It is a part f it. It is not the time to get to of the children. It is the time to watch over them than ever before as they refine and define their search for their identity. At this stage, the adolescent is ready to start the pursuit of emotional independence. He is ready to get introduced to moral, ethical and cultural issues. All critical issues in the overall scheme of life. Providing the right kind of guidance at this phase will light up the path that will carry the individual through his life. What are the key characteristics of adolescence? What should we keep in mind while guiding them? How can we help adolescents live up to their full potential? The Key developmental Requirement: The most vital requirement of adolescence is the creation of the adult.

		<description><![CDATA[Technology has certainly expanded the resources that instructors have available to help their students learn. But the availability of computers and LCD projectors in the classroom does not automatically translate into a better educational experience for the student. There are certainly some &#8220;Do&#8217;s and Don&#8217;ts&#8221; for creating an effective PowerPoint presentation. The following are a few ideas to make your techno lectures work. Reading Your Slides Problem: This is one thing that students familiar with projected lectures will always complain about. But the first time you teach a new topic or class, it is sometimes necessary to include more text to guide you through the material. Solution: Wherever possible, use your slides as brief summaries or lists of subtopics that you can elaborate on. If it is new material that you aren&#8217;t comfortable with yet, use the Notes feature in PowerPoint. You can make elaborate and detailed notes that you can print out with your slides, without having to include the material directly on the slides. Don&#8217;t Make Slides Text Heavy Problem: Even if you don&#8217;t read from your slides, too much text and too few graphics often make a presentation boring and difficult to follow. You students&#8217; attention will drift without engaging graphics. Solution: If you have a lot of material, divide it between several slides and be generous with photos and other graphics. For visual learners in particular, educational graphics like charts, diagrams and photographs can make it easier to retain the material. Beyond PowerPoint, computer technologies also ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Patrick Tay Every good teacher is unique in his or her own ways. Therefore, it is not really possible for us to list the characteristics of a good teacher. So, is that it? Is my article going to end here? At around 35 words? Of course not. While the characteristics of every good teacher are different, the qualities in teachers that students are drawn to are somewhat similar. So, it will be good to consider the qualities of good teachers from the students&#8217; perspectives. So, let&#8217;s look at the some of the common qualities that students take to: It will be good to start off with the quality of being caring. Students have a good impression of teachers who will make every effort to guide them in their studies. I am not implying that teachers spoon-feed students but rather, teachers should be a pillar of support when it comes to enabling students to excel in their education. Therefore, teachers who exhibit this quality consistently usually win the hearts of the students. It is almost impossible to dislike a teacher who is dedicated in her or effort to guide a student towards excellence, right? Then there is the use of the nurturing approach. During the years when I was a student, most of my teachers are authoritarian and they place class behavioural control over teaching. As a result, few students in class ever consider them to be good teachers. On the other hand, when a teacher uses the nurturing approach (which ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; With the alarmingly increasing availability of information to people nowadays, need for speed reading is also on the rise. It is a collection of various techniques and methods that help in increasing your reading speed without actually reducing your retention and comprehension capabilities. This is becoming more and more popular among students and professionals alike. This is because students benefit through this skill by covering more chapters than their contemporaries. In the corporate world, employees with this skill are able to comprehend various reports, newspapers, emails, correspondence and other technical papers faster. Thus, it improves the efficiency and productivity of the person along with providing him more time to deal with other facets of life. Speed Reading Techniques Though learning to read speedily does not help in increasing the I.Q of a person, it does help in increasing the ability of the brain to comprehend various new concepts in a short span of time. In addition to these techniques, one should strengthen his or her comprehension and vocabulary to master this skill completely. Some common basic techniques that can be followed may be listed as follows: Avoid Reading Word by Word: Unfortunately, most of us are taught to read word by word since our childhoods. This is a typically common poor reading habit, which makes the person concentrate more on the words rather than the concept presented by the complete text. For speed reading, one needs to read in chunks and blocks while grasping the basic essence of these ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are several characteristics that all good teachers have in common. They are patience; concern for their students; willingness to adapt, and; knowledge of the subject being taught. If these characteristics are lacking, a teacher cannot be an effective educator.Patience may be the most important characteristic of all. It is most important for teachers of subjects in science and mathematics. Some students can comprehend this subject material with minimal effort, while others may require more extensive explanations that may have to be repeated a number of times. As a college professor, I have had more students express anxiety over having to take basic college algebra over any other subject. When questioned about the reasons for this anxiety, the overwhelming response was that their high school math teachers were terrible. Their main critique of math teachers was their inability to explain solutions to math problems in a clear and concise manner. When these students would continue to state their lack of understanding, the teachers would lose their patience, and simply tell them to go home and practice more problems. When some students requested extra help, their teachers informed them they were unavailable for tutoring after class. Teachers of math and science generally have extensive knowledge of the subject matter they teach. Most were able to master those subjects with minimal effort. Some, however, lack the capability of appreciating the fact that each student may display different levels of aptitude for different subjects. A good teacher will possess this understanding, and be ...]]></description>
