It acts as motivating factors for learnings whenever they are absent from the class for one or the other reason. The present study was conducted to find out the attitude towards e-learning among research scholars on four dimensions as e-learning interest, usefulness, ease of e-learning, e-learning confidence with respect to their Gender, Residential Background and Field of Research. The researchers adopted the stratified proportionate random sampling technique to have 450 research scholars as sample and used Attitude towards e-learning Scale by Dimpal Rain for data collection. The data was analyzed with the help of 3-Way ANOVA technique. The results revealed that Residential Background and Field of Research had significant influence on the mean scores of e-learning interest of research scholars while as only Field of Research had significant effect on the mean scores of ease of e-learning of research scholars. Further, it was found that research scholars from the Urban background were found to possess higher mean score of e-learning interest than Rural ones. Moreover, it was exposed that the main effect Gender and also the interactions between Gender and Residential Background as well as Gender and Field of Research had significant influence on usefulness.

The present study was conducted to measure the attitude towards e-learning among research scholars. The sample of 450 research scholars from different departments of University of Kashmir was taken by employing stratified simple random sampling. The attitude towards e-learning scale developed by Dimple Rani was used for data collection. After the data analyses, findings revealed that gender, residential background and their interaction had no significant influence on attitude towards e-learning of research scholars. While as field of research had significant influence on the attitude towards e- learning of research scholars. Further, no significant mean difference was found among the three fields of research (Arts, Science, Social science).

In this fast changing world, the education plays a major role in empowering students to engage with challenges. The 21st century is rapidly changing one in every dimension of human (economically, socially, technologically). Due to the rapid changes complex problems are faced by educationists, policy makers, managers and teachers as well. Teachers of 21st century have to create students of 21st century with soft skills. The 21st century teachers need teaching skills content mastery as well as integrating teaching with technology. The teacher development programs are much important. The impact of good teaching is increasingly cited as a major determinant of economic well-being of society. A useful & productive system of teacher compensation function as an important lever for attracting well-qualified and highly motivated people to the teaching profession. The quality of teachers determines the quality of education and linked with nation's development. With the emerging technologies, the teaching-learning is transforming from teacher-centered, lecture based to student-centered learning environment. In this I have discussed global characteristics of 21 st century teacher as well as with reference to India.

The availability of newer and newer technology reflects on how the relevant processes should be performed in the current fast changing digital era. This leads to the adoption of a variety of smart solutions in educational environments to enhance the quality of life and to improve the performances of both teachers and students. The present pedagogy is the digital classroom. The meaningful and the innovative use of technology are renovating the methods and approaches of teaching as well as learning in institutions. Smart Classrooms are equipment enriched lecture rooms that promote chances for teaching learning by incorporating learning technology, like computers, specified software package, useful hearing devices, spectators’ reaction technology, networking, audio/visual capabilities etc. Smart class is a digital initiative, which is rapidly changing the approach and methodology that teachers use to teach and students learn in an innovative manner using technology. It has not only made teaching learning process more colourful but interesting too. The Smart Class software has transformed as well as brought a complete revolution in the conventional rote learning methods. This system has ended the traditional ways of teaching learning process and provides a changing face of classroom. Nowadays Smart classrooms create new opportunities in teaching and learning by integrating computer, multimedia and network technology and have changed the very concept of learning (classroom teaching). Evidently, this methodology has proved valuable for the students. In Indian educational setting to deliver a quality education, the smart classes have evolved as a renovation of teaching learning process. It aids students to form better concept, and its elaboration; improving their reading skills and also academic achievements. In 2004 EDUCOM first launched a smart class. Now in India, across 560 districts more than 12,000 schools have implemented smart classes. The Jammu and Kashmir has been among the first states in the country to come up with smart classrooms and have more than 220 schools with this facility. For each school the cost of per smart classroom set up was Rs. 235000. However, this investment and these smart facilities could not prove any fruitful results in J&K state. The present paper through a light on all the pros and cons of the smart classrooms technology in Jammu and Kashmir and investigated why it was introduced and what factors the state is lacking for its better implementation with special reference to the electricity and Internet facility in educational Institutions under investigation.

A sample of 100 Rehbar-e-Taleem teachers working in schools of zone Ganderbal and zone Tulamulla of Ganderbal district were drawn through purposive sampling technique. Job satisfaction scale developed by Amar Singh and T R Sharma(2006) used to collect data. The data were analyzed using Mean, S.D, and t-test. The results revealed that female Rehbar-e-Taleem teachers show better satisfaction with the job than male Rehbar-e-Taleem teachers. It was further found that Low qualified Rehbar-eTaleem teachers show better satisfaction with the job than High qualified Rehbar-eTaleem teachers.

The sample was selected through purposive sampling technique from various professional colleges and a non professional college as Degree collage Ganderbal. The investigator used Gary S. Nickell Helping Attitude scale (HAS). The data was subjected to Mean, S.D, and t-test. The study revealed that female possess better helping attitude than male. It was also found that professional/ non professional female have better aiding attitude as compared to non professional/professional male counterparts.

It is how they learn, and how they work out who they are, how world works and where they fit into it. Children love to play, sometimes they might play by themselves and won’t need so much hands on play form others. They might just want others to give an idea to them and let them know how their play and games are going. Through play, children develop skills, habits, attitude They’ll use throughout their lives.
