Abstract: Emotional maturity is a process in which the personality is continuously striving for greater sense of emotional health, both intrapsychically and intra-personality. The characteristics of an emotionally mature are hetero-sexuality, appreciation of attitude and behavior of others, tendency to adopt the attitudes and habits of others and capacity to delay his own responses. Therefore, the emotionally mature is not one who necessarily has resolved all conditions that aroused anxiety and hostility but it is continuously in process of seeing himself in clear perspective, continually involved in a struggle to gain healthy integration of feeling, thinking action. The objective of the study was to study the emotional maturity of higher secondary school students in relation to gender and type of family variation in total and component wise variations. Normative survey method was adopted. A sample of 100 students from 4 schools of Kolkata was selected by simple random sampling procedure. Emotional Maturity Scale (EMS-SB) developed by Singh and Bharagava (2005) was used for data collection. Findings of the study were that most of the students are emotionally immature and there is difference in emotional maturity in terms of type of family variation.

Abstract: The concept of God has been a central theme in philosophical discourse since ancient times. Philosophers across different traditions have attempted to explore, define, and justify the existence and nature of God through various philosophical arguments. Classical philosophy presented influential theistic arguments such as the cosmological, teleological, and ontological arguments to establish the rational basis of belief in God. In modern philosophy, these arguments have been critically examined, reformulated, and challenged by both theistic and atheistic thinkers. This research article critically examines the concept of God in classical and modern philosophical traditions by analyzing the major theistic arguments and the criticisms raised against them. The study explores the philosophical contributions of thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Anselm, Aquinas, Descartes, Kant, and contemporary philosophers. It also investigates the relevance of theistic arguments in contemporary philosophical debates concerning faith, reason, and metaphysics. The study argues that while traditional arguments for the existence of God may not provide definitive proof, they continue to offer significant philosophical insights into metaphysical inquiry, moral reasoning, and the search for ultimate reality.

Abstract: Mental Health delineates either emotional or cognitive well-being of an individual. When it is absent it becomes a mental disorder. From the disciplinary viewpoint of positive psychology, mental health is all about the ability of an individual to enjoy life to the fullest and maintain a balance between the life efforts and life activities. Mental ill health causes the feeling of shame, guilt, rejection, isolation and tension etc. and makes the man perceive the world and life as dangerous. Common mental health problems arise from life events as well as the pressure of study-and this is true for students as it is for anyone else. The objectives of the study are to find out significant difference if any in the mental health of students in relation to personal variables like-gender, locale, Socio-Economic Status and type of family. The descriptive method of survey was adopted. The sample of this study consisted of higher secondary students of Murshidabad district. Mental Health Inventory of Talesara and Bano (2011) was used for data collection. The findings of the study were that there was significant difference in mental health of students in relation to gender, locale, Socio-Economic Status and type of family variations.

Abstract: This paper engraves folk education and portrays as keen as possible to promote the development of India’s cultural heritage. History books start their journey by saying to children that if we don’t know our past, we can’t progress towards our future, which means we have to start our journey from the back, which is the origin of the future. The root means the core of our culture, civilization, and human life. Cultivation of the core culture of human civilization does mean our folk culture. Folk culture is an umbrella where so many tools, such as language, music, painting, literature, dance, lifestyle, sculpture and all, take their place. This paper shows the restoration and preservation of these components, which will surely help to develop Indian cultural heritage in line with NEP-2020.

Abstract: Educational research plays a vital role in shaping the quality, accessibility, and effectiveness of education systems across the world. It provides a scientific and systematic approach to understanding educational processes, teaching–learning practices, curriculum development, and policy formulation. The various aspects of educational research—such as theoretical inquiry, empirical investigation, evaluation studies, and policy-oriented research—help identify challenges and opportunities within education systems. In the context of globalization, educational research contributes significantly to the development of human resources by promoting innovation, critical thinking, skill development, and inclusive education. It also supports evidence-based decision-making in educational planning and management, thereby improving the quality of human capital required for sustainable economic and social development. Furthermore, educational research encourages the integration of technology, interdisciplinary learning, and culturally responsive pedagogy, which are essential for preparing individuals to meet the demands of the global knowledge economy. Thus, the findings and applications of educational research have far-reaching implications for strengthening human resource development, enhancing workforce competencies, and fostering global cooperation and development.

Abstract: The rapid advancement of digital technologies has fundamentally reshaped the landscape of education, particularly in the domain of English language learning. No longer confined to traditional textbooks and teacher-centered instruction, contemporary classrooms are increasingly characterized by the integration of digital tools that enhance interactivity, accessibility, and learner autonomy. This research article explores how digital tools are transforming English classroom practices, examining their impact on language acquisition, pedagogy, learner engagement, and assessment. Drawing upon interdisciplinary perspectives from educational technology, applied linguistics, and pedagogy, the study argues that digital tools not only facilitate language learning but also redefine the roles of teachers and learners. It further discusses the opportunities, challenges, and implications of integrating digital technologies into English education in the twenty-first century.
