Abstract: Understanding the food choices of children is essential for promoting lifelong healthy eating habits and addressing rising concerns related to childhood nutrition. This study, titled “Understanding Food Choices in Childhood: A Study of School-Going Children’s Preferences”, explores the dietary preferences and influencing factors among children aged 10–14 years. Using a sample of 100 students, the research analyzes their inclination toward various food categories— such as fast foods, fruits, vegetables, dairy, and processed snacks— while also examining the role of parental behavior, socio-economic status, media exposure, and school environment. The data reveals that parental influence on children’s food preferences is multifaceted, combining both positive and negative practices. The data shows that food preferences in children are shaped by a complex interplay of external and internal factors, with media influence and socio-economic status being the most significant. The study suggests a positive trend, indicating that parental modeling of healthy eating habits may influence children’s choices. The study underscores the need for collaborative efforts between parents, educators, and policymakers to instill healthy food habits early in life. Strengthening nutritional education, regulating food marketing to children, and ensuring access to wholesome foods are critical steps toward improving child health outcomes.

Abstract: Blended learning is a combination of online and in-person instruction where the online component essentially replaces rather than enhances face-to-face interaction time. In terms of content and delivery, in person classroom practices are integrated with computer-mediated activities, even if students still attend traditional classrooms with teachers present. Additionally, it is employed in training and professional development environments. It is challenging to have a general understanding of blended learning because it is so context dependent. By combining best practices from both formats, the blended learning approach improves learning experiences and knowledge retention without undervaluing the advantages of in-person instruction from a teacher. In blended learning, students have some discretion over time, location, path, and pace, but both teachers and students must be physically present. Now-a-days, “blended learning” has become very popular in today’s tech-dominated society, particularly among parents, educators, and students in general. Students’ learning experiences are more effective overall because to this teaching strategy. The education sector has been greatly impacted by the quick development of digital technology and its application in practically every industry, which has raised demand for digital teaching methods globally.

Abstract: A new category of nucleophilic aromatic substitutions, short for “conducted” SNAr instead of the more conventional “two-step” SNAr processes, has recently emerged as a result of advances in computational and experimental chemistry. In contrast to conventional SNAr reactions, which need substitutions that remove electrons, which greatly stimulate aromatic ring, concerted routes do not necessitate such groups. Organic chemistry revolves on substitution processes using aromatic rings. Some more processes that are regularly found include electrophilic aromatic substitution, SNAr nucleophilic aromatic substitution, SNArH, and vicarious nucleophilic, which are separate yet similar. The traditional stepwise method was considered the common mechanism for aromatic nucleophilic substitutions, whereas concerted nucleophilic substitutions were very unusual.

Abstract: Cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid pesticide, has been widely applied in agriculture and domestic pest control. The present study was conducted to evaluate the dose-dependent effects of Cypermethrin on the estrous cycle of female mice (Musmusculus). Mice were divided into four groups: control, low dose (1.38 mg/kg), medium dose (2.76 mg/kg), and high dose (5.52 mg/kg), and were administered the compound orally for 15 days. Vaginal smears were collected daily to identify estrous cycle stages. Results indicated that control mice exhibited regular cycling, while low-dose mice displayed slight delays in phase transitions. Medium-dose mice showed prolonged diestrus phases and reduced frequency of estrus. High-dose mice presented severe irregularities, with extended diestrus and near absence of estrus. One-way ANOVA followed by post hoc analysis confirmed significant differences between control and treated groups, particularly at medium and high doses. It was concluded that Cypermethrin altered reproductive function in a dose-dependent manner, emphasizing its potential reproductive toxicity

Abstract: Eco-literacy had been increasingly recognized as a vital educational component for fostering environmental responsibility and climate action. This study had examined how eco-literacy had been integrated into school curricula at both global and national levels, with a focus on India as a case study. A mixed-methods design had been adopted, utilizing curriculum documents, policy reports, and academic literature to assess the presence and depth of eco-literacy components. Global programs such as the Eco-Schools and GLOBE Program had been found to enhance experiential and participatory learning, aligning with UNESCO’s Education for Sustainable Development framework. In India, eco-literacy had been strongly embedded in primary-level education through dedicated Environmental Studies but had shown a marked decline in secondary levels. Comparative analysis had revealed strengths in early exposure and activity-based pedagogy, yet highlighted barriers including inadequate teacher training, unequal resource distribution, and exam-focused learning. The findings had indicated that sustained eco-literacy required curriculum continuity, policy support, and community engagement to ensure alignment with climate action goals
