Q1.

1. How peaceful are schools and classrooms in Pakistan? In your experience, have schools become more or less peaceful in recent years? What makes you say this? (10 marks)

Education has been touted as one of the most powerful tools we can implement in our global efforts to promote world peace.

Here’s a look at the top ways schools and classrooms peace.

Education Boosts Confidence & Hope

Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.” Confidence has been defined as the belief that you can succeed at something and a sense of self assuredness. Knowledge is a key confidence builder; it allows one to feel a sense of accomplishment, to be more fearless, and to grow in unexpected ways. This confidence and self assuredness in turn sparks motivation and optimism—or hope as Confucius says— to work towards peace.

2 Education Promotes Independent Thinking Education encourages independent thinking, and it opens doors to new ideas. Independent thinkers tend to try to make sense of the world and draw their own conclusions instead of blindly following the beliefs of others. Independent thinkers may be less likely to join militant groups or be followers, and may instead be leaders towards positive change and action.

3 Education Inspires Problem Solving Skills

Along with math skills that are learned in classrooms, students are often challenged to use logical thinking in order to analyze different pieces of literature, the significance of historical events, and scientific findings. Coupled with independent thinking, these critical thinking skills can lead to innovative solutions and alternatives to violence.

4 Education Builds Communication Skills

In the classroom, students are often asked to speak or read in front of others, offer opinions, and break into small groups to work on projects together. This is how communication skills are honed, and communication is they key to solving conflict. Through quality education, students may be armed with the tools to work within their communities to solve problems, or to do so on a global scale.

5 Education Opens Doors

There’s no doubt that education for peace leads to career enhancement, employment opportunities, and chances of higher earnings. What was once out of reach for girls in the remote villages we work with—say becoming a doctor or a lawyer—are now possibilities. And with these careers in place, many come back to work within their communities and support their families, often promoting peace.

6 Education Reduces Poverty

Imagine always being uncomfortable, malnourished, and fearful, not knowing where your next meal will come from if it comes at all. This fear can often lead to anger, and anger to violence. Education, especially when it’s combined with technical training (read more about CAI’s vocational training programs), has been proven to reduce poverty. This is one driving force behind education for peace. With education comes knowledge, power, safety, security, and peace. One study by UNESCO found that income around the world would be 23 percent higher per capita in countries with education for all. If poverty were reduced, violence would follow suit. 7 Education Increases Political Involvement

Educated citizens are less likely to stand for government corruption and can spur more government accountability. For women, education can even the playing field, and they are more likely to participate in political discussions, town meetings, and decision making, therefore leading to a government that represents its citizens more equally. Because educated women are less likely to support terrorism (see number 8), they can promote alternatives through politics.

b) What have you planned to do if violence erupts in your classroom?

(10 marks) · Things to do Prevent Violence in Class Rooms · Talk to Your Student

Keeping the lines of communication open with your student and teens is an important step to keeping involved in their schoolwork, friends, and activities.

Ask open-ended questions and use phrases such as "tell me more" and "what do you think?" Phrases like these show your student that you are listening and that you want to hear more about their opinions, ideas, and how they view the world.

Set Clear Rules and Limits for Your Student

Student need clearly defined rules and limits set for them so that they know what is expected of them and the consequences for not complying. When setting family rules and limits, be sure Student understand the purpose behind the rules and be consistent in enforcing them.

Discipline is more effective if Student have been involved in establishing the rules and, oftentimes, in deciding the consequences. Remember to be fair and flexible—as your student grow older, they become ready for expanded rights and changes in rules and limits. Show your student through your actions how to adhere to rules and regulations, be responsible, have empathy toward others, control anger, and manage stress.
