Living together is the natural instinct of human beings, who rely on communication for fulfilling their needs and conveying their feelings. A lively and peaceful life depends on effective communication which minimizes the chances of conflict. Whereas, ineffective communication leads to create ambiguities, misunderstandings and conflicts. Being a complete code of life, Islam provides the required guidelines for effective communication. The verses of the Holy Quran and Traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) highlight this topic. Similarly, the life of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the practical example of effective communication. The current paper deals with the topic of effective communication in the light of Islamic teachings.
The elementary education in Pakistan was focused even from the creation of Pakistan but the previous successive Govt: could not give appropriate value to elementary education practically. The size of the problem has become now so huge that it cannot be solved merely through Govt. efforts until and unless the participation of every individual is ensured in these efforts against illiteracy. The NGOs started efforts to fight along the govt: and extended helping hand in the matter to support the elementary education. The research study is carried out to see the contribution of NGOs in promoting the elementary education in the southern districts of khyber pakhtunkhwa. The study is descriptive in nature & researcher self-developed questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. The population of the study consisted of all the elementary schools teachers and educational administrative heads in public sector schools of the six districts. For this purpose, 573 samples (370 teachers and 203 heads) were randomly selected as respondents. For statistical treatment, computer based software known as Statistical Package for Social Sciences (S.P.S.S) version 20 was applied. Mean, t-test, standard deviation, one-way ANNOVA and tukey test were used for analysis of data. The responses of teachers and administrative heads of formal as well as non-formal sector showed significant positive views about the role of NGOs in the promotion of elementary education in regard to all five variables “support to school”, “support to parents”, “support to students” and “support to co-curricular activities”. Significance difference was found between the views of male and female teachers regarding the efficiency of NGOs in supporting teachers at elementary level. Gender did not differentiate the NGOs efficiency in “support to school”, “support to parents”, “support to students” and “support to co-curricular activities”. Significance difference was found between the views of rural and urban teachers regarding the efficiency of NGOs. On the whole it is concluded that despite few reservations made by the respondents about some initiatives of NGOs, over all NGOs are performing a valuable role in promoting elementary education and producing conducive environment in public sector schools of KP. The staff of NGOs may be properly trained in streamlining the matters of schools of formal as well as non-formal in a more efficient way.
