FROM THE DESK OF HEAD OF DEPARTMENT (HOD) Dr. G.R. Kulkarni B.E. (Electrical with Electronics specialization) M.E. (Electronics Engineering) Ph.D. (Computer Science and Engineering When we are talking about computer science and engineering, credit goes to the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur which was the first institute in India to start the computer related courses in August, 1963 (source: www.cse.iitk.ac.in). Gradually all other IITs and other universities also added the computer courses in their existing curriculum. Later on, a branch called computer science and engineering or computer engineering comes out with all its courses which are in domain of computers like fundamental programming, advanced programming, computer architectures, operating system, computer network, database systems, microprocessors, data structures, parallel computing etc. The objective of computer engineering course is to make the students aware about structure and working of computers, how to design software for computers and how to extend the capabilities of computers to bring the people of world as close as possible virtually in this internet era. After completing the graduation in computer engineering, there are mainly three opportunities for students: higher education, research or technological development (industry). All three are equally challenging and bright career making options considering the need of society. Student can go for any one of them based on his interest and present market situation. There are eight categories of subjects the students have to learn in their graduate duration. 1. Electronics 2. Computer Organization 3. Structures, Storage and Management of data 4. Fundamental and Advance Programming 5. Software Development 6. Computers on WWW 7. Multimedia and Animation 8. Intelligent Systems At the end I have to say, there are many open fields for computer graduates and even increases as people of society have made computing equipments and computer based applications as a part of their routine life. The role of computer graduate is to understand the requirements of society and try to fulfill them by best utilizing his knowledge about whole computer domain. MESSAGE FROM COMPUTER DEPARTMENT Computer science is an integral part of our lives, shaping virtually everything from the objects around us to the ways in which we communicate, travel, work, and play. And the computer revolution has just begun – CS is now a key enabler for discovery and innovation in most other fields of endeavor, making it an incredibly relevant course of study. A career in computer science has many benefits. It has broad applications. A computer scientist can work in academia in computer science developing cutting edge applications, or in other fields with computational aspects such as chemistry or biology. A computer scientist can work in a large company or a small start up, can be a freelance web designer or game designer in a gaming company. The types of jobs and specialties in computer science are vast. What Computer Engineers Do? Computer engineer can also have flexible work schedules. Computer science is one of the few careers where flexibility can be built into a schedule. Work can be done essentially anywhere there is a computer and an internet connection. Schedules can become flexible, and a computer engineer can even work from home or a coffee shop. Strong View Engineering Point About Computer Pursuing computer science is also a smart economical decision. Computing is one of top ten fastest growing occupational groups in 2010-2020. There are over 150,000 computing job openings every year. In 2020, it is estimated that 1 in every science, math, engineering and technology job will be in computing. This means that students with a computer science and engineering degree will have great job prospects, and provide them and their families’ economical stability in the future. Why KITRC-Computer Department?

Other meanings include gambling and events staged for the purpose of gambling; hunting; and games and diversions, including ones that require exercise. Roget's defines the noun sport as an "activity engaged in for relaxation and amusement" with synonyms including diversion and recreation. Sport is generally recognised as activities which are based in physical athleticism or physical dexterity, with the largest major competitions such as the Olympic Games admitting only sports meeting this definition, and other organization such as the Council of Europe using definitions precluding activities without a physical element from classification as sports. However, a number of competitive, but non-physical, activities claim recognition as mind sports. The International Olympic Committee (through ARISF) recognises both chess and bridge as bona fide sports, and Sport Accord, the international sports federation association, recognises five non-physical sports, although limits the amount of mind games which can be admitted as sports. Together we achieve that which no one can achieve alone – by Adreian Payne Our students have participated in the GTU Athletics games organized by Gandhinagar Zone Sports Committee at Sports Authority Of India, Gandhinagar. This is the 1st athletics games organized by GTU for both Men and Women motivating the spirits of students more and more. We have participation in various games like racing, relay, shot put, discus throw, hurdle run, long jump, pole vault, jelvin throw and high jump. Together Everyone Achieves More – by Paul Ihlenfeldt Our students had also shown active participation in GTU Sports event i.e. SPIRIT 2014. We had active participation in various indoor and outdoor sports for this event. There are 75 students from all branches who had participated in the different games in GTU Sports event SPIRIT – 2014.

