Education Career - How to Succeed in Education

Success in an education career can be planned, but it has to be part of your attitude. You cannot teach unless you have a knack for explaining knotty subjects in clear and simple terms. Moreover, succeeding in education is not related to a certification even though you require one to work in schools. You can light up your life if you harbor a secret passion to teach and deliver lectures in an engaging way. Certification You best bet for embarking on a school career would be to go for a certification that will allow you to enhance the value of your resume. Teaching certifications are the first step as without the qualification, your CV is likely to be swept aside. You would automatically stand a better chance with a degree.

Indian Education Sector - Outsourcing of Services by Trust to Associated Services Companies

The formal regulated education sector in India broadly comprises of schools (often classified as K-12 - kindergarten to 12th) and higher education institutions. While India has been proactive on liberalization, the education sector has remained largely untouched by the reforms process. Archaic legislations mandate all formal educational institutions in India to be run as 'not-for-profit' centres by not-for-profit entities viz. a society, trust or a section 25 company. Any surplus funds generated in the process of running K-12 schools or higher educational institutions have to be ploughed back into the same school or educational institutions under the same trust and no dividends can be distributed to the members of the not-for-profit entities. Further, the constitution of the trust/society should be such that it does not vest control in a single individual or members of a family, i.e., the trust/society should not be proprietary in character and the educational institutions sh

Middle School Science Experiments Made Fun and Easy

Middle school science experiments should be more complex than the ones you would have done in elementary school. At this level, the science experiments you are doing will be preparing you for the more involved science projects you will be doing in high school, when you will most likely be entering science fairs to compete for prizes. By this grade, you will need to do your project mainly on your own and be able to explain your project in full, write a report and make up a display. One of the interesting middle school science experiments is to see if the growth of a plant is affected by the amount of light it receives. For this project you will need three identical plants, three cabinets and three light sources, a 25 watt bulb, a 60 watt bulb and a 100 watt bulb. Mount one of the bulbs in each of the cabinets and label them so you know which bulb is in which cabinet. Then water them and check them once a day for about ten days and record your results in a chart. Another great midd

Technology Can Raise Our Stress Levels

In the 21st century technology has developed so far that we are able to contact people on the other side of the world instantaneously, we can quickly download information to our mobile phones and can now connect to our work computers from internet cafes, from the pub and even from the garden! Has technology actually made our lives easier or more complicated? In the early part of the last century, much of the technology that we use today would be considered witchcraft... machines that fly not only across the globe but into space! Moving pictures? Mobile phones? Can you imagine the reaction to all of these? In the middle of the 20th century human kind was almost on the moon... so it was not so far a leap to imagine that by the year 2000 we would be holidaying on it! Computers had already made our lives easier by cracking codes during the second world war... in a far shorter time than a team of humans could. So we can see that some people believed that technology would make the live
