It gives a newperspective to the exhibit materials for the purpose of accreditation.Introduction In most of the classroom education, the instructor delivers a brilliant lecture tohis/her satisfaction. However, an effective teacher would like to know how much of theknowledge has been absorbed or learned by the students from the lecture. While learningis proportional to instruction, the essential link between them is assessment. The processof instruction involves continuous decision making by an instructor. The instructordecides what to teach, how to teach, how much to teach, how long to teach, what toreview, what to ask in the test, and how to evaluate the test. These

It is the development of this praxis that has the aim of preventing depression ascaused by loneliness in our increasingly fractionated society.Authenticity in relationships and loneliness play a large factor in depression.
