Socio – Political Situation of India

Since good language promotes strong literacy, then it is only logical for language deficiencies to cause problems with literacy. This paper will discuss some key factors that influence literacy development. When properly obtained the skills can lead to successful literacy abilities. When not properly depicted, these same skills can cause a negative impact, or deficiencies in literacy development.

There are many of us who are disillusioned by the American Political system, over the years we have become increasingly cynical, viewing politicians as extensions of Corporate America, the good OLE boys from the South and the Eastern Elite. For such politicians, politics itself was a life long destiny, full of ambition, finesse, and struggle for power, yet a severe lack

In Margaret Adsett’s article on young voters in Canada, she discusses the growing problem of low youth involvement in politics. In the paper, she tries to explain why the number of young voters has gone down from 70 per cent to 40 per cent between 1970 and 2000.

The most important reason for the decline of literacy rates is improper education. Our country is being plagued by unacceptable academic planning. Frederick Douglass once wrote in his book The Narrative of the life of Frederick Douglass “It is easier to build strong children then to repair a broken man”. Why not build strong children to help their future. The lack of funds in education provide us with many challenges and obstacles we need to overcome.

Though youth voter numbers have fallen over the years, it is no indication that youths are becoming less politically agile. Youths are not voting but increasingly getting involved in non-voting political activities. They are boycotting products, attending demonstrations and signing petitions. This indicates that political thought and concern continues to flare within Canadians who do not queue up at polling booths on election days. General apathy towards political parties and leaders and growing perception that politics does not address their needs is keeping voters away. It is therefore for the government, politicians and parties to take steps to rectify the situation. They need to demonstrate greater understanding of youth issues and concerns to win their confidence.

Canada’s voter turn-out is decreasing every year with now only 60% of Canadians voting in the federal election. Most of the non-voters consist of youth, where the majority of the votes come from seniors. Political observers have argued that mainstream politicians ignore youth concerns because they know youth are less likely to vote then seniors. This statement is true and has a negative effect on Canadian youth and Canada as a whole. The negative effects lead to the consequences of the youth feeling unimportant, youth not putting the effort to get educated about politics, and to the lowering turn out of Canadians voters.

2015 was an exciting year for Canada. Andrew Wiggins was named the 2015 NBA Rookie of the Year, oil prices plunged and Alberta elected an NDP government, the country hosted the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and for the first time in Canadian history, a father and his son have both been elected as Prime Minister. My paper will touch on the results of the 2015 Federal Election and how it compared to the 2011 Federal Election. It will focus mainly on how the Liberal party was able to encourage more youth to get out and vote in this past election as well as how Canada can continue to support this trend. It will include information about why it is perceived that youth don’t care about politics, how we can increase youth voter turnout, and the implications

The effects of illiteracy has segregated those who understand things and know what is happening around the world and those who force themselves to shut down. Illiteracy in school defines as “unable to read and write.” But thinking simultaneously, illiterates in another country won’t mean the same, but rather for it to mean as “simple minded students who don’t do work on their own and use technologies to do their work.” From experience, the amount of homework given to students today is ridiculous. Students start to stress more and more because they either can’t finish their homework on time due to the amount of hours one subject is given, and or because of the extra-curricular activities being introduced and suggested to students in high school. Illiteracy relates to teachers handing out plenty of homework time because if students feel the way they do about receiving 5 hours of homework, they tend to fall and feel nothing in terms of choosing not to do any homework. And teachers do not understand that sometimes when students try explaining why students could not finish their homework, the explanation is not being accepted. Teachers, School staff also reiterate that students should have 8 hours of sleep but yet students spend 7 hours of school time taking notes, testing, and trying to memorize everything they have learned from the previous day. After 7 hours, the

“Young people are interested in politics, and do have faith in the democratic process. Nonetheless, the political system and the established parties and politicians that dominate it, are together failing to

For the purposes of this paper, young Canadians will be defined broadly as the cohort of Canadians aged 18 to 27. The paper will first briefly explain why a declining youth turnout is problematic to Canadian democracy. It will then refute two prevalent explanations to the decline of the Canadian youth voter turnout that emphasize the role of political cynicism and political parties. Last, it will provide three

The following essay looks into Appalachian population literacy crisis. The literacy crisis in Appalachian starts in home and schools, and the students were drop out school instead of graduation. Firstly, let us look at the literacy conflict between home and school. According to Baghban, the nature of conflict between home and school was that educators’ attitudes toward low test scores and parents did not see education as path of success. As reader can see, the conflict between home and school affects children success in school and literacy skills. Furthermore, the Appalachian population has gap between students’ home and academic lives, and Baghban propose a strategy that would bridge the gap between students’ home and academic lives. Overtime students could see the that print has meaning, and as results the students has higher chance to comprehend the text.

The importance of literacy is quite big than what you can imagine, without it how can one be self-efficient. Whether you’re a child, adolescent, or an elderly it’s an essential for life duties. Literacy is an everyday component without it will be difficult to do things one requires. One of the main issues is poverty, this is stopping education for young kids or adults. Poverty has stumped the growth of knowledge for the people that have to deal with those daily issues.

On the other hand, India has spent a majority of its history as a colony of England. It was not until 1947 that India became an independent nation state, after a grassroots nationalist movement started by Gandhi, and even then they were a one party congress. They are also an interesting case of democracy because of how many unfavorable aspects towards it they had, such as high inequality, many peasants, and many different languages and religions (Lecture). In 1956, India was broken up into states by the States Reorganization Act, that made state lines based on linguistic group. India’s founding leaders mirrored the ideas of America, in balancing states rights with a central government (Sil, 2014). They have also more recently gone through a liberalization of their economy. India is unique in the way that their social hierarchy is constructed because of the fact that they have a caste system. The caste system is a combination of religious practice and community organization that is a part of Hinduism (Sil, 2014). This system was officially demolished in the country, but in the country it is still very prevalent, and the focus on helping those who were in lower castes succeed has made people more aware of the way they institute social policies.

A person is officially considered to be literate if he is above ten years of age and can read and write. But this is not the case in Pakistani. In Pakistan a person is considered literate if he can write his name. Pakistan’s literacy rate is approximately 50%. Among males 67% are literate and 42 % of the females being literate. There is a Stark

The advantages of India’s social system are that the median age is 25, one of the youngest among large economies. The literacy rate is 61%, with a the amount time students spend in school equating to 10 years, which is the maximum time from primary to tertiary education (Central Intelligence Agency, 2011).
