مولاناعبدالماجد دریابادی
افسوس ہے بہت دنوں سے جس کا کھٹکا لگاہوا تھا آخر وہ دن بھی آگیا یعنی مولانا عبدالماجد صاحب دریابادی نے کم وبیش ۸۵برس کی عمر میں ایک طویل علالت کے بعد۶/جنوری ۱۹۷۷ء کواپنے وطن دریا باد میں وفات پائی۔ اناﷲ واناالیہ راجعون۔
مولانا اپنی خصوصیات اورکمالات واوصاف کے باعث ایک خاص اور نمایاں شخصیت کے مالک تھے۔ برصغیر ہندوپاک کے علمی اورادبی اوراسلامی حلقے اُن کو اپنا بزرگ مانتے اوراس لیے ان کا بڑا ادب واحترام کرتے تھے۔مولانا کی اصل تعلیم انگریزی کی تھی، فلسفہ اورنفسیات اُن کے خاص مضمون تھے۔لکھنؤ سے بی۔اے کیا تھا اس کے بعد کچھ دنوں علی گڑھ میں بھی رہے، لیکن ایم۔اے نہ کرسکے۔ یہ وہ زمانہ تھا جب کہ بی۔اے کی قدر آج کل کے پی ایچ۔ ڈی سے بھی زیادہ ہوتی تھی اوروہ درحقیقت ان سے زیادہ قابل اور لائق بھی ہوتا۔مولانا نے باقاعدہ کبھی اورکہیں ملازمت نہیں کی۔ تعلیم سے فراغت کے بعد کچھ دنوں دار الترجمہ حیدرآباد دکن سے منسلک رہے اورمنطق و فلسفہ کی بعض کتابوں کو انگریزی سے اردو میں منتقل کیا، مگر وہاں جی نہ لگااوروطن چلے آئے، یہاں آکر ایسے جمے کہ بڑے بڑے انقلابات آئے، زمین اورآسمان زیروزبر ہوگئے مگر مولانا اپنے قصباتی کنج عافیت سے نہ نکلے اورساری عمر وہیں گزار دی۔
مولانا کی تصنیفی زندگی کاآغازایک فلسفی اوراردو شعر وادب کے ایک نقاد کی حیثیت سے ہوا۔ مطالعہ کے دھنی اوررسیا،نظر میں وسعت اورذہانت وفطانت خداداد، اس زمانہ کے باکمال ارباب قلم کی معیت وصحبت، پھر سب سے بڑی بات یہ کہ انشاوتحریر کاایک منفرد اسلوب، ان سب چیزوں نے مل جل کر عنفوان شباب میں ہی اردو زبان کاایک ممتاز ادیب اورمصنف بنادیا۔مولانا نے تذکرۂ و سوانح،شعر وادب،تاریخ وفلسفہ اوراجتماعی مسائل، ان سب پربہت کچھ لکھا اور اچھے سے اچھا لکھا، لیکن آپ کاسب سے بڑا کارنامہ...

Cartoons as A Tool of Religious Instruction for School-Going Children: A Case Study of Sheikhupura City

This research elaborates on utilization of cartoons as a tool of religious instruction for children. Cartoons can be used as an instrument for children’s mental development because a child’s mind is like a plain slate, what you write leaves a long-lasting impact. Cartoons have become a favorite activity of children and they spend most of their leisure time on watching cartoons. Children’s interest in cartoons also impacts their mind according to the content and concept of cartoons. For this aim, cartoons with religious instructions were shown to children and interview of some children’s parents and teachers were done in Sheikhupura. The data collected from the observations and interviews done qualitatively for this research shows that cartoons are a very effective source of religious instruction for children. Children not only understand these instructions easily but also try to follow them.

Current Practices of Teachers Performance Appraisal: A Case Study of a Community-Based School

This research was an attempt to find out the current practice of teachers' performance appraisal of a community-based school and its implications for management's role in implementing the appraised processes effectively. Appraisal is generally used for both accountability and professional development. This mostly depends on the school's objectives for carrying out the appraisal. It is noted that teachers get uncomfortable and feel threatened by the performance appraisal process. This could be for two main reasons: (a) when the objectives of appraisal exercises are not made clear to the teachers, they do not know what this would lead to; (b) teachers become threatened if they know that, the school will use the findings to decide about teachers annual increments and promotions. Literature, however, suggests that performance appraisal should be for teachers' professional development. The exercise should be a road map for teachers and finding should help teachers to grow professionally. I carried out an exploratory case study to find out the current practices of carrying out teachers' performance appraisal of a particular school; their perceptions about the teachers' performance appraisal and to know whether the findings of teachers' performance appraisal enabled the teachers to grow professionally. The findings of the study revealed that, the teachers associated the performance appraisal not with professional growth but with the amount of increment in salary, dismissal in case of poor performance and promotion or demotion. However, there are different perceptions about the utility of appraisal among the stakeholders. Some relate this to professional development, others categorize the teachers in A' and B' category and based on this categorizes give increments. It was evident that the purpose of the practice is not clear to teachers. Appraisers do not negotiate and inform the details on which teachers are appraised. There are no pre and post appraisal meetings to discuss teachers' progress and future needs. Also there is lack of clarity about the purpose and objectives of being appraisal In view of the findings and considering the importance of the performance appraisal exercise, this dissertation recommends that objectives of teachers' performance appraisal be shared with teachers; the system should be more transparent and proper procedure of appraisal should be followed to gain maximum benefit from it and give qualitative feedback to the teachers.
