(ASST.PROF.SASHA S. PEREIRA, 2026) REZIMA NIVLOTA SOARES; SABIYA K; HEENA KAUSAR HALGI; PRACHI PRASHANT RAUT; SANJANA RAVI KITURKAR
In this project, we explore the topic, “The Stylistics of Insta Narratives: Decoding Instagram’s Visual Language and Slang.” Our focus is on the specific style in which visual stories are narrated on Instagram, alongside the visual elements and language used within the platform. These elements have a profound influence on people worldwide, affecting not only their cultures, beliefs, and knowledge but also their language and everyday ways of speaking. To conduct this research, we selected thirty diverse Instagram accounts to study the stylistics of digital narratives and visual elements. Our analysis covers Instagram’s history, features, and stylistic aspects - including its Reels, and Story Highlights. Furthermore, we examine the evolution of the English language from Old English to modern digital communication. This includes a deep dive into non-verbal language, graphology, hashtags, filters, slang, emojis, and memes. We also analyse the use of colour, influencer marketing terms, the pragmatic functions of slang, syntax and grammar. Our primary aim was to study how visual storytelling and the specific style of Instagram narratives work together to express ideas, messages, opinions, and emotions. Rather than relying on long sentences or dense paragraphs, these expressions are achieved through the strategic use of digital features and visual content. As there are still many users who may not fully understand the meanings of Instagram’s narrative terms, elements, or features, this project serves as a useful guide for anyone looking to navigate and understand this modern digital landscape.

The rapid growth of digital technology has transformed financial transactions in India, particularly through instant mobile payment systems such as UPI. This study examines the adoption of instant mobile payment systems among users and non-users in Salcete Taluka, Goa. The objective is to analyse awareness levels, usage patterns, demographic influences, and the key factors that encourage or discourage individuals from adopting digital payments. The study follows a descriptive and analytical research design. Primary data was collected through a structured online questionnaire from 363 respondents across different age groups, occupations, and educational backgrounds. Secondary data was gathered from journals, reports, and credible online sources. Statistical analysis was conducted using Jamovi and Microsoft Excel. The findings reveal a very high level of awareness, with a majority of respondents actively using mobile payment applications. Adoption is highest among the 18–35 age group, students, and employed individuals. Digital literacy and perceived safety strongly influence perceived usefulness and adoption. However, lack of digital skills, fear of fraud, and preference for cash continue to discourage some individuals, especially senior citizens and less digitally exposed groups. The study concludes that while instant mobile payment systems are widely accepted, improving digital literacy, strengthening security measures, and building user trust are essential for achieving broader and more inclusive adoption.
