QUALITY OF LIFE IN UNI GLAM

 

POSITIVE EFFECTS	NEGATIVE EFFECTS
Health services	Racism
Security	Food
Teachers are friendly	Assignments
Facilities/ infrastructures	Accommodation
Campus accessibility	Relationships
Help/ Friendly	Home sickness
Quality of clothing	Anxiety
Transportation eg.trains, cars, buses	Self-responsibility
Good deals	Alcohol/drug abuse
	Cost of living

Positive factors that will affect me at uni glam is that te health services are good. they provide essential facilities that assist students.The teachers at uni are very friendly and assist in any way possible. The infrastructures and facilities are extraordinary and fascinating in terms of internet accessibility as well as printing services that are easy to use. The security provided in school makes one feel comfortable knowing that there is some sort of protection for students. Individuals can get great deals from student union, or off campus from contract phones,tcontract laptops, furniture, cars anh houses. One can be able to pay mortgage in months or over years unlike back in my home country. Not only that but the quality of clothing sold in wales or United KIngdom is fo good quality and is expensive but worthwhile.

Apart from the good and positive sides of the uni life at glam, racism is a bad effect because it makes an individual  feel neglected as well as isolated. The course work given to the students is a lot and that affects in a way because thee is no time for leisure or relaxation, hence stress. With too much course work and stress students tend rely on alcohol and drug abuse as a way to relieve themselves. That leads to a bad effect in uni assignments. A lot of alcohol intake can lead to depression and cause home sickness as a consequence.

LANGUAGE

The language chosen from around the world is English that first started in britain and travelled throughout the world.
'The history of the English language really started with the arrival of three Germanic tribes who invaded Britain during the 5th century AD. These tribes, the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes, crossed the North Sea from what today is Denmark and northern Germany. At that time the inhabitants of Britain spoke a Celtic language. But most of the Celtic speakers were pushed west and north by the invaders - mainly into what is now Wales, Scotland and Ireland. The Angles came from Englaland and their language was called Englisc - from which the words England and English are derived.'( Englishclub 2012). The language is spoken all over Britain.

'English was not spoken in England until 449, when three Germanic tribes from Denmark, the Jutes, Angles, and Saxons, invaded Britain.
The Angles, who settled along the east coast of north and central England, developed literate culture and gave their name to the country (Angle-land, England).
The language of these tribes, Anglo-Saxon or Old English, is the precursor of modern English.' (answersuniverse, 2012)

It use to be the centre for  trade a few years ago until recently when it was changed to jut a luxury place. This is the place where all the laws are made and enforced throughout Wales. The meetings held in this place are called plenary meetings and they take place every Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon at 13.10 in the Siambr.

The Senedd has a particular ceiling  which is called a wind cowl which draws out warm air and is cooled and passed down to the room and is distributed throughout the whole of the builing. It is also used to collect water from thousands of glasses that are put on the roof when it rains.

'A referendum is a form of direct democracy but a referendum is rarely used in British Politics. In most issues, as befits representative democracy, the government decides policy after Parliamentary debates etc. Referendums put the onus on the voter in what is essentially a 'yes' or 'no' choice. The Labour Party promised two in its 1997 manifesto on the issue of whether we join the Euro or not and whether the country needed another electoral system to replace the First-Past-The-Post system. Five years later, both these referendums have yet to be called.' referendums (2012)



The changes that were made in the referendum last year are as follows:

'Among the areas announced by the First Minister on 12th July 2011 that Bills will address are:

• Making local authorities to further collaborate when delivering services.
• A new Food Hygiene Rating Scheme to help improve food safety and provide consumers with easily understandable information.
• Organ Donation Bill to create an opt-out system of organ donation.
• The Schools and Standards Bill to tackle under performing schools.
• Reforming social services to provide for the first time a coherent Welsh legal framework to meet changing social expectations and demography.
• Action to address homelessness and empty dwellings, as well as improving standards and tenants' rights in the private rented sector.
• Introduce a duty on Local Authorities to provide and maintain cycle paths in key areas.
• Consolidate existing legislation to make the planning system more transparent and accessible.

The following are the Assembly Bills announced for the 2011/12 session'
