Insight 2October - December, 2017

Social Media and the Students

Social media is the collective of online communication channels dedicated to community-based input, interaction, content-sharing and collaboration. Websites and applications dedicated to forums, micro blogging, social networking, social book-marking, social curtain, and wikis are among the different types of social media. Some prominent examples of social

media are Whatsapp, Instagram, Face book, Twitter, Google+, Wikipedia, LinkedIn, etc.

Effects of Social Media on Students

Social media is impacting students both positively and negatively. Positive practices of social media increase student's social intelligence and understanding of human behavior. Negative practices of social media make them materialistic, irate and addicted to too many undesirable habits.

However, the problem is not created by social networking websites the problems arises when we use them without analyzing what we are doing and what will be its impact on us, our family, society, and the country. In most academic institutions' cafeteria, dorm's or local hangout place, students can be found with their head down, thumbs swiping up and down or fingers tapping their phone screen checking the latest post on Whatsapp, Instagram, Snapchatting their friends or seeing what's trending on Twitter. This increased presence of social media has made a profound impact on college students, both positive and negative.

Positive effects

It Facilitate Online Learning

The use of social media has helped the students to learn through various online learning platforms available to them. The use of YouTube to watch educational videos has helped the students to gain wider knowledge.

Access to Information

There are many groups that students can join through online platforms, that are related to their course of study, demographic, school, environment and much more. Joining this group on Whatsapp, Twitter, Facebook and others will help the students to have access to quality information as and when needed.

It helps to Gain Wider Knowledge

Social media helps to enhance student academic performance and increase their knowledge through data and information gathering. When students are given an assignment in school, college they go through various online platforms to gather information and to find solutions to their assignment.

It helps to build Relationship

Students can get to know each other better through social media networks. It helps to bring together two or more people, where they can share their problem and can get it solved by fellow colleagues. If a student finds out that he or she is having a problem in a particular course, he or she can open up through chat and find a friend who can provide a solution.

Negative Effects:

It Wastes Time

Many students find it difficult to go about their normal life without making use of social media. It has been observed that student are not attentive in class, instead they are busy chatting and reading stories online. They waste their time chatting with friends and family; instead of reading and practicing at home what they have learned in school. Thus, students should not be carried away by social media platforms as it will affect their academic performance.

It causes social problems

Social media has created many social problems in the society. In these modern days, many students tend to choose online communication rather than having real time conversation, and this leads to a student becoming an introvert.

It Causes Health Problems

The use of computers, mobile phones, and various gadgets to access online platforms by students may harm the user if they use it for long hours frequently. Students may be exposed to bad posture, eye strain, physical and mental stress. Too much use of education technology tools for accessing social media by students is harmful and there must be a limit.

All educational stakeholders must ensure they coordinate the use of social media platforms by setting up a policy that can help to regulate the negative aspect of social media. Students must also be ready to learn and listen in the class room; they should not make chatting their priority. Students should pursue an excellent academic performance and gain adequate knowledge that will help them in the future.

Role of the parents

How can parents mitigate the negative aspects of social media while improving upon the positive results? Moderating their access to social media is one excellent method. Most of the negative aspects can be overcome by reducing the amount of time spent on social network sites. Provide ample time for face-to-face social interaction, like having family leisure time in which parent discuss their studies in a relaxed atmosphere or inviting friends and family over for cookouts. Paying attention to their academic progress and addressing any issues will go a long way towards keeping the negative aspects of social media from influencing their studies.

From Chairman's Desk… The Noble prize in Physics 1930Indian Nobel laureates Voluntary Blood Donation Camp

Dolphin Students Welfare Committee

(D.S.W.C.) & N.S.S. unit of the Institute

Affiliation at the time of the award.

Calcutta University, Calcutta, India.

Prize motivation: "for his work on the

scattering of light and for the discovery

of the effect named after him".

Field: Atomic physics, electroma-gnetism.

Work: When light meets particles that

are smaller than the light's wavelength,

the light spreads in different directions.

This occurs, for example, when light

packets - photons - encounter

molecules in a gas.

In 1928 Venkata Raman discovered

that a small portion of the scattered

light acquires other wavelengths than

that of the original light. This is because

some of the incoming photons' energy

can be transferred to a molecule,

giving it a higher level of energy.

