Final presntation report

On Wednesday 29^th  early morning  Khalifa AlKhoori presented about road accidents with Mr.Hedley; in the introduction he said in the past 30 years means of transportation were not highly available as of now. Cars were not invented as much as people needed, there were no traffic lights and roads were simply sand. As years passed by, car inventions changed until the roads themselves cannot take all the transportation and it leads to road accident.

He said that the main causes of road accidents are those drivers that over speed and they drive like they own the road; those who feel excitement and adventure when they drive so fast and overtake all the time; also those who drive with the influence of alcohol can’t concentrate while driving; lastly he said using mobile phones while driving is a high risk and you lose all your concentration and focus on who you are talking to. As a consequence he said that all of those causes would lead us to great changes in our life; mostly they died or were injured. Khalifa talked about the possible solutions; he said that government must assign every police station a high-restricted law with strict punishments so that drivers will motivate themselves in driving, increase radars and put more signs to make people aware.

Meeting Reflection

 

I had the opportunity to attend a round table in-class meeting on March 14^th 2013 in room J12 at 1400hrs along with three other group members. The Prinicpal, Mohamed AlFahim, opened the meeting at 1410hrs and Khalid Al Khoori listed the various agenda points of the meeting. There was a high level of participation of all the group members where all the points were discussed and deliberated. The different perspectives from different participants were taken into account including the disagreements and the constructive suggestions. Mansoor Al Hashimi opposition of getting a fast food restaurant was taken positively by other group members when the group was discussing the type of food that is being served in the school, especially by Khalifa Al Khoori, who proposed Subway as a healthier option. The Vice Principal, Khalid Al Khoori as well as the Principal supported having a good food brand in the school. The dietary habits of students with prominent fast food items making its way in the school and its resultant adverse impact on the health was constructively handled with the suggestion of educating and creating awareness amongst the students and the parents. Representation from Khalifa as member of Abu Dhabi Food Control Authority added significant value on the development of a healthy menu with nutritious food. The significance of keeping prices affordable of the food items was deliberated by the group given the price sensitivity of the students and questions from Mr. Hedley helped the group understand the gaps between what is being served (i.e cold food) and what the school wishes to serve ( i.e. healthy food) to keep the students satisfied.

The meeting was opened and closed in an appropriate manner and was handled effectively with a clear agenda. Participants took turns and demonstrated active listening skills and used positive and supportive verbal and non verbal communication with high level of understanding of the topic. The overall participation level of each member contributed in deliberating the overall objective of providing nutritious, healthy and tasty food in line with the expectations of the students by introducing a good food brand like Subway.