A well known Band was called for the performance and all the students enjoyed dancing on their beats. TEACHER’S DAY CELEBRATION The birth date, [5 September 1888], of the second President of India, academic philosopher Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, is celebrated day, where teachers and students report to school as usual but the usual activities and classes are replaced by activities of celebration, thanks and remembrance. In some schools, on this day senior students take the responsibility of teaching in order to show their appreciation for the teachers. Department of Computer in KITRC had organized such a day for student. The day is celebrated with full of joy and carriage student of CE department celebrate the day by giving lecture to others and we appreciate them with price distribution for best presentation. Better then the thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great TEACHER – Japanese Proverb PICNIC Computer Department of KITRC had organized an outing on 18th March 2014 to -----.

REVIVAL EVENT- Days Celebration Kalol Institute of Technology and Research Centre had organized “Revival Events” in KIRC campus from 4th Feb, 2014 to 8th Feb, 2014. Students had great time during these events includes Group Day, Executive Day, Mix-Match Day, Traditional Day, Games Day. SWACHTA SHAPAT Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (स्वच्छ भारत अभभयान, Clean Indian Mission) is a national level campaign by the Government of India, covering 4041 statutory towns to clean the streets, roads and infrastructure of the country This campaign aims to accomplish the vision of 'Clean India' by 2 October 2019, 150th birthday of Mahatma Gandhi and is expected to cost over 62000 crore (US$9.7 billion). The campaign was described as "beyond politics" and "inspired by patriotism". With initiation of honourable prime minister, Shri Narendra Modi for Swachta Abiyaan, our university GTU has also initiated same for all the college afflicted under it. GTU has asked all the colleges to encourage such activities in all the colleges. Under this consideration Department of Computer Engineering of KIT has also taken such commitment to keep our department clean. A Swachta shapat was taken by the department along with students on 12th Nov , THOUGHTES OF FACULTIES IN TECHNICAL & NON-TECHNICAL FIELD Google Glass Jaimini J Patel - Google Glass is a type of wearable technology with an optical head-mounted display (OHMD). It was developed by Google with the mission of producing a mass-market ubiquitous computer.[1] Google Glass displays information in a Smartphone-like hands-free format. Wearers communicate with the Internet via natural language voice commands. Google started selling Google Glass to qualified "Glass Explorers" in the US on April 15, 2013, for a limited period for $1,500, before it became available to the public on May 15, 2014, for the same price. Other than the touchpad, Google Glass can be controlled using "voice actions". To activate Glass, wearers tilt their heads 30° upward (which can be altered for preference) or tap the touchpad, and say "O.K., Glass." Once Glass is activated, wearers can say an action, such as "Take a picture", "Record a video", "Hangout with [person/Google+ circle]", "Google 'what year was Wikipedia founded?'", "Give me directions to the Eiffel Tower", and "Send a message to John" (many of these commands can be seen in a product video released in February 2013). For search results that are read back to the user, the voice response is relayed using bone conduction through a transducer that sits beside the ear, thereby rendering the sound almost inaudible to other people Here comes the terabyte phone - Ctetna Chand A big selling point of smart phones is their ability to hold much of your data -- photos, videos, your entire music library -- on a little device. But over the years, their storage capabilities, usually no more than 64 GB, haven't kept pace with all the movies, games, apps and other memory-hogging minutiae of modern digital life. Many people keep stuff in the cloud, but that requires Wi-Fi access. It's frustrating to have to delete music or videos every time you want to store something new on your phone. But thanks to some advances in memory design and construction, we may be about to expand our devices in a big way. At Rice University, a team led by chemist James Tour has developed a breakthrough in RRAM (resistive random-access memory) technology. Their RRAM uses silicon oxide, one of the most studied and abundant substances on Earth, the stuff of sand and glass. "Because it's this amazing material, the industry understands it," Tour said, noting that the key to the scalability of the design is industrial availability. Indeed, Rice's RRAM can be manufactured at room temperature and relatively lower voltages compared with other versions. RRAM is the next step for an industry that's finding the limits to flash memory. Like flash, RRAM doesn't need continuous power. But it's also much faster, since it can be built into more versatile arrays and stacked into bigger pieces. "You've got to get into the third dimension to pack up enough density in the memory" in order to keep the capabilities growing, Tour said. Flash memory has kept up with Moore's Law -- the ever-increasing power of microchips -- by giving more functionality to the devices on the chips, he says. But RRAM does a better and more efficient job."It's this insatiable desire for memory that's driving all this," he said. Tour's team is one of many working on the