Gender is not a stable identity but a performative act constituted by repeated societal norms" Butler (1990). The paper under analysis pertains to the two fresh and groundbreaking plays Naga-Mandala and Kala Meda Bhes by Indian and Pakistani playwrights who are quite successful and prolific writers in the arena of South Asian Literature. The aim of this study is to discover the shushed and quietened voices of women in the both plays in one way of the other. The paper is based on a qualitative research with the use of textual method and discourse analysis particularly on both the plays with the help of websites, poems, dictionaries and papers to support this research. The paper will trigger the feminist elements and identity of the Indo-Pakistani women with comparative analysis.

The research endeavor embarks on an extensive investigation into the development and application of formative assessment tasks in select classrooms, aiming to shed light on the potential of such interventions in promoting STEM. The research will involve the use of a mixed-methods approach to capture comprehensive data, combining qualitative observations, student interviews, and quantitative assessments. The findings will highlight the multifaceted impact of formative assessment on the students' cognitive and metacognitive development, fostering higher-order critical thinking skills and enhancing problem-solving capabilities. While the paper would celebrate the numerous benefits of formative assessment in STEM Education, it also acknowledges the challenges encountered during its implementation. These challenges range from initial resistance among educators to time constraints within the curriculum. Addressing these obstacles requires a transformative shift in pedagogical practices, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and embracing a growth-oriented mindset. In conclusion, this paper serves as a comprehensive exploration of using Formative Assessment to promote STEM Education in early grades. By delving into the process of task development, its implementation, and subsequent impact, the paper offers valuable insights into the symbiotic relationship between Formative Assessment and STEM learning. The contributions of this research extend to both curriculum development and assessment practices, offering a compelling roadmap for educators and policymakers seeking to empower the next generation of STEM innovators for diverse policy decisions.

If viewed aptly, women have always been considered to be domesticated product, lantern of house and sandal of foot. In this research, the points will be brought into lime light that how women are tricked to merely be a mothering figure in the society having sacrificed and butchered their own talents, aims, goals and achievements. Pride and Prejudice, Withering Heights, The Mill on the Floss will be a primary text while there will also be different secondary texts such as: articles, research papers, websites, dictionaries and some books which will support this research. Researchers will draw two conclusions from this paper i.e., the first one is clutches of male dominions and patriarchy. The second one is empowerment in subjugation of women which ultimately happens to be on account of forceful implications of the society. The aim of this research is to focalize and dig out the salient points that how and why woman is merely limited to the mothering.

With an endeavour, my research aims at highlighting the Trauma in Hedda Gabler, a play in which trauma ultimately brings about protagonist’s death by virtue of societal conventions and her conscience. Although Ibsen is a renowned feminist and psychoanalyst playwright yet there is need to unveil trauma leading to Hedda’s suicide. This paper will be based on a qualitative research and the framework will be based on textual analysis and critical discourse analysis. With the help of TA, CDA and trauma theory the paper will reveal the hidden ideologies, bothersome and unwanted fears of the character, causing her to be traumatized. Particularly, the play Hedda Gabler by Henrik Ibsen will be a primary text while there will also be different secondary texts such as: articles, research papers, websites, dictionaries and some books which will support this research. Researchers will draw two conclusions from this paper i.e. the first one is broader sense of trauma and the second one is suicide which ultimately happens to be on account of forceful implications of the society. Aim of my research is to justify that Hedda is traumatized by her unending alienation, societal conventions and criticism about being scandalized which ultimately make her commit suicide. Aim of my research is to justify that Hedda is traumatized and compelled to commits suicide by virtue of societal conventions, pressure of people’s ruthless criticism and unending alienation.
