The reality of learning a language is that students are diverse in terms of capability to grasp the language lessons given. Cognitive development, socio-cultural background, gender, motivation are a few factors that affect their ability to learn a target language. Thus, this paper is concerned about the effectiveness of Differentiated Instructions (DI) in catering low proficiency students so that they could excel in their ESL writing tasks and their perceptions of DI in improving their writing skills. A study was conducted in a sub urban primary school in Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. There were 29 respondents altogether from a class of Standard 4 which are categorized as low proficiency students based on their LINUS results in the previous year. The data were collected using mixed methods and, an analysis and discussion about the effectiveness of DI were done by comparing students’ pre-test and post-test scores and their perceptions towards DI were concluded from the interview and observations throughout the study. A questionnaire adapted from VARK questionnaire version 7.0 was used to determine students’ learning preferences before they were divided into three groups to undergone the DI strategies. The results of the study show there are some improvements in students’ writing as shown in the post-test results. Their behaviours in writing classes also have changed from being anxious to being confident at the end of the study. In general, it seems that DI could be used as one of the approach to help primary schools’ students to excel their ESL writing lessons. Besides, teachers should also take into consideration of implementing DI not only for writing skills but also other language skills.

The study was conducted at Faculty of science, Federal University Dutse, Dutse LGA. Jigawa State Nigeria. Using random sampling, a total of 500 Students of Federal University Dutse, faculty of Science were assessed. These were categorized into male and female. A cross-sectional descriptive study of 500 adolescents attending Federal University Dutse, Faculty of Science, in Northwestern Nigeria was carried out to examine the association of HGS with the BMI. It was observed that the hand grip strength in both males and females are significant as the value of p is <0.05. The estimation of right handgrip strength with age, and it has shown that it have no significance because p=0.058. The estimation of left handgrip strength with age, and it has shown that it has significance because the value of p=0.0174. The right handgrip strength was higher in males than females. The handgrip strength was not always higher with respect to age. Having higher BMI does not determine higher grip strength and vice versa.

Stress is primarily a physical reaction and is defined as a state characterized by symptoms of physical and mental tension or strain, such as depression or hypertension.

Students in secondary and tertiary education settings face a wide range of ongoing normative stressors, which can be defined as normal day to day hassles such as ongoing academic demands. This study investigates the relationship between academic stress and mental health among senior secondary students in Uttarakhand State. During the present study, simple random sampling technique has been applied to draw the sample from population. The sample consisted of 200 students (100 boys & 100 girls) of Haridwar district of Uttarakhand state. 100 students were taken from the government school and 100 from non-government school. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing standardized questionnaires to collect data from a sample of senior secondary students. The findings indicate a significant correlation between academic stress and various mental health indicators, suggesting a need for interventions to mitigate the adverse effects of academic pressure on students\' well-being.

This article is prepared to provide a single platform for the distribution of high-quality resources to postgraduate students. This content is currently taught at the postgraduate level, and several students from various Indian universities have selected to pursue it. By attaining these goals, the study hopes to give significant insights and recommendations that will assist the Nrupathunga University (Government Science College) Library in improving its collection, services, and user experience. Ultimately, this will help to improve students\' and faculty\'s learning and research outcomes, promoting an academic excellence culture at the college. The data analysis of the questionnaire distribution and responses obtained showed that 66.7% (200) of the 300 questionnaires given were completed and returned, with the remaining 33.3% (100) not received. This results in a response rate of 66.6% and a non-response rate of 33.3%. For postgraduate students in India, e-PG Pathshala serves as an important and effective doorway to academic literature. It also provides its students with high-quality study resources. According to the study\'s findings, e-PG Pathshala assists students with a wide range of duties, including class assignments, competitive tests, exam notes, and more. The e-PG Pathshala module should replicate and incorporate the features of numerous major databases.
