week 9

In week 9 we did regular meeting about mixed gender in one class in HCT. All class division, group work, sport activities, religious beliefs, attendance, transportations, entrance and exits, parking and security were discussed.

We started with class division. My opinion was “we can try to put male students to the right side of the class and female students to the left and in the end of the semester we check students results and if it was bad we change the class division in the second semester to females in the back and male students in front of the class”. After that, we talked about sport activities and I said “females should play indoors and males can play outdoors”. Then we turned to group work. I disagree with mixing male and female students together. After that, we discussed parking and security. I was disagree about what Abdulla said, and my opinion was “I disagree with Abdulla I think it’s better if the college separate the parking in two different sides and provide females security for safe”. Then, we talked about transportation, entrance and exits, and I said “college must provide buses for females”. After that, we turned to attendance. I said “college must call to parents if females late for more than 20 minutes”. Finally, we discussed religious beliefs and I said “Islam bands any communication between males and females if there is no reason”.

The meeting end at 11:35 am. We set the next meeting in the next week.

week 8

week 8: in week 8 we didn't do anything because we had English exam.

week 7

Week 7: in week 7 we did the meeting but it was bad, so we asked Mr. Paul for another chance and he accepted our asked.

Our meeting is about mixed gender in one class. Our team includes Maadhad “leader”, Abdulla Faisal, Mohamed Abdelsattar and I am. First our leader took the attendance. Then, he started to explain what we would talk about. After that, we talked about the problems that would make some concerns to students’ families such as males and females work together, sport activities and how the class will divide. Then, we talked about some solutions the college can do it such as putting cameras and security gaurds.

In conclusion, Mr. Paul said that the meeting was very weak and there were many mistakes. Actually, I felt there was no communication between the main points, also I felt it was very boring.

week 6

Week 6: in week 6 Mr. Paul taught us how to show survey results in percentages or graphs. Also he placed students in groups for meeting the next week.

In this week we started doing exercises about survey. First, we took listing exercises about how to spread people in the topics, for example the number of people and gender in news preferences. Then, we took another exercise about how can you transfer the survey in percentage in the report. On Tuesday, Mr. Paul reminded us about the meeting and we must work hard because the time is very quickly.

In summary, I think the exercises about survey are very useful, because in the future I will do presentation and maybe I will do survey.

week 5

This week I talked about my values and motto in presentation.
First I presented myself. After that I started talking about my value which is “I always trying to act with people carefully because they will act same as I acting”. Then, I talked about my motto and what my motto means. My motto is “live your life such as a passenger and catch the chances”. Which mean conditions take you where they are want but you must seize the opportunities. After that I talked about my experience with my motto which is the story in the Yemen. Finally, I ended my presentation, but Mr. Paul had some notes about my presentation, and they were useful for me.

week 4

This semester, I will study how to do presentation. However, during the last two weeks. I studied the basics of how to do a presentation which include choosing a presentation topic, brainstorm, write an outline, making presentation notes and practicing. However, I studied brainstorm more than the other and I wrote and talked about my motto and motto’s experience.

Brainstorm is writing many topics and details as you can think about something, and I had some practice about it. Then, I wrote my motto which is live your life such as a passenger and catch the chances. Which mean conditions take you where they are want but you must seize the opportunities.

That is what I took during the last three weeks and next week I will study presentation notes.

week 2

This week was to know each other. Mr. Paul asked from us to ask your colleague some questions about him in five minutes. Then, talk about him in the class. I interviewed Abdullah Faisal who like Man United club, also he like iPhone and he can live without it. Then, I found out why he liked iPhone. He liked it because he can download many games and programs that let him use this phone like a computer.
