[AI] Special article: : Quotas under the Right to Education: Not Leading towards an Egalitarian Education System
Certainly a very thought-provoking finding; hope researchers and interested readers would find time to read this 8 page article till the end,PDF is pasted below. http://www.epw.in/special-articles/quotas-under-right-education.html Quotas_under_the_Right_to_Education.pdf SPECIAL ARTICLE Quotas under the Right to Education Not Leading towards an Egalitarian Education System Ankur Sarin, Swati Gupta Quotas for the weaker sections in private schools have been one of the most controversial provisions introduced by the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009. The quotas have imposed a debate on issues of social integration and equity in education that private actors had by and large escaped so far. However, the idea of an egalitarian education system with equality of opportunity as its primary goal appears to be outside the well-meaning space that private school principals inhabit. Therefore, the imposition of the quotas has led to resistance, sometimes justified. But the essential arguments against it are based on the logic of markets that the leadership in private schools has imbibed. This leads them to not only resist the idea of integration, but also devalue the enormous effort put in by children and parents from the weaker sections. Ankur Sarin (asa...@iimahd.ernet.in) and Swati Gupta (swatig. adhya...@gmail.com) are research scholars at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad. A A ny modern society today relies on its schools to level the playing field for children born into different circumstances. More than any other institution, schools are charged with making equality of opportunity a reality (Duncan and Murnane 2011: 7). Assuming this to be true of India as well, these are interesting times to interrogate our education system on its ability to challenge inequalities of existing privilege in society. Access to schooling for those coming of school age (as measured by enrolment at some point in time) is close to universal (Planning Commission 2011). However, access to quality exhibits a sharp gradient with socio-economic status (Desai et al 2008). Moreover, purchasing power increasingly plays the equilibrating role between the mismatch of aspiration for quality education and its availability. Majumdar and Mooij (2012: 13) aptly describe the unfolding phenomena as segregation (taking) place along with massifi cation. At a time when market actors respond to opportunities that this disequilibrium provides, the state has prima facie taken the progressive step of enacting the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009 (RTE) (for details and its association with other government programmes and policies, see Sarkar 2012). One of the most contentious provisions of the Act has been Section 12(1)(c), which mandates that unaided private schools set aside at least 25% of their seats in the fi rst standard to students from the weaker sections and disadvantaged groups (henceforth WS). Challenged legally, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutional validity of the mandate in April 2012, exempting only unaided minority schools and boarding/residential schools. Recent studies (Noronha and Srivastava 2013; Sarangapani et al 2014) point to the resistance as well indifference of private schools and the government machinery to implementing the mandate. Highlighting the expenses that parents still need to incur, the studies challenge the notion that the mandate allows a free education. Further, both studies emphasise the exclusion the very poorest face. In contrast to these, the Centre for Civil Society (2011) reports few hurdles besides awareness of parents, and expresses a surprising optimism on the issue of inclusion. While it may be too early to reach any judgments on the effect that these quotas have had, we find that they have opened up a dialogue that the elite had so far been able to avoid. The purpose of the dialogue may well be to share strategies to subvert the objectives of the RTE. However, its value has to be u nderstood in the context of an environment and discourse Economic Political Weekly EPW september 20, 2014 vol xlIX no 38 SPECIAL ARTICLE that have not even confronted the elite and the resourceful in recent times. We hope to contribute to and extend this dialogue by a critical discursive analysis of the debate around the mandate for inclusion in private schools. In particular, we juxtapose two important voices that will determine and be most affected by the success or failure of these quotas. These are the voices of the benefi ciaries - children and their parents targeted by the quotas - and the voices of those instrumental in delivering the benefits - the principals of private schools. By most accounts, private schools have resisted integration in myriad ways, with the most egregious responses often the most highlighted (for example, Khan 2012). However, other accounts take a more empathetic view, highlighting the challenges that private school principals