Among other things, the phenomenon

is used to analyze different types of

material.

Editor's Column …The role of the College Bulletin!

The newspapers, magazines, newsletters provide wide ranging beneficial information to the society in general and to the youngsters in particular as invariably they remain the most valuable source of news and information despite the onslaught of the electronic media. They are a treasure-trove of information for students preparing for exams and competitions. Knowledge coupled with good expression sets the stage for success in any examination.

The students and young faculty in an academic institution need a medium through which they can showcase their talent and what could be better than to have their own institutional magazine, where everybody gets inspired to contribute an article, a poem, a write up on a recent scientific advancement or chronicling college's academic and extracurricular achievements to name a few. It also becomes a platform to highlight the achievements of faculty, students and to appreciate their hard work and achievements in the studies as well in different curriculums. Sometimes group photographs of the students and the teachers together in the field or institutional visits or receiving a prize from an eminent personality becomes a source of pleasant memories.

As the bulletin is published repeatedly four times a year there are many opportunities available to the students to prepare the contents for their articles. It would also motivate them to do research on topics of their choice, before making the copy to be published in the college bulletin. More time can be spent for rewriting the contents again and again for making it more attractive to the readers.

For each issue, the team of editors, faculty, staff, designers, photographers, in addition to generating creative contents from the student population, work extensively to report on events in and around the college. The final publication reflects and encompasses the diversity inherent to the academic and extra-curricular spaces in the institute.

We have been publishing the quarterly college bulletin “Dolphin Insight” since almost last 10 years. It provides insight of every activity of the college during that quarter. It may be termed as the progress report of those particular months. No doubt The Dolphin Insight is useful in many ways. It has a great educative value. As a copy of the Bulletin goes to parents and guardians it also provides a window to them to look into the activities of the institution where their wards are studying.

Hosting Road Safety Awareness WorkshopDolphin Students Welfare Committee

organised a workshop on 'Road safety

and driving Discipline' at the Institute

on December, 8, 2017. Large number

of students and faculty participated in

the workshop. Ms. Nivedita Kukreti,

IPS, SSP, Dehradun, and Shri

Dhirendra Gunjiyal, SP Traffic

Dehradun jointly conducted the

programme.

Ms. Kukreti in her address advised the

students to drive safely and keep away

from alcohol, drugs, etc., since rash

driving and intoxication were the

major causes of accidents in the

country. She said that it is a natural

tendency of students that they feel

proud in breaking rules, as we can see

students driving while talking on

mobile or start late from home for

college or anywhere and then are in

tearing hurry to reach their destination

resulting in major number of

accidents. She advised students to

follow the driving rules in day to day

life since road accidents results in

huge loss to the parents and society.

Shri Dhirendra Gunjiyal. SP, Traffic,

Dehradun presented the statistics of

Social Media and the Students

Social media is the collective of online communication channels dedicated to community-based input, interaction, content-sharing and collaboration. Websites and applications dedicated to forums, micro blogging, social networking, social book-marking, social curtain, and wikis are among the different types of social media. Some prominent examples of social

media are Whatsapp, Instagram, Face book, Twitter, Google+, Wikipedia, LinkedIn, etc.

Effects of Social Media on Students

Social media is impacting students both positively and negatively. Positive practices of social media increase student's social intelligence and understanding of human behavior. Negative practices of social media make them materialistic, irate and addicted to too many undesirable habits.

However, the problem is not created by social networking websites the problems arises when we use them without analyzing what we are doing and what will be its impact on us, our family, society, and the country. In most academic institutions' cafeteria, dorm's or local hangout place, students can be found with their head down, thumbs swiping up and down or fingers tapping their phone screen checking the latest post on Whatsapp, Instagram, Snapchatting their friends or seeing what's trending on Twitter. This increased presence of social media has made a profound impact on college students, both positive and negative.

Positive effects

It Facilitate Online Learning

The use of social media has helped the students to learn through various online learning platforms available to them. The use of YouTube to watch educational videos has helped the students to gain wider knowledge.

Access to Information

There are many groups that students can join through online platforms, that are related to their course of study, demographic, school, environment and much more. Joining this group on Whatsapp, Twitter, Facebook and others will help the students to have access to quality information as and when needed.

