Meeting group one

Aims of meeting:

One week ago my group met in the class. Mohammad led the meeting and talked about gender integration. They discussed about the problems, goals and the solutions. The goals are improving students’ skill in the class and at the end we chose a good solution for this problem.


A) Date: 24.02.2010
b) Venue (place): F 52
c) Time: 12:45 p.m.
d) Names of participants:
1. Mohammad Saleh
2. Ahmed Al Braiky
3. Abdullah Masoud
4. Saoud Abdullah
e) Agenda:
1) Goal of gender integration
2) Problems of gender integration
3) Solution of problems
Mohammad called the meeting to order at 12:45. Each one said something:
1- Mohammad said the gender integration is a good idea for improving the marks for students because the students realize the information when there are girls in class.
2- Ahmed Al Braiky mentioned some solutions for the mixed class.
3- Abdullah Masoud said every student who gets high marks will join a mixed class and after that the lazy student will study more to join the mixed class.
4- Saoud Abdullah was absent.

*We all agreed with Abdullah Masoud because it’s the best solution to stimulate the students to get high marks and get a higher education.

*Mohammad asked if there was AOB; he then closed the meeting at 2:00 pm.

Reflection:

We learnt that in every meeting there must be a chairman to lead the discussion and a secretary to record the minutes. It is vital to have an agenda so that we stick to the subject and avoid wasting time. Mohammad chaired the meeting very effectively. Perhaps we need more detailed solutions to the problems which we discuss.

introduce Abdullah

Good morning. Today I would like to introduce my partner in class Abdullah Khalid. I am going to talk about his life, home time and free time. He is 19 years old. He was born in the US, California. Abdullah lives now in Abu Dhabi. He has 5 brothers and he has a car which is called a Hummer. Abdullah is now studying at ADMC and he would like to be a businessman. In his free time he likes to read books and he plays taekwondo.

His ambition to be business because he likes to deal with products and he loves the money.

The best holiday was when he went to Egypt with his family in 2009. It was good because he visited the museums and pyramids.

He thinks the best thing about ADMC is reading in the library because reading you learn more than by listening and the worst thing is no course in the summer. For example, if i need to graduate earlier I must take some course.

Now you know about Abdullah and thank you for listening.
