The document discusses the impact of illiteracy in Pakistan, including its causes, effects, and solutions. It states that the main causes of illiteracy in Pakistan are illiteracy among parents, lack of education facilities, poverty, and social barriers that prevent girls from attending school. The effects of illiteracy include hindering economic development, increasing poverty, child marriage, unemployment, and social issues. Solutions proposed include increasing access to free or low-cost education, raising awareness of literacy's importance, and placing special emphasis on female education.
Illiteracy is a big problem because the illiterate people are unable to understand the new techniques of social life. They do not understand the new policies. Every individual has right to get education in better institutions. Illiteracy minimizes the social relations in the society which leads to less development of resources. Illiterate person is unable to read books, magazine, articles, and other reading materials.
The society does not develop, if there is a number of a person un-educated. Illiteracy is a barrier in the social progress among people for betterment of the society.

Introduction
Illiteracy is the inability to read and write at an adequate level of proficiency that is critical for communication. Illiterate adults are unable to use printed and written information to function in the society so as to achieve one’s goals and also to develop one’s potential.
According to an international nonprofit ProLiteracy in 2003, there are 36 million adults in the United States alone. This potential includes a broad range of information-processing skills that one can use daily in school and at the community as a whole. Adult illiteracy has become a societal problem because illiterate people can never fully utilize writing and reading skills to make use of their fully potential in the world. The thesis statement of adult illiteracy involves reasons why it identified as a societal problem; the solutions proposed to solve this problem and the statistical information of adult literacy as the global societal problem.
Different types of society exist. These types of illiteracy are technological illiteracy, mathematical illiteracy, visual illiteracy, school illiteracy, community illiteracy and personal illiteracy. All these types of illiteracy are caused by various reasons. These reasons are summarized in the following discussion.
Causes of Adult Illiteracy
People are usually mistaken about illiteracy. School illiteracy is overvalued to the extent that many adults have started to believe the act of reading and writing are the only important things in school. It is this type of reasoning that make many adults less interested in wanting to gain more knowledge and see things beyond the negative images. This has become one of the main reasons why adult illiteracy has increased in the world over the last few years.
Another reason for adult illiteracy is the misuse of groups. Some people tend to agree with the argument that can make one believe that he or she is weak as a reader and he or she won’t be able to achieve literacy even after finishing school. This type of thinking lowers someone’s self-esteem and self-confidence meaning that the person will not bother to seek literacy help. People’s reading attitude are influential in literacy behaviors. According to McKenna in 2001, reading attitudes are influenced by factors such as a person’s social experiences with reading, one’s personal experiences, the cultural norms about reading, cultural norms and the learner’s preferences about reading. Attitude is associated with unwillingness to read. Every learning experience that a child has in school will at some point determine how that child will determine to learn. The learners who have had negative experiences in school will come to view school and learning in total as a bad experience that. This disengagement spreads over to adults. An adult learner who has negative perceptions about school would not want to be associated with it. These learners never get interested in educational process because they don’t see it as valuabl.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

case the illiteracy rate increase
day by day in the world.
4. Points of discussion
Introduction to illiteracy
Who is literate?
Literacy rate
Causes of illiteracy
Consequences of illiteracy
Recommendations
Summary
Conclusion
5. Introduction
Illiteracy:
Illiteracy is a state whereby one is unable to read and write.
In its simplest form, it can be defined as lack of any or basic
education.
6. Who is literate?
A literate person as ‘one who with understanding can both read
and write a short simple statement on his or her everyday life’.
It goes on to state: ‘Yet, there are many people who are literate in
this restricted sense, but who none the less suffer serious
problems with more complex reading and writing tasks. These are
the functionally illiterate’.
7. Literacy Rate:
The country’s literacy rate declined from 60 percent to 58
percent, revealed the Economic Survey of Pakistan (2016-2017).
NER indicates that amongst the provinces, only Sindh remained
stable with 48 percent while Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
declined from 64 percent to 59 percent and 54 percent to 53
percent.
8. Causes of illiteracy:
Illiteracy among parents
Unemployment of the educated
Lack of awareness
Social barriers
Lack of affordable education facilities
Poverty
Harder for girls to go to school
Girls mostly drop out of school to help with work
Agrarian Society
9. Causes of illiteracy:
There are so many reasons why an individual can be
illiterate. These are some of the causes of the inability to read or
write:
Illiteracy among parents:
Many illiterate parents do not put much emphasis on the
importance of education. Several of those born to parents who can
neither read nor write end up being illiterate.
