دیکھو کب سے گم بیٹھا ہے
جانے کس کو سوچ رہا ہے
جانے تیرے دل میں کیا ہے
مجھ کو سمجھ نہیں آتا ہے
میں تو مدّت سے تنہا ہوں
حیرت سے کیوں دیکھ رہا ہے
دل میں سارا کرب چھپا کر
اک کورا کاغذ بھیجا ہے
پیار ، محبت کرنے والا
کورا کاغذ پڑھ سکتا ہے
دل اجڑا سا اسٹیشن ہے
اور اک شخص وہاں اترا ہے
جب تُو پہلی بار ملا تھا
تب سے تُو دل میں رہتا ہے
ساہی وال کو جاتے رستے
تُو کتنا اچھا لگتا ہے
ساہی وال محبت میری
یہ میرے دل میں بستا ہے
Aims Of Study: The purpose of the study was to assess the functional capabilities of patients with Stage III Parkinson's disease (PD). Functional status of PD patients declines due to impaired postural reflexes and characteristic loss of balance which became evident at Stage III thus activities of daily living (ADLs) are compromised as the severity of the disease increases.
Methodology: Descriptive case series was conducted on stage III PD patients (n=64). Patients with age ranges from 45 to 75 years were recruited and patients with other neurological issues were excluded. They were assessed using a Functional independence measure scale having reliability 0.95.
Results: Out of 64 patients, 75% required minimal assistance and 9.4% required supervision while performing the ADLs. Whereas, 81% of patients need 2 hours of personal care assistance according to burden of care.
Limitations & Future Implications: Only functional status of PD patient is determined no exercise regime or intervention were incorporated to assess their impact on the PD patient functional activities. Thus, future studies should be carried out to find the correlation between aerobic exercises and their impact on PD patient level of functional independence.
Originality: Information added was all taken from databases and reduced to similarity index and was not submitted to any other journal.
Conclusion: Stage III Parkinson’s disease patient required minimal level of assistance while performing tasks of daily living. However, majority of these patients required 2 hours of personal care assistance on average per day to compete with daily living.
This study entitled “A Comparative Study of Effects of Activity Based Teaching and Traditional Method Teaching in Mathematics at Elementary Level.” The objectives of the study were: i)To compare the students’ achievement taught through activity based method and the traditional teaching method in Mathematics subject ii) To check the retention power of students taught through activity based teaching iii) To identify the participation of students in activity based teaching iv) To find out the effectiveness of activity based teaching in Mathematics at elementary level v) To explain the potential role of activities in teaching Mathematics at elementary level vi) To enable the students to appreciate use of different terminologies of Geometry in their daily life and to suggest recommendations for conducting future research on the subject. The population of the study was consisted of all students of seventh class of Government Girls High School Bhedian Pattoki District Kasur. For selection of sample a pre-test was administered to all (76) students of class seventh in Govt. Girls High School Bhedian Pattoki District Kasur except ten students. Thirty students were assigned to experimental and thirty to control group on the basis of pre-test results comparing equal marks. In order to achieve the objectives of the study pre-test, post-test from the seventh class Mathematics Book prescribed by Punjab Text Book Board was developed to do the intervention and for data collection. Research tools (Pre-test, Post-test) were discussed with the teachers of Mathematics and were modified in the light of their opinion. The modified version was tried out on 10 students who were not included in the sample for pilot study and were further re-amended in term of difficulty level on the basis of pilot study. The Researcher personally taught both the groups (control and experimental). Independent sample t-test was applied to accept or reject a statement. Statistical analysis and interpretation of the test scores of experimental and control groups showed that activity-based teaching has a positive impact on the performance of the learners. It was found that students take more interest in the lesson if activities are used. There was a significant difference between the performance of experimental and control group after teaching Mathematics with activity-based teaching. The study concludes that with the help of activities teaching learning process can be facilitated and becomes more effective. Activities have proved to be of great importance in teaching learning process. Information provided through such teaching is concise and quick. Complex ideas can be understood with ease with the help of activity-based teaching. Activity based teaching stimulates a high degree of interest in the learners. They make the message clear.
