تعلیم ایسی ہو کہ مکمل اخبار سمجھ سکیں

                 تعلیم کا ذکر چھڑتے ہی ہمارے ذہن میں اسکول کا ایک نقشہ کھینچتا ہے جس میں ممکن ہے ایک خوبصورت سی عمارت، بہت سارے کلاسس، گھومتے پھرتے بچے، کھیل کا میدان، پڑھاتے وقت نگرانی کرتے ٹیچر، تختئہ سیاہ، بہت سارے نقشہ جات، چارٹس، جگہ جگہ لکھی گئی مختصر سی عبارتیں، غرض یہ کہ ایک منظم ماحول تصور کا حصّہ بنتا ہے۔ اس لحاظ سے جب میں نے تعلیم کا مطلب دوبارہ تلاش کیا تو پتہ چلا کہ تعلیم ایک ایسا عمل ہے جس میں اسکول یا کالج کی سطح پر با سلیقہ ہدایات دی اور لی جاتی ہیں اور کل ملا کر یہ طلبہ کو روشناس کرنے والا ایک عمل ہے۔ لیکن یہ روشناس کرنے والا عمل زندگی بھر جاری رہنا چاہیے، اس لئے تعلیم کو گہوارے سے لے کر گور تک جاری رکھنے والے عمل کے طور پر بھی دیکھاجاتا ہے۔ مختلف دانشوروں نے تعلیم کو اپنے ہی طور پر پیش کیا ہے، مثال کے طور پر گاندھی جی چاہتے تھے کے کوئی شخص چھوٹا ہو یا بڑا، اس میں نظر آنے والی ساری خوبیاں اجاگر ہونی چاہیے۔ انکے مطابق تعلیم کا مطلب، "بچے اور بڑے کے جسم، ذہن اور روح کو مکمل طور پر پروان چڑھانا ہے"۔ جان ڈیوے نے تعلیمی عمل سے و...

Introduction of Prof. Yash P. Aggarwal* I am happy to introduce Prof. Yash P. Aggarwal an eminent teacher educator to the University in general and Department of Education and Training in particular and be part of a guest lecturer in the Department of Education and Training, MANUU, Hyderabad. It is my pleasure to introduce Prof. Aggarwal, who himself is well aware of Urdu and loves Urdu. This is not his first but, second visit to MANUU and to the department. In my informal interaction, he informed me that he has studied Urdu till his 10 th standard, and used this language along with Persian for interaction and correspondence with his father, which rarely most of us do today, as today’s whatsApp, Facebook, email takes us away from our languages and make us interact in an alien language English with our own people, which is knowingly or unknowingly adopted by all of us. Dr. Aggarwal had a humble beginning as he started his career as a school teacher thereafter he ros...
