This topic is it's all about of the "Psychological health". The Psychological health is the study of psychological and behavioral processes in health, illness, and healthcare. It is concerned with understanding how psychological, behavioral, and cultural factors contribute to physical health and illness. Psychological factors can affect health directly. For example, chronically occurring environmental stressors affecting the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, cumulatively, can harm health.

This topic it's all about of the development, on how to pursuit the fast way of learning in the right way using strategies.
Developing effective learners’ refers to approaches that support pupils to plan, monitor, understand and manage their own learning, in order to develop inquisitive, self-motivated learners. These approaches include peer tutoring, collaborative learning, feedback, and metacognition and self-regulation strategies. 
Evidence emerging from EEF evaluations and the wider evidence base suggests that when used and implemented correctly, alongside good teaching of content and skills, these approaches provide powerful ways to raise pupil attainment.

This topic is it's all about of the physical emotions, that can hardly harm to the human person if they will come into this situation.
bad. Some stress can motivate you and get you ready for action.
Stress is a problem when there’s too much of it or it goes on for too long.
Signs of teen stress can show up in behaviour, emotions, body and thinking.
You can help your child with stress by listening, spending time together, encouraging your child to eat well, sleep, exercise and think positively.
Stress in teenagers – and anyone – can be unpleasant, but it’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Stress is the way your body responds to challenges and gets you ready to face them with attention, energy and strength. When you feel you can cope with these challenges, stress gets you ready for action and gives you the motivation to get things done.
Everyone experiences stress. There’s nothing wrong with your teenage child if he’s stressed. But stress can cause problems when it goes on for too long, or your child has more stress than he can cope with.

This topic is all about challenges, that it comes to our lives right now.
A
dolescence is a turbulent period for most people. Understandably so – you are saddled with decisions about career, lifestyle and sex. As a male child, it is even more difficult – you also have to make decisions about drugs, alcohol, family etc. You are under a lot of pressure to live up to society’s definition of ‘a man’. Planning life directions can be especially difficult if you are ill-equipped on how to deal with situations that you face.
In order to enjoy a crisis-free adolescence and emerge a responsible adult, it is paramount that you possess skills such as decision-making, assertiveness and goal-setting skills. You also need to be able to take charge of your life.
Your values are what you believe in, what you think is right or wrong, and what is most important to you. Decisions that you’ll make will be based on your values. You draw your values from a variety of sources, such as parents, family friends, religion, etc. However, do not ‘borrow’ other people’s values – let your values be yours.

This topic is its all about of the puberty in the science term. The puberty's/Early, Middle, Late Adolescent is all about changing of hormones in every individual person in this world.
Stages of Adolescence
Adolescence is the period of transition between childhood and adulthood. It includes some big changes—to the body, and to the way a young person relates to the world.
The many physical, sexual, cognitive, social, and emotional changes that happen during this time can bring anticipation and anxiety for both children and their families. Understanding what to expect at different stages can promote healthy development throughout adolescence and into early adulthood.
Adolescence is the period of transition between childhood and adulthood. It includes some big changes—to the body, and to the way a young person relates to the world.
The many physical, sexual, cognitive, social, and emotional changes that happen during this time can bring anticipation and anxiety for both children and their families. Understanding what to expect at different stages can promote healthy development throughout adolescence and into early adulthood. 
Early Adolescence (Ages 10 to 13)
During this stage, children often start to grow more quickly. They also begin notice other body changes, including hair growth under the arms and near the genitals, breast development infemales and enlargement of the testicles in males. They usually start a year or two earlier in girls than boys, and it can be normal for some changes to start as early as age 8 for females and age 9 for males. Many girls may start their period at around age 12, on average 2-3 years after the onset of breast development.
These body changes can inspire curiosity and anxiety in some―especially if they do not know what to expect or what is normal. Some children may also question their gender identity at this time, and the onset of puberty can be a difficult time for transgender children. 
Early adolescents have concrete, black-and-white thinking. Things are either right or wrong, great or terrible, without much room in between.  It is normal at this stage for young people to center their thinking on themselves (called "egocentrism").  As part of this, preteens and early teens are often self-conscious about their appearance and feel as though they are always being judged by theirpeers.
Pre-teens feel an increased need for privacy.  They may start to explore ways of being independent from their family. In this process, they may push boundaries and may react strongly if parents or guardiansreinforce limits.

