One of the core pillars of the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is the goal of quality education, which seeks to provide inclusive, equitable, and high-quality education for all. In this context, digital technologies have become vital in advancing this objective. As technology becomes increasingly integrated into every part of our daily lives, the significance of teacher professional development in the digital age cannot be overstated. Educators are tasked with keeping up with the ever-evolving landscape of new trends and technological tools to ensure they deliver effective and engaging lessons to their students. Fullan (2006) defines teacher development as a process where educators gain new insights into teaching methods and practices, alongside a deeper understanding of content and resources. In this research paper, we will dive into the meaning, objective, and value of ongoing teacher professional development. It also highlights the evolving nature of teacher development in response to changes in pedagogy, content, technology and digital literacy.

Language is essential to education because it facilitates communication, instruction, and cognitive growth. It has an impact on students' comprehension, critical thinking, and academic performance. Language policies are essential in determining educational fairness in multilingual cultures. According to many researches, early childhood education that is grounded in the mother tongue promotes improved cognitive development and conceptual understanding. Although it necessitates qualified educators, suitable resources, and encouraging regulations, multilingual education fosters cultural identification and inclusivity. Higher dropout rates result from academic challenges experienced by students who have trouble understanding the language of instruction. Education systems must encourage multilingual education, establish inclusive language policies, and provide teachers with the tools they need to handle linguistic variety in order to address this. Fostering fair, efficient, and culturally sensitive learning settings that support lifelong learning and social advancement requires an understanding of the close connection between language and education.

Leila Aboulela is a British author of Sudanese origin, recognized for her insightful novels that delve into themes of identity, migration, faith, and cultural dislocation. Born in 1964 in Cairo and raised in Sudan, her subsequent relocation to the United Kingdom profoundly shaped her literary voice. Her narratives frequently highlight the challenges faced by Muslim women as they navigate life in Western contexts while remaining connected to their faith and cultural roots. Aboulela's first novel, The Translator (1999), received widespread acclaim for its exploration of love, spirituality, and cultural tensions. She further examined these themes in her subsequent works, including Minaret (2005), Lyrics Alley (2010), The Kindness of Enemies (2015), and Bird Summons (2019), skillfully intertwining historical and modern elements. Her writing is noted for its lyrical quality and a strong focus on religious faith as a source of resilience. Through her novels, Aboulela confronts stereotypes and offers a genuine portrayal of the experiences of Muslim women, establishing herself as a prominent figure in contemporary literature. In literature, the theme of women's identity crises is frequently examined by authors such as Virginia Woolf, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Sylvia Plath, and Simone de Beauvoir. Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own (1929) contends that the creative and intellectual capabilities of women are hindered by economic and social limitations. In a similar vein, Gilman’s The Yellow Wallpaper (1892) illustrates a woman's mental deterioration as she grapples with societal constraints. Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar (1963) explores a young woman's battle with mental health issues, societal gender roles, and career aspirations, highlighting the sense of suffocation that women often experience within a patriarchal framework.

Marketing mix is a combination of elements that the companies use to create a marketing strategy. The most common version of the marketing mix is the Four P’s Product, Price, Place and Promotion. The marketing mix thus includes the multiple areas of focus as a part of comprehensive marketing plan. The term often refers to a common classification that began as the Four P’s:- Product ,Price, Place and Promotion. Typically, successful marketers and businesses consider the four P’s when they create the marketing plan and strategies to effectively market to their target audience. So we can say that marketing mix is a tool or tactics used to promote a product or services in the market and to sell it successfully. Additional three new P’s were also added in the existing 4P’s Model to have a proper and thorough understanding of the marketing mix. The additional three P’s are People, Process and Physical Evidence. These are known as Service marketing mix. In the year 1990 the 4 P’s were tailored to the four C’s. In the competitive world the consumer is supreme and is the king of the market. Also the Modern marketing concept focus more on consumer satisfaction than on the business profis. A good Marketing mix results into excellent consumer service that leads to profit maximization and growth of a firm.

An education system that includes all students and welcomes and supports them to learn, whoever they are and whatever their abilities or requirements. This means making sure that teaching and curriculum, school buildings, classroom, play areas, transport and toilets are appropriate for all children at all levels. Inclusive education means all children learn together in the same neighboring schools. No one should be excluded. Every child has a right to inclusive education, including children with disabilities. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) both clearly express the aim of guaranteeing quality education for all and the importance of providing the required support to develop each child’s potential. Inclusive education is a broad concept that includes all groups of children who are at risk of being excluded from education. Such as children with learning disabilities, street children, working children, differently abled children, children of migrant laborer and girls living difficult circumstances. Inclusive education means a philosophy of education that promotes the education of all pupils in regular school where disabled children study with normal children in their locality. They learn and play together and enhance their capacities both. It is about how we develop and design our schools, classroom, programs, and activities for the benefits of all students. A common learning environment is not a place where students with intellectual disabilities learn in isolation from their peers but it is an environment where instruction are design to delivered to students of mixed abilities and with their peer group in community school. While being responsive to their individual needs as a learner.

