The term is also dynamic in nature and is used in both narrow and broader sense. The narrow sense defines education as a part of an individual's schooling system, while the broader one depicts the growth of human consciousness and emphasizes on the greater cause of human beings. Education is a lifelong process and is all pervasive. The great educators of the world have defined 'Education' in a different way. For some education is a way of life, for others it is defining our consciousness and making the world a better place. This paper will give an insight to how education is defined differently by different educators of the East and West, and at the same time how their perspective is contributing to a social cause.

The impact of the predictors on cluster formation is also examined. Each cluster has a different formation in relation to the predictors.

But acceptance of English from both these perspectives i.e. as a language and as a medium of instruction by students and teachers is growing interest among the researchers. However, Attitude of secondary school students of Cooch Behar district of West Bengal towards English is primal focus of this current study. 320 students from different secondary schools of the said district have been selected by simple random sampling technique to carry forward the research work. And this work highlights few interesting points related to students' attitude in this regard. This study may broaden the horizon towards understanding of English language in a different way and quantitative analysis of data could help in finding the actual state of students' attitude towards English as a language and also as a medium of instruction particularly in secondary schools of West Bengal.

Education hits the process of social change by changing the mindset of individuals. Proper education establishes social equalities; it provides equal opportunities to individuals irrespective of caste, class, creed and social backgrounds. It also enables students to get rid of social rigidity and teaches them to lead a healthy peaceful life. India is the galaxy of great individuals who have made great contributions in progressing the society and all of them highlighted the role of education to fulfil the dream of social advancement. A pivotal part of social development is women empowerment which not only broaden the scope of women education but also motivates women to protest against several social violences. Present study is an attempt to explore major thoughts of some eminent personalities regarding social and educational development through which the moto of national development can be achieved.

As a result of social change, ancient human society has transformed itself into an urban civilized human society. Urbanization is a form of social conversion from a traditional rural society to present urban communities. There is no doubt that people are now leaving rural life and gradually moving towards urban areas. Presently it is a big challenge for every individual. In general, urbanization refers to the shift of people from rural to urban areas, growing the promotion of people living in urban areas as compared to rural areas. The United Nations has suggested that by the end of 2008, half of the total population of the world will live in urban areas and it is predicted that by 2050, about 64 percent of developing nations and about 86 percent of the developed world will be urbanized. India is no exception. Most of the population in India presently live in rural areas and they also have to tend to move from rural to urban areas. If this large number of people leave the rural areas and move to urban areas without any proper planning, social problems will arise. The result of this is not always good. Thereafter this study aims to discuss the concept of urbanization and its impact on human life.

But one of the main goals of modern education is to help students in their overall development and make them possess ideal lives. If we cannot prevent or control the erosion of these values, the future of human civilization is headed toward darkness. Today in the modern era of globalization, the inclination of our youth toward Western lifestyle and culture is natural. Its impact on individual life is not always positive but also negative. So controlling these decadent values is a big challenge for present human society. Values education is the only means through which we can check this erosion of values. Various types of social media such as WhatsApp, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram Continue to play an important role in the dissemination of values education. Various types of audio, videos, texts, documents, etc. are uploaded on these social media which help to inculcate values in an individual. Therefore, it is very important to know how social media continues to play an important role in promoting value education. So, with help of this present study, the researcher tries to explain the significance of social media and also explain how it promotes value education in today's society.

From two decades ago until today, this topic has fought the attention of many concerned people worldwide, including government, research scholars, the business community worldwide, economists, and others who have been conducting on the complex issues that are written around globalization. Globalization is a term used to describe how trade and technology have made the world a more connected and interdependent place. Globalization means the integration of world economies through cross country free of information, ideas, technologies, goods, services, finance and last but not least people. According to WHO, Globalization can be defined as "the increased interconnectedness and interdependence of people and countries. It is generally understood to include two interrelated elements: the opening of international borders to increasingly fast flows of goods, services, finance, people and ideas; and changes in institutions and policies at national and international levels that facilitate or promote such flows". It is clear to all of us that today globalization has affected the entire world in the contemporary era. Similarly, globalization has had a significant impact on Indian society. At present, the impact of globalization can be seen in various aspects of Indian society. But in the case of a developing country like India, the impact of globalization may not always be good. Excessive inclination towards globalization can lead to various problems in Indian society. With help of this present study, the researcher has tried to discuss the meaning, characteristics, and causes of globalization and its positive as well as negative impacts on Indian society.

If it is not possible to establish peace, then this beautiful human civilization will destroy itself. Once upon a time "Lord Buddha" said in his philosophical thought that the main important cause of sadness and melancholy in human life is unconsciousness and wrong education. The lack of proper Education is the reason behind the misery in human life. So if we want to remove all the miseries of our life and establish peace in our life, then we have to go through the proper education. The teacher is the exponent who can establish peace in society through proper knowledge and proper education. A Teacher can work as an important agent of peace-building. Through this paper, the researcher is trying to show how the teacher will be able to establish peace in the minds of the students by removing the reasons for disturbance and unrest.

We know that inclusive education is such a kind of education system, which is an attempt to include all students under the same roof, irrespective of their race, religion, color, gender, and different kind of disability. One of the key objectives of inclusive education is to make every child healthy and strong physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually. Census 2011 has shown that over 21 million people in India as suffering from one or the other kind of disability. It is our responsibility to bring these disabled people back to the mainstream of society. It is never possible to bring that huge number of children back into the mainstream of society by teaching them differently from general children. What is particularly helpful in this regard is inclusive education. Inclusive education is the only education system through which it is possible to fully develop the inherent potential of all children. But the problem is that people associated with different levels of education like teachers, administrator have no clear idea about this inclusive education as a result various problems arise during its application. But to bring this huge number of disabled people back to the mainstream of society, inclusive education is a very important instrument. Through this research, the researcher tries to explain the problems of inclusive education and their remedies from India's perspective.
