To assists the learners to understand their educational systems better.
To find out the strengths and weakness of the current education system.
To assist in the development of educational institutions and practices.
To highlight the relationships between education and society.
To study the factors that influence education system for the purpose of finding out solutions of educational problems
Another purpose is To understand why the educational systems of some countries are progressive and of others, backward
There are mainly three parallel education systems running in Pakistan

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. “It’s time for parents to
teach young people early on
that in DIVERSITY there is
beauty and there is strength.”
3. It is the condition of having or being
composed of differing elements:
variety; especially; the inclusion of
different types of people (as people
of different races or cultures) in a
group or organization.
It is the state
of having people
who are different
races or who have
different cultures
in a group or
organization.
What is
DIVERSITY?
It is the quality
or state of having many
different forms, types,
ideas, etc.
4. DIVERSITY is a multidimensional, broadly inclusive
concept that acknowledges and embraces the richness of
human differences.
7. Diversity is a topic that comes up time and
time again when discussing the state of education
and the ever-increasing diversity in our schools and
communities. But are the demographics of our
nation really so different from what they were 20
years ago — or are we just becoming more aware of
other cultures as technology brings the global
community into our homes?
“We are moving toward a society in which
individuality is retained and valued and a
cultural mosaic is created from millions of
unique pieces.”
8. In recent years there has been much research on diversity and its
impact on students. Our campuses/schools are laboratories for diversity
issues and they continue to evolve over time. Some of the impacts of
Diversity on Education are the following:
• Diversity contributes into institutional characteristics such as high
expectations, belief in students’ capacities, models of success, institutional
mission, link between the value of education and service to larger
communities.
• Campus climate has been an important theme. Conversations about
campus/school climate engage numerous issues related to gender, race,
ethnicity, class, sexual orientation, physical ability, and religion.
• Efforts to enhance access and equity on schools through diversity initiatives
have numerous implications for campus/school climate. Indeed, a perception
among students that the institution is committed to diversity increases
positive perceptions of the climate of the campus.
• Studies on cognitive development show that critical thinking, problem-
solving capacities, and cognitive complexity increase for all students
exposed to diversity on the campus/school and in the classroom.
14. What are my
responsibilities in
terms of
addressing my
students' needs?
How do I cope
with the broad
range of
differences
between my
students?
What support is
out there for me?
What do we mean
by diversity?
15. Studies and researches are some of the major approaches that are being
done in order to address diversity in Education. Through these procedures,
problems relating to diversity are being addressed, remedied and are provided
with a wide range of solutions that would dynamically and flexibly handle such
diverse situations.
Today’s general education, classrooms are becoming more and more
diverse with both students with disabilities and students from diverse cultural
and linguistic backgrounds. In order for teachers to effectively teach a classroom
of diverse students, meeting each student’s needs individually and successfully,
effective research based strategies must be implemented. Some of the strategies
are as follows:
1. Acknowledging students’ differences
2. Connecting with students’ families
3. Establishing school-wide “cultural” collaboration.
4. Implementing culturally responsive teaching.
5. Establishing mentors for students.
16. These strategies, when implemented in the classroom and at the school
level, can positively affect each student both academically and
behaviorally in the inclusive diverse classroom.
17. The Role of Education
in Addressing Issues
of
Diversity
18. As young children start to recognize human differences, teachers can help
them develop a foundation of respect and inclusion. What are the best practices to
implement in an intercultural approach? What is the role of Education to mold
these children on how to react on these differences?
19. Diversity literally means 'difference' and in the educational context diversity
relates to the differences between Faculty and other staff, between students, and
between teachers and students. The reasons for differences are numerous and may
include personality, culture, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age and so on.
The 'diversity agenda' in education sets out to address issues that lead to
inequalities in practice. It has its roots in the legal framework that underpins the
provision of equal opportunities and which acknowledges that our social identity
impacts on life experiences and opportunities. Equality aims to create a fairer
society, where all can participate and have the opportunity to fulfill their potential.
Part of this involves identifying patterns of experience based on group identity, and
challenging processes which limit individuals' potential life chances. The diversity
agenda also relates to a wider aspiration to widen participation in education as a
whole, reflecting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The broad 'diversity agenda' includes consideration of issues relating to
gender, race/ethnicity, culture, age, domestic circumstances, prior educational
achievement/attainment, sexuality and sensory, psychological or physical
disability/impairment.
20. Teachers need to be aware of the diversity issues that relate to quality
teaching practice, benefits for community, law, equal opportunities, human
rights, and education. In order to address diversity principles and approaches,
teachers also need to know how to design, deliver and evaluate learning
opportunities to help meet the needs of a diverse student body.
One of the ways in which teachers can determine the learning needs of
diverse student groups is by thinking about how different students learn. Here,
we do not just mean how student learn in terms of individual learning styles. We
are referring to students' learning patterns and preferences relate to their earlier
and current educational and cultural backgrounds.
For example:
Different cultures have different perceptions/understandings of the role of
teachers and other students with expectations differing accordingly.
Students who hold very strong views about race, politics, religion or sexuality
may find it difficult to cope with an objective, open discussion or with students
who hold opposing views. This may cause potential conflict in the classroom.

forget about the lessons.
The Noob Teacher
These teachers are still new to the game and are very very nice,
later in their life they will be consumed by the reality of being a
teacher.
24. The Almost Retired Teacher
These teachers are a year away from retirement.
The Talk Show Queen/King Teacher
They are like the Oprah of the classroom. They talk about
something that aren’t related to the lessons at all.
The Teacher that tries to hard to be cool

awful their lives are. They talk about the decisions in life that
matter to them and why you should follow them.
The Almost In Time Teacher
These teachers are always late.
27. Racial Diversity
Race is a population that can
be distinguished from other populations
within a species by genetically transmitted
physical characteristics.
Racism consists of
both prejudice and discrimination based in
social perceptions of biological
differences between peoples.

“You have to taste a
culture to understand
it.”
30. – The main job in the classroom is to
teach the subject.
– We need to create classroom culture
in order to teach more effectively
– We need to be open to our students’
personal cultures as well.
Cultural Diversity
What is the role of recognizing cultural diversity
in our classrooms?
31. As cultures blend, it is important
to clarify which parts of our culture
we will not sacrifice:
•Freedom of
expression
•Civic
responsibility
•Respect for
individual
rights

33. SUMMARY:
Students who attend schools with a diverse population can
develop an understanding of the perspectives of children from
different backgrounds and learn to function in a multicultural,
multiethnic environment. Yet, as public schools become more
diverse, demands increase to find the most effective ways to help all
students succeed academically as well as learn to get along with
each other. Teachers are faced with the challenge of making
instruction "culturally responsive" for all students while not favoring
one group over another.
