Inquiry-Based Learning Approaches to Enhance Engagement among Post Graduate Students in Research Methodology Courses
Authors: Et.al Aspalila Shapii 
Published: April 2021

Lecturers teaching research methodology courses often feel concerned when discovering many students attempted research without the necessary research methodology skills even after completed compulsory faculty-organized research methodology (RM) courses. The lack of research knowledge and skills is evident when the submitted research proposal deemed not robust enough to qualify for a feasible study. Scholars identify lack of deep learning during RM courses as the main factor since the courses are perceived as not having context and uninteresting hence there was little engagement with the material. Inquiry-based Reflectice Learning (IBL) has been argued to effectively rectify this as its pedagogies involve students in discovery learning that uses activities that are regulated by students. IBL requires students to apply questioning and researching skills to explore, conduct analysis, communicate, and reflect on information. In the study, inquiry-based instruction was used to encourage students to develop multiple perspectives and encourages empathy with the subject and eventually enhance engagement. The study involves a reflective cases study of research methodology courses to explore the lecturer’s classroom practice using IBL and the students’ experiences participating in IBL activities. st. The methodology used involve conducting a needs analysis via Google Form survey, interviewing and document analysis of the lecturers’ teaching plans and field notes and the reflections by both the lecturers and students. The findings from the survey indicate that most students admit they have minimal research skills and require assistance particularly practical research skills. Data from the reflections and field notes also show that students feel engaged with discovery activities conducted, while the lecturer feel students understand better and more engaged with IBL activities conducted. The study has shed significant input on the needs of RM students, participants’ experiences, and the challenges of implementing RM course using IBL. Some recommendations to facilitate more deep learning experiences among postgraduate students taking RM courses are also proposed.

Authors: Et.al Mr.S.Venkateswara Rao 
Published: April 2021

The crisis of identity is one of the major issues of mankind.It does not confine to any single country, region, religion or ethnic group. Identity crisis prevails all over the world. It is also not confined to any particular age group people though the identity problem is predominantly visible in the life of younger generation. When we concentrate on the crisis of identity in Indian context, it has become the major problem of current educated youth.

So far, many writers of fiction have focused on the identity problem and Chetan Bhagat is no exception on this list. Since identity crisis, mostly, seems to be the major problem of the age group people between 18 to 30, Bhagat has appropriately dealt with it in his fiction. The educated younger generation, in general, face problems to get well settled in life after completion of their education.The students, now-a-days, have been facing numerous problems in their academic career itself to beat the crisis. Chetan Bhagat as a young entertainer, attempts to depict all their problems in his fiction. The problems include Mindless mugging (No room for creativity and Innovativeness), lack of Disciplinary Ethics, Rigidity, Monotony in Academic work, Students’ Unrest, Fear, Insecurity, Controlled Stress and Suicide under Parental and Academic Pressure etc. For the purpose of my paper, I have chosen to study the identity problem crisis in youth of contemporary Indian Society and its portrayal in Chetan Bhagat’s maiden novel, Five Point Someone-What not to do at IIT.

In the proposed paper an approach for image transmission with security and also improvement of the gray-scale (8-bit image) image flexible stenographic system using LSB approach. In this process a secret key of 80 bits is applied while embedding the message into the cover image. To provide high security and also confidentiality of the data a key stego-key is applied. The proposed method the information bits are embedded adaptively into the cover-image pixels. With this method a high embedding capacity in terms of hiding the data is provided and also better imperceptibility is also achieved. The major advantage of this method verifies by the Security method of Digital Signature. It is to be verified whether the attacker has made a trials to change the Secret information in the present inside the stego-image which is intended to be kept secret throughout the communication process. In this technique the embedding process to hide the message data present in the transformed spatial domain of the cover image and makes use of a simple Exclusive-OR operation based on Security checking method of verifying the signature digitally by using key size value of 140 bits is used to check the integrity from the stego-image. The confidential data which is embedded can be retrieved from stego-images. The security level is enhanced by using the stego key and by adaptive steganography data inconspicuousness is improved.
A Case Study on Hospital Readmission Prediction Using Deep Learning Algorithms on EHRs
Authors: Et.al B. Sushrith 
Published: April 2021

In this paper, focus is made on predicting the patients who are going to be re-admitted back in the hospital before discharge using latest deep-learning algorithms is applied on the electronic health records of patients which is a time-series data. To begin with the study of the data and its analysis this project deployed the conventional supervised ML algorithms like the Logistic Regression, Naïve Bayes, Random Forest and SVM and compared their performances on different portion sizes of dataset. The final model built uses deep-learning architectures such as RNN and LSTM to improve the prediction results taking advantage of the time series data. Another feature added has been of low dimensional descriptions of medical concepts as the input to the model. Ultimately, this work tests, validates, and explains the developed system using the MIMIC-III dataset, which contains around 38000 patient’s information and about 61,155 patient’s data who admitted in ICU, duration of 10 years. The support from this exhaustive dataset is used to train the models that provide healthcare workers with proper information regarding their discharge and readmission in hospitals. These ML and deep learning models are used to know about the patient who is getting to be readmitted in the ICU before his discharge will help the hospital to allocate resources properly and also reduce the financial risk of patients.
In order to reduce ICU readmission that can be avoided, hospitals have to be able to recognize patients who have a higher risk of ICU readmission. Those patients can then continue to stay in the ICU so that they will not have the risk of getting admit back to the hospital. Also, the resources of hospitals that were required for avoidable readmission can be re-allocated to more critical areas in the hospital that need them. A more effective model of predicting readmission system can play an important role in helping hospitals and ICU doctors to find the patients who are going to be readmitted before discharge. To build this system here we use different ML and deep-learning algorithms. Predictive models based on huge amounts of data are made to predict the patients who are going to be admitted back in the hospital after discharge.