It helps to Gain Wider Knowledge

Social media helps to enhance student academic performance and increase their knowledge through data and information gathering. When students are given an assignment in school, college they go through various online platforms to gather information and to find solutions to their assignment.

It helps to build Relationship

Students can get to know each other better through social media networks. It helps to bring together two or more people, where they can share their problem and can get it solved by fellow colleagues. If a student finds out that he or she is having a problem in a particular course, he or she can open up through chat and find a friend who can provide a solution.

Negative Effects:

It Wastes Time

Many students find it difficult to go about their normal life without making use of social media. It has been observed that student are not attentive in class, instead they are busy chatting and reading stories online. They waste their time chatting with friends and family; instead of reading and practicing at home what they have learned in school. Thus, students should not be carried away by social media platforms as it will affect their academic performance.

It causes social problems

Social media has created many social problems in the society. In these modern days, many students tend to choose online communication rather than having real time conversation, and this leads to a student becoming an introvert.

It Causes Health Problems

The use of computers, mobile phones, and various gadgets to access online platforms by students may harm the user if they use it for long hours frequently. Students may be exposed to bad posture, eye strain, physical and mental stress. Too much use of education technology tools for accessing social media by students is harmful and there must be a limit.

All educational stakeholders must ensure they coordinate the use of social media platforms by setting up a policy that can help to regulate the negative aspect of social media. Students must also be ready to learn and listen in the class room; they should not make chatting their priority. Students should pursue an excellent academic performance and gain adequate knowledge that will help them in the future.

Role of the parents

How can parents mitigate the negative aspects of social media while improving upon the positive results? Moderating their access to social media is one excellent method. Most of the negative aspects can be overcome by reducing the amount of time spent on social network sites. Provide ample time for face-to-face social interaction, like having family leisure time in which parent discuss their studies in a relaxed atmosphere or inviting friends and family over for cookouts. Paying attention to their academic progress and addressing any issues will go a long way towards keeping the negative aspects of social media from influencing their studies.

From Chairman's Desk… The Noble prize in Physics 1930Indian Nobel laureates Voluntary Blood Donation Camp

Dolphin Students Welfare Committee

(D.S.W.C.) & N.S.S. unit of the Institute

organized a voluntary blood donation

camp in its premises on 27 November

2017 in collaboration with I. M. A.

Blood Bank, Dehradun.

The camp was inaugurated by Shri Arvind

Gupta, Chairman, Dolphin Institute by

donating blood. He appreciated the

arrangements made by D.S.W.C. and

also appealed the students to whole-

heartedly participate in the various

activities of D.S.W.C.

Dr. Piyush Goel of I. M. A. blood Bank

emphasized on the importance of the

Blood donation that since blood can't

be stored for long time, continuous

fresh blood donation is necessary. He

mentioned that human blood has no

alternatives, neither can it be

produced artificially nor the blood of

any an ima l can be

transfused to humans.

160 Units of blood were

donated by the students,

faculty and staff of the

Institute. On the occasion

Born: 7 November 1888, Tiruch-

irappalli, India

Died: 21 November 1970, Bangalore, India

Affiliation at the time of the award.

Calcutta University, Calcutta, India.

Prize motivation: "for his work on the

scattering of light and for the discovery

of the effect named after him".

Field: Atomic physics, electroma-gnetism.

Work: When light meets particles that

are smaller than the light's wavelength,

the light spreads in different directions.

This occurs, for example, when light

packets - photons - encounter

molecules in a gas.

In 1928 Venkata Raman discovered

that a small portion of the scattered

light acquires other wavelengths than

that of the original light. This is because

some of the incoming photons' energy

can be transferred to a molecule,

giving it a higher level of energy.

Among other things, the phenomenon

is used to analyze different types of

material.

Editor's Column …The role of the College Bulletin!

The newspapers, magazines, newsletters provide wide ranging beneficial information to the society in general and to the youngsters in particular as invariably they remain the most valuable source of news and information despite the onslaught of the electronic media. They are a treasure-trove of information for students preparing for exams and competitions. Knowledge coupled with good expression sets the stage for success in any examination.

