Teaching is a complex phenomenon as teachers perform a wide range of activities for variety of purposes. Understanding quality of mathematics teaching is even more complex as different people have different perceptions of 'effective' mathematics teaching. Educators from international context describe effective mathematics teaching a way teachers presents the subject matter to. the learners so it arouses their interest towards learning. Effective mathematics teaching for some is to provide caring environment where students learn mathematics independently and collaboratively. In other contexts, effective teaching is considered as engagement of students in worthwhile tasks to helps them create connections between different mathematical concepts and also between mathematics and everyday experiences. The literature review suggests that effective teaching is not a universal trait as its notion is different in different contexts. Also, it is very important to study notion of effective teaching among different stake holders within a context to make sense of teachers' and students' action in the class. The purpose of this study was to explore the notions of students, teachers and head teachers about effective mathematics teaching in union council Chatorkhand Gilgit-Baltistan. I selected three high schools two from government education department and one AKES, P school for this study. Six mathematics teachers, three head teachers and thirty six students participated in this study. I used semi structured interview and classroom observations to collect the data. The findings from the verbal data from students, teachers and head teachers reveal that these stakeholders to a great extent have similar notions about effective mathematics teaching. They all consider that collaborative interactive teaching is better for students' learning as compared to individualistic and teacher centered teaching. However, the classroom practice in that context does not fit with their understanding of best teaching. It seems that they do not teach in a manner which they consider best, though they still consider it their best teaching.

مار نہیں پیار

مارنہیں پیار
زندگی میں انسان کو کئی حوالوں سے زندگی کا احساس دِلانا ہوتا ہے اور ثابت کرتا ہے کہ وہ شاہراہ حیات پر رواں دواں ہے خواہ وہ راستے خار دار جھاڑیوں سے پر ہو یا اس پر از ہارواثمار سے لدے درخت کی ٹہنیاں سر جھکائے محوِ حمدوثناء ہوں۔ زندگی مسائل سے بھری ہوئی ہو یا اس کی رنگینیاں ، رعنائیاں اظہر من الشمس ہوں۔ انسان کو کسی نہ کسی صورت میں ان سے واسطہ رہتا ہے۔ انسان کبھی خوش وخرم ہوتا ہے اورکبھی ناراضگی کے باعث اس کی پیشانی پرشکن واضح ہوتی ہے۔
زندگی میں انسان سے کوئی اچھاعمل سرزد ہوتا ہے تو اسے انعام و کرام سے نوازا جا تا ہے اور اگر اس سے کوئی خطا سرزد ہوتی ہے تو اس کو اس کی سزا بھگتنا پڑتی ہے، اچھے کام کی انجام دہی پراچھے صلے کا سزاوار ٹھہرتا ہے اور سہواً یا عمداً کوئی غلطی ہو جائے تو وہ سزا کا مستحق ٹھہرتاہے۔ دین اسلام میں بھی جزاء وسزاء کا تصور موجود ہے، عابد اور صالح مسلمان کے لیے وعدہ ٔحورو قصورموجود ہے۔ خاطی اور گنہگار کے لیے وعید جہنم کا تصور موجود ہے۔ اگر یہ تصور ختم ہو جائے تو حصول راحت کے لیے کی جانے والی مساعی جمیلہ کی چمک ماند پڑ جائے گی اور سزا کی طرف مائل ہونے والی حرکتیں اور اعمال سیٔہ کی کثرت ہو جائے گی’ ’مار‘‘ کا تصور موجود ہے اور ’’ پیار ‘‘ کا تصور بدرجہ اتم موجود ہے۔
یہ ہماری عظمت ہوگی ’’مارنہیں پیار‘‘ کو اپنے معاملات میں جب داخل کریں گے، اور محبت و شفقت کا وتیرہ اپنائیں گے تو اس خصلت حمیدہ کی آفاقیت سے کسی طور بھی صرف نظر نہیں کر سکتے۔ یہ اسلوب ایک طالب علم کے لیے فرحت بخش ثابت ہوگا۔ اگر چہ مار کے تصور سے تاریخ...

His life has been described in every aspect with detail. All the dates and years have been captivated with certificates and references. Because 10 Muneer Niazi is free from the affairs of daily life. He did not care and depressed any one. Specially he does not have the dates and years in his mind. Even now he did not have the correct information about his own life. His correct date of birth has been derived from the admission and withdrawl reqister of Punjab University national identity card, by "Writers Guild of Pakistan Membership Register." Which seemed suitable. In the second part the creations of Muneer Niazi is discussed. The basic reference of Muneer Niazi is as a poet.

Chapter five "Muneer Niazi, Jaun Elia and Sermad Sehbai Kay Zehni aur Takhliqui Tanwoat- Aik Mohakma". In this chapter the detail discuss about common topics of these three personalities. By which this point is cleared that as a poet the circle of Sermad Sehbai and Muneer Niazi is less than Jaun Elia therefore the dramatic expression of his prose, contesting shade provides deep effect to his inner point of view. In this way art, human screening, dance, music and painting due to profound interest and his dramatic analysis specially his film "Mah-e-Meer" converts his uncofortness into comfortness. The basic reference of Muneer Niazi, Jaun Elia and Sermad Sehbai is of a poet. But why did they come to prose writing. Had they not been expressing their message completely in the poetry? Are they thought that the poetry is not the complete way of expression, His place and fame has been expressed in such discussions of prose writings by Muneer Niazi, Jaun Elia and Sermad Sehbai.
