Governor General of Canada Meets with ACCC Director
Ehsan meets the Governor General
A role model for many at the Afghan-Canadian Community Center met with ACCC Director Ehsanullah Ehsan in September, praising the programme for its many successes and saying Afghanistan needed the full participation of its women to succeed.
Michaëlle Jean, Canada’s Governor General, met with Ehsan on September 8th as part of a tour of Afghanistan that included a speech to Canadian troops and a meeting with aid workers at the Kandahar Provincial Reconstruction Team.
She said that no nation can fully develop without the full participation of women in its economy, politics and social life. “The more empowered civil societies are, the more empowered the citizens are,” she added.
Jean said that it pains her when Canadian or Afghan lives are lost, but stressed that the military mission is not a waste, as Afghans deserve the peace and prosperity enjoyed by so many others in the world.
ACCC Director Ehsanullah Ehsan told Jean that he first heard about her when the school was celebrating International Women’s Day. Students, teachers and other women researched successful women, and included Jean in a presentation showcasing female role models.
Ehsan said Jean enjoyed hearing the story, and that he never thought he would have the chance to meet her. “But today is a day of great honor and privilege to meet your Excellency. We are deeply honored and proud to have you among us in Kandahar today. We very warmly welcome you,” he told her.
Ehsan also explained the many successes of the ACCC to the Governor General, as well as the Canadian Ambassador, military chief and other officers at the meeting. Jean said that two years ago she first heard about the plans and challenges of development in Kandahar, and was interested to hear about the achievements and successes that had since been made.

Great Job Sir,
We all know that you are being too helpful for Afghan Women in Kandahar, and want to do more and more, encourage and assist them towards studies. You will always be having the opportunities for meeting great people.

Dear Yelada Jan,
It was indeed a great honor and pride to meet Her Excellency Michaëlle Jean, Canada’s Governor General. She was a wonderful lady. She was very happy to hear that so many women were helped by the Afghan-Canadian Community Center get valuable education and secure highly paid employment. You can set such a tangible example of our efforts in supporting women in Kandahar and I am pleased to have helped and am committed to assist people in need. Before all, let’s thank the great people of Canada for their pivotal support that has enabled us transform lives of many men and women here in Kandahar.

Composition of Human Personality
That Attracts Life Response of Various Intensities
Civilisation can be described as the history of development of skills, capacities, abilities, talents in the physical, vital, mental and spiritual parts on the basis of vital energies released and mental understandings developed. Their effectivity is determined by the spiritual values one possesses. They are in a gradation of successive development, though subconsciously they are simultaneously developing. An exhaustive cataloguing of all these faculties in various parts and various shades will be a complete Thesaurus. Here it will be of interest to note that vocabulary and diction have developed as and when any skill acquired one more distinct shade. This will mean for our project to be complete, no word listed in the dictionary that describes human skill, emotion or any faculty can be omitted. Maybe this is a lifetime work for a devoted scholar who is an original thinker. Once compiled, the work will reveal the integrality of human nature. To extend our quest, there is the social collective, if not in the vegetable and animal kingdoms, which contains an equally exhaustive and corresponding list of skills, etc. To launch on both may be formidable. But, if anyone undertakes it, it will be an original contribution to the human thought that is subconsciously organising itself. Even if the first part of it is completed, it enables the compiler to aim at a few things.
1) The Laws of Life Response will have a fertile field of precise demonstration.
2) If the list of endowments is sufficiently exhaustive, one’s accomplishment – past, present, and future – can be calculated by a formula.
3) The potential of anyone can be known precisely.
4) It will exactly show how, at a given moment, the person has left about 75 to 85% of his possibilities unused.
All these faculties are only secondary circumstances that serve the Prime Mover, the inner individual who makes the choices at every moment. This will be best understood when we take a literary figure and evaluate his performance, incidentally commenting on Life Responses. One’s own life is the very best field, as all inner movements are well known. For the same reason, one is blind about oneself. We can start with others and end with ourselves. This will only provide an outline, not a comprehensive endowment. A comprehensive endowment can emerge when the subtle vision of life opens.
Best wishes,