The students and young faculty in an academic institution need a medium through which they can showcase their talent and what could be better than to have their own institutional magazine, where everybody gets inspired to contribute an article, a poem, a write up on a recent scientific advancement or chronicling college's academic and extracurricular achievements to name a few. It also becomes a platform to highlight the achievements of faculty, students and to appreciate their hard work and achievements in the studies as well in different curriculums. Sometimes group photographs of the students and the teachers together in the field or institutional visits or receiving a prize from an eminent personality becomes a source of pleasant memories.

As the bulletin is published repeatedly four times a year there are many opportunities available to the students to prepare the contents for their articles. It would also motivate them to do research on topics of their choice, before making the copy to be published in the college bulletin. More time can be spent for rewriting the contents again and again for making it more attractive to the readers.

For each issue, the team of editors, faculty, staff, designers, photographers, in addition to generating creative contents from the student population, work extensively to report on events in and around the college. The final publication reflects and encompasses the diversity inherent to the academic and extra-curricular spaces in the institute.

We have been publishing the quarterly college bulletin “Dolphin Insight” since almost last 10 years. It provides insight of every activity of the college during that quarter. It may be termed as the progress report of those particular months. No doubt The Dolphin Insight is useful in many ways. It has a great educative value. As a copy of the Bulletin goes to parents and guardians it also provides a window to them to look into the activities of the institution where their wards are studying.

Vector-borne diseases are one of the

greatest contributors to human

mortality and morbidity in tropical

settings and beyond. Although

significant progress is currently being

made in combating some diseases

such as Malaria, Lymphatic Filariasis

and Chagas disease, other diseases

such as Dengue continue to spread

and increase the number of cases at an

alarming pace. He also highlighted

that vector control programmes need

to adapt to match the changing

epidemiological patterns of new

emerging threats. This will require

increased research to develop a sustained

approach to ecological and environ-

mental changes in the years ahead.

Vector-borne diseases are one of the

greatest contributors to human

such as Malaria, Lymphatic Filariasis

and Chagas disease, other diseases

such as Dengue continue to spread

and increase the number of cases at an

alarming pace. He also highlighted

that vector control programmes need

to adapt to match the changing

epidemiological patterns of new

emerging threats. This will require

increased research to develop a sustained

approach to ecological and environ-

mental changes in the years ahead.

Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic acid, or ASA,

Brand- Disprin®), an ancient anti-

inflammatory agent, is a classic

wonder drug and most successful and

amazing medicine all over the world.

Throughout the world more than 200

billion of these little white pills are

used every year. It became a household

name first as a painkiller, but since then

it has been found to reduce the risk of

several life threatening diseases. Aspirin

is effective not only against everyday

ailments, such as headache and fever,

but also as preventative treatment for

heart attack, stroke, and even some

types of cancer.

Acetylsalicylic acid, the active

ingredient in aspirin, was first

successfully synthesized more than

100 years ago, in 1897, by German

chemist Felix Hoffmann, who was

trying to find out a better form of pain

killer than salicylic acid for his father, a

rheumatoid arthritis sufferer.

Hippocrates, the father of modern

medicine, used salicylic acid as active

ingredient - which he extracted from

the bark and leaves of the willow tree

(Salix alba), a natural source of salicylic

acid, to help alleviate pain and fevers

approximately two millenniums ago.

Some people still use willow bark as a

more natural remedy for headache,

minor aches and pains.

Aspirin first came in market in 1897.

Developed by the pharmaceutical

company Bayer from an extract of

willow bark, it was thought to be the

miracle cure which could treat all

ailments. Acetylsalicylic acid was

produced by modifying salicylic acid to

eliminate earlier side effects such as

nausea and acidity and thus aspirin

was born.

It was initially prescribed as a powder

for effectively treating rheumatism,

relieving headache, toothache, nerve

pain and reducing fever and

inflammation. Once compressed into

a water soluble tablet it became the

first major drug to be sold in tablet form.

