Learning style preferences of students 2017-2019 batch of diploma in pharmacy of National Institute of Health Sciences (NIHS)– Sri Lanka

The term ‘learning style’ is defined as different and unique ways used by individuals as they prepare to learn and recall information. The VARK questionnaire is used to study learning styles. VARK model was introduced by Neil Fleming, which classifies the learning preferences based on the sensory pathways into four models. V- Visual, A- Aural, R- Read/Write, K-Kinaesthetic. Data were collected by using a questionnaire. VARK questionnaire is the standard one for analysing learning styles. A total of 92(74.19%) were multi-modal in their learning preference and only 32 students (25.81%) were uni-modal. The uni-modal preferences were K-12.90%, A- 4.84%, R-4.84%, V- 3.23%. The overall distribution of scores of all modalities of learning styles. The commonest learning preference was the multimodel category, of which the highest percentage was seen in the VARK - 43.55%. Other multimodal preferences were VAR-6.45%, VKA-3.22% ARK -7.25% VRK-1.61% RK – 1.61% VK – 2.42% AK-4.03%AR- 4.03% .The total individual scores in each category. This study has revealed a number of important facts. It's a more multi-modal percentage than in previous studies. When teaching pharmacy students, multiple methods should be use.

A study on floating families in Dhaka City: Problems and prospects

Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh. There are many types of problems in this city. One of these is the population problem. A large number of floating families live here. They face many problems here. They also create many problems by getting involved in antisocial activities. This study tries to present the socio-economic conditions of floating families in Dhaka city. It reveals the problems and prospects of floating families in the city. For this,200 respondents were selected and a semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect data from respondents. Data were analyzed using MS Excel. This study tries to find out some factors of floating families such as education, number of family members, monthly income, and expenditure of family member, living conditions, ownership of property, allowance from GO and NGO. Causes of migration etc. Hence in this research, there are some recommendations that will be helpful for policymakers to make effective policy.

Machine images and application marketplace- Cloud PaaS and SaaS for enterprise

Although cloud computing is in all mouth today it seems that there exists only a little evidence in the literature that it is more economically effective than classical data center approaches. Cloud computing is revolutionizing however information technology resources and services area unit used and managed whereas the revolution comes with new security issues. Among these is that the drawback of firmly managing the virtual-machine images that encapsulate every application of the cloud. This paper explains how the Machine Images and Application Marketplace are the new revolution in providing Cloud PaaS and SaaS for an Enterprise. In this paper, we will be discussing different cloud services, Machine Images and Application marketplaces which uses multiple and different API’s to provide services to the Enterprise. We will talk about multiple Marketplace service providers like Kong, AWS, Microsoft Azure, etc. This paper is done by taking and analyzing a survey held through Google forms which targeted working professionals from the IT industry who may or may not be using Cloud services for their organization. A total of 56 responses were analyzed and formulated for this research paper.

No end in sight – Television is here to stay

When video began to stream over mobile and computers, speculation gusted about the end of television. Just as there were speculations about TV replacing radio or TV replacing cinema. But given the recent proliferation of FM channels and number of movies releasing every week and hitting the box office, it is clear that one media did not kill the other. The same is with the television and the new media. Technological convergence and explosion of new media did not and cannot end television. This study clearly establishes that television is alive, stronger and bigger today.

Stock prediction marketing using machine learning

The share market has traditionally been the proving grounds for machine learning applications. There is a lack of an algorithm which can find the heuristic reasoning of humans based on current events/trends. The proposed system is an attempt to reconcile computed sentiments alongside traditional/more common data mining. Datasets consisting of historical data as well as recent headlines will be mined to ascertain stock price movement. In the proposed system it is to be hoped, more accurately predict stock price movement by emulating instinctual reasoning by implementing sentiment analysis.

Power electronics assisted OLTC for grid voltage regulation

High utilization of co-generation has given rise to the occurrence of voltage fluctuations in the electrical distribution network. The paper provides a brief idea of the designing of the partially rated, Power Electronic assisted On Load Tap Changer (OLTC) transformer. Most of the tap changers implemented traditionally are the mechanically operated which are having their own advantages and disadvantages such as arcing during switching, high maintenance due to mechanical contacts, service cost and slow reaction time for an operation. Implementation of electronic tap changer has drastically removed the most of shortfall which can be observed at mechanical tap changer. The rapid growth in the field of electronic industries has allowed us for the use of power semiconductor devices, such as the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT), TRIAC, MOSFET and GTO has assisted us for the proper functioning of OLTC regulators. This paper uses TRIAC as the voltage regulator. The paper gives an idea for designing of a fast-acting OLTC regulator with tapings on the primary side (hv side) hence allowing to reduce losses and to have faster action.
