CBSE exam 2020: While the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has been running the counselling sessions for students and their parents on dealing with exam stress, this year they have turned a bit more creative. They have shared hilarious memes on social media for students appearing for class 10, 12 board examinations. The memes, a brainchild of chairperson Anita Karwal, were first released on February 15, the day the board examinations began.


The board chairperson commented that the memes are meant to communicate with the students in their language. “Instead of instructions and guidelines regarding the board examinations, these memes will be helpful to students appearing for any exam as it will bring smiles,” the official said.

A meme featuring Albert Einstein says, “Gravitation cannot be held responsible for you not getting up on time for study and exams.”
Karwal also mentioned that this social media practice will be continued during non-examination days. “The board’s social media team will decide on the frequency of memes, but these messages will be posted on various board’s social media pages- Facebook, Twitter, Instagram even after the examination,” the official mentioned.

Psychologists Spot a Key Personality Trait That Could Be Shared by All Humble People

-
Psychologists have identified an important trait that could be shared by truly humble people - something called 'hypo-egoic nonentitlement'. That simply means that you don't believe your positive qualities and life achievements entitle you to any kind of special treatment from others That's slightly different to having a tendency to downplay your strengths and your achievements, which you might ordinarily associate with being humble, and it gives us a new insight into the essence of humility. The researchers – psychologists Chloe Banker and Mark Leary from Duke University in North Carolina – note that humility is of "particular interest" because of its links to "an array of desirable psychological and interpersonal outcomes". Just as excessive ego can lead to a variety of personal and social problems (take a look at the world around us).

An endless stream of essays—and rule-based feedback on grammar, spelling, and punctuation—can have a chilling effect on the motivation of everyone in the classroom. Couple all those rules with topics or assignments a student has no interest in, and you’re likely to get an uninspired, frustrated kid, and a teacher who doesn’t feel up to grading the work.

The Best Eighteenth-Century Poems Everyone Should Read   interestingliterature 50 years ago The eighteenth century was the great Age of Enlightenment, but also Romanticism. The Augustan or neoclassical poetry of Alexander Pope and others eventually gave way to the Romantic meditations of Wordsworth and Coleridge. Below, we introduce ten of the greatest and most emblematic poems of the eighteenth century. We’ve confined ourselves to poems written in the English language here, to make the task even vaguely achievable. Alexander Pope,  The Rape of the Lock .  The neoclassical return to the worlds of ancient Greece and Rome – coupled with a desire for rationalism and order – dominated the first half of the eighteenth century in English verse. And nobody better personified this neoclassical ideal than Alexander Pope (1688-1744), who made his name while still in his early twenties with this mock-heroic satire on the vanity of upper-class society in the early eighteenth century.
