diplomatic corps represent their respective countries at the UN.
The UN functions through its’ various committees on which
representatives from member nations sit and discuss issues of
global concern. To develop debating and research skills and to
develop interest of young students in areas such as foreign
policies, trade and commerce, nuclear disarmament, MOCK or

India in both – Pre & Post
Independence
times. It

such rich, cultural legacy
brought down through ages
that makes Indians stand a class
apart

AN ODE TO RIVER NARMADA
The River of Rivers,
The holiest of holy,
We salute thee, O Narmada river !
The land is dry,
And people are thirsty,
The clouds are uncertain
And trade winds elusive, O Narmada river !
We have Sabarmati and Saraswati,
And dry lakes and sarovers,
Flood them with life giving waters,
For we adore your prowess
And divine greatness, O Narmada river !
On your flow
When wheat and corn
In lands will grow,
Our farmers will rejoice
Praising you great and bold, O Narmada river !
On your way
When flowers will blossom
Birds will sing and dance,
For family and people
Shall ripple you loud
With cheers and prayers, O Narmada river !
The sacred river
Which carries our ashes,
To far off lands and seas
Nurtures every heart
The message of peace, O Narmada river !

In tune with Nature
On Friday, 30th August
2013, we got an opportunity to
visit Sundervan Nature Park.
Sundervan is managed by the
Department of Zoology, Central

saw many bamboo trees, banyan

plants. The birds section had

I am Hardi from N.R

enjoy a free life. I don’t like
controls I.e.……don’t and do’s.
My school teachers give a
lot of home work. They want me
to read and learn a lot. So, I
hardly find any time to play, to
dance, to sing and to enjoy the
company of my friends. We all
have this problem.
Let me say school homework
has become a great burden. We
find very little joy and charm in
life. Let me say, “What is life if
full of care? I have time to stand
and stare”.
We cannot enjoy the beauties
of nature. Childhood is a period
of little work and more play and

When a snake bites you, you
should go to the closest

proper treatment. We also saw
variety of fish in the aquarium.
This visit will stay in our

