In our country it remains a hot topic to discus in what language to educate and what languages to educate etc. And I am also one of them who spent some time on thinking about this topic. After researching what is happening around the world on this topic I once upon a time made a new idea for giving language education in our country Pakistan.
|
Idea was simple and easy to understand and implement. According to that idea first we will divide language subjects into 3 categories like
|
.
|
1) International language
|
In this category English will be compulsory subject and any number of other language not spoken in our country optional subject.
|
.
|
2) National language
|
In this category Urdu will be compulsory subject and any number of other language spoken in our country optional subject.
|
.
|
3) Mother tongue
|
In this category student's Mother tongue will be compulsory subject and any number of other mother tongue of our country optional subject.
|
.
|
And it will be made sure that language subjects of all 3 categories taken by student are different.
|
.
|
This way we will be able to teach our students many international and national languages as well as their own mother tongue.
|
.
|
Mother tongue will be taught on the patten of 'teach your self' books. So if in a class of say 50 students have 50 different mother tongues they all will be able to learn their own mother tongue.
|
.
|
This way students will be able to learn languages of their own choice and society will get a lot of students knowing a lot of languages. So every one will benefit from this system of language learning. |
.
|
As one can see this scheme is not only easy and simple but also unique because it also teaches every student it's own 'mother tongue'.
|
.
|
So as you can see this scheme of language education is very futuristic and useful. And any country including ours can implement it very easily.

Afterthoughts [2016Dec20Tue] |

|
After writing above text and reading it again and again for removing typing mistakes and improving text another idea visited my mind and that is that same way every individual student can be taught his/her very own Religion, History and Culture as well. And I think this a great idea to implement any where in our world including our country.
