Morality and The Social Problems

The level of conformity to moral laws meant to be morality. It shows how a person is confined to goodness and badness. It usually reflects the distinction between right and wrong. For examples, we pay due respect to our elders, which is natural law and it reflects our morality. It is our duty to follow the certain rules and regulations. The violation not only is the degradation of morality but also the crime committed against the concerned body.
What does it mean by saying ‘degrading morality?’ Actually it refers to the moral characters being not followed or being violated. Then, by whom it is violated and why? The violation is not aggregated among the certain classes of peoples but by most of all classes or almost all groups’ morality seem to be violated. There may be due to no commitment towards the goal or destination or to be extra then others or the greedy character.
Morality in itself is not a matter to give and take. Actually it arises from internal feelings, which may be eternal. If one listens to these internal feelings then he need not to be degrade his moral character. These moral characters guide him to the right path. On the hand, if one doesn’t listen to the internal feelings then he gets diverted from the moral character. This deviation, at once may not lead towards the wrong path but many, becomes a guide lines, which in long term becomes the root cause for wrong behavior.
Today we see our country in difficult situation ever felt or imagined. All the government and non governmental bodies seem corrupted. Beside these there are various social problems. The nation builder youths are too illusions. Some are going to wrong track. They are being drug addicted not only this, the crime is increasing day by day, the rape cases are highlighted by news media each day. Behind these few stated examples, there are a lot.

We can imagine, if people were moral why do they corrupt or why do they need to involve in bribery? Now it becomes the time to provide the moral education to every youth in nation. Moral education will help them to maintain their morality. They will be responsible to their family, society and finally to the nation. So the moral education now becomes one of the most important education to be provided to the young.

Providing Homework to School Children: Good or Bad

Homework helps the children to develop their reading and writing ability and their habits. Teacher provides homework for further practices about the lesson and some works and assignments. So that homework is one of the important parts of teaching learning activities.
Students are assigned some extra tasks related to lesson to be performed at their home. It is usually extension activity of what has been taught or learnt in the classroom. Homework should be appropriate in length and purposeful to achieve the objectives of lesson. Here, the teacher writes school assignments to be completed out of regular hours at the residence of pupil. There are several kinds of homework which are appropriate to the teaching items.

Homework can be in the form of:
1.       Solution of question and problems which depend on the application of the principles learnt in the school.
2.       Written exercises in language function, grammar composition and translation with a view of giving practices done in the class.
3.       Practical work, for example preparation and drawing of organs of speech, chart of articulation, flash cards, model etc.
4.       Advance preparation for the coming lessons.


These days some trainers minimize the value of homework and do not suggest providing homework to the students. They omit this point from the lesson plan too. This view can cause problem in learning. Whether or not homework should be given to the students are controversial points extreme views have been expressed regarding the usefulness of homework.
An average guardian also feels that some works should be given to the students that he should do at home. In any respect we cannot reject the role of homework in the learning. The following purposes can be put forward in the support of this view.

1. To provide students an opportunity to practices what he learnt in the school?
2. To provide opportunities to the students to work independently and thereby to develop reliance initiative in themselves.
3. To develop habits of reading and writing as well as other skills regularly.
4. To serve as a link in the parent and teacher cooperation.
5. To provide opportunities to utilize their leisure time.
6. To enable them to revise their previous lesson and prepare the next one.
7. To provide opportunities to make progress to the poor students.
8. To complete the course in time.
9. To make them obedient, diligent and responsible.
10. To provide learners with opportunities to use target language to achieve communicative purpose.

However, while providing homework the teacher should keep the following points in his/her mind. These points encourage teacher to make good question for homework.

1. The question should be clear in simple language. It should not be ambiguous, lengthy and vague.
2. It should not be set as punishment.
3. It should be relevant to the topic.
4. It should be neither too easy nor too difficult, because they will not take any interest in too easy question and will get discouraged in too difficult question.
5. A question once asked should not be repeated unless the teacher is sure that class has not followed it.
6. Teacher should try to verify the form of his question.
7. Adequate time should be allowed to answer.
