the effective use of new and emerging information technologies. Within the educational context, these new
technologies can also offer unique solutions to persistent problems in declining enrollments, limited course
offerings, limited Advanced Placement opportunities, and data collection. Many developing countries continue
to face the challenge of how to increase the computer education in rural and remote areas. There is poor
information accessibility among developing nations, a phenomenon creating the so called information gap.
Various alternatives have been thought as solutions to minimize the information gap. There is a strong positive
relationship between computer education, information flow, meeting information needs and socio-economic
development. The computer Education improving information flow and accessibility, satisfying information
needs, reducing students drop out ratio, promoting Students drop in into school and bringing about socioeconomic
development in most marginalized communities. Despite the fact that computer education is potential
services that can improve information accessibility in Banka District of Bihar. There are also limited studies
aimed at finding out the challenges facing into the computer education for rural area and how to overcome the

DOI : 10.5281/EIIRJ.7120579
Abstract
Certificate
For increase the productivity per unit area of small land holdings and considering the economic condition of Indian farmers, it is quite necessary to have suitable agricultural implements which farmers can use and also allow them to use for custom hiring. Weeding is an important agricultural unit operation. Present investigation was indertaken with an objective to evaluate different field performance of developed weeder. Present investigation was undertaken in Nagpur , Maharashtra state during the year 2010-2011. For this investigation farmers and farm workers are selected randomly from Nagpur district. The field performance of the developed weeder was evaluated in the field of cotton, soyabean and groundnut crops. The test conditions such as soil moisture content, soil type, bulk density of soil, root zone depth of weed, density of weed, etc. were taken into consideration. Speed of travel in km/h was calculated by using a stop watch. Present investigation conclude that the mean value of effective field capacity is higher in cotton crop than groundnut and soybean crops. Weeding by developed manually operated weeder increase the weeding index, effective field capacity, theoretical field capacity and field efficiency respectively while decrease the plant damage.

FOSTERING INCLUSIVE EDUCATION IN TEACHER EDUCATION: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS IN IMPLEMENTING INCLUSIVE EDUCATION IN INDIAN SCENARIO
Dr. shazil khan
DOI : 10.5281/EIIRJ.7120587
Abstract
Certificate
India is the fourth largest economy of the world in terms of purchasing power. Despite this improvement, more than 460 million people in India live in abject poverty. The reciprocity of poverty producing disability, and disability resulting in poverty has created new challenges for the implementation of inclusive education in India. The Constitution of India ensures equality, freedom, justice and dignity of all individuals and implicitly mandates an inclusive society for all including persons with disabilities. In the recent years, there have been vast and positive changes in the perception of the society towards persons with disabilities. It has been realized that a majority of children with disabilities can lead better quality of life if they have an equal opportunities and effective access to rehabilitation measures.
In India about 240 million children are disabled and have been denied access to education due to certain barriers outside the institutions and those within. Such barriers include narrowly defined set of eligibility criteria, negative attitude, and inaccessible environments. In India, inclusive education is instrumental in addressing these barriers and in making education accessible to children with disabilities and for those who are denied access on racial, ethnic, health, linguistic and cultural grounds. The range of challenges confronting the school system while including children with diverse backgrounds have to be met by creating child centred pedagogy, through community development and community participation. The inevitable presence of differences among children means that schools need to become more comfortable with building inclusive communities that value diversity. A reconstruction in school organization and curriculum is required so that school becomes a supportive community to educate all children.
In purview of these, teachers are crucial because of the central role they play in promoting community development and participation and reducing underachievement, especially with children who might be perceived as having difficulties in learning. The present research paper focuses upon that how inclusion is the major challenge facing educational systems and schools around the world. This paper also highlights that how through community involvement, participation and community development, equal opportunities and complete enrolment for all children with disabilities within inclusive settings is possible. The present paper also provides some suggestions and ways through which integration of pre-service and in-service teacher education programmes in inclusive education could help to overcome the hurdles confronting the inclusion of all children within inclusive school settings.
Inclusive Education accepts that eighty percent of all children with disabilities can study in mainstream schools with a minimum of transformation to the schools or to the education programme-and that the actual barrier to their education is not one of disability, but of failure in methodology and organization of services.

A STUDY OF MYTHOLOGY OF RAMAYANA IN RAJA RAO’S KANTHAPURA
Dr. P.M. Patil
DOI : 10.5281/EIIRJ.7120607
Abstract
Certificate
The most celebrated ancient heroic text of India is the ‘Ramayana’. It provided themes for important later literary works in Indian languages. The poet Valmiki, who lived around the 3rd century BC, put the Ramayana into form. This epic tells the story of the hero Rama, the prince of Ayodhya and incarnation of the god Vishnu. Rama willingly accepts exile in the forest to redeem a promise made by his father. Rama’s wife Sita is then kidnapped and Rama rescues her by slaying her abductor, the demon king Ravana. There was great impact of Ramayana on the work of the Indian English novelist and the winner of the Sahitya Akademi Award, Raja Rao. For him, literature is Sadhna, not a profession. Raja Rao first of introduced the elements of an epic breadth of vision, a metaphysical rigour, a philosophical depth and a symbolic richness in Indian English novel. He has learnt the art of narration from Valmiki. He has been influenced by Vedas. This research paper modestly attempts to study the mythology of Ramayana in Raja Rao’s ‘Kanthapura

Nachimani Charde & Komalavalli Darmalingam
DOI : 10.5281/EIIRJ.7120634
Abstract
Certificate
The categorization of supreme number of natural numbers was published on the first research paper (seventeen examples) and further analysis was considered in this paper as to check the supreme number with other branch of mathematics. As such this paper is adding seventeen more comparison or analysis to support the first paper of supreme number. Recalling a portion of the first paper’s abstract as: a computing tool (digit summed) was introduced at first, and then analyzed. Later it was compared with the famous mathematical approaches as to find link between them. How does the supreme number influence mathematical approaches? This is the proving part of this research which has been checked with famous mathematics. I was surprised that most of the mathematics was influenced by one of the natural numbers. The assumption of old mathematicians is correct then. It was the most weighted number in the natural numbers. Yes, it is the nine (9) which had the supreme qualities and most of today's mathematics are directly and also indirectly have a relationship with it when digit-summed method is used.
