Reflection




I enjoyed learning Summarizing and referencing. Summarizing Help students recognize how information is structured will help them summarize what they read or hear.
Also Referencing is an important feature of academic writing. Referencing is the easiest part and the most difficult part is Summarizing.
When we did the referencing and bibliography, our teacher can check our source and verify our conclusion, also when we cited the pages, we respect the author who writes the pages, so we didn’t do the plagiarism.
When I learned bibliography and referencing the page, I became thoroughly familiar with my research before I begin drafting my work. It helps us in organizing our sources far more effectively than a plain works cited page could. Because we will summarize and describe every source, we will become familiar with what each source discusses. Without these summaries or descriptions, we may forget which source made a crucial point that supports our topic.
I would to learn another class like 1103 in the future because it’s Interesting .

Preserving Emirati Traditions

There are some traditional Emirati sports such as falconry and Arabian saluki hunting that keep the traditions of UAE a live. Tourists who come should see these traditions everywhere they go and these elements will reflect our history and culture to them. Our traditional way of life should be given to students in schools and universities by an Emirati instructors. Students also must practice the traditional sports and not only learn them. Our young Emiratis should be educated about their traditions because it is important part of our national identity. If they are not aware of our traditions they will skip it because they are consumed in technology. Our traditional hunting ways are still used but the traditional transportation has changed.
