Meeting - Gender Integration

Aims of meeting

One week ago, we had the first meeting chaired by Mohammed Saleh. There were 4 partners in the group; Mohammed Saleh was chairman, Ahmed Albraiky was my secretary, Abdullah Masoud and Saoud Abdulla were participants. Gender integration was our subject. The chairman asked many questions about it. The goals of gender integration are improving students’ skills in the class. In the end, we finished the meeting with a successful result.

• Date: 23/2/2010
• Time: 12:45 pm
• Place: F52 (CL3 )

Group members: Mohammed Saleh , Ahmed Albraiky , Abdullah Masoud , Saoud Abdulla

• Agenda:

2- Gender integration problems.
3- Trying to solve the problems.
4- Giving some suggestions.

A- Mohammed opened the meeting at 12:45 pm
B- Mohammed said to all that some scientists made research about gender integration and the result was good.
C- Abdulla give a good suggestion that anybody who of good marks in the class, we take this student to a mixed class
D- Ahmed gave some suggestions to make safe mixed class.

I agreed with this idea to mix the classes.

Mohammed asked if there was any other business. Then he closed the meeting at 1:00 p.m.


Reflection :

The meeting was conducted correctly and the results have been dramatic.
What went well ?

Mohammed led the meeting very well. Souad and Abdulla disagreed with this idea and the reason was about the role of Islam. In the other hand, Mohammed and Ahmed agreed with this idea because we can get good results.

Now, I can lead the meeting in the right way. Also, I improved my speaking skills and if I follow these steps again, I will be better.

What did I learn?

I learnt how to solve any problems with people by giving suggestions and choosing the best solutions.

Flow

There are some things in our life we need so much like water, food and air. But the most important is the water because all things in our life contact from it. Because of that, all humans use it for agriculture, drinking, hygiene, extinguishing fires, providing drinking water and waste water services, industrial applications power generation and food processing so all things in the earth depend on the water and most of the earth is covered by water. http://chalk.richmond.edu/education/projects/webunits/water/waterimpt.html . In this report I’m going to write about the problem of Water pollution and the increasing needs of people for clean water.

There are many sources for water such as lakes, rivers, oceans and groundwater but if all sources are dirty, the humans will find problems and the need of water will increasing. In our lives, many countries have lack of water because some of them do not have source for water and they have water pollution. Water pollution is a major problem in the world. It causes deaths and diseases and it accounts for the deaths of more than 14,000 people daily. An estimated 700 million Indians have no access to a proper toilet, and 1,000 Indian children die of diarrhoeal sickness every day. Some 90% of China's cities suffer from some degree of water pollution and nearly 500 million people lack access to safe drinking water. In addition to the acute problems of water pollution in developing countries, industrialized countries continue to struggle with pollution problems as well. In the most recent national report on water quality in the United States, 45 percent of assessed stream miles, 47 percent of assessed lake acres and 32 percent of assessed bay and estuarine square miles were classified as polluted. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_pollution

This are some water contaminants like industrial waste and sewage. The industrial waste includes all materials resulting from the chemical industry. It’s so big problem in the water world and the other problem it’s about Sewage some of states are discharge the sewage in to water bodies like rivers, seas and lakes. From that behavior the water will be contaminants. Also that behavior it make so many diseases for the people in the world not only the people also for the fish in the water, also lead to reducing the oxygen in water and miss the fish and other aquatic. Dangerous diseases affecting humans by untreated sewage is :

  • Brainerd ~ chronic diarrhea
  • Dysentery ~ bloody diarrhea
  • Cholera ~ dehydrating diarrhea
  • Typhoid fever ~ prolonged abdominal cramps

The most common illness caused by swimming in contaminated water is gastroenteritis. Other types of contamination cause infections to develop on your skin, in an open wound and in your eyes, ears, nose and throat. Children and elderly are most likely to develop these water contamination related illnesses. http://www.healthblurbs.com/contaminated-water-disease-waterborne-diseases-contamination-of-water-diseases-causing-illnesses/

Generally, we must be careful about these diseases and we have to save water for a good future for us and for the next generation
