Teacher Education: Situation at Present in Institutions and A Move Toward Effectiveness
Abstract: Can we always prove that what we (including teacher–educators) do is effective? The word ‘effective’ may be interpreted in terms of maximum progress at minimum of efforts. Teacher’s effectiveness is vastly dependent upon the other human factor, i.e., the learners. Teachers' effectiveness is observed by others not in the lights of what they do in their classroom teaching but who they are as a person is given more importance. Experience …

Piezoelectric Nanoparticles Loaded with Curcumin for Cancer Treatment
Abstract: Conventional cancer chemotherapy treatments are often compromised by systemic toxicity which starts from the lack of tumor specificity of administered anticancer drugs. The side effects limit the dose of the drug that can be administrated, making effective cancer treatment difficult. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery has the potential to overcome this challenge by targeted delivery to tumor and taking the advantage of tumor’s natural leaky vasculature to increase the accumulation of drug-loaded …

Pulse Oximeter using PSoC
Abstract: A pulse oximeter to measure the oxygen saturation in blood as well as heart rate was developed using PSoC. The method proposed here is to transmit light of two different wavelengths through the finger and tissues and to measure the change in absorption intensities. The signals are obtained as photoplethysmograph (PPG) waveforms. The pulse oximeter finds the variations in both the waveforms and calculates the SpO2 and heart rate of …
