This research explores Chat -GPT inclusion into Pakistani higher education, addressing the issue of understanding teacher perspectives. To examine the relevance of this problem, an extensive survey involving 600 university teachers was undertaken using a positivist research paradigm. The findings show that teachers believe Chat-GPT has the ability to improve learning experiences by offering quick access to information and accommodating varied student demands. Concerns are raised, however about overreliance, ethical consequences, and possible impediments to critical thinking. These trends in data were revealed through statistical analysis, which included mean, standard deviation, correlation, and ANOVA. Concerns were raised, however, concerning the overreliance, ethical consequences, and possible barriers to critical thinking. Thus, longitudinal studies, qualitative research, thorough guidelines, and joint efforts are among the recommendations to enable the appropriate incorporation of AI technologies in education. This research adds to our understanding of the challenges of AI integration in education by highlighting need of balanced and well-informed educational methods.

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of dividend payouts in the banking sector, with specific focus on cash flow and earnings approaches. Study examines and tests the determinant variables of dividend payouts using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) Regression method. Data for this analysis is collected from the audited financial reports of 50 manufacturing companies listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange during the five-year period from 2017 to 2021. Study's results reveal that firms tend to exhibit higher dividend payouts when they project high profitability growth, indicating a correlation between profitability and dividend payments. However, study did not find a significant effect of earnings per share on dividend per share, despite the positive impact of profitability on dividend payout. On the other hand, cash flow per share demonstrated positive and significant influence on dividend per share. These findings offer valuable insights for the investors and decision-makers, providing them with useful information for making investment choices. The analysis allows for an examination of the factors that affect dividend decisions. This research expands the understanding of how cash flow and earnings influence dividend payouts and enhances the theoretical foundation of dividend policy in context of listed manufacturing companies.

This article aims to investigate effect of 360-degree leadership performance appraisals on organizational outcomes at the elementary school level. The research design employed was causal-comparative & cross-sectional survey constituted data collection method. Over multi-staged sampling techniques, a sample of 576 teachers was thus selected from Lahore district. Two self- developed questionnaires, i.e., 360 º Leadership Appraisal Questionnaire (α =.82) and Organizational Outcomes Questionnaire (α =.81), were used as data collection instruments. The study results revealed that 360 º leadership performance appraisal positively affected the organizational outcomes at elementary schools. Both (360º performance appraisal and organizational outcomes) were correlated positively with coefficient (r=.25; p<0.01). The findings highlight importance of multi-dimensional and inclusive approach to performance appraisals, involving feedback from multiple perspectives, for effective leadership development as well as improved organizational performance. Further research is necessary to explore the long-term effects of 360-degree leadership performance appraisals in the diverse educational settings and to address the potential challenges and limitations of the said approach.

The democratic environment plays a significant role in active learning and the development of social values among students. Democracy cannot be brought to the classroom but necessarily be developed there. Positivism was the paradigm and the key objective of this study was to examine the perception of university students about democratic classroom environment. A survey method was used and a questionnaire was filled out by university students (n=120). The questionnaire comprised of basic values (freedom, equality, and justice) of democracy. The data were analyzed using the SPSS and descriptive statistics. The findings revealed that there are no statistically significant differences between male and female students’ knowledge. The results provide significant information in reaching conclusion. The findings disclosed that if university teachers democratize their teaching, students learn more effectively. It is vital to nurture and grow democratic values in the students during learning experiences which would lead to a fairer society.

By analyzing Pakistan's Balance of payment from 1980 to 2019, the study aims to analyze the effect of various factors exchange rate, trade barriers and money supply on balance of trade. The empirical analysis investigated the SR and LR effect. A statistically significant LR relationship between the study variables is verified by the results except for foreign trade policy. The study found that in Pakistan, both monetarist and absorption approaches have insignificant foundation. Furthermore, the ER is insignificant in the short run at level and lag, while all other variables are statistically significant in SR. Thus, results provide significant information in reaching the desired conclusion. Based on findings this study suggests that the State bank is needed to play its role in fixing the balance of the trade problem by using money supply as a policy tool. Moreover, the authorities should focus upon the income rather than ER policy as a tool for correcting the Balance of the Payment.
