It seems clear, after decades of research into classroom, that teacher’s expectations have a strong impact on pupil performance. Thus, the role of a teacher in education system at any level is pivotal. Children usually emulate their teachers in habits and conduct. It is, therefore, necessary that in their teacher, the students find a role model to imitate. To make teachers effective role models and to enhance the quality of education by making the teachers more curious, creative communicators, patient, flexible, and tireless, the teacher’s professional development programmes are an integral part of an education system at any level. The problems influencing education were not created overnight and they cannot be solved quickly. The education environment is very complex. Quality provides educational professionals with the structure and techniques necessary to improve every educational process. Quality teacher education programs have to be successfully implemented. Post-graduate Teacher’s Training Institutes in Pakistan grant the Master of Education (MA / MEd), Master of Philosophy (MPhil) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph D) post-graduate degrees in the field of Education to enhance the careers and accelerate the professional development of educators, but this study will focus on Master of Education (MA / MEd). The objectives of study were: (1) to evaluate MA education programmes of teacher education in public sector universities and colleges on the basis of CIIP model of evaluation (2) to explore the weaknesses and strengths of MA Education programme of Pakistan (3) to suggest improvements in existing curriculum, teachers’ qualification, xiiiteaching methods and teaching aids/innovations in MA Education programme of Pakistan and (4) to propose an effective model for Post-Graduate teacher education programme of MA Education for implementation in the country. The population of the study was all Heads of Education departments of public sector Universities, Heads of Government Colleges of Education, teacher educators of public sector Universities and Government Colleges of Education and prospective teachers enrolled in public sector Universities and Government Colleges, where the Master degree of Education (MA Education) programme was offered in Pakistan. The sample of 10 Heads of Education departments of public sector Universities, 10 Heads of Government Colleges of Education, 56 teacher educators of 10 public sector Universities and 10 Government Colleges of Education and 200 prospective teachers enrolled in public sector Universities and Government Colleges, where the Master degree of Education (MA/MEd) was offered in Pakistan, was selected through cluster random sampling. For the collection of data, three questionnaires, one each for heads of Institutions, teacher educators and prospective teachers, were developed. After pilot- testing and improvement of research instrument, the researcher personally visited the sample institutions for data collection. For data analysis chi-square as a contingency test and frequencies were applied for identifying the trends from the frequency of responses on each questionnaire item. In the light of views of prospective teachers, teachers and heads of education department and respective institutions, it was concluded that the teaching faculty of MA education programme was using a variety of teaching methods according to the nature xivof objectives, content and students. Evaluation systems for students of MA education programme were found satisfactory. The study revealed that admission criteria for MA education programme required to be restructured. In the same way, existing curriculum of MA education programme need revision by getting feedback from faculty members to meet the up coming demands. On the other hand, duration of MA education programme and practice teaching was not found enough. In order to be creative and innovative, less research work was conducted by teaching faculty and students of MA education programme, therefore, less number of publications such as bulletins and journals but more research reports were produced. More rewards and incentives required to be awarded to increase students and teachers’ performance. Seminars and workshops for prospective teachers and refresher courses for teaching faculty required to be conducted on regular basis. Majority of teaching faculty for MA education programme was found only with master degree qualification. There was a strong need to appoint more qualified teachers. The results of study uncovered various unresolved issues of existing Post- Graduate Teacher Education Programme of Pakistan. It is recommended that required changes be introduced in admission criteria, curriculum, duration of degree programme, teaching-practice, research work, rewards and incentives, etc. of existing MA Education Programme in Pakistan.

کوڑا جوبن

کوڑا جوبن
نخرے نال جاندیئے مٹیارے جوبن کوڑا تیرا
ایہہ چار دناں دی چاندنی فیر ہونا سدا ہنیرا

تیتھے چڑھیا حسن جوانی نی
مغروری چھڈ ، سب فانی نی
توں چھیتی رڑک مدھانی نی
نہیں رات دا فیر سویرا نی
ایہہ جوبن کوڑا تیرا نی

تینوں حسن دی چڑھی خماری نی
تیری کیوں اڑیے مت ماری نی
ایتھے پھردے پئے وپاری نی
انہاں لَے جانا، بنھ سہرا نی
ایہہ جوبن کوڑا تیرا نی

تیرے حسن دا مچیا شور کڑے
تیرے اندر تیرا چور کڑے
ایہہ ہویا اے منہ زور کڑے
ایہہ بھرم نہ رکھسی تیرا نی
ایہہ جوبن کوڑا تیرا نی

