The benefits in reducing demand for imported crude oil can be huge, apart from reducing carbon emissions and other air pollutants. It would make perfect sense to boost supply of EVs, especially two-wheelers, e-rickshaws, tempos and small cars, so as to complement and supplement public transport going forward. Estimates suggest that by meeting a rising part of the incremental demand for mobility, EVs can lead to macroeconomic benefits, and sooner rather than later.
Assuming only about half a litre of petrol consumption per two-wheeler daily, or about litres annually, the volumes would add up to over 30 billion litres. And the bill for which, at current prices, would amount to well over Rs 2 lakh crore.
In tandem, we need power reforms to rev up utility realisations and strengthen the grid. India also has an opportunity in supplying on-board electric batteries. Swapping services to provide charged batteries on lease would step-up diffusion of EVs. A power-electronics industry ecosystem would raise production and provide high-efficiency subsystems for EVs. India must not miss the bus on EVs.
Which of the following words is the most opposite in meaning to the word given in bold? A power-electronics industry ecosystem has raised production. Refer to: In tandem, we need power reforms to rev up utility realisations and strengthen the grid.
Statement I: Power reforms have been made to strengthen the grid. Hence statement I is incorrect. This indicates that it has not yet started supplying. Hence statement II is incorrect. Directions : Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. A couple of weeks ago I was asked what I thought the future of technology in education was. It is a really interesting question and one that I am required to think about all the time. By its very nature, technology changes a fast pace and making it accessible to pupils, teachers and other stakeholders is an ongoing challenge.
For me, the future is not about one specific device. In fact, I have just finished a trial to see if using them really does support teaching and learning — and they have proved effective.
Perhaps it will be wearable devices such an Google Glass, although I suspect that tablets will still be used in education. The future is about access, anywhere learning and collaboration, both locally and globally. Teaching and learning is going to be social. Schools of the future could have a traditional cohort of students, as well as online only students who live across the country or even the world.
Things are already starting to move this way with the emergence of massive open online courses moocs. For me, the future of technology in education is the cloud. Technology can often be a barrier to teaching and learning. I think the cloud will go a long way to removing this barrier. By removing the number of things that can go wrong. Schools, will only need one major thing to be prepared for the future. They will not need software installed, servers or local file storage. Schools will need a fast robust internet connection.
Infrastructure is paramount to the future of technology in education. What we do know, is that it will need the cloud. Schools and other educational institutions will need to future proof their infrastructure the best they can. This should be happening now. If you want to start to use mobile technology in your school, water it is an iPad program or a bring your own device BYOD program your connectivity must be fast and reliable, Student and teacher buy in, is so important.
If the network is slow and things are not working properly students and teachers will not want to use the devices. Make sure the infrastructure is there before the devices. Teachers can use the cloud to set, Collect and grade work online. Students will have instant access to grades, comments and work via a computer, smartphone or tablet. Many schools are already doing this. Plus, services such as the educational social network Edmodo offer this for free. This is where devices come in.
All devices no matter which ones we will use in the future will need to access the cloud. Each student will have their own. Either a device specified by the school or one they have chosen to bring in themselves. School classrooms are going to change. Thanks to the cloud and mobile devices, technology will be integrated into every part of school. Games fields, gyms and school trips will all change.
