of the study was to Study The Difference Between Pre-Test And Post-Test Of Attitude Of Higher Primary School Students In Experimental And Control Group. The sample of the present study includes 60 students studying in VI standard were drawn using purposive random sampling technique. Among the other things, the study revealed that; i) Attitude scores after story telling technique is significantly higher as compared to before story telling technique among higher primary school students in experimental group. The story telling technique is significantly effective in improving the attitude among higher primary school students in experimental group; ii) Attitude scores before and after story telling technique is similar among higher primary school students in control group. Story telling technique is not effective in improving the attitude among higher primary school students in control group.

 Abstract

In indigenous societies, the traditional calendar functions as a vital repository of ecological knowledge, intricately woven with cultural practices and seasonal rhythms. Rooted in generations of environmental observation, these calendars guide communities in the timing of agricultural labour, rituals, ceremonies, and resource management. As dynamic knowledge systems, they evolve in response to ecological shifts and societal change. This study examines the traditional calendars of two Tangkhul Naga villages, highlighting how each reflects distinct cultural expressions within a shared tribal identity. Drawing on ecological indicators and oral histories, the research explores how local knowledge systems shape and are shaped by environmental interaction and cultural values. By analysing both functional and symbolic dimensions of timekeeping, the study offers insight into the resilience, adaptability, and intra-cultural diversity of indigenous knowledge systems in the face of modern challenges.

Abstract: Segmenting ancient Tamil characters from stone inscriptions presents a significant challenge due to the complex structure of the script and the degraded nature of historical artifacts. Tamil, one of the world's oldest languages, has evolved through various scripts including Sangakala Tamil, Karoshti, Brahmi, Vatteluttu, Grantha, and the modern script, resulting in a rich and diverse character set comprising 247 unique symbols. These characters often contain loops, curves, and holes, making segmentation from stone surfaces particularly difficult. Traditional image processing techniques struggle to address issues such as uneven lighting, surface erosion, and similar foreground-background textures. Accurate character recognition heavily depends on the success of the segmentation phase, which isolates meaningful character regions from noisy backgrounds. This paper presents an in-depth analysis of segmentation techniques applied to Tamil stone inscription images, covering preprocessing methods, segmentation strategies, and recent advancements incorporating deep learning approaches. By emphasizing segmentation as the foundation for reliable character recognition, this study aims to guide future research in developing more robust and accurate Tamil epigraphy analysis systems.

Abstract: Following the principle of non-violence and led by Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation, the Indian Freedom Movement was a glorious episode in the history of the Indian Subcontinent. The Non-Cooperation Movement of 1920 was the first phase of mass movement, where people from all walks of life and various part of the country offered full support and took an active part in the movement. In Assam, the movement was led by newly emerged middle-class educated people, and who were able to spread its ideas and programmes across different parts of the province. In response to appeals from the state leaders of the movement and in their desire for freedom from colonial exploitation and also relief from the oppressive taxes newly imposed by the British government, the peasants class of the Brahmaputra Valley extended all forms of support and cooperation and actively participated in the movement. Along with other segment of society, the peasants of Assam also demonstrated their patriotism and deep love for the country. This paper attempts to study the impact of the Non-Cooperation Movement in Assam and contributions and sacrifices made by the peasants during the movement.

 Abstract

Mosquito-borne diseases continue to pose significant global health challenges, particularly in tropical regions. Conventional synthetic repellents, while effective, are often associated with environmental and health concerns. This study explores the potential of Citrus maxima (pomelo) peel waste as a natural source of mosquito-repelling compounds. Citrus peels are rich in bioactive constituents such as limonene, flavonoids, and essential oils, which exhibit strong insect-repellent properties. The extraction of these compounds through eco-friendly methods aims to promote the utilization of agricultural waste while offering a safer alternative to chemical repellents. Preliminary analysis suggests that these phytochemicals disrupt mosquito sensory mechanisms, reducing their ability to detect human hosts. This approach not only addresses the issue of fruit waste management but also supports the development of sustainable, plant-based mosquito repellents with potential applications in public health and household care. Further research is proposed to validate the efficacy through laboratory bioassays and formulation trials.
