Common Forum/Request/Suggestions / Re: Students motivation

« on: September 18, 2012, 12:56:16 PM »

Thanks you for your support.

As I am a lecturer of Natural Science I need the support and help of senior faculties to arrange some sort of this kind of workshop. I myself instruct all students in the very first class to take the help of DIU web for their studies.

From the last semester I realized that students need  practical discussions on the use of forum and all other existing web support. I try to help them in this regard in the class and if they want to know more then i suggest them to come to my room so that i can give them instructions on how to use learning feedback system or forum.

Environmental Science and Disaster Management / Human made Air pollution

« on: September 17, 2012, 03:49:01 PM »

The primary cause for the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide is fossil fuels, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. This trend coincides with the increase in industrial activity since the Industrial Revolution. The report further goes on to attribute the increases of atmospheric methane and nitrous oxide to agriculture. Both of these contributions also correspond with an increase in the human population during this same time period.

Effects

Ironically, we are affected by the man-made air pollution we cause. Ground-level ozone is caused by a concentration of greenhouse gases at the earth's surface. If you breathe ozone, you are likely to suffer throat and lung irritation. If you have asthma, you may find your attacks come more frequent and more intense. A 2002 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found a direct link between long-term exposure to air pollution and lung cancer and other respiratory conditions.

Environmental Effects

The effects of human-caused air pollution are not limited to people. Acid rain, for example, is formed when emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide combine with moisture in the air to create acidic precipitation. This acid rain can acidify lakes and soils. It can also cause structural damage to buildings and monuments, especially those made of limestone or marble. Many of the historic structures in Washington D.C. are vulnerable to the destructive action of acid rain, with the U.S. Capitol Building itself showing signs of damage.

Prevention/Solution

Just as people have caused an increase in air pollution, so too can they mitigate its effects. Sulfur dioxide emissions, for example, have been significantly reduced in part due to revisions of the Clean Air Act of 1971. Installation of scrubbers on smokestacks has contributed to a more than 70 percent reduction in sulfur dioxide emissions during 1980 to 2008. Perhaps similar provisions can reduce other greenhouse gases and reduce the environmental impact of air pollution.

Guidance for Job Market / Prepare for a mock interview

« on: September 17, 2012, 10:50:46 AM »

Prepare for a Mock Interview:

Be sure to take your mock interview as seriously as you would an actual interview. Get ready for the interview just as you would for an interview with a hiring manager:

    * Arrive 10-15 minutes early, and bring your resume and any other materials you would bring to a real interview.
    * Bring a notebook to take notes on what your mock interviewer tells you.
    * Dress in professional interview attire.

Guidance for Job Market / Re: Improving Interview Technique

« on: September 17, 2012, 10:45:26 AM »

1. Know the Facts

Review your work history - and make sure what you say matches what's on your resume. Take the time to learn about the company and about the job.

2. What You Don't Say

What you don't say can - and will - be used against you in a job interview. If you come to an interview chewing gum or drinking coffee, you will already have one strike against you. Too much perfume or not enough deodorant won't help either. Not being dressed appropriately or having scuffed shoes will give you a second strike. Talking or texting on your cell phone or listening to an iPod while waiting to be called for the interview may be your final strike and you could be done with your candidacy before you even say a word.

Guidance for Job Market / Improving Interview Technique

« on: September 17, 2012, 10:40:54 AM »

A job interview gives you a chance to shine. What you say and what you do is going to either move you to the next round of consideration for employment or knock you out of contention. It doesn't take much to make an impression - good or bad. If you haven't taken time to dress appropriately or if you say the "wrong" thing, it will be over.

Take the time to prepare your interview technique including knowing what's on your resume, being able to present why you are qualified for the job, why you are interested in the company, and practicing staying calm and focused. It's important to remember that the image the interviewer has of you when he first meets you is the one that is going to last.
