What did you learn from the practice of free writing? Share your thoughts in form of paragraph. AnsBrainstorming: 1-Free writing 2-ideas 3-method 4-limit 5-writing skills 6-self-assurance 7-creativity 8-thoughts Paragraph: Since freewriting is a technique for generating ideas and clearing distracting thoughts, so in my opinion this method can help us to silence our inner critic, which can limit our creativity and thoughts. If I talk about myself then it helps me to boosts self-assurance & it aids me in the development of my writing skills. Furthermore, freewriting teaches me about how to talk momentarily without any limitations. 3. Write an email to alx@gmail.com, in the email discuss how social media freedom is destroying peace these days and what should be done to prevent/control it. To: alx@gmail.com From: nimrahassan605@gmail.com Subject: Destruction of peace by social media freedom and how can we stop it? Respected Sir, I hope everything is good at your end, my name is Nimra & I am currently doing BMS from Indus University. I saw your newspaper article about how social media freedom is destroying peace and you asked us for our input, so I'm sending you this email to share my thoughts on how social media freedom is disrupting peace & how we can prevent it. It's no longer a secret that social media freedom incites violence, and many sources distribute fake and fabricated news, making it even more difficult to trust an authentic source. False information can be propagated over social media, resulting in dangerous situations. Mob mentality is developed by freedom of speech if you take recent example, how Minar e Pakistan incident was used to defame Pakistan and many authentic sources were involved in it including big names like daily Pakistani & Iqrar ul hassan. We've also seen how social media has been used in the past to promote conflict between Sunni and Shia communities by sharing false information. In one instance, India planted multiple social media activists in Pakistan with the sole purpose of disrupting the peace, causing violence between religious communities, and inciting violence between different mobs, all of which were later exposed by Pakistan. For preventing it we can use stringent regulations and sanctions to deter the spread of fake news misinformation. We can prohibit news stations, as well as other pages or websites, from airing programs that promote violence and disturb the calm. Our government can release an official offence letter to all social media platforms and display it online for everyone to see, with penalties and criminal consequences for attempting to disrupt Pakistani peace. If you have any queries regards the topic then please don’t hesitate to contact me, you can reach me at my email address. Hope to get a good response from you.

Answer the following interview questions: Talk about yourself I've been working at Arena multimedia for the past two years as a graphic designer. With a degree from Indus University, I have some experience in video editing as well. My internship at Aptech institute is what actually got me into the field. I've realized that I have always been good with Photoshop and Adobe Premiere Pro throughout my career. Talk about your weaknesses Speaking to the general public always makes me nervous. Although I do not have to talk to a great deal of the public as a graphic designer, I still think it is a key skill to improve, particularly when I want to express my perspective at a meeting. Apart from that I have a tendency to be harsh on myself. Even if my work is well appreciated, I can't help but feel that I could have done more when I finish a project. This frequently leads me to overwork leaving me all exhausted. Talk about your strengths I believe that my greatest strength is my writing skills. I've never missed a deadline because I work well under pressure. Apart from that I am punctual and have a positive attitude towards my work and life. Why should we hire you? Honestly speaking I believe that I am the most qualified candidate for the job. I attentively read the job descriptions and am aware of what this position entails. I am confident in my ability to accomplish this job properly because of my knowledge, skills, and previous experiences. I am more qualified for this position than any other candidate. What makes you different than the other individuals? I have a photographic memory, I enjoy reading, and I am able to absorb a lot of information and apply what I learn in my workplace, which is a very unusual quality, according to my colleagues. Apart from that I have done diploma in photography as well. 6.