problem, though he believes his approach has an edge because of its use of silicon oxide instead of more exotic materials. Licensing is under way, he says, and prototypes will be further test the concept's viability. But if everything pans out, phones with a terabyte of memory -- that's 1,000 GB, enough to hold hundreds of feature-length movies -- are just the beginning, Tour says. "Because silicon oxide is glass and it's transparent, we've built these on glass, we've built this on top of plastic, so it can even be part of the coating you're looking at through the screen," he said. Tour believes it'll be a world like that portrayed in the movie "Minority Report," with flexible, roll able digital "newspapers" and writable smart windows. Encrypting Tablespace In Database - Sandip K Patel Oracle introduced transparent data encryption (TDE) column encryption in Oracle Advanced Security with the release of Oracle Database 10g Release 2. Although this feature enables you to encrypt columns of a table without writing a single piece of code and helps with several key compliance regulations, it can negatively affect performance in applications when an encrypted column is used in range scans or as a foreign key. Column encryption is performed transparently within the database SQL layer, and indexes on an encrypted column are built on the encrypted values. Because encrypted values look random and disconnected, range scan operations on encrypted columns are not effective. Although column encryption occurs quickly, the range scan limitation is a real challenge in many real-world situations. The Oracle Advanced Security option for Oracle Database 11 g introduces a nifty new TDE feature— tablespace encryption —that allows a whole tablespace to be encrypted and therefore addresses the range scan and foreign key limitation of column-level encryption. The new tablespace is created as encrypted, and the data, whether tables or indexes, is stored encrypted in that tablespace, When a user selects that data, the server process moves the data from storage to the buffer cache and subsequently to the user’s session. The data is decrypted before being loaded into the buffer cache, so it’s always in cleartext (unencrypted) inside the buffer cache. Almost all types of data access—including index scans, table joins, and so on—happen in the buffer cache, so the performance of operations involving data from the encrypted tablespace is no different from that involving data from a normal, unencrypted tablespace. Encryption requires at least two things: an encryption key and an algorithm. TDE uses what is known as a two-tier key architecture: both column and tablespace encryption keys are stored in the database but are encrypted with another key called the master key . The master key is stored outside the database in a special container called an external security module , which can be something as easy to set up as an Oracle wallet or as sophisticated as a hardware security module device. The Oracle wallet is a file formatted according to Public Key Cryptography Standard No. 12 and encrypted with a password. For using the wallet as the external security module, a password must be provided to make the master key accessible to the database. Unless the right password is supplied, the wallet can’t be opened and the encrypted data can’t be retrieved. The wallet is automatically closed when the database instance is shut down and must be reopened by a security officer when the instance starts. So although thieves might be able to restore a database from tapes, without the wallet and the password, they will not be able to view the encrypted data. (In the hardware security module case, the hardware device must be made available to the database in a manner specified by the vendor of the device.) With tablespace encryption, before data buffers are written back to disk (as a result of the checkpoint process), they are encrypted by DB Writer processes (DBWn). Operations, such as direct path inserts and reads that manipulate the data directly in the database, perform encryption inline. When the log buffers are written to the redo logs by the log writer process, they are encrypted as well, so the initial and subsequently archived redo logs contain only encrypted data How Antivirus Software Works - Prof. A R Kazi - Because of increasing threat from virus and other malicious programs, almost every computer today comes with pre-installed antivirus software on it. In fact, an antivirus has become one of the most essential software packages for every computer. Even though every one of us have an antivirus software installed on our computers, only a few people knows how Antivirus software actually works! Well, if you are one among those who really not know how antivirus works, then this article is for you. How Antivirus Works: Antivirus software typically uses a variety of strategies in detecting and removing viruses, worms and other malware programs. The following are the two most widely employed identification methods: 1. Signature-based detection (Dictionary approach) This is the most commonly employed method which involves searching for known patterns of virus within a given file. Every antivirus software will have a dictionary of sample malware codes called signatures in its database. Whenever a file is examined, the antivirus refers to the dictionary of sample codes present within its database and compares the same with the current file. If the piece of code within the file matches with the one in its dictionary then it is flagged and proper action is taken immediately so as to stop the virus from further replicating. The antivirus may choose to repair the file, quarantine or delete it permanently based on its potential risk. As new viruses and malwares are created and released every day, this method of detection cannot defend against new malwares unless their samples are collected and signatures are released by the antivirus software company. Some companies may also encourage the users to upload new viruses or variants so that, the virus can be analyzed and the signature can be added to the dictionary. Signature based detection can be very effective, but requires frequent updates of the virus signature dictionary. Hence, the users must update their antivirus software on a regular basis so as to defend against new threats that are released daily. 