ایس حسن توں ہو بیزار کڑے
ایس کرنا تینوں خوار کڑے
توں لگسیں کسراں پار کڑے
ایتھے کسے نہ پانا پھیرا نی
ایہہ جوبن کوڑا تیرا نی

کیہ کرنا حسن تے مان کڑے
ہک دن چھڈنا ایہہ جہان کڑے
رکھیں اللہ ول دھیان کڑے
جہدا ہر دم فضل گھنیرا نی
ایہہ جوبن کوڑا تیرا نی

تربية اليتيم في ضوء الأسلوب القرآني

No doubt, that Allah’s book, the Holy Quran came for gathering the hearts, joining the ranks, strengthening the love and affection, kindness and justice, coordination between family and society, to build the strong coordinated society and orphan especially about the loss of their rights and depriving of their properties or engulf them wrongly. This paper discusses the care of the Quran with the orphans in all the dimensions of their rights and the situation of Qura’nic training/education for them, so that they can become strong parts for the society. Most of the coming verses discusses/narrates about them. Stating the meaning from them for all the justices that the Quran preceded all those demanding the justice for orphans rather it gave them with complete explanations. No explanations disturb anything about it knowledgeable, that the verses of the Quran presented 22 verses in which word of the orphan mentioned with the people 8 times and with the dual once and with the plural 14 times and he who explore these verses finds them divided into three types and the 1st type presents the mentioning of kindness/ charity, and testament/will for them in our Shariah and in the previous Shariahs, and the 2nd type mentions their social rights, so this paper studies all the dimensions of orphans’ life in the light of Qura’nic method with detail, so I liked to divide my this research paper into preface, 3 chapters and ending whereas preface includes the definition of orphan, and 1st chapter states the kindness/charity to the orphan and testament for them in the light of our Shariah and including the definition of orphan, and 2nd chapter presents their social rights as the 3rd takes care of their financial rights. In the ending comes with the important recommendations and suggestions.

Ferrocenyl Amides, Promising Materials for Certain Potential Applications

Some ferrocenyl amides were synthesized by the solution phase condensation reaction of 4-ferrocenyl benzoyl chloride and 4-ferrocenyl aniline with organic amine and acid chloride derivatives respectively. A series of semi aromatic amine derivatives with variable alkyl chain at one end was prepared in a three step process which was condensed with 4-ferrocenyl benzoyl chloride resulting in the formation of ferrocene derivatives with two amide bonds. Another series with a single amide bond was prepared by the condensation of 4-ferrocenyl aniline with n-alkyl acid chloride derivatives of different chain length. The third series of ferrocenyl amides was synthesized by the reaction of 4-alkoxy benzoyl chloride and 4-ferrocenyl aniline to get seven compounds with variable alkoxy chain. The fourth and final series was prepared by using 4-(4- alkoxy phenyl) benzoyl chloride derivative to condense with 4-ferrocenyl aniline and five products bearing different alkoxy end groups were obtained. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by their physical properties, elemental analysis, FTIR and 1 H/ 13 CNMR spectroscopic techniques for the structure elucidation. The crystals of some organic intermediates were also developed and studied for the single crystal XRD structural factors. A strong intermolecular H-bonding was confirmed for the secondary amide groups present within all the molecules of the intermediates and final products by spectroscopic and XRD techniques. These secondary types of forces are pre-requisite for a compound to interact with the bio molecules such as DNA by developing some intermolecular forces between the two. Therefore, the synthesized nitroaromatic compounds and their amine derivatives along with ferrocenyl amides were studied for the DNA-binding properties by using UV visible spectroscopic and cyclic voltammetric techniques. The DNA-interactional behaviour of organic intermediates was also supported by the docking studies leading to the conformation of bonding modes that are accessible. Ferrocenyl amides and nitroaromatic compounds were investigated for their electrochemical properties and the redox mechanism involved for the both was suggested using cyclic voltammetric methods. The melting point behavior of the synthesized materials was also depictive of their mesomorphic nature, so the selected compounds were studied for the metallomesogenic properties using DSC and POM techniques. The phase transition temperatures and the heat changes associated with different transitions were evaluated for the thermodynamic behavior of the materials and texture of the iiiAbstract mesophases were studied by POM at different temperatures. The thermotropic liquid crystalline nature of the synthesized compounds was found to have some relationship with the structure of molecules which was further evaluated by the theoretical calculations of the rigid and flexible part lengths of molecules by using PM6 method. The effect of alkyl and alkoxy chain lengths on the electrochemical, DNA-binding and liquid crystalline properties were studied in detail and found to influence the properties in following order; liquid crystalline > electrochemical > DNA-binding properties. In fact, it has no effect on DNA-binding strength as alkyl chain is not being actively involved in the binding process.
