"Live as if you were to die tomorrow; Learn as if you were to live forever."
Hadia Aslam
Educational Technology and Learning Design doctoral student in the Faculty of Education
I have been a learner throughout my life. Love for learning is inherent as I was born in a family of teachers. I am adventurous and fun loving. I love to read books and watch movies.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO COME TO ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV?
¶¡ÏãÔ°AV is world renowned for its excellence in research and student diversity. Besides, very few universities in the world are currently offering a PhD in ETLD. I was always interested to pursue my research in educational technology, so nothing would have been a greater choice than ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR RESEARCH OR YOUR PROGRAM TO A FAMILY MEMBER?
My program focuses on how technology can be used in educational settings for improving the instructional/ training/ learning goals. The program also aims to facilitate learning and improving performance by creating and managing appropriate technological resources.
WHAT ARE YOU PARTICULARLY ENJOYING ABOUT YOUR STUDIES/RESEARCH AT ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV?
Words can't describe my feelings at ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV. I am enjoying every single moment here. I love the campus in the serene mountains, the peace and the calmness. It is some other world, probably heaven.
HAVE YOU BEEN THE RECIPIENT OF ANY MAJOR OR DONOR-FUNDED AWARDS? IF SO, PLEASE TELL US WHICH ONES AND A LITTLE ABOUT HOW THE AWARDS HAVE IMPACTED YOUR STUDIES AND/OR RESEARCH.
I have been awarded the Graduate Entrance Scholarship and it has been very helpful for me as I am international student. This has helped me to study without being worried about the fee.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR PROGRAM/POSTDOC POSITION TO SOMEONE STILL SEARCHING FOR A PROGRAM OR POSTDOC POSITION?
This program will open up many doors of opportunities for you because the field of ETLD is evolving.