2. Heuristic-based detection (Suspicious behaviour approach) Heuristic-based detection involves identifying suspicious behaviour from any given program which might indicate a potential risk. This approach is used by some of the sophisticated antivirus software to identify new malware and variants of known malware. Unlike the signature based approach, here the antivirus doesn’t attempt to identify known viruses, but instead monitors the behaviour of all programs. Most commercial antivirus software use a combination of both signature-based and heuristicbased approaches to combat malware. Concern Issues are Zero-day threats, Daily Updates, Effectiveness: Thus user awareness is as important as antivirus software. Users must be trained to practice safe surfing habits such as downloading files only from trusted websites and not executing a program that is unknown or obtained from an untrusted source. Barcode Technology - Nikita S. Patel During a shopping excursion to a shopping mall, you would have noticed the cashier scanning your products using some Laser device to produce a bill. What actually he is doing that he is reading the product barcodes using a Laser/Barcode scanner. Barcode scanner reads the code, data is sent to the computer, and computer looks up into the database for the price and description of the item. Barcodes are structured to contain specific product related information. It basically encodes alphanumeric characters and symbols using black and white stripes, also called bars. Bar-coding is one of the AIDC (Automatic Identification and Data Collection) technologies which reduce human involvement in data entry and collection and thereby also reducing error and time. Structure of Barcode- A typical barcode consists of the following: Quiet Zone –The minimum required space for bar code scan-ability, preceding the Start Character of a bar code symbol. The quiet zone should be free from any printing and be the same colour and reflectance as the background of bar code symbol. The Quiet Zone should be ten times the width of the narrowest element in the bar code, or 0.25 inch minimum. Also known as Clear Area. Start Code –Indicates the start of the barcode. These are sspecial bar code characters & they signify the start of data to the scanner/reader. Start characters are usually stripped-off and not transmitted to the host. Data –The actual data the barcode stores. Check Digit –Check digit (not always present) is a mathematical sum that is used to verify the accuracy of the other elements of the barcode. It is the eextra digit added at the end of a bar code to allow the scanner to confirm that it read the bar code correctly. It is typically stripped from the data and not transmitted to the host. Stop Code – Indicates the stopping point of the barcode. These characters signify the end of data to the scanner/reader. They are also stripped-off and not transmitted to the host. Trailing Quiet Zone – Another clear space with no printing following the Stop Character. Some of the standards of Barcode is as follow: ISO/IEC 15420 Bar code symbology specification - EAN/UPC UPC (Universal Product Code) uses 12-digit numeric containing a unique manufacturer ID number, and product number. EAN (European Article Numbering) is similar to UPC except the fact that it uses 13-digit numeric. Indian Education System – Sanket S Patel What do we need to change about the Indian Education System? Education has been a problem in our country and lack of it has been blamed for all sorts of evil for hundreds of years. Funny thing is that from the colonial times, few things have changed. We have established IITs, IIMs, law schools and other institutions of excellence; students now routinely score 90% marks so that even students with 90+ percentage find it difficult to get into the colleges of their choice; but we do more of the same old stuff. Rote learning still plagues our system, students study only to score marks in exams, and sometimes to crack exams like IIT JEE, AIIMS or CLAT. The colonial masters introduced education systems in India to create clerks and civil servants, and we have not deviated much from that pattern till today. If once the youngsters prepared en masse for civil services and bank officers exams, they now prepare to become engineers. Focus on skill based education: Our education system is geared towards teaching and testing knowledge at every level as opposed to teaching skills. “Give a man a fish and you feed him one day, teach him how to catch fishes and you feed him for a lifetime.” I believe that if you teach a man a skill, you enable him for a lifetime. Knowledge is largely forgotten after the semester exam is over. Still, year after year Indian students focus on cramming