Today, while many other pain killers

and anti-inflammatory drugs are

available, none can match aspirin's

versatility or safety. In addition to its

traditional uses, aspirin is now known

to reduce the tendency of blood to

clot, thus lowering the risks of heart

Nobel Prize For Medicine AwardedFor Insights Into Internal Biological Clock

SCIENTIFIC ADVANCEMENTS

American scientists Jeffrey C

Hall, Michael Rosbash and

Michael W Young were

awarded the 2017 Nobel

Prize in Physiology or

Medicine for "discoveries of

molecular mechanisms

con t r o l l i n g c i r c ad i an

rhythms". The circadian

rhythm or body's inner clock

he lp s r e gu l a t e s l e ep

patterns, feeding behaviour, hormone

release and blood pressure. The team

identified a gene within fruit flies that

controls the creatures' daily rhythm,

known as the “period” gene. This gene

encodes a protein within the cell

during the night which then degrades

during the day. (https://www.

Nobel Prize In Physics Awarded For Discovery of Gravitational Waves

American scientists Rainer

Weiss, Barry C Barish and

Kip S Thorne from the

LIGO/VIRGO collaboration,

which first detected the

gravitational waves, were

awarded the 2017 Nobel

Prize in Physics. Predicted

by Albert Einstein in 1916,

the ripples in space-time

created by colliding black

holes were first detected in 2015.

Gravitational waves are extremely

faint ripples in the fabric of space and

time, generated by some of the most

violent events in the universe. A

wealth of discoveries awaits those who

succeed in capturing the waves.

Nobel Prize In Chemistry Awarded For Method To Visualise Biomolecules

The Nobel Prize in chemistry

this year went to the three

pioneers of cryo-electron

microscopy, a technique that

takes accurate and detailed

pictures of living things at

atomic scales. Developed

over decades by laureates

Jacques Dubochet at the

University of Lausanne in

Switzerland, Joachim Frank

at Columbia University, and Richard

Henderson at the MRC Laboratory of

Molecular Biology in the United

Kingdom, cryo-electron microscopy is

a rare feat of science and engineering

that makes things both simpler and

better. Using it, scientists have made

high-resolution, 3D images to target

cancer drugs and demystify the Zika

v i r u s . ( h t t p s : / / w w w .

Nobel Prize-Winning Technique Sheds New Light On DNA Replication

Scientists using cryo-

electron microscopy,

suggested how the

double helix DNA

s e p a r a t e s d u r i n g

replication. It was

found that DNA follows

a zig-zag path inside a

channel created by two

6-sided rings where it

interacts with two rings

prior to being separated

into 'leading' and 'lagging' strands. The

team at Imperial College, London, was

able to image helicase enzymes, called

Mcm2-7, revealing its 3D structure,

illuminating how the enzymes latch on

to 60 base pairs or letters of the DNA.

The findings could lead to new insights

into the basis of cancer and genetic

disease. (http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/

The 'Arctic apple', modified to silence

the genes responsible for producing a

browning enzyme, has gone on sale in

the US for the first time. Typical apples

brown when an enzyme called

polyphenol oxidase is exposed to

oxygen. The genetically modified

apple is sold by a Canada-based

company Okanagan Specialty Fruits,

which planted its first test apples in

2003. (https://www.nature.com/

Switzerland-based researchers have

engineered non-immune cel ls

transforming them into synthetic cells

that mimic T-cells. Naturally occurring

T-cells are cells' immune systems

which detect infections and kill them

but are unable to kill cancer cells as

they do not recognise them as foreign

cells. The synthetic cells were however

engineered with the additional

function of killing cancer. At present

this new system is still a long way from

a therapeutic application, but it opens

up a new front in the battle against

Physicists Confirm The Existence of A New Form of Matter Called

"excitonium"

U S a n d N e t h e r l a n d s - b a s e d

researchers have proven the existence

of a new form of matter excitonium,

almost 50 years after it was theorised.

Excitonium is a condensate made of

excitons, particles formed in a

quantum mechanical pairing of an

escaped electron and the hole it left

behind. The hole behaves like a

positive charge and attracts negatively-

charged electrons to form excitons.

Marine Organisms CanShred A Plastic Bag

Into 1.75 Million PiecesA single plastic bag could be shredded

by marine organisms into around 1.75

million microscopic fragments,

according to a UK-based research

conducted in December, at the

University of Plymouth. Marine

scientists examined the rate at which

bags were broken down by the

amphipod Orchestia gammarellus,

found in European coastal areas. The

type of plastic (conventional,

degradable, and biodegradable) had

no effect on the rate of ingestion.
