The world is rapidly progressing, driven by innovative education. Countries like Japan, China, Russia and America are significantly contributing to universal progress, earning them recognition as global leaders in innovation.
Their remarkable contributions have enabled these nations to spearhead global growth. For instance, America’s establishment of institutions like Silicon Valley and NASA has played a pivotal role in driving progress. The cornerstone of their success lies in their innovative education systems. In America, a strong emphasis is placed on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education, equipping students with skills essential for technological advancements, innovation, and scientific research. Similarly, Japan’s Osaka University, renowned for its breakthroughs in medicine and technology, and China’s Tsinghua University, acclaimed for its research projects in engineering, technology and computer science, exemplify world-class research institutions.
However, in stark contrast, Pakistan’s education system lags far behind. Students are in dire need of training to pursue careers in these fields. The country’s repetitive education system poses a significant hindrance to students’ learning and development. To bridge this gap, it is crucial to open doors to technological careers and research fields, enabling students to transition from passive consumers of technology to proficient coders and technologically literate individuals.