information. The best crammers are rewarded by the system. This is one of the fundamental flaws of our education system. Reward creativity, original thinking, research and innovation: Our education system rarely rewards what deserves highest academic accolades. Deviance is discouraged. Risk taking is mocked. Our testing and marking systems need to be built to recognize original contributions, in form of creativity, problem solving, valuable original research and innovation. If we could do this successfully Indian education system would have changed overnight. Get smarter people to teach: For way too long teaching became the sanctuary of the incompetent. Teaching jobs are until today widely regarded as safe, well-paying, risk-free and low-pressure jobs. Once a teacher told me in high school “Well, if you guys don’t study it is entirely your loss – I will get my salary at the end of the month anyway.” He could not put across the lack of incentive for being good at teaching any better. Thousands of terrible teachers all over India are wasting valuable time of young children every day all over India. Implement massive technology infrastructure for education: India needs to embrace internet and technology if it has to teach all of its huge population, the majority of which is located in remote villages. Now that we have computers and internet, it makes sense to invest in technological infrastructure that will make access to knowledge easier than ever. Instead of focussing on outdated models of brick and mortar colleges and universities, we need to create educational delivery mechanisms that can actually take the wealth of human knowledge to the masses. The tools for this dissemination will be cheap smartphones, tablets and computers with high speed internet connection. While all these are becoming more possible than ever before, there is lot of innovation yet to take place in this space. How To Earn Money From A Website - Prof. A R Kazi One common question that people usually ask, how they can make money through their website. I would say earning money online is obviously not as easy as one might think, but its definitely not impossible. You need good knowledge and hard work. For earning good money online, you need a good website. Your website should look professional, up-to-date, interactive and convincing to the audience. For that, you have to choose a suitable theme to launch a perfect website. Here I am writing some easiest ways to make money online from your website. Affiliate Program: Sell Others Product and Get Commission: An affiliate is a person who gets a commission for selling every product that he promotes, whether on his Website or through any other avenue such as eBay. You don't have to own the product. You only need to sign up for an affiliate program with a company and start selling its products under your referral link. Buying and selling domain:Buying and selling domain names is another way to make money from home and requires very little investment or time. You can buy domains at their registration prices or even cheaper price and trade them with some profit. Add Google Advertisement: Putting ads on your website and earning on the basis of cost per click is the best approach ever. Google AdSense is the most popular example under this category. So, every time a site visitor clicks on one of the Ad Words ads on your site, you earn money. Google Ad Sense is free to join. Do Paid Blogging: Now a days, there are many websites or companies that are promoting their products and services through review blogging. The companies usually pay those websites or bloggers who write reviews for promoting their products and services. So you can also start writing such blogs for product reviews and post on your website to earn good money. Email Marketing: If you have a huge email list then you will be able to drive traffic to your website that will get you money through other methods. You can send emails to listed email ids to let them know about your latest product and services. The main advantage of email marketing is that you are able to deliver your services and products directly in the inbox of your customer. The best way to create an email list is to set up a signup form in your blog and send free reports to people’s inbox, so that you get more signups. E-tuitions/Webinars: The demand for tutors is high and growing. So, if you like helping others learn, e-teaching could be the earning ticket for you. All you need to become an online tutor is expertise in your subject. If you gain a good reputation as a coach, you could even conduct Webinars-lectures or seminars transmitted over the Net. College and university students are willing to pay to gain entry to a well-respected Webinar. Online Marketing: Once a Website is created and optimised for search engine (SEO), the SEM or Search Engine Marketing begins. An SEO/SEM expert, who is responsible for marketing a Website, can promote it in various ways. These include article marketing, writing press releases, forum posting, blog posting, submitting your site to directories and search engines, social bookmarking, etc. Most companies don't do this in-house and pay you to conduct the SEM for them. Teacher – Student Relationship - Sandip K Patel The teacher student relationship is very important for children. Children spend approximately 5 to 7 hours a day with a teacher. We ask ourselves what is considered a good teacher? All of us have gone through schooling, and if fortunate had a favorite teacher. A positive relationship between the student