MOODLE- THE SOLUTION FOR
PAPER BASED EXAM
INDIA’S SOCIAL
NETWORKING SITE “JUMPBOOK”
Indians! Good News! Good
News!
ow Indians should feel
proud as India has its
own social networking
site “Jumpbook.in”.
Sometimes it is good to
think best if you start working
on it to prove your words. There
are many people who have
proved their talent and potential
to win the world. This can
happen only and only if you
have pure determination and
confidence among yourself to
achieve whatever you want to
in your life. Indians are one
such category of people who
has proved that they are not too
far to achieve great heights and
are also not too inefficient to
compete others, eventhough
they lack with basic necessities.
This has been proved by two
Indian youngsters, who are in
their mid 20’s, by developing a
unique social networking site
“Jumpbook”.
Nilay Singh and Ankur
Singh, from Patna, Bihar has
created a social networking
website all on their own. The
social networking website
“Jumpbook.in” is unique in a
sense that it combines the three
most popular internet vibes
namely
the
‘Blogs’,
‘E-commerce’, and ‘Forums’.
The Jumpbook has tried to
cover all the aspects and all the
requirements of users, for which
they come to internet. Due to
the combination of these three
aspects in a single step,
Jumpbook Jump three steps
ahead of other popular social
networking websites.
N
By Prof. Pankti Bodiwala
onventionally all our
exams are with a pen and
supplementary.
We
thought of an experimental
exam during the mid-terms of
the BCA students in GLSICA.
For this exam we decided to ask
multiple choice questions and
Moodle was the apt software
that we planned to work on.
Moodle, Modular ObjectOriented Dynamic Learning
Environment, is a Course
Management System (CMS),
also known as a Learning
Management System (LMS) or
a Virtual Learning Environment
(VLE). Using this free web
application, educators can
create effective online learning
sites. It can be installed on any
computer that can run PHP, and
can support an SQL type
database. It can run on Mac,
Windows or Linux operating
system. It provides various
features like online quiz,
assignment, activities, chat,
blogs, news etc.
To work, Moodle needs to
be installed as a Web Server. It
was a bit confusing for me as
the environment was new to
me. With the help of colleagues
and our experiments we were
successful. On the server,
C
information of users had to be
uploaded. Users can be
Administrator, Teacher or
Student. Each of them gets
restricted access depending on
criteria. Each one is provided
with username and password
through which he/she can log
in. The quiz was our main
target. Professors had to upload
the questions on server.
Questions can be True/False,
Multiple
choice,
Short
questions, Long questions etc.
On the other side, from client
machines, students had to
attempt the quiz. It provides
high level of security as number
of attempts for each quiz can be
restricted. Also different quizzes
can be shown to different
groups of students. Even within
a group, students get questions
randomly.
The assessment of individual
question is done automatically.
The lists of grades are generated
automatically. This saves each
professor’s time. Students can
also
see
their
grades
immediately,
after
the
completion of their attempt. So
Moodle is the solution for an
offline exam.
Moodle is low cost, eco
friendly, flexible and a secure
tool for examination. Many
GLASS PAINTINGS BY SHRIPA SHAH, GLS BCA SEM-III
different types of content
formats can be uploaded and
available for use by the students
and the professors. The most
important thing is that it saves
time for evaluation.
This initiative would not
have been possible without my
team. I heartily thank Dr.
Harshal Arolkar, Prof. Tripti
Dodiya, Prof. Ankit Bhavsar,
Prof. Nikita Shah and Prof.
Poonam Dang who guided me
towards this success.
“Online exam is the best
practice for Third year students,
as we all are appearing for
CMAT. This has made us
familiar with online test. So
while appearing for CMAT, we
will be pretty aware about the
interface. In college perspective
also it is very useful as it saves
time of students and faculties
because it displays the result as
soon as the test gets over. So no
need to wait for the result and
for the faculties, no need to
check the paper.” says Shalu
Jain, SEM-IV.
Based on the feedback from
the students, we hope we can
conduct more exams like this in
the future.
(The Writer is Lecturer at
GLS (I&RKD) Institute of
Computer Applications)
Creator of “Jumpbook.in”:
Jumpbook.in took around 7
years to get completed. The two
brothers who dropped from
some ordinary colleges because
of financial problems and also
due to low level of education
provided at those institutes had
to struggle very hard to achieve
their dream of providing an
alternative to the other popular
social networking websites. The
two brothers used to develop
websites and used to sell them
to customers. They were earning
by developing and selling
websites and in the meanwhile
were developing their own
social networking website
Jumbpook. At last they
completed their website on 16th
April 2013 and launched the
same, the site has now around
22,000 active users in just 4
months of time.
4-in-1 Features:
o
Sharing and Posting.
o
Quiz Application.
o
Forum
&
Blog
Platform.
o
Uploading Pictures.
Though this website is in
the stage of improvement, it can
offer the features needed by and
useful to the users. According to
Singh Brothers, they are facing
challenges on the financial
fronts as they need funds to
increase their server capacity. If
the interested investors in this
project will invest in their
website, then the duo show a
promising career ahead.

of symbology that would
appeal to the reader. All in
all, an interesting read.
The author Bhushan

