Globalisation Aggravates Media Imperialism
Globalisation has reinforced media imperialism instead of putting an end to it. Researcher and educationist Farooq Sulehria argues that the western domination in media has increased manifold with the emergence of new TV channels and media houses, instead of ending it.

The Great, Big Dumbing Down: How Private Tuition Culture Has Set Education Back
Has tuition become a necessity? Does the rising competition mean your child cannot survive without it? Are highly institutionalized tutoring centers way better than schools? The answer to most of these queries has, sadly, turned to affirmative in recent years.

Learning With Video Games
Video games are a ubiquitous part of almost all children’s and adolescents’ lives, with 97% playing for at least one hour per day in the United States. The vast majority of research by psychologists on the effects of “gaming” has been on its negative impact: the potential harm related to violence, addiction, and depression. We recognize the value of that research; however, we argue that a more balanced perspective is needed, one that considers not only the possible negative effects but also the benefits of playing these games.

Pakistan has a significant role in South Asia due to its strategic location. It has its direct access to Indian Ocean through the Arabian Sea. But unfortunately Pakistan has not been able to use its maritime resources due to a sheer lack of awareness. Pakistan’s maritime sector has an important role to play in our national economic and military power. But that role cannot be put to use until we as nation take cognizance of the significance of this bountiful resource.
