 Abstract

This paper explores the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives within organizations. By leveraging AI technologies, including machine learning and natural language processing, companies can address systemic biases in recruitment, performance evaluation, and talent management processes. AI-driven tools facilitate the identification and mitigation of biases, promote fairness and transparency, and enable personalized learning and development opportunities. Moreover, AI enhances supplier diversity efforts, community engagement strategies, and collaborative innovation ecosystems, driving meaningful societal impact. However, successful integration of AI in DEI-focused CSR initiatives requires careful consideration of ethical implications, transparency, and stakeholder engagement. Through strategic alignment and responsible implementation, organizations can harness the transformative potential of AI to foster inclusive cultures, drive equitable outcomes, and contribute to building a more diverse and inclusive society.

 Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of synchronous versus asynchronous forms of computer-mediated feedback (CMF) on writing self-efficacy among ESL undergraduate students at the University of Mysore, India. A total of forty-one second-year students participated in a quasi-experimental study spanning two months. They were randomly assigned to two groups: one group received synchronous CMF (immediately while composing their essays), whereas the other received asynchronous CMF (two days after they had completed writing). Over the course of the study, participants engaged in six writing tasks, iterating through the process of (write, review, and revise). A self-efficacy for writing scale was administered before and after the experiment to gauge the impact of synchronous and asynchronous CMF modes on learners' writing self-efficacy. The findings indicated that both groups demonstrated improvements in writing self-efficacy levels before and after the intervention; nonetheless, the synchronous mode displayed notably higher efficacy.

 Abstract

The Unani System of Medicine has its origins in Egypt and its sister civilization, Mesopotamia, with its earliest roots often attributed to Hermes (Idris A. S.). While it took on a more scientific form under the influence of Hippocrates in ancient Greece, it was further refined and developed by Arab and Persian physicians. Upon its journey to India, the Unani System underwent significant enhancement and refinement, owing to the substantial contributions of Indian physicians. The amalgamation of diverse influences and advancements from various cultures has enriched and shaped the Unani System of Medicine. Hakim Nizamuddin Ahmad Gilani stands out as one of the eminent Unani physicians in India, having authored several important books on Unani medicine. The medical heritage of Hyderabad dates back to a period predating the European Dark Age. The mausoleum of the renowned physician Hakim Nizamuddin Ahmad Gilani is situated in the Qutb Shahi Heritage Park in Hyderabad, serving as a testament to his contributions. He established extensive herbal gardens also. Hakim Nizamuddin held the esteemed position of chief royal physician under King Abdullah, Qutb Shah VII, in 1045 AH (1635 AD) receiving an annual salary of 6,000 Qutb Shahi Huns, equivalent to approximately 206 kilograms of gold coins. In modern currency, this amount translates to roughly Rs 62 crore per annum. His significant contributions led to the naming of two localities in Hyderabad after him: Hakimpet near Shamirpet and Hakimpet in Jubilee Hills. The latter features a special medical garden spread across hundreds of acres.

 Abstract

A newborn is like the beginning of new things, new responsibilities, new journey, new life. It comes in our life with new hope, new dreams. So, the preparation to bring this newborn into the world should also be special. A Fetus also needs a healthy environment to grow up and environment for the Fetus is his/her mother's womb, father's affections, love and care by other family members or surrounding which Fetus receives through her mother's turmoil of emotions. So, it's not only the sole responsibility of the mother to grow up and deliver a healthy child. It demands everybody's contribution. To lead a healthy pregnancy, it's important to prepare ourselves prior to conception so that it can help to grow a Fetus in a healthy manner.

 Abstract

Within Indian patriarchal families, a well-established preference for male progeny resulted in the loss of girls either before or after their birth. The son preference in India is comprehended within several different strands of thought, which are still considered part of cultural beliefs and practices. The preference for a male child has been seen as an expression of traditional social behavior. And the gender disparity of socio-economic rights is also enforced to choose the male progeny in a patriarchal society. As I consider film and sociology to be linked, in this article I would like to analyze'son preference' in the aspect of post-nineties alternative cinema. Influenced by feminist theories and the new world view, it proposes that as committed artists, alternative filmmakers have tried to depict the struggle for reproductive and sexual rights, which has led to a progressive feminization of the theory and practice of governance, development, human rights, and justice. Simultaneously, I would like to locate how patriarchal these cinemas are subtly, even when they articulate the rights of the womb. Is it possible to contextualize these films in multiple locations and categorize them accordingly to have a much more disaggregated view and bring out the fractures within the new vision of gender?

 Abstract

Competence is the deliberate application of one's own knowledge, aptitudes, skills, talents, attitudes, values, and behavioural patterns to deal with challenges and difficulties. It is the state of possessing and exhibiting skills, abilities, or aptitudes in the satisfactory completion of a learning task. A person must possess competence in order to function well in any type of workplace. Competence is a specified behaviour. It is the extent to which a goal has been accomplished in terms of both timeliness and quality. Teachers in educational institutions are supposed to guide, inspire, explain, and comprehend their pupils in order to support their harmonious development. Acquiring knowledge and a validated qualification alone does not guarantee achieving the aforementioned goals. In light of urbanisation, technological improvements, and industrialization on a local and global scale, it is imperative that teachers possess a suitable understanding of child psychology, its necessities, and developmental principles. The present paper is an attempt to discuss the role of teaching competence in the teaching learning nexus.
