I am Brainstorming

Every citizen of India has Unique Identification Number: Aadhaar. Many websites in health care, railways and almost all sites use your personal details. But the problem is, some times these personal details can be inaccurate. There can be many reasons for it. e.g. Storing the birth data of child in eMunicipality portal: The nurse writes about Mother and Father details in a form. From between writing the form to feeding it into the eMunicipality portal, there are lots of chances of feeding wrong data. Some of the reasons are: 1) Listening error of nurse, so the nurse write the wrong information 2) Laziness and lack of time for nurse to fill all the fields on the paper form 3) Spelling errors of name and address details. 4) Person who is doing data entry in eMunicipality portal unable to recognize the handwriting (as we all know doctors write in horrible handwriting, which an expert can only read) 5) Person who is doing data entry, fills the compulsory field with arbitrary data (such as

Share your views on quora:  http://qr.ae/RoAGa0 Today I tried dialing to police with number 100 to report a simple fraud call that my aunt received. The person who called was asking for ATM pin. When my aunt was able to find the call was fraud, the person started speaking in vulgar language. When I said, I will report it to police, he said that "Police kya tumhara uncle lagta hai" (Is police your uncle). See how fearless they are. There is not even a little fear of police. And this case is not new. Its a general issue with most families. When I complained about it to police by dialing 100. They said to come to police station to report the case. I can understand that police might be receiving lots of call that are important. But why there is no helpline numbers to report such problem. If police are hesitant to receive such call, then there should be a whatsapp number to report such cases so that people can text them and later police can review it and take action based upon the

1) MOOCs for Teacher: Every body cares about student education, but no body thinks about teachers. They can only transfer knowledge only if they themselves are well educated with the subjects and knows how to teach scientifically so that the teaching is most productive and knowledge reaches to maximum students. Like students, teachers should also be motivated daily. So there should be 1 hour MOOCs for teachers even, where they can listen the lectures and appear exams. 2) Including courses like Learning How to Learn ( Page on coursera.org ) and Becoming a Resilient Person ( edX ) and many other study techniques in the syllabus itself. So that students knows how he should study productively without rote learning the things and also learn to cope up with the stress. 3) MOOCs for Students: In the first phase for about 6 months we should give MOOCs for teachers, than when they are well versed with all the computer technologies, than time for MOOCs for students. But computer (e.g.  cheaper R

Quora link for discussion:  http://qr.ae/7QDdsd I feel that CSIR-NET has better question pattern than UGC NET exam. Making no negative marking will allow a person to attempt all the questions whether he/she knows that answer or not. Is it good to attempt the question that a student don't know or no idea on it and still get marks for it? It will also increase the probability that mere destiny can help them to qualify the exam, by randomly attempting the questions.  University Grants Commission - NET

Today I went to a govt. school to discuss about my Idea of Innovate4DigitalIndia. Click Here First let me describe what are the good things I found in the school:--- 1) School uniform: Students specially the higher class students were wearing decent school uniforms and was clean. 2) Food provided to the students: As today was Wednesday, students were given boiled egg and peas -potato curry with rice. I had my lunch there. The food was eatable and nearly nice. Only the peas curry was little watery. 3) Building was a bit good. Not that horrible. It was colored and many thoughts of scientists were written. 4) Teachers were also very co-operative and ready to listen to my ideas heartfully. I had also a discussion with the teachers for about 3 an hour. The discussion was about students and teachers and their problems. Now let me describe what I didn't like in the school, although its many but I will describe some of the fundamental necessities of the school and their solutions. 1) First

This will help for both people and govt. to communicate properly with each other. Also help MPs and MLAs to campaign properly, by showing their work.  No need of poster or wastage of papers. They can also add the photographs of their work that has been done. It will improve transparency and minimize corruption. I think govt. should initiate this approach, as a result politicians will be encouraged for subscribe To Do list, because people will also want them to subscribe. They may not make it compulsory, but still I think most politician will subscribe it because people and media may ask why they are not subscribing it and not showing their work. Also a good politician will always get a chance to win again. People may also provide feedback and opinions of their work in the website.

Share your views at: http://qr.ae/7hOcoJ These fundamental subjects such as physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics should be made in chunks, so that subject that is needed is taught, other wise that can be skipped and other specialized subject can be taught in that time. Also I think way to specialization should start from 10th class, not 11th class.

