The thrust of the present study was to study the 'Effect of Computer aided learning in promoting cognitive learning of sixth grade children of government schools in Ludhiana district'. It used experimental research design to collect the data. The field experiment was conducted to assess the promotion of cognitive learning at first two taxonomic levels i.e. Knowledge and Comprehension (Bloom et al., 1956) through the CAL package introduced under Sarv Shikhya Abhiyan. For this purpose randomized pre-test and post-test research design was used. Two matching groups of 25 students each studying in class 6th in the Government senior secondary schools of two adjoining villages in Ludhiana district were assigned treatment by random methods. The experimental group was taught through CAL and treated as intervention mode 1(IM1), whereas control group was taught through traditional method and treated as intervention mode 2 (IM2). The results revealed that IM1 i.e. CAL was more effective as compared to IM2 i.e. traditional teaching method. The gain in cognition scores was found to be significantly higher in case of IM1 as compared to IM2 in case of all seven lessons.Keywords

The present study was conducted to assess implementation of MGNREGA consistent to its provisions in Malwa region of Punjab. Seven districts of the Malwa region were selected through probability proportionate to size procedure of sampling. A total of 252 respondents i.e. 36 beneficiaries from each district comprised the sample for study. The data was collected through interview schedule consists of 4 parts i.e. issuance of job cards, employment records, wage payments and social audit procedure. As far as issuance of job cards aspects were concerned, it was found that forty-five per cent of the respondents made oral request for membership followed by those who were nominated by gram sabha (36.90%) and very few made written request (17.86%). Ninety-four per cent beneficiaries reported that all the eligible members were included in the job cards. In employment aspect of MGNREGA as reportedly by respondents only 25.39 per cent of job card holders got 100 days of employment. Seventy five per cent were offered more than 35 days of employment much below the mark of 100 days per family. Thirty eight per cent of the respondents had access to drinking water facility followed by first aid facility (18.65%), Creche (17.85%) and shade for workers during rest hours (14.68%). Payments records revealed that all the payments are made through Bank in all the districts. Majority (93.25) of the respondents reported that they don't get wage payment at in time. At mean,they have to wait for six month or more. Social audit was mandatory once in a six month. Only 57.14 per cent of the respondents reported that social audit was conducted and remaining forty three per cent opined that it was never done. Therefore many irregularities were observed in the implementation of the scheme, which is a hindering factor for success of programme.Keywords

The study aimed at assessing the implantations issues and problems faced by MGNREGA beneficiaries belonging to all three socio-cultural regions i.e. Majha, Malwa and Doaba of Punjab state. A total of 11 districts were selected for the study through probability proportionate to size sampling procedure. Two blocks per district, two villages per block and nine beneficiaries per village were further selected to complete a sample of 396 beneficiaries for the study. Interview schedule in five parts was prepared to elicit information regarding issuance of job cards, employment aspect, wage payments and their records and social audit. The major findings revealed some irregularity in implementation of MGNREGA such as late payments to workers, lack of worksite facilities, non-maintenance of work and complaint registers and non-conductance of social audit.Workers got maximum 40-45 days of work which was much below the prescribed 100 days of employment. To make the scheme successful in improving quality of life of rural poor, it is very necessary that they should regularly participate in programme and share their difficulties and complaints regarding implementation of scheme. So, it can, therefore, be concluded that awareness needs to be generated amongst the beneficiaries through mass media and other campaigns for effective implementation and success of the scheme.Keywords
