Education is for to polished man, his life, his country through the light of knowledge. We can make our students conscious from the begging of the student life and I think it will work a lot.
Thanks. You see if we start from the begging of the life and to inspire the students to hate for terrorism, surely it will work and many few of them will be diverted towards terrorism. For this, country people, society, and finally the govt should work.
Yes but we may need to be extremely careful on the approach/method to be adopted as to avoid being the one giving the pre-knowledge of terrorism to the pupil at that sensitive stage. A well-developed curriculum on society, relationship among different tribes/ethnics/religion/ may be a starting point in our campaign.
Yes, if we let the students to learn its a bad activity then they will keep in their mind that its a hatred job . Otherwise , in the long run, they are diverted to the religious and social fundamentalist to commit the crime where there is nothing to do.
Terrorism has it roots in extremism which is invariably germinated and thrived by educational systems that have an ideological basis. Consequently, as you have rightly observed , the general educational systems in all communities should familiarize the young with devastating impacts of terrorism by emphasizing the importance of diversity and freedom of individuals in practicing whatever faith they want to practice. Astounding mass executions in Saudi Arabia and terror attacks in Sri Lanka are typical examples showing why such an educational investment is an absolute necessity. As our holy book Quran states, "There should be no coercion in choosing a faith". Terrorism and extremism have no place in today's civilized societies.
yes Dr. Zafar, I do agree. Thank you very much for your concern about anti-terrorism issues. Its high time to take such steps in early schooling stage, not only in school but also in Madrasa.Even I'm optimistic person but I can say, near future the situation will not change.
I am really happy getting your illustrious answer here. Its impressive and outstanding which has added value in this research with other scientists are here . Lots of beheading are going on in every week for the heinous activities of the citizen and migrated workers but the civic nuisances have there not been stopped yet.I also in the same consent with you if the education is expanded especially in the Saudi Arabia, situation supposed to different today.
Thank you dear sir for your inspiring . Yes, like others I do think, the education system of the country have to be modernized and modified for the necessity good civilization , good society in any country. Excepting main stream , we have many learning avenues in the education which should there be stopped immediately. It a BIG CONCERN for the next step of Bangladesh.
An excellent proposal, we need to spread the culture of love and peace and renounce violence among our children to create a generation that loves each other in peace.
Exactly , I do believe so in fact . And this is the main issue of this question. Family education, education in the Academia is very essential as a whole in the world.
Early stage is very important for human life .If we ensure a well educated , motivated students,the society will be definitely with the healthy environment.
Just to remind - we are already teaching children to love, to be peaceful, we are teaching them against violence etc. That's the part of curricula from the earliest elementary school classes, even for preschool age. And many countries are doing similar. And it's obviously - something is missing in this strange world.
Yes, I was hoping for an answer along the lines of what Dijana wrote. It's so obvious that something is missing, because all of the other suggestions have always been tried. Perhaps the problem is that terrorism is not taught as being terrorism. It is taught as being righteous, ridding the world of "evil," ridding the world of whatever different individuals might think is undesirable in the world.
Often, but not always, we are dealing with religious beliefs. How do we teach people, at a young age, not to be so darned stubborn and certain, that what they are told to think is completely correct? That's the way to solve the problem, in my view. Add some doubt to what you think is certain. Re-evaluate, re-analyze, your beliefs, on a regular basis. Don't just accept what someone says.
Dear Professor you made us enlighten by your very illustrating answer herewith sincere effort to support my research . Terrorism may come by some legal processes involved in daily life, education and even in the religious processes. Sometimes for the miscommunication and misunderstanding among the individuals and groups .
In each country anti-terrorism campaign should be included in early stage of the education system-do you agree? What are your suggestions?
We can do that in early stage of our education system. Besides, we need to teach our children about social responsibility, think win-win and uphold peace in our relationships with others. Any disagreement / dispute need to be addressed / resolved via dialog / debate rather than using detrimental actions.
