Association for Academic Quality Peshawr Seminar held on curriculum development
PESHAWAR: Participants at a daylong seminar Saturday underlined the need for making the education system vision-driven.
The Association for Academic Quality (Afaq) organised the seminar to highlight the role of curriculum development and teachers� training.
Teachers, scholars and researchers attended the seminar where former vice-chancellor of the University of Peshawar, Dr Abdul Matin, was the chief guest.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr Matin discussed the role of education in meeting the challenges faced by the country in the modern world. At the same time, he added, the resurgence or revival in the Islamic world was also the result of the same vision. �The adventurism of America and the Westernisation had forced the Islamic world to think of their security that led it to the revival of the Ummah,� he maintained.
Matin said the effective education was based on the ideology. �There is no room for negotiations where the ideology comes,� he said. The former VC said the quality of resistance must also be produced through the education system. �You cannot wipe out corruption when this quality of resistance is removed from the people,� he added.
