Learning journals

I came to Unitec in the middle in this course, I attend only one week, but I think is very useful for me, because it is an introduction to my real course and to my language skills. So I really enjoy this week in the course with two helpful excited teachers and with my classmates.

The most important think in the course for me the writing. I feel my writing is improvement with this course such as spilling and vocabulary. And I learned who can I write paragraph and I got more words in English. And I create a blogs and I have good page I can write for everything when I want. About reading I haven’t got a lot of interest, but when I read blogs for my classmate a got a useful to my reading.

Why it's important?

Why the electrical and electronics engineer is important?

Today everything around you operates with electrical power, when you go anywhere you use electrical. For example in home, hospitals, airports, schools, colleges, restaurant and more place.

The invention of a practical incandescent light bulb in the 1870s led to lighting becoming one of the first publicly available applications of electrical. Electricity is used within telecommunications and optical fibre and satellite communication technology have taken a share of the market for communication systems, but be expected to remain an essential part of the process.

Science has helped to create new electronic device. These days everybody has electronics devices such as, computer, mobiles, digital camera and MP3 player.

And the main electronics operates by the transistor, perhaps one of the most important inventions of the twentieth century, and a fundamental building block of all modern electronics circuit, a modern integrated circuit (IC) may contain a billion minimized transistor in only a few centimetre black square.

The Workforce in Zooland

The chart shows the percentage of the workforce in Zooland between 1990 and 2010. The main trend was that people have left service providers jobs and people have become knowledge workers in this time.

In 1990 the percentage of service providers was around 63 percent but in 2010 it has become almost 31 percent. There are almost half as many service providers as there were in 1990.
In contrast, the percentage of knowledge workers in 1990 was around 15 percent but in 2010 it has become almost 47 percent. There are more than half as many knowledge workers as there were in 1990.