and the teacher is difficult to establish, but can be found for both individuals at either end. The qualities for a positive relationship can vary to set a learning experience approachable and inviting the students to learn. A teacher and student who have the qualities of good communications, respect in a classroom, and show interest in teaching from the point of view of the teacher and learning from a student will establish a positive relationship in the classroom. I will be focusing on the relationship between the student and teacher, involving a setting in the primary grades, which I have found second grade to be extremely important for the student to gain a positive attitude for their future education. Children have different strategies for learning and achieving their goals. A few students in a classroom will grasp and learn quickly, but at the same time there will be those who have to be repeatedly taught using different techniques for the student to be able to understand the lesson. On the other hand, there are those students who fool around and use school or college as entertainment. Teaching then becomes difficult, especially if there is no proper communication. Yet, teachers, creating a positive relationship with their students, will not necessarily control of all the disruptive students. The key is, teachers need to continuously monitor the student in order for him or her to be aware of any difficulties the student is having. Understanding the child’s problem, fear, or confusion will give the teacher a better understanding the child’s learning difficulties. Once the teacher becomes aware of the problems, he or she will have more patience with the student, thus making the child feel secure or less confused when learning is taking place in the classroom. The communication between the student and the teacher serves as a connection between the two, which provides a better atmosphere for a classroom environment. Of course a teacher is not going to understand every problem for every child in his or her classroom, but will acquire enough information for those students who are struggling with specific tasks. “academic achievement and student behavior are influenced by the quality of the teacher and student relationship”. The more the teacher connects or communicates with his or her students, the more likely they will be able to help students learn at a high level and accomplish quickly. - Human Rights Violations - Nikita D. Patel Human rights advocates agree that, sixty years after its issue, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is still more a dream than reality. Violations exist in every part of the world. For example, Amnesty International’s 2009 World Report and other sources show that individuals are: Tortured or abused in at least 81 countries Face unfair trials in at least 54 countries Restricted in their freedom of expression in at least 77 countries Not only that, but women and children in particular are marginalized in numerous ways, the press is not free in many countries, and dissenters are silenced, too often permanently. While some gains have been made over the course of the last six decades, human rights violations still plague the world today. To help inform you of the true situation throughout the world, this section provides examples of violations of six Articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights(UDHR) THE RIGHT TO LIVE FREE “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.” NO SLAVERY “No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms.” NO TORTURE “No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.” FREEDOM TO MOVE “Everyone has the right to freedom of movement and residence within the borders of each State. And Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country.” FREEDOM OF THOUGHT “Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.” FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.” RIGHT TO DEMOCRACY “Everyone has the right to take part in the government of his country, directly or through freely chosen representatives. And Everyone has the right to equal access to public service in his country. And The will of the people shall be the basis of the authority of government; this will shall be expressed in periodic and genuine elections which shall be by universal and equal suffrage and shall be held by secret vote or by equivalent free voting procedures.” Are you revealing more personal info online? - Shilpa Serasiya If you suddenly feel the urge to share more on a social networking site, it may have something to do with its latest policy changes. According to a new study, changes in privacy settings led users to reveal more. The seven-year study by Carnegie Mellon University researchers said users had been moving toward greater privacy settings from 2005 to 2009, but the trend reversed with the site’s changes in 2009 and 2010. The study found evidence of three contrasting trends in the amount of information the site’s users disclosed over time: decreasing public disclosures; abrupt changes in disclosure due to interface and policy changes; and increasing private disclosures, Providence Journal reported. The 2005-2011 study, which appears in The Journal of Privacy and Confidentiality is the first longitudinal study to document how privacy and disclosure evolve on social network sites over an extended period of time. Researchers found that from 2005-2009, the site’s users displayed more privacy-seeking behaviour, progressively decreasing the amount of personal data shared with the public. This