The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of teacher pedagogy in improving tertiary level students’ English writing skill and self-perceptions. The purpose was to determine how far an eclectic approach to teaching English writing skill can be of assistance in developing the writing skill and confidence of bilingual speakers of English at tertiary level. This study employed pre/post-test and quasi experimental research design. The sample consisted of 66 students of English at Bachelor’s level and two teachers in a government college of Lahore, Punjab. The students were placed into two groups. The experimental group was taught by a TESL trained teacher and the control group was taught by a regular teacher. Both groups wrote an essay and completed questionnaires at the beginning and end of the study. After nine months of teaching writing skill, the pretest and posttest essay and questionnaire scores of the groups were compared using independent and paired sample T-tests and Hedges’ g to calculate the effect size of the change. Both teachers’ classroom lessons were analyzed through observation. Evidentially, eclectic approach had significant positive effect on students’ overall performance in essay writing and self-perception. Keywords: Eclectic Approach - Product Approach - Process Approach - English Writing Skill, Self-perception, Teaching English as Second Language (TESL)

اتفاق وچ برکت

اتفاق وچ برکت

اک دفعہ دی گل اے کہ اک پنڈ وچ اک بہت غریب آدمی رہندا سی۔ اوس دے تن پتر سن۔ اوہدے پتر بہت فرمانبردار سن۔ اوہناں دا پیو اوہناں نوں جو کجھ آکھدا اوہ کردے سن۔ اک دن اوہناں کول کھاون نوں کجھ وی نئیں سی۔ اوہناں دے والد نے آکھیا۔ چلو جنگل چلدے آں۔ کجھ جنگلی پھل اکٹھے کر دے آں تے کجھ شکار، اوہناں دے والد نے اپنے وڈے منڈے نوں آکھیا کہ توں جنگل وچ جا کے لکڑیاں اکٹھیاں کر کے لیا۔ دوجے منڈے نوں آکھیا کہ توں اگ لے کے آ۔ جد کہ تیجے منڈے نوں پانی لین لئی گھل دتا۔ اوہ تینوں چلے گئے تے آپ اک درخت تھلے آ بیٹھا۔

اوس درخت اتے ہنساں دا اک جوڑا رہندا سی جو ایہہ سارا کجھ ویکھ رہیا سی۔ ہنس اوہدے کولوں پچھداد اے کہ توں ایہناں چیزاں دا کیہ کرنا ایں۔ تیرے کول پکاون لئی کوئی چیز نہیں۔ ایہہ گل سن کے اوہ جواب دیندا اے کہ اج تہانوں پکانا ایں۔ ہنس آکھدا اے کہ ساہنوں نہ پکا۔ تینوں اک خزانے بارے دسدے آں۔ ایہہ گل سن کے اوہ خوش ہو جاندا اے۔ ہنس آکھدا اے کہ ایس درخت دے تھلے اک بہت وڈا خزانہ دفن اے۔ تسی اوہ کڈھ کے اپنی ضرورت پوری کر لو۔ اوہ بندہ اپنے تنے پتراں نال خزانہ کڈھ دا اے تے بہت سارے پیسے، ہیرے، چاندی تے سونا لے کے گھر آندا اے۔

گھر آ کے اوہ اپنے منڈے نوں آکھدا اے کہ گوانڈھیاں کولوں تکڑی منگ کے لیا تاں جے خزانے نوں تولیا جا سکے۔ گوانڈھی بڑے حیران ہوندے نیں۔ اوہ ویکھنا چاہندے نیں کہ تکڑی وچ کیہ تولیا جا رہیا اے؟ اوہ تکڑی دے تھلے گوند لاہ دیندے نیں۔ خزانہ تولدے ہوئے کجھ...

انواع کتب حدیث: لفظی و معنوی موزونیت

The obeisance of Holy Prophet (S. A. W) is the path of forgiveness and essential component of faith. Therefore, the series of preservations of, (RA) Sahabah by continued is (صلى الله عليه وسلم) Prophet Holy of actions and sayings the followers of Ṣaḥābah and Scholars of the Ummah. For worldly and eternal saving, disciplined efforts were carried out in order to preserve this series. This methodology of preservation with extreme care and technique is exemplary. The process for collection of Hadith was initiated and shaped into books and volumes. It is due to the dignified status of Hadith that Allah created such individuals who preserved the sayings of Holy Prophet (ﷺ) with religious fervor, zeal, honesty and great care. In this article meaningful analysis has been given for such important terminologies which convey technically internal characteristics of the series of books and are a great source of literary beauty. In this connection, terminologies and their meanings represent reflection of each other. The basis of these terminologies is not only on estimated ideas but on the literary and intellectual facts. These are not only according to the time and age but also historical and geographical according to the need of hour and circumstances. From Muḥaddithīn’s point of view, these collections have certain benefits and purposes due to which they kept naming them. The brief, simple and understandable words of terminologies are common; however, their purpose is not common. It is distinguished and extra ordinary. The words used in terminologies are not special but purpose is not to express application. Their contextual meaning is taken under consideration instead of the literal one.

Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Proteases from Bacillus Sp.

Present project focuses on the study of protease from the indigenously isolated strain Bacillus. Effects of different substrate levels, ionic concentrations (MgCl2, CaCl2, K2HPO4, (NH4)2SO4, Urea), cane molasses and yeast sludge on the production of proteases by Bacillus subtilis. Various conditions like incubation period, mode of fermentation, pH, temperature etc. were optimized. After optimization of conditions, the proteases were produced on large scale. The proteases thus produced were subjected to the purification through various steps like ammonium sulphate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Kinetic study of proteases was also carried out in order to calculate Km and Vmax of the enzymes. Thermal inactivation was studied in order to calculate the Kd, energy of activation (Ea), Gibbs free energy (∆G), Enthalpy (∆H) and entropy (∆S). Activation or inhibition effect of different metal ions and chelating agents like EDTA, EGTA and PMSF on the protease was examined. Maximum activity of the crude proteases ( 502 U) was obtained at pH 7.5, temperature 45 °C after 48 hours of continuous shaking at 220 rpm using Bacillus subtilis cultured on skim milk (2%) in the optimized medium containing MgCl2 ( 0.01%), (NH4)2SO4 (0.3%) , CaCl2 ( 0.03%), K2HPO4 ( 0.5%), yeast sludge (300 μL) and cane molasses (0.03%). Specific activity of the purified protease was (80 U/mg), yield is 3.18 % and 3 folds increase in activity. Kinetic investigation revealed that that Km and Vmax were 0.2mg/mL and 60 U/mg. Energy of activation Ea , Free energy of activation ∆G , Activaton Enthalpy ∆H, Activation entropy (∆S) were -403 KJ/mol, 91.4 KJ/mol, -403.37 KJ/mol and -407.80 J/mol. Thermo stabilization of proteases is mostly accompanied by a decrease in ∆H and ∆S. A metal ions effect on the activity of the proteases was also studied. PMSF inhibited the enzyme activity, but EDTA and EGTA would not had much pronounced effect on the activity of enzyme. That proved the class of proteases to be the serine due to the inhibition of PMSF. It was concluded that Bacillus subtilis had significant potential for the production of proteases. With respect to the kinetic study of proteases, small vales of Km than the substrate concentration showed large affinity of the enzyme with the substrate and found good source of for the production on proteases on large scale. The nature of the reaction mechanism was found to be first order because [S] was much less than Km. Activation enthalpy had negative values indicates that the enzyme was of endothermic nature. Economically cheaper metals enhanced the enzyme activity. So the Bacillus subtilis was found good catalytic agent for the production of proteases.
