Download or read book Sharing Our Success written by David Bell and published by SAEE. This book was released on 2004 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The disturbing educational success rates for Aboriginal students in comparison with their peers have been documented for many years. Reducing this persistent achievement gap is one of Canada's most pressing educational challenges. Numerous reports commissioned by federal and provincial governments and Aboriginal authorities have offered detailed examinations of the complex social, economic, linguistic, and cultural interrelationships that contextualize the educational environments of Aboriginal students. Many of their families struggle with the legacy of residential schools that ripped families apart and caused immeasurable damage to the social fabric. Schools serving these communities work within a context that may include poverty, learned helplessness, despair, and high levels of abuse, addictions and violence. For some communities, student suicide rates may exceed graduation rates. Yet despite many extraordinary challenges, some schools are producing tangible progress for their Aboriginal students. This report springs from a study of ten such schools in an effort to identify practices that appear to contribute to their success.

Download or read book Adab Al Qadi written by Imam Khassaf and published by . This book was released on 2023-08-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam is a practical religion dealing with the warring traits of human nature and bending them to the Straight Path. It has discarded the law of the jungle, and the motto of might is right. The Islamic concept of justice is positive. It does not stop at the negation of the wrong but goes forward to promote the right so that there remains no incompatibility between the so-called justice and what is really just and equitable. The concept of Islamic justice does not permit prejudice against anyone. The Quranic Injunction is: "...and let not the hatred of any people seduce you that ye deal not justly...." [TMQ Surah Maidah: 8] Under Islam, justice is the sum total of life. To do injustice is sinful. To suffer injustice calls for positive remedial action on the part of Muslims. Such action might mean even the supreme sacrifice of one's life for the sake of justice. This book is an English rendering of a popular Arabic book entitled Adab Al Qadi, Written by the renowned Muslim Jurist Imam Khassaf. In this book, the learned author has favored us with the basic principle of the Islamic judicial system and that of the Judiciary in the light of the Holy Quran and the Sunnah. The Learned Translator of this book Justice Dr.Muneer Ahmad Mughal, was himself a Judge of the Lahore High Court, Lahore. He has perfect hold on the subject and over both the languages.

Download or read book Brian Friel s Post Colonial Drama written by F. C. McGrath and published by . This book was released on 1999-12 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Friel is Ireland's most important living playwright, and this book places him in the new canon of postcolonial writers. Drawing on the theory and techniques of the major postcolonial critics, F. C. McGrath offers fresh interpretations of Friel's texts and of his place in the tradition of linguistic idealism in Irish literature. This idealism has dominated Ireland's still incomplete emergence from its colonial past. It appeals to Irish writers like Friel who, following in a line from Yeats, Synge, and O'Casey, challenge British culture with antirealistic, antimirnetic devices to create alternative worlds, histories, and new identities to escape stereotypes imposed by the colonizers. Friel grew up in Northern Ireland's Catholic minority and now lives in the Irish Republic. McGrath maintains that all Friel's work is marked by colonial and postcolonial structures. Like his predecessor Wilde, Friel mixes lies, facts, memories, and individual perception to create new myths and elevates blarney to a realm of aesthetic and philosophical distinction. An important, accessible, scholarly introduction, this book illustrates how Friel playfully subverts the English language and transcends British influence. Friel's reality is constructed from personal fiction, and it is his liberating response to oppression.
