The study reported in this thesis has the following major objectives: (i) to find out effect of emotional literacy on academic achievement in terms of experimental group and control group (ii) to find out the difference of treatment effect between the students of low achievers group and high achievers group (iii) To find out difference regarding treatment effect in terms of students of experimental group and control group on the basis of variable emotional intelligence. The researcher selected 60 students of 10th class of Government Boys High School, Isa Khel (Mianwali District). The sample was equally divided into the experimental group and the control group. Both the groups were equated on the basis of the scores of 9th class in the Board examination (treated as pre-test). A pre-test for emotional intelligence was also administered to find out emotional quotient (EQ) of the experimental and the control group. A curriculum of emotional literacy consisted of Chapters 4-9 taken from Goleman’s book entitled: “Working with Emotional Intelligence” was taught as treatment to the experimental group. A short syllabus (Appendix-D) from Urdu Book (Part II) for 10th class was taught to both experimental and control groups in a combined class by the same teacher. The study lasted for twelve weeks. After twelfth week, two separate post-tests (one for academic achievement and other for emotional intelligence) were administered to the both experimental and control groups. Data were collected, tabulated, analyzed, and interpreted in the light of the objectives of study. Data were analyzed by applying t-test and (2x2) ANOVA. The findings of the study revealed that there is a considerable effect of emotional literacy on the academic achievement of the students at secondary level. It was also found that emotional literacy has improved emotional intelligence of the students. Moreover, it was found that emotional literacy was equally helpful and effective for both high achievers and the low achievers. Finally, on the basis of the findings of the study, the researcher put forward some feasible and practicable suggestions/ recommendations in this area. It is recommended to include emotional literacy in the curriculum as a compulsory subject, particularly at secondary level. Emotional education may be utilized in solving the issues of problematic behaviors of the children in the schools. The managers of educational institutions may monitor teaching learning process with a view to implementing emotional literacy policy. A special curriculum model suitable for the subject of emotional literacy may be devised. Moreover, public awareness regarding the importance of emotional literacy should be increased by using mass media. Emotional literacy should be made an important element of professional training of teachers, managers, curriculum developers. For further research it is recommended that the present study needs to be replicated with students and schools at larger scale and context. The association of Emotional Quotient (EQ) with Intelligence Quotient (IQ) is another aspect which needs to be addressed.

طاقت کا سرچشمہ

طاقت کا سرچشمہ

طاقت کا سر چشمہ عوام ہوتے ہیں ۔جس دن انہیں اپنی طاقت کا احساس ہو گیا تو ایسا انقلاب برپا ہو گا ۔اس دن وڈیرے جاگیردار سرمایہ دار پیسے کے بل بوتے پر سیاست کر نے والے اسٹیبلشمنٹ اور اس کے گماشتے نا م نہاد عوام کی لاتوں سے ایسے اچھالے جائیں گے ۔

جب تخت گرائے جائیں گے جب تاج اچھالے جائیں گے

اب ٹوٹ گریں گی زنجیریں اور زندانوں کی خیر نہیں

Comparative Effect Of Tetrapack Juices And Fresh Fruit Juices On Blood Glucose Level Among Healthy Individuals Comparative Effect of Juices on Blood Glucose Level

Uses of tetra pack juices enhances the risk of diabetes and obesity. People were unaware of impact of fresh fruit juices on health. Objective: To compare the effect of tetra pack juices and fresh fruit juices on blood glucoselevels among healthy individuals Methods: 10 participants were selected using an internationalstandard Glycemic Index (GI) test protocol. After getting their fasting blood sample theywereinstructed to consume all the juice served in a period of 5 min. Further blood samples were takenat different intervals of time that is 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes after consumption. Participants wereremained sedentaryduring each session. Blood was obtained by finger-prick and tested by the glucometer. Results: The glycemic index of Apple juice Nestle has the glycemic index of 95.87, Orangejuice Nestle has the GI value 93.78, Apple juice fresh has the GI value of 92.17 and Orangejuice fresh has the glycemic index value of 99.07, respectively Conclusions: Detailed study of glycemic index of tetrapack juices (Nestle Apple and Orangejuice) and fresh fruit juices (Apple and Orange juice) showed similar impact on the blood glucose level of healthy individual. In the study, both types of juices were found to be equally hyperglycemic (GI 70+) causing a fast rise in blood-sugarlevels, hence should not be given to diabetic patients

Sageretia Thea Osbeck. Mediated Synthesis of Multifunctional Nanoparticles and Their Possible Applications

We successfully performed green process using the aqueous leaf extracts of medicinal plant Sageretia thea (Osbeck.) to produce multifunctional metal oxide nanoparticles. The biosynthesized Zinc oxide (ZnO), Iron oxide (Fe2O3), Nickel oxide (NiO), Cobalt oxide (Co3O4) and Lead oxide (PbO) nanoparticles were subjected to intensive physical characterization techniques like XRD, FTIR, Raman, EDS, SAED, HR-SEM and HR-TEM. Debye Scherer approximation was used to determine the size of the biogenic nanoparticles. Average sizes of the nanoparticles were calculated as 12.5 nm (ZnO), 29 nm (Fe2O3), 18 nm (NiO), 27 nm (PbO) and 20.03 nm (Co3O4). As synthesized nanoparticles were investigated for their possible biological applications. Antimicrobial, cytotoxic, enzyme inhibition, antioxidant and biocompatibility assays were performed. Antibacterial properties against 6 pathogenic bacterial strains using disc diffusion assay and their MIC’s were calculated. Significant antibacterial potential was revealed for ZnO nanoparticles. Furthermore, the effect of UV-illumination in the enhancement of antibacterial properties was studied. Agar tube dilution method for linear mycelial growth inhibition was used to determine the antifungal potential of biogenic metal oxide nanoparticles. Significant cytotoxicity was revealed against Artemia salina. Dose dependent cytotoxicity is reported for the biosynthesized nanoparticles against Leishamnia tropica (promastigotes and amastigotes) and HepG2 cell lines using MTT cytotoxic assay, while their biocompatibility was assessed against freshly isolated human macrophages and RBC’s. Median lethal concentration (IC50) values were calculated. Significant protein kinase inhibition is indicated by Fe2O3 nanoparticles while insignificant alpha amylase inhibition is reported for biosynthesized nanoparticles. Moderate DPPH radical scavenging activity while insignificant total antioxidant and total reducing potential was indicated. In addition, ZnO nanoparticles were deposited on the 3D porous substrate (nickel foam) to fabricate electrode material for supercapacitor applications. The fabricated NiF/ZnO electrode showed high specific capacitance of ~ 453 F g-1 at a relatively high current density of ~ 2 A g-1. The electrode also showed excellent cycling performance with 86% specific capacitance retention after 1000 cycles. Our results suggest that biosynthesized metal oxide nanoparticles can be used in diverse applications.
