...going to be talking about are: the internet, a text book, and NHS facts. I found all of these resources useful in different ways, and also reliable in different ways. I chose these particular resources because I have many opinions about them, some good, some bad. The mix of opinions is good because I can discuss both sides, and have a good balance between the opinions. The internet The source that I will be talking about first is the internet. The use of the internet helped me a lot with the assignment, this is because I was easily able to just search up what I needed to and then was able to put it into my own words and add it into my piece of work. I think that it also made my work better because I knew that the websites I was using were reliable and all the information in them was correct. And I think that this made my work good because I knew the information was correct and knew that I didn’t put anything in that was incorrect. Another way that it helped to support my work was that it was quick and easy, it gave me the answers straight away, and I didn’t have to take ages looking for the topic that I needed to know about in a text book. I used bitesize a lot, this is because the information that was on the website was easy to understand and set out in a simple form.

...this questionnaire are easy to understand and clearly stated. Its first several questions have fulfilled the criteria of what a first question in a questionnaire should look like. The questions are easy for respondents to understand and also engage the attention and interest of the respondent because it is related to everyday situation of a person. However, the questions’ has the same answer options for all questions which may reduce the interest of the respondents because there is no variation. Also, the answer options should provide other(s) option for the respondent to answer because the options given may not match with all respondents.

...vast majority of American meals are derived from. Pollan's The Omnivore’s Dilemma Part 1 is effectively written because it's informative, easy to follow and to understand, and is written from the objective point of view rather than a subjective. The first three chapters of The Omnivore’s Dilemma are very informative. Right from the start Pollan is educating the reader about supermarkets set ups and the compelling nature of the consumer. He continues his writing as an informative journey, with the reader being his pupil as he discovers the many different aspects of corn; history behind it, where it is found, and how American’s utilize it daily. As part of his informative journey, he travels to Iowa where he gains more insight and information from a local farmer. There he dives into the whole issue between agriculture and government, informing the reader of the variable ways that government has made a huge impact upon agriculture and corn itself. Every page of this section of the book is filled with history, facts, and detailed research that keeps the reader engaged. The down side to all this information is the reader can find themselves on information overload. This can lead to a reader putting the book down and not finishing it. Although Pollan’s writing style can be overwhelmingly informative, it is very easy to follow and understand....

...beings and without being able to hear, life is not simple, nor it is easy. Individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing are unfortunate to have quality communication with others. There is a barrier-dividing people who are deaf from hearing people. Just like hearing people, the deaf like to talk with others; Conversations can be difficult for them, especially if they are trying to communicate with individuals who are not familiar with the Deaf community or sigh language. Lack of communication inhibits the interaction between people, so in order to overcome this barrier, people who are deaf key in on socialization. Experiencing what deaf people have to go through every single day in their lives was not easy to practice. Wearing earplugs for eight hours was a new experience that I learned a lot from. Having the ear plug in my ear canal created a conductive hearing loss and it could be either congenital or acquired causes. These causes can damage the shape of the pinna. The way I started interacting with people around me was not the same, as well the way they acted towards me. A lot of them were surprised that I was using my arms to point at things, and also wondering why I am not responding when they are saying, “ How am I doing today”. Nodding my head was not the answer they were expecting form me. Communicating with others was not easy at all, and it took a lot of hard work to tell people who are not familiar...

...contain quality information. The guide I chose to examine is the user manual for the Samsung Galaxy S4 mobile phone. This user manual is very good and meets most, if not all, of the criteria to be an exceptional example of what a good user manual should be. The manual is structured in a very reasonable way. It starts off as if you had just purchased the phone and are setting it up for the first time. What the buttons do, how to install new items like a sim card, memory or battery. It then transitions into how to care for the phone, charge it, turn it on and off etc. It contains a comprehensive list of symbols that may appear on your phone and what they mean. Then it goes into how to use the more advanced features of the phone. So the manuals structure is very easy to use and follows a logical progression. The manual provides excellent use of visual aids. In the beginning diagram of the phone it is shows a front and back visual of the phone with all the parts labeled in an easy to read and easy to understand way. The manual has several other pictures and diagrams that concisely and effectively convey their meaning without excessive use of words. The manual is also very easy to navigate. The index is all linked to...

...vacation they have to adapt to the new environment they will be going to. If you do not have any support for your co-workers, adapting to the new environment is not going to be easy and trying to fit in is going to be very difficult. (Novinger, 2001) One on-going problem in the company is intercultural communication. Intercultural communication in the company relates speech and cultural issues of those belonging to an environment or land different from their own. A person who is raised in India is going to have a different culture than someone raised in the United States. People from India find it difficult to adapt to the United States and vice versa. Divergent thinking and convergent are similar, but different. Divergent thinking starts off with imagining all possibilities, during which the analyzing of the problems comes from convergent thinking. In turn after analyzing the problems, it helps you select all possible solutions. Apparently, the divergent and convergent thinking processes are the yin and yang of creative problem solving. One is not better than the other. They are just more suitable for the job at hand. Both processes are important to the eventual outcome of any group brainstorming session. It’s important to understand the benefits of the processes. If you are able to understand, you will be able to recognize under what kind of thinking is actually taking place. You will also be able to make the decision as to which method of thinking would be most effecting...

...phone. This paper will look at the manual and critique it for a number of things such as readability and understanding of the content. The first part of the manual that I am going to critique is the how well the manual is written. The manual is written in a way that most users will be able to understand what the manual is telling them to do. However, in the beginning of the manual it seems that it is backtracking when it gets to the point of telling the user was is to be found in the packaging. I would have put that information first and then proceed with discussing the device. The manual however, begins by describing the device, and then informs the user what should be in the package. The packaging information should also be listed first because it states in the wording that the device may look differently than described so this should be listed before the basic phone description to avoid confusion. While the written part of the manual is important visual aids are also important to show the user exactly what should be done. The second part of this critique will cover the visual aids that are present in the user manual for the Samsung Galaxy S4. Throughout the entire user manual there are visual aids to help the user understand the steps that should...

...English 300 online 25 June 2015 All We Need Is a Push Writing has never been an easy subject for me. Lt alone the fact that English was not my first language. Back in my old country, even writing in the language that I was growing up with was no so easy for me either. At the younger age, I could never understand, why would people take a simple idea and expand it into hundreds of or even thousands of word. To the younger me, it was just like telling a same idea to someone over and over again. As I grew older, now that I am looking back, I realize I was just being lazy. Like I was to everything else in my life: always try to find a simpler and faster solution to a problem. If there was anything my high school English teacher has taught me that I would remember for life, that is, just like pretty much everything else in life. To be able to write a good piece of paper, it will require a lot of hard work. Unlike the teachers from my old high school, my English teacher of the high school I was graduated from, Mr. Roger has a lot more experience dealing with ESL student. Because of the district that our school was in. There are a ton of students that came from many different country around the world, which gave our school more change to get more experience on dealing with different level student. Not only Mr. Roger’s balded head and face that full of beard draw student attention to him, but the way he teach class also get our attention easily. He always like to start his class...
