The current qualitative study was conducted to analyze the mathematics curriculum across grade levels for students’ critical thinking skills development. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyze the document with the facilitation of NVivo software. As per the analysis, Grades I-III cover core math concepts at an introductory level using real-life examples presented concretely. Then grades IV-VIII revisit these same ideas with more depth and add logical reasoning. Finally (IX-X) and higher secondary (XI-XII) levels aim to build a rigorous conceptual understanding of complex mathematical topics like calculus, vectors, and complex numbers as well as non-routine problem-solving capacity utilizing proof techniques and technology tools like MAPLE software. The research results show that the curriculum is indeed effective for 21st-century skills development such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and technological literacy. Students who complete this systematic program will be prepared for advanced studies or careers that require mathematical proficiency.

Climate change is a profound phenomenon that influences our environment in ways that not only create new problems but also intensify the existing ones. Drawing from comprehensive research, this article explores how climate change fosters change in policies and practices to counter such risks. A mixed method approach was implemented for this study, the first phase includes a quantitative analysis of existing policies, and the second phase includes a qualitative analysis. For this research paper, only qualitative findings of research are presented and discussed. Thematic areas include the impact of climate change on natural disasters, socio-economic implications, resilient urban planning and infrastructure development, mainstreaming climate science into DRR and emergency preparedness, international collaboration and policy formulation, and community-based approaches and indigenous knowledge integration. Study shows complicated interdependencies and cause-and-effect interactions between climate parameters and natural disasters.

Blackboard is an Internet teaching management platform that allows a virtual learning environment via the Internet. It is the most popular system used by universities and educational institutions worldwide. However, this study is more concerned with foreign language (EFL) students' perceptions of the use of Blackboard in their courses. For this reason, we focused on 100 EFL students as respondents to the online questionnaire who attended the Language Department-College of Science and Humanities at Rumaah-Majmmah University in this research. Whereas, findings from both the survey data were analyzed by using (the SPSS Program) with the Lickert scale method showed participants had positive perceptions of the use of Blackboard technology for educational purposes. The results of students' perceptions proved the usefulness of Blackboard technology in the field of education. Hence, the suggestions of this study could be shared with other educational institutions in the kingdom.

This study addresses the question of how education can foster an entrepreneurial mindset, one of the determinants of success in the current, novelty driven economy. These studies identify factors such as the quality of entrepreneurial education, the provision of institutional support, attitudes to entrepreneurship, and a mediating effect of technology integration to inform barriers and opportunities to embedding entrepreneurial concepts across education models. Quantitative analysis and structural equation modeling are used in the paper, stressing the importances of experiential learning, institutional change and cultural inclusivity in entrepreneurial capability development. Results provide instructively useful [i.e., practically useful] learnings for educators and policymakers to design novel strategies for the learning experience that foster creativity, resilience and adaptability. The current study also has an added contribution to the literature on entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial education's potential to drive societal innovation and economic growth.

Current and emerging trends in architectural education in Pakistan are changing locally and internationally, equally by environmental and socio- cultural factors. Especially with the current global trend towards more sustainability, Architectural education works to prepare its students for the current and future architectural practice. It has become critical aspect of Architectural education to raise awareness among future architects about the environmental impact of Architecture. In this context, promoting the term of “sustainable architectural education” has become a current trend globally. Consequently, the schools of architecture have integrated sustainability principles in their curricula, world wide. This shift raises key questions regarding the structural models and integration approaches used to incorporate sustainability education into architectural programs. The objectives of this paper is to examine the structural models adopted by selected schools of architecture in the city of Lahore and to assess the extent to which sustainability knowledge is emphasized within their curricula.