In this radically changing human society, many educationalists believe that Artificial intelligence (AI) can play a vital role in education and humanities but it is not necessary that it will always be beneficial. Artificial intelligence can resolve the issues in education and can accelerate teaching and learning process that can lead progress of the nation. There are various ways in which Artificial intelligence can enhance education process. The most important one is AI tools that can generate high-quality images, customized content, and focused research materials enhancing student’s interest in learning. Artificial Intelligence engages the students in learning effectively which saves the valuable time of teachers. Artificial intelligence in the humanities field means to analyze and interpret data of human-generated information, like texts, images, and historical documents. It allows us to know about our veiled past easily. It helps the teachers to show the visual representation of the documents. The key aspects of Artificial intelligence in humanities are Digital humanities, Data analysis, Translation and language processing, Image analysis, Text mining and analysis. Overall, Artificial intelligence is becoming a valuable tool for humanities research, enabling scholars to explore vast amounts of data but it's crucial to use these technologies responsibly, acknowledging their disadvantages like job losses, privacy concerns, security risks, and lack of AI knowledge.

The paper is related with the inclusion of experiential learning in curriculum for special education teacher training courses and discusses that how experiential learning is effective in enhancing academic achievement, self-confidence, mastery over the content, self-management and quality of leadership in children with visual impairment. Experiential learning includes engaging the students in direct experience and is focused in developing knowledge, understanding, skill and co-operation. The approach of teaching in experiential classroom is different than traditional classroom. Experiential learning activities for normal children are helpful in learning through experiences, systematize their work, evaluating their own performance and furnish a suitable direction for long term learning. If we throw light on the chapter IV of RPWD there is a provision that government shall provide formal and non-formal vocational and skill training schemes and programmes of person with disability with sufficient support. As a result if experiential learning is included in teacher training courses for special education, than it may prove a potential tool for enhancing learning experiences of children with visual impairment. This paper proposes that experiential learning should be made a part of teacher training courses for teacher educators at D.Ed., B.Ed. and M.Ed. level. The possible benefits of inclusion of experiential learning would lead to enhance academic achievement of children with visual impairments and help them to retain material relatively for longer period of time. The paper concludes that RCI may modify its teacher education curriculum to incorporate experiential learning a mandatory part in all teacher training courses.

Over the last half a century and particularly, in the recent decades, teaching learning has been undergoing drastic changes. There has been a shift towards student centered classrooms with teacher’s role more as facilitator of learning rather than an autocratic master. Unlike in the past when the teacher was entrusted with transferring the contents of curriculum to a passive audience of students, today new experiments are being tried out in the classroom that includes project based learning, development of thinking skills, and discovery learning approaches. As part of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) the textbooks have also been modified (in my opinion, to make them worse than before in many respects). Many teachers are not properly trained in implementing the concepts behind the new curriculum and many are not equipped to properly implement the curriculum.

Abstract India is one of the leading global education destinations, where education is viewed as acquiring knowledge and information. The process involves transferring skills and knowledge from one individual to another. With rapid technological advancements, nearly every aspect of life has evolved, including communication, collaboration, learning, and teaching. Teaching in the 21st century presents a new perspective, as learning now occurs constantly, anywhere, and on any subject, catering to diverse learning styles. This brings us to the question: What does it mean to be a "Teacher of the 21st century"? Exceptional students are shaped by exceptional teachers. While various factors influence student achievement, the most crucial element is a knowledgeable and inspiring teacher. Therefore, it is essential to focus on training and supporting both novice and experienced educators effectively. Today's students are more advanced and mature compared to previous generations. Modern education now emphasizes critical thinking, interpersonal communication, information literacy, technological proficiency, and essential life skills. To effectively teach 21st-century learners, teachers must understand their students and their perspectives on modern technology. Building meaningful professional relationships with students allows educators to inspire creativity and foster learning, helping students succeed in a globally connected society. Teachers should collaborate with students to create new learning experiences, function as active members of learning communities, and facilitate education through diverse methods. These qualities are essential for 21st-century educators, as millions of Indian students still strive for quality education. With India being home to the third-largest higher education system in the world, the role of a teacher comes with great responsibility.

Despite the widespread recognition of teacher effectiveness as a crucial factor in achieving favorable student results, educators worldwide often endure chronic stress, which can impede their performance. This research looks at the multidimensional relationship between teacher stress and effectiveness. A systematic review of literature from 2000 to 2024 was carried out utilizing key educational and psychological databases. The studies were chosen for their focus on teacher stress (burnout, occupational stress, and acute stressors), teacher effectiveness (classroom management, instructional quality, and student engagement), and the mediating role of school climate and teacher well-being. According to the findings, increased stress levels—often caused by severe workloads, complex classroom dynamics, limited administrative support, and quick systemic changes (such as those induced by the COVID-19 pandemic)—are often connected with decreased teacher effectiveness. Stress appears to hinder classroom management, limit instructional clarity, and harm teacher-student interactions, all of which undermine student progress. However, some research shows weak or non-significant associations, implying that the impact of stress on effectiveness may be mitigated by individual resilience and external support networks. Mindfulness training, for example, has demonstrated potential in terms of stress reduction and classroom performance. The implications for policy, professional growth, and future research initiatives are explored.

By recognizing the intricate relationships between language and education, we can work towards creating more inclusive, equitable, and effective educational systems that promote language development, language diversity, and academic success for all students. Continued research is needed to better understand the complex relationships between language and education. Policymakers should prioritize language education, promoting language diversity and inclusivity in educational settings and the teachers should receive training and support to develop their language awareness and teaching skills.
