    Bulletin of Education and Research December 2017, Vol. 39, No. 3 pp. 57-74 Role of Pakistan Studies in Promoting Political Awareness at Secondary Level in Pakistan Muhammad Muzaffar*, Muhammad Arshad Javaid** and Fariha Sohail*** _______________________________________________________________ Abstract This study was designed to determine the role of Pakistan studies in promoting political awareness among the secondary level students in Pakistan. The study was delimited to three divisions of the Punjab province. A sample of 480 students was taken from the High and Higher Secondary Schools of Faisalabad, Multan and Rawalpindi Divisions. The tools of research adopted in this study were content analysis of the curriculum of Pakistan Studies and a test regarding the basic political knowledge. The collected data were analyzed by using the descriptive as well as inferential statistics. The content analyses showed a little inclusion of the text on the basic political knowledge and the test results confirmed the lower level of political awareness among the students. The integration of the basic political information in the books of Pakistan studies at secondary level was recommended in this study.

  • The Case of the Pakistan Studies Textbook Ann Emerson
    The Making of the (Il)Legitimate Citizen: The case of the Pakistan Studies Textbook Ann Emerson This paper is intended to contribute to the widening literature on the complicated links between education, the state and violence. It also builds on previous analyses of Pakistan studies textbooks, and utilises notions of citizenship to illuminate inequalities and the theoretical lens of cultural violence. To do this, I present an in-depth analysis of the Pakistan Studies Textbook for Secondary Classes used in government schools in Islamabad Capital Territory. This textbook analysis was conducted as part of a case study of one girls’ secondary school in 2014 which linked citizenship education to Galtung’s 1990 violence triangle. I also demonstrate through classroom observations of the case study school the power that the textbook holds as the voice of authority in the classrooms in which it is used. The analysis is situated it in the broader historical context of the process of nation building. I illustrate the specific ways the textbook contributes to the narrative of exclusion of some Pakistanis from equal citizenship which has the potential to normalise violence against excluded groups. Key words: Pakistan Studies; cultural violence; girls’ education; social studies education; citizenship education Introduction The purpose of this study is to contribute to the widening literature that explores the multifaceted entanglement between education and violence by combining a critical discourse analysis of the Islamabad Pakistan Studies for Secondary Schools textbook with classroom observations. Bush & Santerelli identify the two faces of education: one in which education mitigates violence within a state through equal access and positive portrayals and treatment of all citizens (and students) of the state, and the other in which education contributes to identity-based violence through unequal provision and biased curriculum1.

    The Sindh University Journal of Education Vol. 45, Issue No.2, 2016, Pp No. 44-60 Muhammad Zafar Iqbal† Muhammad Nisar Ul Haq* Muhammad Akhalq** PROSPECTS OF TEACHING OF PAKISTAN STUDIES: AIMS, PROBLEMS AND ISSUES Abstract Pakistan studies is taught as compulsory subject at secondary and higher secondary level to disseminate knowledge about history, establishment, geography, resources, climate, industry, foreign policy, administrative structure, human and constitutional developments in Pakistan. This paper examines the problems, issues and challenges related to teaching of Pakistan Studies at secondary and higher secondary level. Paper based on the qualitative data collected through semi-structured interviews from male and female teachers teaching Pak studies as a subject at public and private schools of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Results revealed that students feel Pak Studies as a boring subject. Teachers prefer to teach this course through lecture method instead of applying activity based teaching and discussion method. Students, school administration as well as parents give more preference to science subjects. Any school teacher can teach Pakistan Studies. It does not matter if he/she has knowledge about this course or otherwise. Classes of Pakistan Studies are usually held in last periods. Text books of Pakistan Studies usually do not contain activities. Textbooks contain more facts and less explanations. The subject is exclusively taught through books, teachers just convey the information text books already containing.
