Explained: Why functional beverages are gaining popularity among exam-going students

New Delhi: As competitive exams grow more intense and preparation cycles extend across months, student wellness is increasingly being viewed as a factor influencing academic performance rather than a separate concern. Education and health experts note that functional beverages may become a regular part of exam-season routines, reflecting broader changes in how students manage focus, stress, hydration, and sleep. During exam periods, students often rely on high-caffeine drinks to push through long study hours. However, rising reports of sleep disruption, anxiety, and burnout among adolescents and college students have led to closer scrutiny of these habits. In an exclusive conversation with TV9English, Nidhi Saxena, Founder of Delulu- iShots Beverages Pvt Ltd, points out how the performance during exams depends not only on study time, but also on cognitive stability and physical well-being. Functional beverages—drinks formulated for specific physiological needs such as sustained...

Small habits that build big thinkers: Explore essential 21st century skills for students

New Delhi:  Walking into a classroom full of children, it 's hard not to notice young minds brimming with curiosity and eagerness to make sense of the world. Children try patterns, test ideas, ask questions, and build meaning with a natural ease that adults often tend to lose. While the popular notion is to teach children how to think, little attention is given to preserving this instinct long enough for it to grow into strong reasoning skills in later years. Today, people are engrossed in conversations that emphasise the need for stronger thinking skills, flexible mindsets and problem-solving ability. These qualities, often labelled as 21st-century skills, are linked to how well young people adapt to new roles, new tools and new expectations. Many believe these abilities develop only in senior classes or college. But, in reality, skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, and collaboration are shaped in the first eight years of structured schooling....

From Degrees to Digital Credentials: How 2026 will reshape trust in skill-based learning

New Delhi:  A degree once served as a simple marker of readiness. It reflected time spent learning, exposure to ideas, and a basic level of competence. That reference point is less dependable today. A lot of the work happening now uses tools and systems that were not part of traditional curricula. Artificial intelligence sits at the centre of this change. IBM’s observation that “AI won’t replace people, but people who use AI will replace people who don’t”, reflects what is already visible inside companies. Intelligent systems support planning, automate repetitive tasks, and assist creative output. In an exclusive conversation with TV9 English, Abdul Ahad, General Manager of Global Expansion at N+, said that hiring decisions now revolve around whether someone can actually use these systems, and not whether they have studied them. Roles evolve faster than preparation Job definitions do not remain static for long. The World Economic Forum expects nearly half of core job skills...
