The focus of the research was to find science teachers' philosophy about the nature of science NOS in philosophical perspectives serving in the public sector universities of Pakistan. The descriptive research method was used to investigate the difference in perceptions of the science teachers about NOS on the basis of gender and subject. An online questionnaire was utilized in order to gather data from respondents. Different constructs of NOS were identified to explore.

It is recommended to provide orientation to science teachers in order to build NOS towards concept clarification during the process of the teaching-learning process.

This study investigates the role of digital technologies in enhancing student engagement in science education at the higher secondary level, focusing on institutions in Multan. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from 203 students through a structured questionnaire based on a 5-point Likert scale. The results indicate that digital tools such as simulations, virtual labs, and multimedia resources significantly improve students' motivation, participation, and conceptual understanding. Female students demonstrated slightly higher engagement levels compared to males. A strong positive correlation was found between enabling factors and engagement (r = 0.60), while challenges showed a negative correlation (r = 0.42). The findings underscore the need for strategic investments in digital infrastructure, teacher training, and curriculum-aligned content. This research contributes to developing effective digital teaching strategies and provides actionable insights for educators and policymakers aiming to enhance science education through technology integration in secondary schools.