Democracy
Democracy means a government of the people, by the people, for the people. Democracy is a system of government in which either the actual governing is carried out by the people governed (direct democracy), or the power to do so is granted by them (as in representative democracy). The term is derived from the Greek (dēmokratía), “popular government”, which was coined from (dêmos), “people” and (krátos), meaning “power” in the middle of the fifth-fourth century BC to denote the political systems then existing in some Greek city-states, notably Athens following a popular uprising in 508 BC.
In political theory, democracy describes a small number of related forms of government and also a political philosophy. Even though there is no specific, universally accepted definition of ‘democracy’ there are two principles that any definition of democracy includes, equality and freedom. These principles are reflected by all citizens being equal before the law, and having equal access to power. Additionally, all citizens are able to enjoy legitimized freedoms and liberties, which are usually protected by a constitution.
There are several varieties of democracy, some of which provide better representation and more freedoms for their citizens than others. However, if any democracy is not carefully legislated to avoid an uneven distribution of political power with balances, such as the separation of powers, then a branch of the system of rule could accumulate power and become harmful to the democracy itself.
The “majority rule” is often described as a characteristic feature of democracy, but without responsible government or constitutional protections of individual liberties from democratic power it is possible for dissenting individuals to be oppressed by the “tyranny of the majority”. An essential process in representative democracies is competitive elections that are fair both substantively and procedurally. Furthermore, freedom of political expression, freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential so that citizens are informed and able to vote in their personal interests.
Popular sovereignty is common but not a universal motivating philosophy for establishing a democracy. In some countries, democracy is based on the philosophical principle of equal rights. Many people use the term “democracy” as shorthand for liberal democracy, which may include additional elements such as political pluralism, equality before the law, the right to petition elected officials for redress of grievances, due process, civil liberties, human rights, and elements of civil society outside the government.
In the United States, separation of powers is often cited as a supporting attribute, but in other countries, such as the United Kingdom, the dominant philosophy is parliamentary sovereignty (though in practice judicial independence is generally maintained). In other cases, “democracy” is used to mean direct democracy. Though the term “democracy” is typically used in the context of a political state, the principles are also applicable to private organizations and other groups.
Democracy has its origins in Ancient Greece. However other cultures have significantly contributed to the evolution of democracy such as Ancient Rome, Europe and North and South America. Democracy has been called the “last form of government” and has spread considerably across the globe. The Right to vote has been expanded in many Jurisdictions over time from relatively narrow groups (such as wealthy men of a particular ethnic group), with New Zealand the first nation to grant universal suffrage for all its citizens. Suffrage still remains a controversial issue with regard to disputed territories, areas with significant immigration, and countries that exclude certain demographic groups.
In democratic country votes are casted to elect the leader of the country and then whoever receives more vote as per the constitution of their country that person comes to power. In our country, Afghanistan, Kingdom system was ended after Sardar Mohammad Dawood Khan declared himself as the president of the country. After the Taliban Government International community organized election and for the second time it was conducted by Afghan Independent Election Commission. Now Afghanistan is also trying empowering the roots of democracy in its system of government besides the many challenges. United Kingdom, other European countries and America are trying hard to popularize the democratic system in the countries where it is not practiced.

Which kinds of projects are important for new generation?
In my opinion eductional projects are very important for us to search for every kinds of knowledge in our life specially for afghan generation to take care of their duties and others responsibilities which they have in their life if we look at other countries that they delevoped alot and our purpose is also this to have a good opportunity to get a head in our life and increase our knowledge by getting more education , beside that we must study many more things like new technalogy ,which includes computer , Internet which we can solve our problems by such kinds of studying so we are forced to stand againstour enemy and remove all the distraction of our country if we think that we muslim so at the first step we should try to know our religion that how can we know the right and wrong way , how to contrast good and bad things we are muslim we believe that Allah support us in every kinds of projects if we stand on our intention and believe our Allah ,prophet in the future we will have such kinds of educational institutes like ACCC (Afghan Candian Community Center ) in Kandahar city which many male and female students study here and get the benifits of their sudying which they can work every where and find good jobs for them selves.
At the end of my comment I would like to say that you should study and work for your dear country.

