The present study was carried out with an objective to study the effect of intervention on concept development among rural pre-school children. The sample for the study constitute
d 62 children in the age of 3-4 years who were attending Anganwadies in three adopted villages of Dharwad taluka. Information on concept was
collected with the help of Boehm Scale. School based intervention programme was conducted for
two months to improve children's knowledge about different concepts. The results indicated significant improvement in the concept development of children where in more number
of children were fell under medium category at pre-test and after intervention more number of children were fell under high category of concept development. An intervention programme enhanced the cognitive abilities and knowledge of different concepts among the rural pre-schoolers.

The study examined the causal factors related to academic backwardness in school going children. The sample comprised of 211 academically backward children studying in 7th, 8th and 9th standards (13-14 years) from four villages of Dharwad. The identification of academically backward children was made based on two criteria that is academic performance of the children in the previous year (those who secure ‘C’ grade and attending remedial classes) and opinion of their respective class teachers. Self structured tool was used to identify the reasons behind academic backwardness of children. The results revealed that the academic backwardness among children were related to academic, familial and health aspects. However 70 per cent of children had problems related to academic aspect that is difficulty in understanding few subjects, problems in writing and answering questions during exam. About 25 per cent had problems related familial aspects such as lack of education of parents, lack of co-operation and involvement in the studies by family members. Further health factors such as feeling tired, often headache, and difficulty in hearing were the major causal factors for academic backwardness in children. Hence, it is concluded that multiple factors were responsible for academic backwardness among rural school children which needs attention by the parents and teachers.Keywords

The study on “Resiliency among academically backward children” was undertaken with objectives to assess the level of resiliency and factors influencing resilience among academically backward children. The sample comprised 210 academically backward children studying in 7th, 8th and 9th standards of Government schools from four villages of Dharwad taluk. Results revealed that, majority of academically backward children belonged to medium level in all the components of both internal and external resilience. Further results revealed that, age, gender and SES factors had significant influence on both internal and external resilience of academically backward children.Keywords
