The global auto industry is responsible for 15.9% of carbon emission (OICA) and among that, vehicle users are responsible for around 80% of carbon emission (JAMA). Awareness about environmental problems caused by this emission is rapidly increasing among people and governments are organizing various campaigns to make people familiar with the eco-driving concept. Vehicle users do not realize that their driving style has a direct influence on fuel consumption and this, in turn, leads to unwanted carbon emission. Therefore, there is a need to understand the car users' eco-driving behavior and explores the awareness level of passenger car users. Data has been collected from 400 respondents through the help of a structured questionnaire with a focus on eco-driving behavior practices. Analysis of this data showed that the pressure given to accelerate the engine is transformed into tailpipe emission. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of inculcating eco-driving behavior among car users in particular and vehicle users in general.

Human Resources Professionals in many companies have shifted to become data-driven organizations where every decision at operational, functional and top levels of an organizational hierarchy rely on data to make decisions. The decision-making style based on mere intuition has vanished due to the emergence of data which directed the organizations to achieve their objectives efficiently.

BACKGROUND: Medical students during their first year of MBBS course, find Biochemistry difficult and volatile. In this regard, we studied the feedback from students about the effectiveness of prevailing teaching aids and methods, so that best teaching aid and method can be adopted to improve their academic performance. METHODS: This study comprises of total 117 students of 1st MBBS course, who have completed the 2nd semester of academic year 2011-12. Irrespective of the teacher and topic, the students were asked to grade the teaching aids and methods that were used to teach Biochemistry for the period of 10 months (from August 2011 to May 2012). RESULTS: In our study high Satisfaction Index (SI) was noticed for combination method of teaching aid (blackboard+ PowerPoint*(PPT)) and teaching preceded and followed by asking questions + assessment + tutorials, teaching method. CONCLUSION: This observation may probably be due to the fact that, inherent deficiency of each teaching aid is compensated by the other. With regard to teaching method, the combination of teaching methods is more effective when compared to didactic lectures.
