Assessing students' progress in introductory programming courses is crucial for identifying learning gaps and improving teaching methods. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Moodle-based tests with randomized questions in monitoring student progress in C programming courses at J. Selye University during the 2023/24 academic year. A series of ten tests were administered across two courses, covering essential programming topics such as data types, variables, conditional statements, loops, two-and three-dimensional arrays, recursion, and sorting algorithms. The results revealed significant variations in student performance, with recursion and the pretest/posttest loops presenting the greatest challenges. The correlation analysis of test scores showed strong relationships among related topics, confirming the structured progression of the curriculum. These findings suggest that Moodle-based assessments offer valuable insights into students' learning trajectories, enabling educators to adapt their instructional strategies accordingly. Such insights can help optimize introductory programming curricula, enhancing student engagement and understanding.
This paper investigates the transformative potential of Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) in modern business and management practices, aligning with India's vision for "Viksit Bharat 2047"—a roadmap toward becoming a developed nation by 2047. Integrating ancient Indian wisdom with advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) provides an innovative framework for enhancing decision-making, sustainability, and innovation across diverse industries. This study aims to incorporate key IKS principles such as holistic management, ethical leadership, and community-centered business models into AI-driven methodologies to create a forward-thinking approach in Indian business contexts. Using a mixed-method research design, the study combines qualitative insights from traditional Indian texts with quantitative analysis of case studies where IKS principles are applied in contemporary businesses. The findings reveal that concepts like ―Dharma‖ (ethical responsibility), ―Artha‖ (resource management), and ―Karma‖ (action-driven leadership) play a crucial role in corporate governance, social responsibility, and achieving sustainable development goals when combined with AI's analytical power. This synergy addresses current challenges, including environmental sustainability, social equity, and ethical governance. The research demonstrates that a balanced integration of AI and IKS can foster inclusive and sustainable growth, supporting India's self-reliance and competitiveness on a global scale. The paper provides a roadmap for academics, policymakers, and business leaders to leverage IKS with AI, aiming for an innovative and resilient India by 2047.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is redefining the future of business by transforming traditional processes, driving innovation, and fostering sustainable growth. This research paper explores the strategic integration of AI in Indian business ecosystems, aiming to identify its role in achieving the vision of Viksit Bharat@2047. The study emphasizes how AI can accelerate economic growth, enhance productivity, and address pressing challenges across sectors such as manufacturing, services, startups, and agri-business management. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combines qualitative insights from industry experts and quantitative data analysis to assess the readiness and impact of AI adoption in businesses. Key findings indicate that while AI technologies have immense potential to streamline operations, optimize supply chains, and drive decision-making, several challenges persist, including skill gaps, ethical concerns, and infrastructural limitations. The study underscores the importance of leveraging AI for sustainable development, employment generation, and global competitiveness. Policy recommendations focus on fostering an innovation ecosystem, strengthening governance, and investing in upskilling initiatives to ensure inclusive growth. By aligning AI strategies with Indian Knowledge Systems, this research provides actionable insights for businesses, policymakers, and stakeholders committed to shaping a technologically empowered India by 2047.
