student ORIENTATION programme


Question:
All new students entering a college or university are required to participate in orientation programme. 
Do you think this practice shouldbe discontinued? Why or why not?


             College orientation is more than a cursory introduction to a university. These one to two day sessions give new freshmen and transfer students  and their families to an overview of what to expect as a new college student.Orientation usually includes tours of the campus and residence halls, panel discussions on academic and student life, small group sessions on topics such as financial aid ,an information fair with representatives from various campus organizations and a chance to register for classes with help from a peer counselor or staff advisor. There are receptions and social events too. For many students, it’s a chance to meet new classmates-to-be. For parents, it's also a golden opportunity to scout out textbook options, residence life extras and nearby coffeehouses, bakeries and restaurants and information they'll need down the road. So, in  my opinion, students orientation programme should be a continuous programme as students manage to learn and follow the university rules and get to be familiar with the new environment at their new place of study.


               Firsly, students can learn to follow all the general rules at their college or university well. As we all know, all the college or university had set up their own university or college rules for the students to follow. All the rules that have been set up can discipline the students in their daily life studying at the university. If the student orientation programme discontinued, just imagine how the students could manage to understand and follow the rules well? Do you think that by reading all the rules  at the bulletin board or in a CD that have been given by the college officer can ensure them to follow the rule?. In my opinion, all of these ways to expose student regarding college or university rules does not really make any sense and it a just a waste effort.If the university or college held the orientation programme, there will be someone to give them a talk about the rules of the university that must be followed by the students. If they could not understand about some of the rules, they manage to ask to the officer that give a talk directly for better understanding.



                 Orientation programme for all new students in the university or college shoud be continued as they may get to know well everything about the college or university. There are a lot of things that students need to know before entering a college so that they do not feel nervous and confounded when they first meet with all the lecturers, other new students, seniors and university's staff. If orientation programmes discontinued, students may not be able to know their own lecturers and starts their first day in class with not knowing anyhing. This is not benefecial for students as they may feel uncomfortable with the new environment. Besides, if they have a problem in their study, they can seek help from the other senior students which they manage to know during orientation student.Thus, orientation programmes should be continued to help students to get used with the new life in university by introducing all about university's stuff such as the canselor of university, lecturers, student representative councils, university's staff and most importantly, they will be introduced about the place where they will be studying. This will make them to be familiar with the environment at thir university. This also make their life easy because they manage to know where to go when they are sick as each universiti must have their own clinic inside the university to help the student.


                 Next,  orientation programs also significant  in introducing students to the information and general knowledge about the courses and their organisations.Student’s should take this opportunity to understand the big picture the way of university student’s life and study in order for them to cope with the subjects and courses well.It is proven that most universities’s students unable to perfom well,  hence getting a lower grades in their first semester because they actually cannot make  head and tail the topics of their study and the way of study as certain subjects need different approachment in study. For example, medicine’s students are more based on understanding while engineering’s student are more towards exercising. Orientations programme act as the introduction towards the university and tell the students how the university develop the student’s interest. So,every student should be able to undestand this very well.


                        Lastly,most students acknowledge the important of having orientations programs. However, most of them still feel that orientation programme is a waste of time.Bacause of that perceptions,therefore some students tend to skip the orientation programs held by the board of university hence making them unaware to the elements that the university want from them which they should know as a students of the university.Students should not take this matter for granted instead they should start to get down to brass tacks as the first step is the most important step of all.

Space Exploration.......

Space Exploration is  a waste of time and money.
Do You Agree???




                     Space travel is humanity's greatest adventure by which it is the chance to explore the moon, the planets, and the stars. The space age began on October 4, 1957. On that day, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics launched Sputnik l, the first artificial satellite to circle the earth. The first manned space flight was made on April 12, 1961, when a Soviet cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin, orbited the earth in a spaceship. During the years that followed this first space expedition, many flights carried people into space.
So, in my opinion, space exploration is not a waste of time and energy as it will make a country more outstanding in the eye of the world and the citizen can get valuable information regarding sciences and also to replace the earth natural resources in the future

                      It is a wrong perception to say that discovering and exploring the space is a waste of time and energy because this may be beneficial in the future to the new developing country like Malaysia. This effort  will make Malaysia more  outstanding and developing country. As we all know, it is not an easy task to send the astronout to the space but Malaysia has prooved that Malaysia also succeed to send their own astronout to the space. The first astronout of Malaysia was Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor and he has made the citizen of Malaysia being so proud of Malaysia. This achievement prooved that Malaysia also can stand at the same level with the other outstanding country in the world such as Russian and America. Russia and America were the earliest countries that manage to send their own astronout to the space and this achievement had made the two country so well-known in the world. Now, Malaysia has got the chance to follow their step and succed in it. This will  make Malaysia a more well-known country  and automatically can attract the other country to coorperate with Malaysia in any field in the future. So, it is not true to say that space exploration is a waste of time and energy as it will benefit the country and its citizen in the future.

                      Futhermore,related to today's earth population when its natural resources are continuously used up by its citizens, this his resources are moving towards its depletion.The cost for researches to find a new natural resources is nothing compared to the impact it can give to today's earth population as well as future generations.Earth is just a tiny fragment of universe where it resources almost reach it end compare to limitless resources of this universe and if this resources can be posibbly bring to earth,all terrestrial organism should no longer have to worry.So, space exploration can benefit the Earth as we can get the new natural resources from space when the natural resources in Earth has finished.This outer space researches should be continuosly being done to ensure that earth will be able to sustain it resources in the future and to prevent earth from becoming back into the old ages where humans would take months to travel.

                        On the other hand, space exploration is beneficial tu human as human can learn the valuable knowledge about something that they are not able to see. It is a precious and adventure journey to travel to the world that  we are not live d in. Only human with a great strength will have a chance to travel to the space such as astronout. They also learned new knowledge before travelling to the space. Besides that, they also must have a great physical strength by carrying out difficult physical activites. When they travel to the space, they also manage to learn the life in space where there is no gravity like the Earth. Next, the astronout also can enhance their knowledge in the field of sciences by carrying out their experiment to proove the new discovery result in space like what Dr Sheikh Muszaphar had done. He carried out an experiment relating
the characteristics and growth of liver cancer and leukemia cells, the crystallisation of various proteins and microbes in space.When he came back to Malaysia, he can share his experience when travel and living in space and information about the experiments the he had carried out in space.Then, the citizens will feel the excitement of exploring the space, thus there will be more knowledgeable new  generations will be born in the country to take the responsibility in developing the country in the field of  sciences.


                     
                         In conclusion, space exploration is not a waste of time and energy as there are many countries out there trying to develop their country in this field and build their own space center and send their astronout to the outer space. This prooved that this field has many advantages and human need to explore it in order to get a valuable knowledge about sciences, to obtain natural resources and to become a more developing country. Scientists hope that exploration of space will answer many questions about the universe regarding about how the sun, the planets, and the stars were formed, and whether life exists elsewhere.
All this process can only be known by exploring the space.
