Empowering dental students' collaborative learning using peer assessment
As dental educators, we face challenges evaluating students' case presentations, including providing balanced assessments, timely constructive feedback and fostering both technical and professional skills. Traditional evaluation methods often led to student anxiety and missed peer-learning opportunities. Our goal was to create a supportive learning environment mirroring professional dental practice's collaborative nature. Adapted from social cons…
Pakistan Desires: Queer Futures Elsewhere
It would be fair to say that the publication of Pakistan Desires: Queer Futures Elsewhere is a timely move toward the internationalization of queer scholarship. The editor, Omar Kasmani, is boldly ambitious in his assertion about the book’s intervention in the field, viewing the collection as a ground-breaking representation of alternative views from the Global South that challenge the power structures of the Global North and their control over k…
Contemporary Pakistani Speculative Fiction and the Global Imaginary: Democratizing Human Futures
Covid-19 pandemic: Lessons from the HIV/Aids epidemic in Southern Africa
Using Malawi as a case study, this commentary takes a retrospective view of the HIV/AIDS epidemic to draw lessons about the spread of, and government response to, Covid-19 in Southern Africa. With the legacy of colonialism and the distortions wrought in by structural adjustment programs still alive, we argue that the same factors that propelled the spread of HIV/AIDS in Southern Africa continue to shape vulnerability and response to Covid-19 in d…
We are all migrants through time: History and geography in Mohsin Hamid's Exit West
Exit West reflects a progressive shift in Pakistani anglophone literature from the familiar framework of postcolonial writing back to writing beyond the 9/11 era. Set in a post-Brexit–Trump world, this speculative fiction seeks to democratize the future by re-imagining the relationship between history and geography, aligned with the dimensions of time and space. In Hamid's view, the present wish of humanity to go back towards past greatness poses…
I Am Malala: Human Rights and the Politics of Production, Marketing and Reception of the Post-9/11 Memoir
The last decade of the twentieth century witnessed a simultaneous rise of human rights discourse and life narrations that tell stories of human atrocities. This has led to memoirs becoming useful conduits for rights awareness. The publication of I am Malala is driven by the same purpose, and Western readers have recognized in Malala Yousafzai’s memoir an obvious message about girls’ right to education. However, the reception of Malala’s book has …
Daniyal Mueenuddin’s dying men
Daniyal Mueenuddin’s In Other Rooms, Other Wonders is an ominous reflection of Pakistani masculinity in a metamorphosed state. A disturbingly masculine vocabulary frames the appearance and actions of the female characters. In contrast, the speech and thought of the male characters is attenuated in words of loss and regret. Across a vast canvas spanning from the highest in social status to the lowest down the power ladder, Mueenuddin paints each m…
