The Objectives of this study were (a) to investigate the present use of library by the students of Foundation University College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (b) to analyze the organizational set up of library for the purpose of effective learning (c) to identify the problems faced by the students in the use of library and (d) to give recommendations for effective use of library. The nature of this study was descriptive. The population of this study consisted of all the MA /M.Sc. level students. One hundred and eighty students of various programs were selected randomly as sample. A self developed questionnaire consisting of 10 items was used as instrument for data collection.

The experimental study was designed to investigate the effectiveness ofKumon method in comparison with traditional lecture method in theteaching of Mathematics to grade-5. Kumon is a math and readingenrichment program, which provides practice and instruction to eachindividual. This helps to think and work independently. The hypothesisof this study was that in Mathematics, Grade-5 students have nosignificant difference in their academic achievement treated by Kumonmethod and by traditional lecture method. The objective of the study wasto determine the effectiveness of Kumon method for academicachievement of children in Mathematics. All grade-5 students of Fazaiainter colleges of Rawalpindi and Islamabad was the population. Clustersampling technique was used. One of the three Fazaia colleges (juniorsection) was selected randomly. All grade-5 students of the selectedcluster formed the sample of the study. Data was collected and analyzedby applying t-test and recommendations were given on the basis offindings of the study. This study shows that Kumon method is moreeffective for teaching mathematics to Grade 5 students in comparisonwith traditional lecture method and equally helpful in teachingmathematics effectively to boys and girls.
