Adjustment Reports Samples For Students

Students studying abroad are bound to undergo an adjustment period as they attempt to adjust to their new surroundings. When a student goes abroad to study, there are many changes they will encounter in their new country that were not accustomed previously. This change of lifestyle is known as culture shock, as students can experience different challenges while trying to adapt to their new countries and schools. The following paper is designed to discuss a survey of the impacts of culture shock on students when studying abroad, and their coping strategies. The survey was conducted using SurveyMonkey and consisted of 10 ...

The article, the introduction to crisis theories is an article that attempts to explain the crisis that is found in the capitalist countries. In a capitalist economy, the citizens own the factors of production and hence the government has no control over the resources. The citizens make the major production decisions. Since there is competition, the resources are carefully exploited in an attempt to maximize profits (Anwar, 220). The article tries to identify the failures of capitalist economy. The failures in the economy and in political sector are what the article refers to as crisis. Even though there are periods ...

Wave and Wind Power Generation

Wind Physics Basics
Wind is atmospheric air which is in motion
Energy Source
The earth surface absorbs solar radiation differently. Some parts absorb more radiation than other. This creates pressure zones. As a result of pressure, air moves from high-pressure zones to low-pressure zones. This causes atmospheric air motion known as wind. Wind is a renewable source of energy. It is constantly available free of charge (Bhattacharyya, 2011).

Spatial scales

Atmospheric air motion can be categorized depending in terms of spatial scale. Four spatial scales identified include planetary scale, synoptic scale, mesoscale, and microscale. There are various types of spatial scales ...

Control valves are an important gadget in engineering and the building of structures. Virtually, there are thousands of loops that determine how machines operate. Fundamentally, a valve controls the thermodynamic flow of fluid through regulation of fluid volume and speed. In essence, material flow at every point in the loop is the control using a control valve. In the engineering, there are fluid loops that contain energy transmission fluids, as well as loops containing different materials related to the nature of the end product manufactured. As a matter of fact, besides the structural characteristics that a control valve possesses, there are numerous accessories ...

Technical Specifications of Visual Mind

Visual Mind is a tool used for mind mapping, which is a technique developed by Tony Buzan to enable one to put their mind on paper. It is more efficient than the normal taking down of notes (Mind Technologies, 2010f).

Mind Mapping

“A Mind Map consists of a map title (title branch), which holds the subject of the map” (Mind Technologies, 2010f, p. 4). The title branch can have child branches as the title branch is expanded with the addition of thoughts about the subject. Each thought can in turn have more detailed thoughts under them, making the mind map grow bigger.
