Policy Consideration

Islamiat

●       Different Acts of Compulsory Teaching of Holy Quran are there in Federal and provinces. This requires more deliberation to adopt a common policy keeping in mind both the legal requirements as well as better understanding of the students.

●       A proper mechanism of keeping the Paras (Quran Mushaf) in school instead of keeping the same in the bags as the latter may cause potential blasphemy. 

●       Scheme of Studies needs to be reconsidered in presence of a comprehensive curriculum.

●       Availability of resource materials in the school/college library will help students consult a variety of sources in addition to their textbooks.

●       Refresher courses for present teachers to help them understand the philosophy behind a common curriculum of Islamiat acceptable for all schools of thought.

●       Revamping both formative as well as summative assessment patterns to encourage critical thinking as opposed to rote memorization.

●       A shift of focus from a mere reading of the text to inquiry and project-based learning. For this purpose, teachers’ development curricula are to be redesigned as per the needs of 21st-century students.   

●       Availability and use of AV aids for the teaching of Islamiat will arouse interest for the subject among students.
