In this context, student organizations are introduced as groups of students managed as autonomous extracurricular spaces in which they enrich their training process upon practical issues that promote peer learning, while encouraging lifelong learning (LL). Thus, this research explores undergraduate engineering students' perceptions about the influence of student organizations on the promotion of undergraduate research culture through a survey. Results have indicated that 91% of the surveyed students think that research is encouraged within these spaces, and 79% perceive that these organizations have provided them with the necessary support to start a research project. Finally, 87% have begun to consider research as an important factor for their professional development, in accordance with LL. Therefore, it was concluded that the promotion of undergraduate research culture within these organizations strengthens students' intention to develop their final degree project as a research paper.

This method will act advantageously especially in research organizations where appraisals and giving research grants are usually done based on scholar's previous work in a specific domain. We were able to formulate results for 62 different authors from 8 different domains, these domains and authors were picked randomly so as to efficiently understand the working of the methodology we followed four essential steps in this approach namely gathering dataset, applying Glicko- 2 ranking algorithm, finding average rating value for all works finally calculating d-impact score using GPA method on the scale of 9. We can conclude that the result is a both domain-specific and more accurate representation of the author's impact. In work we gave introduction regarding methodology and description of existing technologies in section 1, In section-2 we described the need of the proposed methodology with few sample results in existing methodology and proposed one, In section-4 we described the methodology in step by step manner and also presented proposed algorithm with all the required formulae, In section-5 we presented analysis and actual summary of the results, In section-6 we presented the conclusion.

Many universities now offer globally recognized distance learning courses to cater to a wider audience. However, this transition comes with its set of challenges, particularly for professors and staff members who find themselves burdened with a substantial amount of manual work during the examination season. The tasks include setting up unique question papers for every exam, including different types of questions with varying difficulty, and eventually evaluating the answers given by the students, which is not only timeconsuming but also a labour-intensive process. To address this issue, the paper proposes a solution that aims to reduce the workload of teaching staff by enhancing the efficiency of the examination process. It does so by leveraging several natural language processing techniques for generating two types of questions- objective and subjective, and grading the solutions of the examinee. Additionally, subjective questions are further classified based on Bloom's taxonomy levels, providing a diverse range of questions that align with varying cognitive abilities. The automation of this process not only eases the burden on educators but also ensures a more streamlined and effective examination process, thus contributing to the broader goal of digitizing education.

A systematic processing of the examination results and their meaningful representation requires enormous labor when attempted manually. The students are generally unaware of the computational metrics of semester grade point average (SGPA) and cumulative grade point average (CGPA) though they like to get updated on their performance periodically. In this study, a straightforward computer code is developed in C++ language to enable the students to calculate their academic progress (in terms of SGPA and CGPA) using the input data of marks and credits of individual subjects. The code is designed with simplicity and practicality in mind, to enable the students, parents, teachers and administrators with a versatile tool for comprehensively assessing the academic outcomes. The validity of the software program is verified by comparing the computational performance for three Indian universities, namely, Anna University, N.

The results suggest that the code provides an accurate and time-saving solution compared to manual calculation. The results demonstrate the code's ability to verify the grades by the students as well as their mentors to keep track of the performance. This user- friendly tool will be highly beneficial for streamlining the result analysis process, providing valuable insights for the academicians towards decision- making and strategic planning.

In recent times, educational institutions have shifted their focus towards making use of different ICT tools in their teaching and learning processes. Under these circumstances, academicians are moving from the implementation of traditional lesson plans to microlesson plans. The effectiveness of micro lessons mainly relies on developing pre-class, in-class, and post-class activities in conjunction with relevant ICT tools. Even after selecting appropriate ICT tools for micro-lesson plan activities, it still becomes a challenging task to match existing ICT tools with students' cognitive levels. The novelty of this article lies in explaining the different ways of mapping class activities with Bloom taxonomy levels and ICT tools. The proposed mapping is applicable to present and future academic teaching and learning needs. This article also acts as a guide for academicians' effective teaching and learning in any discipline. In addition, our article mentions the prerequisites for mapping and implementing the aforesaid traits.