of symbols) and a Psychological
Counselor.
be one of us. The story sees his
physical journey to a lonely and
deserted sea coast and his quest
to find ‘the secret of life’. He
finds the symbols of the secret
of life and tries to unravel their
meaning. His story has further
twists and turns. Throughout
this journey, there are
interactions shown in the form
of SMSes and e-mails between
AM and his friend CAN, his
perfect counterfoil.
The story ends with AM and
the readers realizing one of the
biggest ironies of life “Human
can live a wonderful life by
using his/her Common Sense
without being positivenegative, certain-uncertain”.
This book gently tells us
that the solution to all that
ails us lies with ourselves.
Through the interactions
between AM and CAN,
readers realize the
importance of friends
and a solid support
system. The author
draws
from
his
to the needs of the guests
living here. But a classy cafe
is hard to hide!
We found the menu
extensive, appealing to the
Indian, Continental, Mexican
as well as American palate.
The quality and quantity of
servings were awesome. And
the costs were decent.
But what we most enjoyed
were the drinks. The coffees
were perfect, the coolers were
superb and the shakes were
just right. The smell of the
freshly roasted coffee beans
permeated the cafe and created
the kind of ambiance one
would experience on the
streets of tiny European
holiday towns.
Speaking of ambiance, the
entire unit is built out of a
monumental house which was
constructed by Ravi’s greatgrand father about a hundred
years ago. It boasts of having
housed
luminaries
like
Gandhiji,
Sardar
Patel,
Gulzarilal Nanda, and the like
in its history. The wood-work
in the entire building is nearly
a 100 years old, and gives a
feel of antiquity and solidness
to the place. One could easily
call it a Heritage site. Because
it feels like one.
The taste of the coffee and
the cafe lingered in mind and
on the tongue through the
coffee bean chocolates that
were served complimentary
chenna and nuts and raisins.
Stir for 2 mts. Add
condensed milk at this stage,
if using it. Its optional.
8. Bring to room temperature
and chill. The kheer will
thicken lightly on chilling.
You can add a little milk, if
required for a thinner
consistency.
9. Garnish with toasted nuts
and serve chilled or at room
temperature.
The whey will become clear
which is an indication that
the milk has curdled
completely. Immediately
add about 10-12 ice cubes
and turn off flame. Leave
aside for 3-4 mts.
2. Strain the whey and add the
chenna to a damp cheese
cloth or a light cotton cloth.
Gather the four corners of
the cloth and twist it gently
and rinse under cold water
to remove the sourness of
the lemon juice. Tie the ends
and hang it at a height and
allow the whey from the
chenna to drain completely.
Leave aside for 10 mts.
3. Remove the chenna onto a
wide plate and crumble it
lightly. Keep aside.
4. Toast the nuts and raisins in
ghee till brown. Keep aside.
5. To prepare the kheer, take a
stainless steel vessel, add
milk and bring it to a boil.
Reduce flame and simmer
till the milk reduces to
almost half the quantity. Stir
constantly to avoid burning.
6. Add the soaked saffron and
cardamom powder and mix.
Add sugar and simmer for
another 10 mts, stirring once
in a while.
7. Add the crumbled paneer/
RESTAURANT REVIEW
Fresh Roast
By Dr. Jean Dsouza
I
t is not everyday that we
find a little nook in the
middle of a crowded city
that is cocooned and quiet. It is
not everyday that some of us
from the Voice team find a
moment to re-connect and enjoy
that cocoon. It is not everyday
that that cocoon surprises us,
refreshes and rejuvenates us.
Fresh Roast is such a place.
Tucked away off the
busiest, noisiest of roads,
Ashram Road, amidst the
many bus-stops that Paldi is
famous for, Fresh Roast is an
oasis. The quiet and the class
it has is almost unreal in a city
like Ahmedabad. Built initially
as part of the plush and high
quality service apartments that
owner Ravi Dalal --- set up,
the cafe was intended to cater
with the bill.
All in all, Fresh Roast is
the stuff for story books
settings and romantic movie
backdrops; a beautiful place,
delicious delicacies and lovely
ambiance. We sure enjoyed
ourselves!

reams, indeed, come
true. When Dimpal
joined her NCC training
she never thought that her
destination was there in
NCC. When she was
intimated to go to Agra for
Para jumping training, it
was quiet new to her. She
was ignorant about the type
of her training but tons of
courage she had. NCC
cadets from Ahmedabad
went to Agra by train with a
conveyance officer from NCC.
They were informed about the
nature of training; it was
unbelievable for them that for
the very first time they were
going to fly high in an Indian
Air Force plane. Cadets were
trained for ten days by highly
skilled officers and trainers of
the Indian Air Force and were
given minute details about how
to jump, the factors affecting
parachute jump like wind, heat
etc. It was very difficult for
Dimpal
to
control
her
goosebumps, when the time
came for the first jump. She felt
that her training and her mentors’
blessings were with her. She
jumped on the first number with
chills and thrills. That day was
D
proud day not only for Dimpal
but for family and her Sadguna
Privar. Dimpal, coming from a
very small town of Mokasan,
Kadi was thrilled while sharing
her experiences of parachute
jumping to Dr. Suhasben Jhala.
Indian Air Force selects very
few cadets from all over India
for such a rigorous training. It is
really bone breaking and nerve
wracking training, through
which every trainee has to pass.
“I cannot believe that I did it. I
feel more confident and will be
always grateful to my Principal
and NCC officer for giving me
such a precious opportunity to
prove myself”, shares Dimpal.
She believes NCC to be very
important for those girls who
want to do something ‘HATKE’
in her life.