trend abruptly reversed between 2009 and 2010, when changes implemented by the site, such as modifications to its user interface and default settings, led to a significant increase in the public sharing of various types of personal information. “These findings highlight the tension between privacy choices as expressions of individual subjective preferences, and the role of the network environment in shaping those choices," said CMU Associate Professor of Information Technology and Public Policy Alessandro Acquisti. Qualities of an Effective Teacher – Chetna Chand What makes a teacher effective? Research indicates that teacher preparation/knowledge of teaching and learning, subject matter knowledge, experience, and the combined set of qualifications measured by teacher licensure are all leading factors in teacher effectiveness. In this article, we examine ten qualities that virtually every effective teacher will possess. • An effective teacher loves to teach. The single most important quality that every teacher should possess is a love and passion for teaching young people. Unfortunately, there are teachers who do not love what they do. This single factor can destroy a teacher’s effectiveness quicker than anything else. Teachers who do not enjoy their job cannot possibly be effective day in and day out. There are too many discouraging factors associated with teaching that is difficult enough on a teacher who absolutely loves what they do, much less on one who doesn’t have the drive, passion, or enthusiasm for it. • An effective teacher demonstrates a caring attitude. Even teachers who love their job can struggle in this area, not because they don’t care, but because they get caught up so much in the day to day routine of teaching that they can forget that their students have lives outside of school. Taking the time to get to know a student on a personal level takes a lot of time and dedication. There is also a line that no teacher wants to cross where their relationship becomes too personal. Elite teachers know how to balance this without crossing that line and once a student believes the teacher truly cares for them, then there is no limit to what that student can achieve. • An effective teacher can relate to his or her students. The best teachers work hard to figure out how to relate to each of their students. Common interest can be hard to find, but exceptional teachers will find a way to connect with their students even if they have to fake it. For instance, you may have a student who is a Lego fanatic. You can relate to that student if you do something as simple as ordering a Lego catalog and then going through it and discussing it with that student. Even if you have no actual interest in Lego’s, the student will think you do and thus naturally create a connection. • An effective teacher is willing to think outside the box. There is no one set cookie cutter way to teach. A cookie cutter approach would likely be boring for both teachers and students. What makes teaching so exciting is that kids learn differently, and we have to find and utilize different strategies and differentiated learning to reach every student. What works for one student, will not work for every student. Teachers have to be willing to be creative and adaptive in their lessons, thinking outside the box on a continual basis. If you try to teach every concept in the same manner, there will be students who miss out on key factors because they aren’t wired to learn that way. • An effective teacher is an excellent communicator. To be the best possible teacher you must be an effective communicator. However, in this area you are not just limited to being a skilled communicator to your students although that is a must. You must also be a strong communicator with parents of your students as well as your faculty/staff team within in your building. If you have a difficulty communicating with any of these three groups, then you limit your overall effectiveness as a teacher. • An effective teacher is proactive rather than reactive. This can be one of most difficult aspects for a teacher to conquer. Intense planning and organization can ultimately make your job all the more less difficult. Teachers who plan ahead, looking for aspects that they might have issues with, and proactively looking for solutions to solve those problems will have less stress on them, than those teachers who wait until a problem arises and then tries to address it. Being proactive does not replace being adaptive • An effective teacher uses a variety of media in their lessons. Like it or not we are in the 21st century, and this generation of students was born in the digital age. These students have been bombarded by technological advances unlike any other generation. They have embraced it, and if we as teachers do not, then we are falling behind. This is not to say that we should eliminate textbooks and worksheets completely, but effective teachers are not afraid to implement other forms of media within their lessons. • An effective teacher challenges their students. The most effective teachers, are often the ones that many students think are the most difficult. This is because they challenge their students and push them harder than the average teacher does. These are the teachers who are often students’ least favorite teachers at the time, but then later on in life they are the ones that we all remember and want to thank, because of how well they prepared us for life after our time with them. Being an effective teacher does not mean you are easy.
