...Overview of Varying Learning Styles People are different and therefore do things differently, such as how they learn. How does one assimilate information the best? In this paper, this writer will discuss how to figure out a person’s learning style, different styles of learning, and how to accommodate the different learning styles. By understanding one’s individual learning styles, people can change the way that they teach and study in order to increase the knowledge that is retained. How to Determine Learning Styles There are multiple ways to figure out someone’s personal learning style. A person can look at ways that they study best for clues. Does an individual need to write and read everything, watch videos on the subject, must learn by doing, or a combination of these? A person could also take a questionnaire and based on their answers, come to the conclusion of their learning style. One of the most popular ways to learn one’s style of learning is to take a questionnaire created by VARK (VARK, 2014). Different Styles of Learning According to VARK learning questionnaire, the populace fall into five categories. These different sections are visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic, and multimodal (Vark, 2014). Visual consists of learning best by studying with diagrams or pictures. Visual learners, while studying written words, should find that highlighting information useful ((Blevins, 2014). Persons that are more aurally inclined learn better by listening to information...

...CHAPTER I Problem and Its Setting Introduction Education plays a vital role in the development of a learner. The acquisition of new knowledge, information and the way one responds to the learning environment makes him a holistic learner. It must be uncalculated in our minds that one of the purposes of education is to train learners on how to formulate solutions to problems, how to grow independently, how to apply what they learned inside the classroom in their real life situations, and how to understand things and make them useful to one’s life. You cannot learn simply by being told what to do or by watching others, you have to practice and practice frequently. Successful students employ time management systems to create study patterns that work and use active learning methods to add meaning and interest to their study time and maintaining their motivation by connecting reasons for study to their life goals and values. Learners must develop and established good study habits in doing school work, which can raised their academic performance. High educational achievement attained by the learners in school is the primary objective of education. It cannot be achieved in a split second or snap of a finger. Many school learners fail in their studies due to their inability to cope with the daily obstacles and demands in schools. Effective study skills are about more than understanding and it must be practiced in order to improve and also enable to students to work privately. It is not...

...NATURE OF TRAINING AND DEVLOPMENT In simple terms, training and development refers to the imparting of specific skills, abilities and knowledge to an employee. More clearly, training and development may be understood as any attempt to improve current or future employee performance by increasing an employee’s ability to perform through learning. Usually by changing the employee’s attitude or increasing his or her skills and knowledge. The need for training and development is determined by the employee’s performance deficiency, computed as follow: Training and development = standard performance –actual performance. Difference between training, development & education We can make a distinction among training, education and development. Such distinction enables us to acquire a better perspective about the meaning of the terms. Training, as was stated earlier, refers to the process of imparting specific skills. Education on the other hand, is confined to theoretical learning in classroom. Though training and education differ in nature and orientation, they are complementary. An employee, for example, who undergoes training is presumed to have had had some formal education. Furthermore, no training programme is complete without an element of education. In fact, the distinction between training and education is getting increasingly blurred nowadays. As more and more employees are called upon to exercise judgment and to choose alternative solution to the job problem, training...

...A Software Quality Assurance and Management System Er.Ashish Kumar Tripathi, Er. Sachin Kumar Dhar Dwivedi, Mr. Saurabh Upadhyay Abstract- Software quality objectives covers a variety of techniques and measurements, including gathering code metrics, enforcing coding rules, and proving the absence of run-time errors. The guide also takes into account the origin of the code, its stage in the software life cycle, and the safety aspects of the application. The guide explains how to gradually adapt the code verification process to achieve targeted quality objectives Index Terms- Application and System S/W, System efficiency, testing and good designing tools. -------------------------------------------------------- 1-Introduction Quality assurance for automotive systems can require different types of verification activities throughout the development process. Early verification focuses on evaluating intermediate software builds and removing defects at coding time. This represents an emerging trend because performing verification early in the process can improve overall quality and reduce development time. Post-production verification focuses on evaluating final build quality or finding defect root causes after the product is complete. This is the most common approach to automotive system verification. 3-About Software ProductsSoftware products may be • Custom - developed for a particular customer, according to its specifications Generic (“package”) - developed for...

...transactions, manufacturing, transportation, communication, defence systems, process control systems, and so on. In the near future, they will be found in our homes, controlling all forms of appliances. Left to themselves, they are harmless pieces of hardware. Load the right kind of software, they can take you to the moon, both literally and figuratively. It is the software that gives life to them.When they are going to play such a crucial role, one small flaw either in the hardware or the software can lead to catastrophic consequences. The sad part is, while there are well defined processes based on theoretical foundations to ensure the reliability of the hardware, same thing can not be said about software. There is no theory for software devlopment as yet. But at the same time, it is mandatory that software always behaves in a predictable manner, even in unforeseen circumstances. Hence there is a need to control its development through a well defined and systematic process. The old fashioned 'code & test' approach will not do any more. It may be good enough for 'toy' problems, but in real life, software is expected to solve enormously complex problems. Some of the aspects of real life software projects are: Team effort: Any large development effort requires the services of a team of specialists. For example the team could consist of domain experts, software design experts, coding specialists, testing experts, hardware specialists, etc. Each group could concentrate on a specific...
