In the beginning of this course I
was not very sure if I will like it or not but after I start the MOOC which I
found it very interesting and modern way of taking a course and it was good
that a I can chose any topic I like from the website and I chose one of the
courses which is related to the food and health and I relay like it because I
learn many new information and after that I start doing my presentation which
was about Czech Republic also the case study was very interesting because we
should go to the place which we want to do our case study about it and I chose
saadiyat island and in the end of the course we did the final project which
should be about some sport in the UAE and we show this sport in the past and
compare it to nowadays live I decide to do my final project about fishing
because it was very important in our grandparents life. It was Enjoyable course
with a lot of fun and new Information and experiences and I hope we had more
available course of this kind in the college.

Final Project
In this
final project I chose to do about
fishing for many reasons some people take the fishing like a hobby and other
for their business only but in the past in our grandparents did a life and before
finding the oil in the gulf and specially in the UAE the people in this
area they go to the fishing to get the money
of this fish and they live with it their life was so simple without any kind of
convenience so I did an interview with Ahmed
Naser how is 67 year old and we had conversation about the fishing in the past and the fishing nowadays
and this is the interview.
Q: In your opinion what is the big difference in the fishing
man life before and now?
Ahmed: there is a huge difference before they go to fishing
and they consideration it like a job also most of the people relay in the fish
in their cooking and they use to eat fish every day but now there is a verity
of food because of mixing culture and nationality in the UAE there is also a
lot of restaurant under of this modern life.
Q: what happen to the fishing tool now, it is different than
before or still the same?
Ahmed: Actually it is the same but of course there is difference
they develop it because they change the Basic materials for example in the past
they had use Palm fronds to made the (krkor) (it is half round net) but now
they use Flexible metal wire, and there is a new tolls like fishing
hook in the past they only use string.
Q: why the people leave fishing trade?
Ahmed: in fact they did not leave fishing they only change
the main purpose of it ,still there is a lot of men go to the fishing with their
friends and have a lot of fun and if you mean the fishing trade itself yes of course
but we can not said they leave fishing trade but they bring a Employees and
most of theme from India to do all the fishing work include the Financial pat
at the fish market and after they sale all the fish they ask him for the Profits
in my opinion still this way is better than leaving fishing trade at all.
Q: what are the Difficulties for fish men before and
now?
The kind of the Difficulties it is change for example before
they found Difficulties in the boat it was the old one with the sail but now
there is an engine boat they can decrease the time they take it and the effort
they did but now they have problem with boat bearings and they did not the big
support from both society and government because of that we found a lot of the
fishing men leave their trade as you ask me before, and I relay respect those
who still complete in this trade.

beautiful island which is located in Abu Dhabi, this island is not only for
recreation it is also for those who interested in art because of the Museums that have,

IOC MOOC REFLECTION
IN this essay I will talk about the
IOC MOOC .I watched “The smarter eating for better performance” I watched about
9 videos and each video had a different topic for example: how the food affects
the athlete’s life and the factor that can affect their performance. The first
video was about the type of people and how they are playing sports some of theme
is play sports for fun only 30 min/day
and the other are athlete players .The physical activities affect the person life
and they give example they compare
between a driver’s life and a conductor’s life and how the conductor has the
same size of clothes every year and the driver has bigger size in each year .Being
healthy athlete it is not only about the food only also it is depends on the natural
of the person if you are overweight and you have good health is better than
being slim and you have problems with your body like many people nowadays but
that does not means being overweight .There was many topics in the videos like:
issues with athlete’s like how they can eat well without being tired with doing
exercises every day .There was very important points in the videos like :The impotence
of type of exercise and the impotence of water and all of this things should
have good timing because the timing effect in the athlete’s life. Also they
give example from the real life like that there is some sports needs athlete’s
with high body fat% . (Boxing) also the need of protein for normal person is
(0.8g of protein /1kg) And the athlete’s need (1.4g-1.8g /1Kg) also if the body loss 6Kg of Salt that means
he need more water .And for every 1Kg you loss after doing sport that means you
loss 1 liter of sweat .
I want to say that many ideas in this MOOC
change my mind for example the importance of the timing in taking portion or
doing sports so I will make sure about those things in my future life, also the
body fat% is very interesting point many people thought if they have good shaping
and they are slim that they are healthy but that is not true. Every person has
different body principles and every one should understand how his body is
working also the videos shows very good example in how the type of sports affect
in building muscles by doing experiment that shows person doing different type
of exercise in each leg and he end up with on leg has more muscles than the other,
It was very Useful videos.
