The University is recognized in Pakistan and abroad as an Institution of higher academic standards and its graduates receive acceptance in universities and research institutions the world over. The University has also established research collaboration with selected universities/research organizations in United States, Europe and South Asia. The University is rated as one of top public institution of higher education in Pakistan which has qualified team of teachers and researchers. More than 80% of the teachers hold doctoral degrees with experience of working in renowned universities of the world.

The inclusion of Quaid-i-Azam University in Top 100 Engineering and IT Universities is a good sign for all the aspiring students of Pakistan. Let’s pray to Allah Almighty for prosperity of Pakistan.

With the advancement in technology and IT sector Computer Systems are developing quickly.

The Hot discussion that often occupies the Spotlight is “Will Computers Rule Out the Role of Human Teachers Into The Class Room”.

A lot of People particiapte in this discussion and give various facts and figures to justify their support against or in the Favor of this topic.

Personally being Rationale I feel that the role of Human Teachers in the Learning Process will remain intact.

Computers can not think for themselves. Computers are man made inventions and they rely on a Human to input Instructions in them.

Unlike Humans they lack brains so are unable to think and make new discoveries. Computers can only display what the Human asks them to for.

In the Class Room there are a lot of Students from various backgrounds. A Human is always needed for their ethical and emotional training. Some Human is needed to inform them them of the dreadful circumstances that may emerge if they fail to engross themselves whole heartedly into their studies.

Computers lack emotions so if a Student is sad as a rsult of some unfavorable even the Computers are unable to cheer him up. A Human is always needed to pick up deficiencies in the Children.

The mistakes that students commit can be corrected by Computer but Computer can not make them confident not to repeat these mistakes again.

Some Students are slow while others are quick so A Human is needed to take them on the pace track of learning.

Indeed the verdict goes that Computers could be used as Guides in the Classroom to enable students learn their lessons with interactivity but can not replace human teachers as they are an integral part in teaching process and a Human who has gone through the same phase is able to guide aspiring Students in a better way then anything else.

According to a research by Scientists the Excess of Carbon Dioxide (Co2) is harmful for the Human Beings.

On the Other hand Plants Just Love being living in Elevated Levels of Carbon Dioxide. The Above is Just our Own perception. When Plants are Exposed to high levels of Carbon Dioxide in The Environment then their assilmilation of Nitrate from the Soil is inhibited. The Excess Carbon Dioxide in the environment reduces Photosynthesis and growth in Plants.

Scientists conducted a Study where Wheat and Arabidopsis were exposed to high levels of Carbon Dioxide through Different methods and the results Justified that elevated levels of Carbon Dioxide inhibits the Plant ability to utilize Nitrates from the Soil and convert them into nitrogen compounds.

Plants may adopt to the situation of Co2 excess but we will need to use more fertilizer in order to maintain the Balance of Nutrients in the soil for the Plants to survive once the elevated level of Co2 has ended.

The Verdict is that the relative ability of soil ammonium and nitrate to most plants will become increasingly important in determining their productivity as well as quality of the Food.
