Personal Reflection:-

The objectives of the LSEC 1103 course is to increase and develop the skills and the students’ abilities in writing and to help them to learn so many new words and teach them how to use them in a sentences .

In this course Mr. Gregory Vrhovnik made as feel so comfortable learning new things without pressure. He motivated and encouraged the students to do their best to get the most benefits out of this course. And made as be confident in using the new vocabulary.

What I really grew from this course that I learnt how to write a proper summery with certain style and in a limited time. This way of teaching made me try to explore new thing and to exceed my boundaries. The online vocabulary quizzes was another good way of learning the vocabulary and how to use it in a sentence.

In my own opinion this course is very helpful for me because it helped me finding my weakness point and target them and developing myself in them. In the other hand this course is very rich in knowledge and has so many resources that we can look into .in addition this course made me very confident in writing summaries and making conversations with people after learning so many new words and knowing where to use them. About anything I am assigned to with ease, all thanks to the experience I had during this language course.

Summary 2:-

The Masdar Project

          Abu Dhabi is planning to build a wind farm near to Saudi Arabia, but the problem is that the Gulf is not a windy area. The turbine makers are designing an advanced blade to generate more energy and they have to be done with their project after nine years because “The Government announced the 7 percent  base by 2020“ ( Dr Olaf Goebel).

 Also, Mubadala is developing already two of its commercial –sized which being built, they are Shams1 and Nour1 the solar projects.

“The plant, which is still at the early stages of assessment, would produce 100mw” (Yee, 2011).

The plant would begin sending power to the grid after two years later. The wind power is more challenging to develop in the GCC than the solar energy, and in the UAE is limited because the nature of the wind. The proposed plant will take at least $200m to be build, according to Masdar’s estimates, and it will require a similar subsidy to move forward.

Desert Survival: finding water

          The Bedouin people who are living in the desert know where the wells are and they know how they can find them. The Bedouin can live in the desert in spite of that it isa hard place to live in but they prepared themselves by the subsistence like the food, water and shelter, also their body can bear the heat. If the Bedouin didn’t find water they would kill their camel to drink the water from its stomach or they can drink its milk or the goats milk to be instead of the water to survive in the desert because of the high temperature.