[AI] Students with 'poor' academic records asked to leave school
After reading this, I'm very angry and pained. Thanks to crooked capitalism and murky meritocracy they expect every child to be a superman/super woman. in such an exploitative system, Road ahead is very thorny precisely for persons with disabilities. http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/students-with-poor-academic-records-asked-to-leave-school/article6428310.ece In a shocking incident, teachers at the government high school at Durgigudi locality here forced Godawari M., a physically challenged girl, to take here transfer certificate (TC) and appear for the 10th standard examination as an external candidate as she had an average academic record. Along with Godawari, five other 10th standard students in the school whom the teachers considered poor in studies have been issued transfer certificates and they have been asked to appear for SSLC exam as external candidates. Parents, members of School Development Management Committee, and representatives of civil society organisations had staged a protest on the school premises against this. Murali, Godawari's father, had lodged a complaint with Minister of State for Primary and Secondary Education Kimmane Ratnakar on Wednesday, and the latter has directed a probe into it. Deputy Director of Public Instruction B.C. Basavarajappa told The Hindu that, prima facie , it seemed that with the objective to secure 100 per cent results for the school, the teachers had asked the students with average academic record to take the TC and appear for the exam as external candidates, which is against the law. A panel, comprising senior officials of the department, had been formed to probe into the incident. All the six students for whom TCs were issued would be enrolled back to the school, he said. Mr. Murali told this correspondent that even after the issue of TC, the students were attending classes but their names were to be deleted from the register. They were to appear for the exam as external candidates. As a major chunk of parents who send their wards to this school are either non-literate or have limited education, they were ignorant of this practice. The teachers have behaved in an inhuman manner, said Mr. Murali. Gopalakrishna, the local councillor, said that when efforts were being made to bring back the out-of school children to the purview of formal education system through Sarva Shikshana Abhiyan and other schemes, the teachers here have acted in a contrary manner. Anantha, a social activist who was part of the protest, said that the teachers here feared that poor results would result in their transfer. -- Avinash Shahi Doctoral student at Centre for Law and Governance JNU Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Thanks to crooked capitalism and murky meritocracy they expect every child to be a superman/super woman. in such an exploitative system, Road ahead is very thorny precisely for persons with disabilities. http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/students-with-poor-academic-records-ask ed-to-leave-school/article6428310.ece In a shocking incident, teachers at the government high school at Durgigudi locality here forced Godawari M., a physically challenged girl, to take here transfer certificate (TC) and appear for the 10th standard examination as an external candidate as she had an average academic record. Along with Godawari, five other 10th standard students in the school whom the teachers considered poor in studies have been issued transfer certificates and they have been asked to appear for SSLC exam as external candidates. Parents, members of School Development Management Committee, and representatives of civil society organisations had staged a protest on the school premises against this. Murali, Godawari's father, had lodged a complaint with Minister of State for Primary and Secondary Education Kimmane Ratnakar on Wednesday, and the latter has directed a probe into it. Deputy Director of Public Instruction B.C. Basavarajappa told The Hindu that, prima facie , it seemed that with the objective to secure 100 per cent results for the school, the teachers had asked the students with average academic record to take the TC and appear for the exam as external candidates, which is against the law. A panel, comprising senior officials of the department, had been formed to probe into the incident. All the six students for whom TCs were issued would be enrolled back to the school, he said. Mr. Murali told this correspondent that even after the issue of TC, the students were attending classes but their names were to be deleted from the register. They were to appear for the exam as external candidates. As a major chunk of parents who send their wards to this school are either non-literate or have limited education, they were ignorant of this practice. The teachers have behaved in an inhuman manner, said Mr. Murali. Gopalakrishna, the local councillor, said that when efforts were being made to bring back the out-of school children to the purview of formal education system through Sarva Shikshana Abhiyan and other schemes, the teachers here have acted in a contrary manner. Anantha, a social activist who was part of the protest, said that the teachers here feared that poor results would result in their transfer. -- Avinash Shahi Doctoral student at Centre for Law and Governance JNU Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessind ia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] Is Facebook Making Us Lonely?
Is Facebook Making Us Lonely? FROM The Atlantic YVETTE VICKERS, A former Playboy playmate and B-movie star, best known for her role in Attack of the 50-Foot Woman , would have been eighty-three last August, but nobody knows exactly how old she was when she died. According to the Los Angeles coroner's report, she lay dead for the better part of a year before a neighbor and fellow actress, a woman named Susan Savage, noticed cobwebs and yellowing letters in her mailbox, reached through a broken window to unlock the door, and pushed her way through the piles of junk mail and mounds of clothing that barricaded the house. Upstairs she found Vickers's body, mummified, near a heater that was still running. Her computer was on too, its glow permeating the empty space. The Los Angeles Times posted a story headlined MUMMIFIED BODY OF FORMER PLAYBOY PLAYMATE YVETTE VICKERS FOUND IN HER BENEDICT CANYON HOME, which quickly went viral. Within two weeks, by Technorati's count, Vickers's lonesome death was already the subject of 16,057 Facebook posts and 881 tweets. She had long been a horror-movie icon, a symbol of Hollywood's capacity to exploit our most basic fears in the silliest ways; now she was an icon of a new and different kind of horror: our growing fear of loneliness. Certainly she received much more attention in death than she did in the final years of her life. With no children, no religious group, and no immediate social circle of any kind, she had begun, as an elderly woman, to look elsewhere for companionship. Savage later told Los Angeles magazine that she had searched Vickers's phone bills for clues about the life that led to such an end. In the months before her grotesque death, Vickers had made calls not to friends or family but to distant fans who had found her through fan conventions and Internet sites. Vickers's web of connections had grown broader but shallower, as has happened for many of us. We are living in an isolation that would have been unimaginable to our ancestors, and yet we have never been more accessible. Over the past three decades, technology has delivered to us a world in which we need not be out of contact for a fraction of a moment. In 2010, at a cost of $300 million, 800 miles of fiber-optic cable was laid between the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange to shave three milliseconds off trading times. Yet within this world of instant and absolute communication, unbounded by limits of time or space, we suffer from unprecedented alienation. We have never been more detached from one another, or lonelier. In a world consumed by ever more novel modes of socializing, we have less and less actual society. We live in an accelerating contradiction: the more connected we become, the lonelier we are. We were promised a global village; instead we inhabit the drab cul-de-sacs and endless freeways of a vast suburb of information. At the forefront of all this unexpectedly lonely interactivity is Facebook, with 845 million users and $3.7 billion in revenue last year. The company hopes to raise $5 billion in an initial public offering later this spring, which will make it by far the largest Internet IPO in history. Some recent estimates put the company's potential value at $100 billion, which would make it larger than the global coffee industry--one addiction preparing to surpass the other. Facebook's scale and reach are hard to comprehend: last summer Facebook became, by some counts, the first website to receive 1 trillion page views in a month. In the last three months of 2011, users generated an average of 2.7 billion likes and comments every day. On whatever scale you care to judge Facebook--as a company, as a culture, as a country--it is vast beyond imagination. Despite its immense popularity, or more likely because of it, Facebook has, from the beginning, been under something of a cloud of suspicion. The depiction of Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network as a bastard with symptoms of Asperger's syndrome was nonsense. But it felt true. It felt true to Facebook, if not to Zuckerberg. The film's most indelible scene, the one that may well have earned it an Oscar, was the final, silent shot of an anomic Zuckerberg sending out a friend request to his ex-girlfriend, then waiting and clicking and waiting and clicking--a moment of superconnected loneliness preserved in amber. We have all been in that scene: transfixed by the glare of a screen, hungering for a response. When you sign up for Google+ and set up your Friends circle, the program specifies that you should include only your real friends, the ones you feel comfortable sharing private details with. That one little phrase, your real friends --so quaint, so charmingly mothering--perfectly encapsulates the anxieties that social media have produced: the fears that Facebook is interfering with our real friendships, distancing us from each other, making

