Rimjhim class 3 - NCERT - 23: रिमझिम ३री कक्षा - एनसीईआरटी - २३
by Rashtriy Shaikshik Anusandhan Aur Prashikshan Parishadराष्ट्रीय पाठ्यचर्या की रूपरेखा (2005) सुझाती है कि बच्चों के स्कूली जीवन को बाहर के जीवन से जोड़ा जाना चाहिए। यह सिद्धांत किताबी ज्ञान की उस विरासत के विपरीत है जिसके प्रभाववश हमारी व्यवस्था आज तक स्कूल और घर के बीच अंतराल बनाए हुए है। नई राष्ट्रीय पाठ्यचर्या पर आधारित पाठ्यक्रम और पाठ्यपुस्तकें इस बुनियादी विचार पर अमल करने का प्रयास है। बच्चों के हाथ में जैसे ही कोई नई किताब आती है, वे झट से उसे उलटना-पलटना शुरू कर देते हैं। उनमें एक स्वाभाविक उतावलापन होता है- चित्र निहारने का, कविता और कहानियों के बारे में जानने का या स्वयं उन्हें पढ़ डालने का। इस पाठ्यपुस्तक ने उनकी इस स्वाभाविक प्रवृत्ति का भरपूर फ़ायदा उठाने की कोशिश की है। किताब के लिए ऐसी कविताओं और कहानियों को चुना गया है, जिनमें बच्चों की बातचीत, उनकी आदतें, उनके नखरे, जिद, उनके सवाल साफ़-साफ़ झलकते हैं। इसलिए बच्चे ऐसी कविताओं या कहानियों से विचार और भावनाओं के स्तर पर एक जुड़ाव महसूस करेंगे।
Rimjhim class 4 - NCERT - 23: रिमझिम ४थीं कक्षा - एनसीईआरटी - २३
by Rashtriy Shaikshik Anusandhan Aur Prashikshan Parishadराष्ट्रीय पाठ्यचर्या की रूपरेखा-2005 सभी मूल्यों की जड़ में सामाजिक सद्भाव एवं शांति को चिह्नित करती है और इस उद्देश्य के लिए प्रत्येक विषय को महत्त्व देती है। शांतिपरक मूल्यों के विकास में भाषा की भूमिका सर्वाधिक महत्त्वपूर्ण है। भाषा किसी भी संस्कृति में मूल्यों को बनाए रखने का काम करती है। दूसरों के प्रति खासकर असमानता, क्षमता या पृष्ठभूमि के अंतर के संदर्भ में बच्चों को संवेदनशील बनाना भी भाषा-शिक्षण के दौरान होना चाहिए। इसी बात को ध्यान में रखते हुए पुस्तक में सुनीता की पहिया कुर्सी पाठ दिया गया है। इसी तरह की अन्य सामग्री पत्र-पत्रिकाओं से या स्वयं विकसित करके शिक्षक उनका उपयोग कर सकते हैं। शिक्षक को चाहिए कि मूल्यों के विकास में भाषा की भूमिका सुनिश्चित करते हुए कक्षा में अपने और बच्चों के व्यवहार में उसकी परिणति लाए। रिमझिम 4 में भी कई पाठ सिर्फ़ पढ़ने के लिए दिए गए हैं उनके साथ कोई प्रश्न नहीं है। इन पाठों को देने का उद्देश्य बच्चों को पढ़ने की अतिरिक्त सामग्री उपलब्ध कराना है जिसे वे प्रश्नों के बोझ से मुक्त होकर आनंद लेते हुए पढ़ सकें। बच्चों को पढ़ने के जितने अधिक अवसर मिलेंगे, उतना ही अधिक उनकी पढ़ने की गति एवं शब्द-भंडार बढ़ेगा तथा वर्तनी संबंधी त्रुटियों में कमी आएगी।
Rimjhim class 5 - NCERT - 23: रिमझिम ५वीं कक्षा - एनसीईआरटी - २३
by Rashtriy Shaikshik Anusandhan Aur Prashikshan Parishadइस रिमझिम पुस्तक में ताने-बाने को चार सूत्रों में पिरोया गया है। हर सूत्र का अपना रंग और अपनी छटा है। अपनी-अपनी रंगतें के अंतर्गत रीति-रिवाज़, जीवन शैली, हुनर, विरासत और बोली आदि संस्कृति के विभिन्न आयामों की झलक है। इस भाग को पढ़ाते समय यह ध्यान में रखना ज़रूरी होगा कि सांस्कृतिक विविधता के बारे में शिक्षक का स्वयं का ज्ञान ही इन पाठों को बच्चे के लिए जीवंत बना सकता है। इस भाग के माध्यम से रिमझिम-5 हमारी अनमोल विरासत को सहेजने का प्रयास है। अभिव्यक्ति के कई माध्यम हैं। समय के साथ-साथ इन माध्यमों में भी बदलाव आया है। अपनी बात लोगों तक पहुँचाने का तरीका समय के साथ कैसे बदलता रहा है- पुस्तक के दूसरे भाग बात का सफ़र में इसी रोचक सफ़र की झलक है। रिमझिम-5 में कई साहित्यकारों की रचनाएँ ली गई हैं। जैसे- प्रेमचंद, सुभद्रा कुमारी चौहान, नागार्जुन, सोहनलाल द्विवेदी, आर. के. नारायण आदि। आने वाली कक्षाओं में साहित्य से बच्चों का परिचय उत्तरोत्तर बढ़ता जाएगा। रचनाओं को गहराई से समझने के लिए उनके लेखकों का परिचय उपयोगी है।