Unemployment of the educated:
Without the promise of employment, education is not a
necessity to them. In a country where many of the educated are
unemployed, there may not be enough motivation for the illiterate
to go to school.
10. Cont.…
Lack of awareness:
In places where several members of the local population do
not understand why it is important for them to go to school, the
level of illiteracy may be high.
Social barriers:
Many social barriers such as restrictions on girls’ education
in some societies lead to illiteracy among the affected segment of
the population. Education of the girl child has been an issue in some
parts of the world leading to the formation of different
organizations focused on championing the education of women.
11. Cont.…
Lack of affordable education facilities:
Those who live in very remote areas with few or no
education facilities may remain illiterate. The nearest school might
be found several miles away.
Poverty:
Poor parents with low incomes
find it difficult to pay school fees.
They are forced to choose between
providing basic needs such as food,
shelter and clothing and taking their
children to school.
12. Cont.…
Girls mostly drop out of school to help
with work:
Major factors that hinder
enrolment rates of girls
include poverty, cultural
constraints, illiteracy of parents
and parental concerns about
safety and mobility of their
daughters.
13. Cont.…
Agrarian Society:
Most of the people (about 68%) live in rural areas of
Pakistan and majority of them are attached with different fields of
agriculture. Some are cultivators and some are helpers to the
cultivators.
14. Consequences of illiteracy:
Hinders economic and social progress
Poverty
Child marriage
Difficult life
Social crimes
Underpayment, Underemployment, Unemployment
Disability
Prevalence
War on Terror
Intergenerational Illiteracy
15. Consequences of illiteracy:
Hinders economic and social progress:
Illiteracy greatly inhibits the economic and social progress of
an individual as well as that of the country. Education gives one the
power to seek opportunities and pursue them.
Poverty:
Illiteracy leads to poverty.
Education equips one with the
right skills and expertise for
gainful employment. If you
do not even have enough to eat,
how can you dream of going
to a school?
16. Cont.…
Child marriage:
This is also a problem that may come about due to illiteracy.
Parents may fail to recognize the benefits of taking children to
school to learn how to read and write.
Difficult life:
An illiterate person can lead a difficult life in so many ways.
The inability to find gainful employment can subject one to a life of
poverty with poor living conditions. There can be a lack of basic
necessities such as good shelter, clothing and decent meals.
17. Cont.…
Social crimes:
Through education, a person can cultivate some civic sense
and develop behavior patterns that are socially acceptable. Illiterate
people may engage in unlawful acts in the society due to lack of
employment or simply as a result of being uncultured.
19. Cont.…
Disability:
The most unfortunate are those whose physical or mental
conditions do not allow them to educate themselves easily. Disabled
children find it exceedingly difficult to read, write, absorb and
remember information.
20. Cont.…
Prevalence:
The UK government's Department for Education reported in
2006 that 47% of school children left school at age 16 without
having achieved a basic level in functional mathematics, and 42%
fail to achieve a basic level of functional English. Every year,
100,000 pupils leave school
functionally illiterate in the UK.
21. Cont.…
War on Terror:
Pakistan’s engagement in war against terrorism also affected
the promotion of literacy campaign. The militants targeted schools
and students; several educational institutions were blown up,
teachers and students were killed in Balochistan, KPK and FATA.
22. Cont.…
Intergenerational Illiteracy:
The issue of illiteracy can cut across generations within a
family. It can become cyclic in such a way that even the third or
fourth generation family members suffer the same fate.
The most unfortunate are those whose physical or mental
conditions do not allow them to educate themselves easily. Disabled
children find it exceedingly difficult to read, write, absorb and
remember information.
23. Recommendations
Recommendations
Free education
Lower education cost
Awareness
Grants
Increase the Importance of
Education
Increase in number of primary
Compulsory education
Special emphasis on female
education
Effective promotion of
distance education
24. Summary:
The research is based upon finding the cause of low literacy
rate of Pakistan. Literacy is very effective and important parameter
of measuring social development of society.
Literacy is also the ground reason for many other social
problems such as crime rate, political unawareness and terrorism
which off course turned into a cancer the research survey was based
upon the literature review result.
A number of previous studies and analysis mostly are
converging on a number of definitions for low literacy rate. They
include
Poverty
Lack of awareness
Gender discrimination
Government mismanagement
25. Conclusion
Literacy is very effective and important
parameter of measuring social development of society.
Literacy is also the ground reason for many other
social problems such as crime rate, political
unawareness and terrorism which off course turned