Re: [AI] Students with 'poor' academic records asked to leave school
It is pity to tell you that, very low baground family students and the dust or scrap left by private inistitutes are being admitted in government schools. health, education and transport must be in the public sector only.

Deputy Director of Public Instruction B.C.

Re: [AI] Students with 'poor' academic records asked to leave school
Frankly and honestly admitting, I performed very poorly in my +2 examinations. As a result, I was asked to study my graduation course in the vernacular medium instead of English by the college officials to which I didn't agree. But now, I hold a PhD degree along with 3 post graduations, UGC NET certificates in two subjects, few research publications to my name and presented papers in international conferences. All this, besides my present employment as assistant manager in SBI. Expelling poorly performing students can not be a solution in the education system. At the same time, punishing teachers with transfers due to poor performances of students is not correct either. Lot of other factors like infrastructure facilities, availability of study material, family background of students and even the attitude of students matter here. I should be corrected here. But weren't there any failures in the class of the great Sarvepalli Radhakrishna? On 9/20/14, raaju bidh...@gmail.com wrote: Hmm. Really a painfull news for me! when I was in school, I am also not the hard working, and brave student. Though I was reach in other akadamics like music, but I was very poor in education.

Re: [AI] KNFB Reader podcast
whatever scanning software it could be, they all are based on the engine belongs from ABBYY though. The camera and the focussing is the main thing in it. The software producers are suggesting us to get a scanning stand if you're using your phone. But as per this KNFB, if you heard the podcast, they have given you an extra feature. That is view before scanning. it will let you know whether all 4 sides of the paper edges are covered or not. So we'll be sure before taking a pic. And the accuracy will also be higher side. - Original Message - From: Sheik mohammedali shahid.se...@gmail.com To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issuesconcerning thedisabled. accessindia@accessindia.org.in Sent: Sunday, September 21, 2014 10:38 AM Subject: Re: [AI] KNFB Reader podcast well, according to my experience it gave me 95% of accuracy and the main accessibility hitch what I found is if any miss recognition due to underlining or darkness talkback does not move further in terms of reading. and for your information, I tried on my spice stellar pinnacle pro mi 535 which has eight MP of camra with auto flash and auto focused. and capturing the image was also bit challenging for me. - Original Message - From: mukesh jain mukesh.jai...@gmail.com To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerningthe disabled. accessindia@accessindia.org.in Sent: Saturday, September 20, 2014 9:02 PM Subject: Re: [AI] KNFB Reader podcast hello, thanks a lot for the feedback on abby text grabber. in fact i have raised this query few days back but noone responded so i dropped my idea to buy this app thinking that it might be inaccessible. so could you please eloborate more on the accuracy level and limitations if any noticed by you. thank you, On 9/20/14, Sheik mohammedali shahid.se...@gmail.com wrote: not knfb reader. abbyy text grabber is for android. it gives better accuracy if your mobile has 8 MP of camra with auto focused.
