i think one of the main reasons that leads to a list of differences is that in Canada, universities are some kind of a “service”: students pay good money for it, and expect to receive a good service in returnUniversities in Canada are much more customer oriented to students than in Russia. Professors and staff try to make a student`s experience the best they possibly can!
Also there are lots of different resources available to help students. Such as if a student is struggling with figuring out what are they going to do with their career, if they need information about extending their study permit or if they run into some issues with understanding subjects they are studying, there are many people available to help. In each university there will be lots of advising available (academic, career, international and so on). Professors` office hours and various services likePeer Education are conducted by students for the benefit of student experience and community..
2. We are living in a society which is called "technologically civilized" society.Every small work we do is technology dependent. Today every other person is recognized with the device or gadget ,he carries; which is technically advanced. Ultimately , we can say that ,"living without technology is like living without air" in this technical world of today.Therefore, we are much dependent on technology.
Starting with the simple example of food storage. Today the shelf life of the food products is increased with help of modern technology and even preparation time of food is reduced with the help of new machines and equipment. Thus ,making the consumer to have an ease at its consumption and also in saving a lot of productive time. Ultimately, making the person dependent on it for his own benefits. This is unlike to the times of traditional cooking where people had to spare time and even do physical labor compared to the modern technically advanced time of today.
Technology made our lives simple but much dependent on it. We can sit in a corner and get connected to the world. Thus making the world a "global community." Communicate with a person in remote area within fraction of seconds ,make a trip of the world within no time, all these are possible with the advanced technology ,making us more dependent on its usage. 3.For centuries, people have all been looking for a better way to get where they have to go than looking at a map. Maps can be very dangerous to use if traveling in a caralone, because people tend to try to read the map while driving. After years of searching for a way, The GPS system was born.
On June 24, 1993 the United States Air Force launched the 24th Navstar satellite into orbit, completing a network of 24 satellites known as the Global Positioning System(GPS). The GPS works with a receiver that you can buy for only a few hundred dollars, or less, and can instantly tell you the longitude and latitude, and even altitude of where you are, as accurate as a few hundred feet. It can also show you on its screen (a small screen) where you are.
The first receivers were available for surveyors were as large as a suitcase, and had to be transported in trucks. Today most of the receivers are commonly the size of acellular phone, and like cellular phones, have signal available 24/7 in most parts of the world. GPS modernization offers great benefits many people including, construction workers, mappers, surveyors, aviation, marine and automobile navigation, and agriculturists.
This new technology is increasingly popular with drivers everywhere. GPS systems were first made available to civilians in 2007. Technology changes constantly, impacting the way we work. Increased accuracy of measurements, enhanced productivity, and advancements in receiver technology are in the very near future. GPS users are very excited to have this technology in their hands.
Because of the amount of time that is required to develop a new generation of satellites, the DOD is already planning system considerations through the year 2030. Currently a team of scientists is researching the next generation...