It’s not surprising that Canada is home to some of the best animation schools in the world: the country has a global reputation for excellence in this industry.
“Renowned educational institutions such as the Banff Centre for the Arts, the Emily Carr Institute, the National Animation and Design Centre, Sheridan College and Centennial College, turn out creative talent that is frequently recruited by major studios such as Walt Disney Animation, Fox Animation Studios, Warner Bros., and DreamWorks SKG,” reports an article on the multimedia industry produced by the Government of Canada. “These institutions offer innovative and comprehensive training programs in 2-D and 3-D animation for film and television, video game design and programming.”
Even though many graduates get recruited south of the border, many remain here, contributing to such success stories as Alias/Wavefront, Softimage Inc., SideEffects, Discreet Logic and Toon Boom Technologies. These companies, according to the article, “are among the world’s leading innovators of 2-D and 3-D graphics technology, and are based in Canada. Their technology has been used to create spectacular effects in movies such as Jurassic Park, The Lost World, Titanic, Apollo 13, and The Mask, and has won them Academy Awards and other prestigious accolades. Vancouver’s Vertigo Technology Inc. developed software used extensively by BBC, CNN, MTV, Time Warner and Walt Disney Studios.”
In fact, it has been estimated that well over half of the software used in Hollywood was developed in Canada.
Canada is also known for its content creation. Toronto’s Nelvana produces Franklin the Turtle, Little Bear and Rolie Polie Olie. In Quebec, CINAR turns out Caillou and Zaboomafoo, among other productions. And in Vancouver, Mainframe Entertainment produces ReBoot, Beast Wars and features such as Barbie and the Nutcracker.
Last but certainly not least, Canada is a major player in the game industry, home to industry giant Electronic Arts (EA), based in Burnaby, B.C. According to EA producer Jules Burt, most of his company’s employees are recruited from Canadian animation schools. The reason? The calibre of students coming from these schools is high, says Burt, as is their ability to hit the ground running. “These students are usually already producing ‘real-world’ assets,” says Burt, referring to the high quality reels that graduates have in hand when they begin applying for jobs. “The tools that these schools are using are all very relevant, so [graduates] come prepared to start building games and making money.”
How do you choose the right animation school? The Association of British Columbia Animators and Producers has come up with a checklist to help you. Here are a few questions to ask yourself when you are reviewing potential schools:
1. Does the animation program teach all of the necessary courses that an animator will need to enter the industry in an entry level position? (assistant animator, layout/background artist, storyboard clean-up, etc.)
2. Does the program teach other skills such as life drawing, color comprehension, animation history and film studies?
3. Is sufficient time given to teach the curriculum and is the program fee set at a reasonable cost?
4. Does the school provide all of the necessary equipment needed for the student to learn and work in the industry?
5. Are portfolios one of the admission requirements for prospective students?
6. Who are the course instructors? What are their backgrounds and industry experience? Are they presently working in or have they previously been successful in the industry?
7. Has the curriculum been developed with input from [industry association] members?
8. Does the school have an ongoing advisory board with [industry association] members to help review course materials and changes to the industry?
9. Does the school promote their graduates to the industry through organized interviews, student showcases and/or mail-out materials? Is there a system in place where [industry association] members are given an opportunity to interview graduates?
10. Does the school invite [industry association] members to talk to classes about their companies, the needs of the industry and how to apply for a job?
11. Does the school provide a list of recent graduates, where they are working and/or provide access to working graduates for opinions of the school and program?
12. Does the school help the students to prepare their graduate portfolios/films and help market them to the industry?
13. Does the school offer students career counselling and in-depth background information about the film industry, both local and international?

Anita, Fazli and Ali,
Thank you for remembering Hamayoon and Qaseem for their services at ACCC. Hamayoon Jan is a kind, hardworking and honest man. His contribution to my education campaign are sizable. Similar is the case with Qaseem Jan. I would not have asked the great Canadians for 80 computers if I did not have Qaseem, Esmat and Hasham on my team. They work day and night everyday to maintain all those eighty computers for all of us. Not only that, they also maintain internet, ACCC’s house, generators and transportations. They take close care of administrative affairs and supplies. They really work hard and let’s thank them and the whole team of ACCC once again.
Let’s not forget in thanking the volunteers in Calgary, Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver, New York and Kabul and other parts of the world. They have been very generous in giving valuable education to the students of ACCC.
SAIT Polytechnic in Calgary Canada is such a shining example in giving education scholarships to the students of ACCC and raising standards of education among men and women in Kandahar.
Unless we had the very generous financial support of the government and the people of Canada, it would be hard for us to make the numerous achievements we are making today in giving people modern and job-oriented education in Kandahar.
Ryan’s untiring humanitarian efforts to the success of ACCC in promoting education shall be recorded in the books of history.
I believe we have really formed a cohesive team in and around ACCC with an outstanding performance towards achieving ACCC’ vision (http://theafghanschool.wordpress.com/2006/12/09/ehsan-ullahs-vision-of-the-afghan-canadian-community-center/) and all members of this team deserve bundles of credits and thanks.
All the best.

HI Mr. Ehsan,
Your skills of storming, forming and leading teams to greater performance are your great expertise of making a great team leader of which I am jealous of.
I saw many people started works like you have been doing for years, but they terribly failed. You always move forward. You are a truly remarkable and inspiring leader. People who work with you or study under you really make prestige and popularity.