Write your views at: http://qr.ae/7yjTT4 I was looking at the syllabus of CBSE, and its very up to date, but some features are still missing. Biological data has become humongous, whether data for genomics or proteomics etc. For handling such big data, we need bioinformatics. When a biotechnologist produces some data, whether from NGS etc method, who is going to analyse it. In the syllabus of Bioinformatics that is taught in colleges after 10+2, there is no python, no statistical programming such as R etc.  Also no analysis of data produced from latest technology such as RNA-seq data, ChiP-seq etc. Please also look at the Edx courses of Genome Analysis and many other courses that require informatics in biological field. e.g. Case study: Variant Discovery and Genotyping given by HarvardX.  Also look at other case studies. What you people have to say about it?

Share your views at: http://qr.ae/7hbIgQ Now statistics has become a very important field, because of machine learning. Statistics should be introduced in the course with very up to date syllabus and syllabus of it should also contain compulsorily programming languages such as python and R Its better if they make python compulsory, no matter what subjects student opt for. One of the best book I would recommend for fundamental is Elementary Statistics by Mario Triola, 9th Edn. But it does not contain machine learning. Problems of it are really good and should be solved along with programming even

Share your views at: http://qr.ae/7Gi2oR Let me explain the situation of Education System if a student becomes a web developer or a mobile app developer Most Indian parents and society are only worried about child employment. They never think about their children passion.  So first they allow you to choose between Engineering or Medical because there is no other field that an average Indian can think. As medical entrance is highly tough, so an average student is likely to fail in it. So after 10+2 exam, student may go for medical coaching or JEE coaching for students who aspire to join some IITs.  If medical,  one year in coaching has been wasted. Even for JEE coaching one year is wasted because most students will not get a seat in IITs, so they will join some other private college, so coaching becomes unnecessary. So finally after one year, only one option is left that is engineering.  So in engineering students usually choose Computer Science with syllabus that time forgot. They will

Share your views at:  http://qr.ae/77YeoE Nowadays, scientists use computers for almost every thing - whether it is a mathematical problem, physics, chemistry or biology. Why not make students learn python in higher secondary schools with its application in science? Why do students have to memorize straight forward equation such as radio activity decay or Nernst equation? Why not solve them through the python programming language? Why not teach them simulations when they start college? I would say that python is a very futuristic language, easy to learn, and human readable. Also there are so many packages available for scientific computation. It is also open source. I would also say that students should start learning Linux in higher secondary schools. I would request Smiriti Irani to include it in syllabus as soon as possible.  Also students can be provided credit card-sized single-board computers such as Raspberrypi, if a student is unable to afford desktops or laptops.

Lectures and Materials can be made free all over the country, but we can still raise funds by making tie ups with other foreign universities of developed countries. Also we can make the new lectures available online paid, in different developed countries, till some funds for a particular lecture is raised, after that it can be made free.

Let me explain how it causes vast lost of information if we don't record especially scientific conferences. I am giving the example of University I was working. It was a scientific conference on Genome Architecture. In this international conference many renowned researchers have presented their work. The schedule was very hectic, with almost no time gap, as there were large number of speakers. As a student let me explain what are the problem that arises when we don't record the lectures. 1) First while listening we can miss many points, and we don't get the chance to listen again. 2) Also because of hectic schedule, it becomes bit boring for us, to listen all the lectures from 9:00 a.m. – 5:30p.m. So we may skip many lectures. 3) Further, but most important point is only students who registered for the Conference get the chance to listen. Imagine, what impact it would have, if it was made available online, may be after a month of conference, so that huge number of students

Its just a rough sketch about the Idea Update Aug 25th, 2015 Update: Features like plagiarism checker should be used in every schools and colleges so that projects can't be copied. Moreover projects should be computer typed not hand written. Personalized page for every subscriber. Questions creation section, questions must require critical thinking in order to solve Question analysis section: All the exam questions in schools and colleges must be uploaded in the website after examination and then analysis section would be there, where students and teachers all over the country could analyze it. Analysis can be based upon: 1) Whether the question pattern favors critical thinking or rote learning. 2) How difficult or easy is the question pattern? 3) Is there any mistakes in the questions? etc. Syllabus section: Syllabus section for each subject must be made for different universities or schools, where discussion about the syllabus is made. Following discussions can be made such as: W

Here is an Idea: There should be an Idea sharing forum, and below which we can discuss our thoughts about a particular idea given, such as it is practical or not and what will be its effects on us, if implemented. There can be option for upvotes and downvotes. And repetition of Idea should not be allowed.  Similarly, we can make a another subdomain for problem section i.e. people will share there problem faced which can be solved by government. People or experts can give suggestion or necessary steps to be taken by him. Similar type of framework is qoura/ stackoverflow. Please try to make a framework like that.  Also there are many open source frameworks like askbot which I like. It has also read only api, if we want to launch it on a native android app /or we can launch the website inside the app completely like the present Mygov app does. http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2267/stack-exchange-clones
