"Saving Earth" magazine represents

the truth about the team work we

shared to create a product which will

help everyone to get more

knowledge and to learn many things

to make the earth a better place to

live in.

The main purpose of this magazine is

to focus on the renewable energy.

The contributors include other

related topics in their columns, such

as entertainment section, a

commentary on science fiction,

stress management and facts and

events.

In the upcoming days, we will face a

difficult time because of people`s

consumptions, and continuously

rising energy demand. Perhaps, we

can`t sense it now, but it might

change the life terms badly if there

will be NO action to be taken.

Hopefully, Saving Earth magazine will

insures that the message will reach

readers mind.

Health and safety

A survey of 15 students was conducted

recently at CCE. The purpose of the survey

is to find out the techniques and the

methods of studying also how students

organize their time.

The graph below shows that many of the

respondents have chosen memorizing as

their best way of studying, when average

number of the respondents chose critical

thinking as their best way of studying.

All in all, students who organized their time

and who chose the day time to study got

higher marks than the others who chose to

study in the afternoon that got less marks.

The survey team recommends students to

well organize their time table for studying

and don’t be shy to ask the teachers for any

doubts.

This survey was conducted at the CCE among FDN

students in order to find the problems that they are facing

in the hostel. The questionnaire was distributed to them

so they can explain what problems they face in their

rooms and any other issues. Also, they suggested actions

to make the hostel more comfortable place to live.

Most of the respondent stated that they are not

comfortable living in a hostel because they are finding

some problems with the transportation, the space in the

rooms and there is no dining room so they are eating fast

food all the time. As a result of this, they are feeling sick

and tired from it and wish to eat fresh food. Most of the

respondents are having some recommendations like the

college should solve the transportation problem and

getting them a stable network connection in the hostel to

help them on their studies.

All in all, the students who are living in a hostel are having

some issues with the transportation, parking, internet and

the space of the rooms. Thus, the survey team is

recommending the following; the students should ask the

college to improve the hostel by adding dining rooms,

internet connection, parking space and wider space for

bedrooms.
