پروفیسر سید مسعود حسن

پروفیسر سید مسعود حسن
ابھی یہ سطور تمام نہیں ہوئی تھیں کہ پروفیسر سید مسعود حسن کی وفات کی اطلاع ملی، افسوس ہے کہ اردو کے پرانے خدمت گزار اٹھتے جارہے ہیں اور کوئی ان کی جگہ لینے والا نظر نہیں آتا ہے، مسعود صاحب نے درس و تدریس اور تصنیف و تالیف دونوں میدانوں میں بڑا قابل قدر کام کیا ہے، وہ صاحب زبان تھے اور صاحب قلم بھی، وہ بات کرتے تو ادب کے پھول جھڑتے، درس دیتے تو طلبہ ان کے علم سے مرعوب اور حسن بیان سے مسحور ہوجاتے اور قلم ہاتھ میں لیتے، تو تحقیق کے موتیوں سے کاغذ کا دامن بھردیتے وہ سرسری مضمون نویسی کے عادی نہ تھے، لکھنے سے پہلے موضوع کے تمام پہلوؤں پر غور کرتے، سارا مواد جمع کرتے اور پوری چھان بین کے بعد قلم ہاتھ میں لیتے اور پھر تحقیق کا شاہکار پیش کرتے، ممکن ہے ان کے نتائج تحقیق سے کسی کو اختلاف ہو مگر ان کی وسعتِ علم دقتِ نظر اور تلاش و تفکر سے کسی کو انکار نہیں ہوسکتا، وفور علم کے ساتھ وہ بڑے خلیق، وضع دار اور بامروت تھے، ہر مذہب و ملت کے لوگوں سے ان کے تعلقات تھے، یہی وجہ تھی کہ سب ان کے غم میں اشکبار تھے، وہ شیعہ تھے، مگر سنیوں میں بھی اتنے مقبول تھے کہ فرنگی محل کے نامور عالم مولانا ہاشم کی امامت میں سنیوں نے بھی جنازہ کی نماز پڑھی، اﷲ ان کی نیکیوں کو قبول فرمائے اور ان کے عزیزوں اور شاگردوں کو ان کے نقش قدم پر چلنے کی توفیق عطا فرمائے۔ (عبد السلام قدوائی ندوی، دسمبر ۱۹۷۵ء)

An Agglomeration Benefits of Oil and Gas Firms: An Exploratory Study Through Industrial Cluster

The research investigates the agglomeration pattern of seven national, international oil and gas extraction and production companies through an exploration of oil and gas cluster components and subcomponents. For this exploratory study, data is collected through primary sources via in-depth interviews from managers of national and international oil and gas MNCs working in Sindh, Pakistan and through secondary sources of business reports. The content analysis is adopted to analyze the data. Results of this study reveal that there is strong existence of exploration and production companies which results in agglomeration, however, other components of oil and gas cluster like refineries, marketing companies, supporting institutes, media and government poorly exist in Sindh province of Pakistan. Findings also highlight that the Sindh as a resource-rich region is still underdeveloped due to poor management of resources or because of the absence of ideal oil and gas cluster components and coordination among them in the region.

Head Teachers: Beginning to Make a Difference

Professional development of head teachers of schools in Pakistan is a neglected area. The only elaborate programme provided at present is the Advance Diploma In School Management (ADISM) programme offered by the lED. In this dissertation I have tried to explore how this programme is impacting head teachers role perception and helping them to enact their role for school improvement. Throughout the field work I found the heads taking pains to implement some of the ideas learnt during the ADISM programme. In order to understand the changes I was able to put together the various context related issues that confront the heads in their day to day work at the schools. Out of these emerged similarities and differences between the government and the private sectors. What was also fascinating was the different approaches adopted by the heads in prioritizing particular aspects of school improvement. The research showed that the head teachers while perceiving their role as curriculum and instructional leaders face a lot of challenges. The knowledge, the field support guidance and encouragement provided by the faculty of Institute for Educational Development, is helping them to face these challenges. However, some of the challenges need the attention of higher officials. This study recommends well organized professional development programmes for supervisors and education officers who could support the heads in bringing about School Improvement. A substantial part of the dissertation explores my learning as a researcher. I found this experience extremely valuable because during the course of research I went through many unforeseen difficulties and solving them gave me insights about tackling the problems. The dissertation has valuable methodological insights which will be useful for further research and my work with teachers for school improvement.
