| smart vocabulary: Untold Stories Of The Exodus PRAN PANDIT, 2022-06-28 “Mass exodus of more than three hundred thousand Kashmiri Hindus, the religious minority of Kashmir, in the year 1990, is reminiscent of the plight of millions of people who were rendered homeless at the time of division of united India in 1947. Despite lapse of more than three decades, the internally displaced persons (IDPs) from the valley of Kashmir continue to live as refugees in their own country! The book seeks to acquaint the readers with the machinations and maneuvers of the villains of peace, for causing destruction of human life and property in the peaceful valley of Kashmir, and coercing en masse departure of the locals from the land of their forbearers.” “The eruption of terror in Kashmir was not an abrupt phenomenon it had been ‘in-the-making’ for years and decades. It can be said with unmistakable clarity that ‘Terror in Kashmir’ was a measure of the penetration achieved by extremist and separatist elements in creating a broad base for Jehad; and what appeared improbable, did happen in late 80’s. The political establishments did not recognize the trouble brewing in the valley of Kashmir even after the horrendous incidents of subversion and sabotage in 1988 and 1989. The manner of dealing with the crisis situation lacked seriousness; and they utterly failed to fulfill their constitutional obligations.” |
| smart vocabulary: Time to Learn Christopher Gabrieli, Warren Goldstein, 2008-04-25 Across the country, an educational revolution is taking root. Kids are learning more. Teachers are free to teach beyond the test. And parents aren’t worried about what their kids are up to after school. What accounts for this change? The simple answer is, “More time to learn.” The current school day—6 hours and 180 days per year—is obsolete. It fails to provide students with the academic foundations and well-rounded education they need to succeed and thrive in the twenty-first century. The old school day is also out of step with the reality of working families without a stay-at-home parent to manage their children’s after-school time. Using an additional one to two hours, the new school day reworks the schedule so that children can master core academic subjects, receive individualized instruction and tutoring, and be exposed to a broad array of topics such as the arts, music, drama, and sports. |

Never push things as YOU are the example others should see the need to follow – YOU should seek to become an EXEMPLAR and should act in that manner! |
| smart vocabulary: Intercultural Communication Education and Research Hamza R'boul, Fred Dervin, 2023-05-12 Seeking to uncover underlying epistemic invisibilities in generating intercultural communication education and research knowledge and to open up space for envisaging interculturality alternatively, this book reexamines and problematizes the assumptions and ontologies in the conceptual systems of interculturality. In enunciating and critiquing what has been largely endorsed, normalized and taken for granted, this volume brings to the fore different, changing and situated understandings of intercultural ontologies and epistemologies in terms of premises, workings and objectives, unveiling the entangled factors and contexts that have delimited and circumscribed the realm. The authors believe that the field would benefit from some cognitive and sensory dissonance while reengaging effectively with notions to move forward. In particular, they endeavour to de-monumentalize and disrupt the very conceptual tenets that may have rendered interculturality myopic, repetitive, monolithic and aseptic in expanding the epistemic concerns of the “intercultural”, especially in the English language. This book will be an essential read for scholars and students of the sociology of education, educational philosophy and intercultural education and also for all readers interested in the broad field of interculturality. |
