218 Words1 Page

In Document 1, a letter written in 1898, by an educator in India, Syed Ahmad Khan, tells of how Muslims are falling behind in education, the antiquated ideas of their forefathers do not survive their modern day and they must adapt British education. The Muslims were once the frontrunners of the world in medicine, technology, and education. He stated,”If the Muslims do not take to the system of education introduced by the British, they will not only remain a backward community, but will sink lower and lower until there will be no hope of recovering left to them.” The reluctance to adapt to British knowledge will ultimately be the demise of Islam.

  • Honor Code Dbq Essay

    553 Words  | 3 Pages

    Not so long ago, the honor code system was brought up to the U.S. Senate whether if it’s best to have it input schools to lessen cheating behaviors from students. It was not welcomed at first for those that were against the honor codes and as well of the people in the Senate. Even though after all the revisions and such, some voted to agree to have the codes set in place that would be good enough to have around in school; albeit honor codes don’t always work around schools, and cheating or some type of academic dishonesty will always happen— it’s inevitable. It seems by having these honor codes set in place, it would oppose the cheating and consequences against students. As the ones who have voted for the honor code wanted that safe, confidential, and knowing that their hard work and knowledge wasn’t used against them.

    After his experience in Gadsden, he expresses that “moments like this reconnected [him] to the purpose that had prompted [him] to launch this project in the first place” (Ahmed 24). Even though this ethnography is concerned with Muslim communities in America, it is also important to note how optimistic Muslims are shaping the future of many communities in the United States. Ahmed has been incredibly influential as an ethnographer, and his calm love is what he hopes to see when he examines Muslim communities in this country; like many of his faith, he wants his Muslim brothers and sisters to be at peace, no matter their differences. His points about leadership are reflected back onto him; his optimistic leadership is what is needed for Muslim unity on a national

  • Comparing Social Constructivism In Scottish Education And The Broad General Education

    734 Words  | 3 Pages

    There are an enormous number of theories about how people learn, assimilate and understand new information. Two of the main theories that underpin Scottish Education and the Broad General Education are Cognitive and Social Constructivism. Both theories emphasise the importance of group or co-operative learning and a progression beyond that of the archetypal classroom whereby the teacher stands at the front of the class and lectures the students. Whereas Cognitive Constructivism allows for learning to take place between the learner and the environment, Social Constructivism also argues that learning is framed through culture, social interaction and the Zone of Proximal Development whereby learning occurs through interaction with a more knowledgeable

  • Summary Of The Man By Edward Said

    He says that in small part thanks to new electronic media, ranging from film to television, standardization and stereotyping of the orient has intensified the 19th century’s orientalist understanding of “the mysterious Orient.” He gives the primary example of the Middle East and the Western perception of Arabs and Islam. Of three chief reasons he gives for the growth of this problem, at least two can be directly attributed to orientalism. The first is the history of anti-Arab and anti-Islamic prejudices prevalent in the West, the third is the absence of a cultural position to identify Arabs or Islam. By creating an other, through the dichotomy between occident and orient, identification has been made near impossible, and by furthering a imperialist ideology through academic discourse for centuries, prejudices have become

Many kids, like Najmah and her classmates, love going to school, and respect not only the school and the comparably low amount of education - but also respect their teacher. Najmah decided to call “the teacher Bibi Nusrat, a term of respect and affection” (204). Other students in Najmah’s class call Nusrat “‘Khanum Faiz, Mrs. Faiz … or Muallem Saheba, madame teacher’” (204).
