The idea of E-Learning merely means electronic learning. It is multifaceted. It includes all forms of electronic devices that are involved in teaching and learning situation to make learning easy. The devices include computer and other audio-visual services. E-Learning encourages individual teachers to find out new ways of integrating technology and resources into their classroom settings. In education the use of the combination of traditional and E-Learning results in a new learning environment called Blended learning environment. It is, therefore, the current study is performed to inquire about the effectiveness of E-learning on the academic outcomes of the students. The study was focused on its objective of comparative analysis of the traditional means of education with the modern innovative way of teaching and learning known as E-learning. In this regards the best research strategy of experimental approach, pre-test and post-test control group deign, was adopted. Two government’s girls high school of Bannu, KP, of Biology students were taken as sample for the study. A pre-test was administered for the formation of two groups i.e.Control group and experimental group. The objective of the pre-test was to know prior knowledge of each student and to justly equalize the both groups.For the period of four week of teaching to both groups was equally done only with the exception of E-learning as a supplemental treatment to the experimental group was additionally provided. After the treatment in the stipulated time period, a post-test was taken from both groups to judge the effectiveness of E-learning method as compared to the face to face traditional method of teaching.Mean, standard deviation and t-test were used to determine the performance of both groups. Experimental group of the study performed well as compared to the control group which signifies the effectiveness of the E-learning as a supplement to usual teaching method. The new approach of teaching based on E-Learning was recommended as supplement to traditional method for instruction in secondary schools. However, it was suggested that teachers should be exposed to the new technology of E-Learning not only in the subject of Biology but also in other subjects.

چنچل ہوائوں سے باتیں

لہلہاتے کھیتوں کے نظارے

موسم کی حسین ادائیں

معطر خوشگوار فضائیں

گلابوں کی مسکراہٹیں ،کلیوں کی اٹھکیلیاں

شاخوں کی عصمت دری پر خشک پتوں کی ماتم

چلچلاتی دھوپ میں سورج کا انتقام

سیاہ بادلوںکے گھنیرے سائے

بارش کی بوندوں سے اٹھنے والی بھینی بھینی مہک

کتاب شرف المصطفی اور الشفا میں رسول اللہ ﷺ کی نبوت کے اعلام و دلائل کا تجزیاتی مطالعہ

In the status and degrees of spirituality, the highest ranking position is prophecy and apostleship in which a person gets free feeds and knowledge from the creator of the universe and then with this light and illumination brightens the hearts of other mankind. Indeed, it is an unusual claim that a prophet or a messenger does and in fact it requires strong evidences to prove. That’s why all prophets are awarded some qualities, discriminations, signs and evidences from Allah Almighty through which people clearly get awareness and acknowledgement. Such things are “Signs and Evidences of Prophecy” in which the greatest sign is “miracle”. The basic question of this article is that what are signs, evidences and arguments of prophecy in Sharaf-ul-Muṣṭafa and Al-Shifā? And what are their present implementation and importance? These books are famous for the dignity and rights of Prophet (S.A.W) and researched by scholars as a whole on their writers, contents, and methodology but not yet studied in this perspective. In this article few most important of them are selected and analyzed. Innocence and pure race, miraculous appearance, personality, debonairness, eloquence, stamp of prophet-hood, miracles and being illiterate etc. All are symptoms of prophecy of Muhammad (S.A.W). In contemporary situation the best way to prove truthfulness and greatness of Prophet (S.A.W) is to focus on better scientific, rational, logical and practical aspects of Muhammad’s (S.A.W) life and we have to apply it.    

Risk Assesment Studies of Engineered Toxin Proteins and Field Evaluation of Transgenic Plants

Insect pests are one of the major factors affecting crop production and a variety of chemical insecticides are being used to control pests, but due to their hazardous nature there is a need of alternative options in the form of biological control. The biological insecticides obtained from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) have been introduced almost two decades ago but resistance against Bt in field population of insects has been reported. Recently a new class of biological toxin gene, ω-HXTX-Hv1a (Hvt) from the Australian funnel web spider Hadronyche versuta has been introduced into cotton. This study evaluated the possible adverse effects of Hvt gene containing transgenic cotton through risk assessment studies. Sub-chronic feeding study was conducted in albino rabbits to evaluate the potential health effects of long-term consumption of a rodent diet containing Hvt cottonseed compared with a diet containing cottonseed from its near-isogenic control. Acute and sub-chronic studies in mice and rabbits showed that NOAEL was greater than 5000 mg per kg body weight of the test animals. No toxicologically significant differences were observed in nutritional performance variables, clinical hematology and chemistry between mice and rabbits fed with the Hvt cottonseed or purified protein from transformed Pichia and E. coli cells when compared to control treatment groups. Allergenicity assessment through primary skin irritation , mucous membrane irritation and primary ocular irritation tests showed that Hvt gene encoded toxin in the cotton or Pichia cells is safe ansd poses no risk as an allergen when applied to intact skin or mucous membrane. Agraonomic and yield parametrs of the Hvt cotton showed non-significant differences except their ability to resist the lepidopteran insect attack. Compositional anlysis of the Hvt cotton also indicated similar levels of the proteins, aminoacids, gossypol and carbohydrate content of the Hvt cotton is substantially equivalent to non-transgenic cotton. It was observed that the transgenic cotton carrying functional Hvt gene had non-significant effect on reproductive characteristics (pollen morphology, longevity and fertility), plant germination and soil microflora as compared to non-Hvt cotton. Moreover, root, stem and leaf extracts of cotton expressing Hvt gene showed non-significant allelopathic effect on the germination of tobacco seeds. Similarly, pests scouting of Hvt and non-Hvt cotton stands indicate that there was non-significant variation in the number of the insect species and their population size between Hvt and non-Hvt cotton, but the population density of H. armigera larvae was significantly low on Hvt cotton. These findings conclude that the transgenic cotton expressing Hvt gene did not poses any considerable risks or harm to the plant morphology, physiology and its surrounding environment and might be useful candidate gene against Lepidopteron pests.
