Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of the study is to determine the most preferred catalogue format – card catalogue or online public access catalogue (OPAC) for searching library material in Oriental languages, i.e. Urdu, Arabic, Persian, Punjabi, Hindi, Sanskrit, Sindhi and Pashto of the Central Library, University of the Punjab, Lahore. It also explores the users’ searching behaviour for finding the library material in Oriental languages. Design/methodology/approach – A purposive sample of 100 respondents was chosen for this study. The questionnaire contained both close- and open-ended questions. SPSS (version 11.5) was used for quantitative analysis of data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for reaching conclusions. The qualitative data analysis software “X-Sight” was used for analysing the qualitative data. Findings – The study highlights the importance of both types of catalogue. Many of the findings of the study related to the card catalogue and OPAC are surprising when compared to their general perceptions. It is important to note that the users perceived the card catalogue as more effective for searching the library material in Oriental languages. However, they also face many problems while using both types of catalogues. Originality/value – It is the first study of its type in Pakistan that explored the users’ perceptions and behaviour of searching Oriental language material from the card catalogue and OPAC. The findings of the study are valuable for library management, not only at the Central Library of Punjab University but also for other libraries. These findings can help in making both card catalogue and OPAC more effective and user-centred. It will also assist them to improve weaknesses of both types of catalogues. Implications of the study – This study compares the users’ preferences for card catalogue and/or OPAC when searching Oriental language material. There are very few studies available on this subject and most of them are dated.

Full textAbstract:
Visually disabled people confront numerous problems in learning and completing typical activities due to their peculiar physical condition. This study aims to focus on the usefulness of the Social Model of Disability for English Language Teaching to visually impaired students in the institute of Pakistan. The visually students are those who study with other students in the same public sector. We are comparing Punjab University and Lahore College of Women University with the other universities that are not using the social model of disability Government graduate college of science and Samanabad College. The results indicate that the Social Model of Disability can help disabled students and teachers understand each other better. The way language is taught in their institution provides them with the same possibilities to study language as other students; it was demonstrated that students believe that their language teacher is assisting them in overcoming language learning hurdles. So, it has been concluded that Punjab University and Lahore College of Women University are using the social model of disability in their teaching of visually impaired students, while the Government graduate college of science and Samanabad college is not using this social model in their teaching.

But he continued teaching students in college and universities on the requests of the institutions. He also compiled textbooks of various subjects and was associated with management committees of educational institutes. Allama Iqbal closely observed the eastern and western systems of education and criticizes both due to their shortcomings. Based on his experiences and observation he had the ideas about the education of Indians specially Muslims, which are expressed in his various writings. Iqbal’s services and ideas as an educationist have been little discussed. In this article a research and explanatory review of Iqbal’s services and concepts as an educationist have been made.

Full textAbstract:
The Department for the "administration of affairs with Asian nations" at College of Foreign Affairs was established on February 26, 1796 by the imperial decree and the school for Chinese, Manchu, Persian and Turkish languages translators was opened one year later. However, special training of the Russian diplomatic corps, dealing with the relations with Asian nations, was established only in the XIX century. In 1815 Lazarev Institute of Oriental Languages was founded. In 1823 Training Department of Oriental Languages at the Asian Department of the Foreign Ministry of the Russian Empire was established. The tradition was continued by the Soviet Russian Institute of Oriental Studies, which become a leading center for the training of specialists, necessary for most important public institutions and social organizations. Moscow Institute for Oriental Studies inherited traditions and rich library from Lazarev Institute. At the confluence of MGIMO and Moscow Institute of Oriental Studies in 1954 the library holdings were transferred to the MGIMO, they now form the basis of the rare fund of the university research library. Development of Oriental School MGIMO historically was influenced by the specifics of the traditional conglomerate of Oriental Sciences and ever increasing needs in the practical application of knowledge about the East. Of course, in addition to the Lazarev Institute other leading centers of domestic study of the East made a considerable impact on the development of Oriental Studies at MGIMO. St. Petersburg (Leningrad) University and the University of Kazan are the most prominent ones, where the Oriental Studies tradition is rooted in the XIX century. Evacuation of many prominent representatives of the Moscow and Leningrad school of Oriental Studies during the Great Patriotic War to Kazan and Central Asia gave new impetus to oriental studies at universities in these regions.

Full textAbstract:
Judah Benzion Segal (1912–2003), a Fellow of the British Academy, had a long career as a teacher of Semitic languages at the School of Oriental and African Studies, London University. Segal’s principal interest was in Aramaic and Syriac, in addition to Hebrew and the other main Semitic tongues. Before his teaching career, he was employed in the Sudan Civil Service and, during World War II, his service was frequently behind the enemy lines in North Africa. He was educated at Magdalen College School, University of Oxford, and at St Catharine’s College, University of Cambridge. One of Segal’s other abiding interests concerned the Jews of Cochin whose history he published in 1993. But it will probably be in the area of Aramaic studies that Segal will be best remembered in the academic world.

Late in June 1945, Beasley was ordered to join the flagship of the British Pacific Fleet, the HMS King George V, so as to be ‘available for duty in Japan, if needed’. In 1947, he began to teach at the School of Oriental and African Studies, which was the beneficiary of financial help under the recommendations of the Scarbrough Commission. In his great book Japanese Imperialism, 1894–1945 (Oxford, 1987), Beasley re-examined the nature of Japan's imperialism.

Abstract The Great War changed Cambridge from a vibrant university town to a dark, cheerless place, where army divisions camped and drilled before going to fight in the trenches. Their officers spent a last few civilized weeks living in the colleges. Tens of thousands of soldiers returned to Cambridge from the front after being blinded, maimed or gassed, for treatment at the First Eastern General Hospital (a medical campground spread over the gardens and backs behind King’s and Clare Colleges). About sixteen thousand Cambridge undergraduates and recent graduates went to war, of whom a third were either killed or seriously wounded. Teaching did not stop altogether, but the undergraduate numbers for the last three years of the conflict averaged about one fifth of the pre-war level. At Emmanuel College, the photograph of the 1916 freshmen contained just five, solemn, young men – three of oriental appearance. At the end of a war that had lasted a year longer than the usual degree course, the new Master of Trinity College, Sir J.J. Thomson, was concerned that the hiatus might result in a permanent loss of traditional ways and customs. He soon realized that his worries were groundless.

Full textAbstract:
The topicality of the study is determined by the discord between the foreign language teaching standards in Russian universities and undergraduate and graduate students’ requirements oriented towards the modern labour market. Having obtained a specialty, university graduates may work in different fields or change their job profile altogether; the borders of professions and professional standards are undergoing changes as well. The aim of the study is to show the necessity to transform foreign language teaching standards at the university level in accordance with the recent and ongoing changes in the job market. The hypothesis of the study is that foreign language teaching standards in Russia should integrate communicative competence, critical and creative thinking, and learning to learn as necessary components. It is suggested that students of non-philological specialties should be taught two or three foreign languages instead of only advancing their command of English. The hypothesis was confirmed by the polls conducted among undergraduate and graduate students of the College of Asian and African Studies (CAAS, Lomonosov MSU), over 2019-2020. The study resulted in developing a new standard of teaching foreign languages at the CAAS, which includes teaching two European languages alongside an oriental/African one, and creating a new structure of the English language course oriented towards developing soft skills rather than a purely linguistic component. Thus, the study seeks to substantiate the need for the new standard by the requirements of the modern job market and graduates’ demands. Creating the new standard targeting soft skills development and teaching two European languages is a practical result of this work.