Risk Management for Enterprises and Individuals
by Etti Baranoff Patrick Lee Brockett Yehuda KahaneThis book is intended for the Risk Management and Insurance course where Risk Management is emphasized. When we think of large risks, we often think in terms of natural hazards such as hurricanes, earthquakes or tornados. Perhaps man-made disasters come to mind such as the terrorist attacks in the U.S. on September 11, 2001. Typically we have overlooked financial crises, such as the credit crisis of 2008. However, these types of man-made disasters have the potential to devastate the global marketplace. Losses in multiple trillions of dollars and in much human suffering and insecurity are already being totaled, and the global financial markets are collapsing as never before seen. We can attribute the 2008 collapse to financially risky behavior of a magnitude never before experienced. The 2008 U.S. credit markets were a financial house of cards. A basic lack of risk management (and regulators' inattention or inability to control these overt failures) lay at the heart of the global credit crisis. This crisis started with lack of improperly underwritten mortgages and excessive debt. Companies depend on loans and lines of credit to conduct their routine business. If such credit lines dry up, production slows down and brings the global economy to the brink of deep recession or even depression. The snowballing effect of this failure to manage the risk associated with providing mortgage loans to unqualified home buyers have been profound, indeed. When the mortgages failed because of greater risk- taking on the Street, the entire house of cards collapsed. Probably no other risk-related event has had, and will continue to have, as profound an impact world wide as this risk management failure. How was risk in this situation so badly managed? What could firms and individuals have done to protect themselves? How can government measure such risks (beforehand) to regulate and control them? These and other questions come to mind when we contemplate the consequences of this risk management fiasco. Standard risk management practice would have identified sub-prime mortgages and their bundling into mortgage-backed-securities as high risk. People would have avoided these investments or would have put enough money into reserve to be able to withstand defaults. This did not happen. Accordingly, this book may represent one of the most critical topics of study that the student of the 21st century could ever undertake. Risk management will be a major focal point of business and societal decision making in the 21st century. A separate focused field of study, it draws on core knowledge bases from law, engineering, finance, economics, medicine, psychology, accounting, mathematics, statistics and other fields to create a holistic decision-making framework that is sustainable and value- enhancing. This is the subject of this book.