Ten Tips For Teachers
1. Dress right. Jeans, sneakers, and just-out-of-bed hair may be okay for teachers in the U.S., but in many parts of the world, a neat appearance counts far more than credentials. In Korea dark clothes lend an air of authority. Red is to be avoided at all costs. In Morocco female teachers don’t wear pants, sleeveless blouses, or short skirts.
2. Behave appropriately. When Judith Johnson asked 250 students at the Sichuan Institute of Foreign Languages in China what they liked and disliked about native speaker English teachers, the students’ main gripe was the informality of foreign teachers, who often seem to undermine their own authority by acting in undignified ways. In the U.S. teachers go on a first-name basis with students, sit on their desks, sip coffee, and even bounce off the walls without causing student discomfort or losing prestige. But these behaviors don’t export well.
3. Don’t worry if students seem unresponsive at first. Americans are used to participatory classrooms with plenty of teacher-student dialogue. Elsewhere, students are often trained to be silent, good listeners, and memorizers. In my classes in Poland, the Balkans, and Mongolia, students wore impassive classroom masks the first few weeks of class. It’s disconcerting to stand in front of a sea of blank faces, but expecting it reduces the shock. Introduce new concepts, such as discussion and role-play gradually. You’ll be surprised at how students will come to embrace the change.
4. Choose topics carefully. In the 1980s in totalitarian Yugoslavia I made the mistake of asking students to debate the pros and cons of capital punishment. A painful silence fell over the room. What discussion was possible, someone pointed out to me later, when the government’s position was clear? There are still many countries in the world where people are hesitant to voice opinions because of a fear of reprisal. If you’re conducting a classroom debate, remember that there’s a distaste for Western-style argumentation in Middle-Eastern societies, and in Japan it’s offensive for an individual to urge others to accept his opinion.
Certain topics may be taboo for cultural reasons: Most Americans don’t want to discuss their salaries or religious beliefs; Japanese may be disinclined to talk about their inner feelings; the French think questions about their family life are rude.
5. Don’t ask, “Do you understand?” In China and Japan, students will nod yes, even if they’re totally lost, in an attempt to save face for the teacher. Even in a country as far west as Turkey, yes often means no.
Nor should you expect students to ask questions in class if they don’t understand something. A former student of mine told me: “In China, a student who asks questions is considered a pain in the neck.” Check understanding by asking students to paraphrase or write questions they have in groups.
6. Avoid singling students out. Our society fosters a competitive individualism which is clearly manifested in our classrooms. American students are not shy about displaying their knowledge. In classrooms outside the U.S., however, showing solidarity with classmates and conforming to the status quo is often more important than looking good for the teacher. In Turkey and Montenegro students told me they disliked volunteering answers too often because it made them look like show-offs and attracted the evil eye of envy. This holds true in Japan and China, too, where proverbs express the cultural idea in a nutshell: “The clever hawk hides its claws” and “The nail that stands up must be pounded down.”
If you want to play a game, make the competition among groups rather than among individuals. If you need to discipline a student, do so in private.
7. Be aware of cross-cultural communication styles. French students appreciate wit. Venezuelan students like boisterous rapid-fire exchanges. In Japan, where debate is not as valued as in the U.S., students appreciate long pauses in discussions and silent “think time” after you ask a question. “Hollow drums make the most noise” goes a Japanese proverb, and Japanese students are uncomfortable blurting out the first thing that comes to mind. American teachers, who are uncomfortable with silence, tend to anticipate the student’s words or repeat their original question—both irritating interruptions for the Japanese student.
8. Present a rationale for what you do in class. Your pedagogy is going to be very different from what students are used to. They’ll conform much more eagerly to new classroom content and procedures if they understand the benefits.
9. Expect the best of your students. They’ll be serious about learning English because their economic advancement often depends upon mastering it.
10. Relax and enjoy yourself. Happiness in the classroom is contagious.

Hello to all,
This is a Report about what we learned in Business communication class?
When I start this course I didn’t have any information about that how this class is, is it beneficial or no?
But when some time past I could understand how an interesting and important class, I fell so happy because of that. But if honestly judge about my self at the first it was so difficult and complicated for me but I liked one thing in this course that our book was a Random book and I interest to study this kind of book and I have learn how to make a resume, cover letter, claim letter, business letter, research report, and an oral presentation, and also in modules that were so beneficial lessons such as (Designing Documents, slides and screens), (Communicating across culture), (Adapting your message to your Audience), (Persuasive message), (Informative and Positive message), (Creating goodwill), and more things, that they were important and we can use them in many place I mean for working.
The most important thing that we had learned it was how to communicate with others and have the best communications between people, companies and specially in the society.
I have learn more thing then I expect to learn but till now I don’t thing I have learned every thing completely about business communication because communication is that much extensive if we learn and learn it is going to be wider and wider, but it is so interesting for me I like to have good communication with people, however it was a good situation for having communication between each other.
This book was very beneficial for those people who are working in different companies and organizations because those things that we learn in this class they will help them and those things are often happen in an organization.
.
And I want to give this advice to learn these courses they are so interesting and beneficial.
At the end I want to say thanks to our teacher Mr. Dawood Banury that he carry out and help us to accomplish this course successfully and I want to appreciate his helping and also our online teacher Mr. Tom Kozma
Best Regards,
Najiba