This topic is all about our self awareness.
The key to what keeps the high achievers and world class performers motivated is determined by their attitude, beliefs, and behaviors. You will need to develop the required self discipline, awareness, and reliance to accomplish your desired result.
I’ve realized that many people become comfortable with where they are in life because people don’t like change or feeling uncomfortable. To accomplish our dreams we must become the kind of person that it will take to get there.

The purpose of this topic is to learn how to find ourselves, because we don't know who we are.
How well do you really know yourself? We are all aware of the things that society wants us to do, or the people our families want us to be. Sometimes, it's easy to get caught up in projections of who we are; losing touch with our core values, needs, and desires. And if you don't know yourself very well, it's difficult to choose a life path that makes you feel happy and fulfilled. You may also find yourself getting into relationships that don't really suit you, or you may feel lonely because no one really knows the “real” you.
We'll walk you through seven steps you can take if you want to get to know yourself better. Along the way, we'll look at why getting to know each aspect of yourself is so important, and we'll explore common difficulties. As you get to know yourself better, you should see your overall well-being increase in response.
The Importance Of Self Awareness
As noted at the outset, increased self-awareness has wide-ranging positive ramifications. However, one of its most important consequences is increased emotional intelligence. When you're more emotionally intelligent, you're better able to identify and manage your feelings as they come up, neither repressing them nor being lost in them.
Emotionally intelligent people are also more at peace with who they really are, focusing more on meeting their own standards than the standards set by others. Self-awareness and high emotional intelligence are also correlated with greater levels of success. For example, recent psychological studies indicate that many top business leaders have both of these traits, and that plays a key role in their continued achievements.
So, whether you want to excel in your job, are looking to improve the most important relationships in your life or just want to feel more at peace with your own company, you have a lot to gain from working on self-awareness.

“Understanding the Relevance of Information Literacy in the Midst of Social Era”
Answer: Globalization has meant that the world is simply becoming smaller and more connected. This comes at a cost that is there is also a risk that globalization has adverse effects when countries use it to spread their agenda through soft power diplomacy. Through qualitative descriptive method, this paper aims to examine to what extent the young generation can be taught to be more selective in grappling with the abundant information, especially information related to soft power diplomacy in the midst of globalization through online/social media literacy.

Through qualitative descriptive method, this paper aims to examine to what extent the young generation can be taught to be more selective in grappling with the abundant information, especially information related to soft power diplomacy in the midst of globalization through online/social media literacy. Mass media has become a source of information for people who are able to deploy a variety of messages, ranging from economic information, political, economic, social and cultural to defense and security.
In today's digital era, information dissemination channels are increasing, along with the easy accessibility to all sorts of information. Fog says the media's role in a globalized world is to identify the issues and add value to the glut of information for citizens to develop themselves so that they can learn, select, and play an active role with the things that promote a nation. Although conventional media such as newspapers, television and radio stations have been using technology to generate maximum output, the growing trend of Internet usage has an impact on the decline in the use of the conventional media. The increase in the number of internet users is also accompanied by the increased access to social media as the new mass media in society. The rapid penetration of the Internet and the increasing number of social media users trigger the conventional media to direct media content via the Internet, particularly through social media. The conventional mass media began to implement its content delivery online so that the audience can have access to the media content via online news sites directly through smartphones. This allows the audience to stay updated with the latest info and news even when it was busy replying to a short message from a friend without having to turn on the television first.
Instructions:
1. Using the Web, access Google or other fact-checking shortcuts, verify the headlines/claims. 
2. Then, write FALSE if the headlines/claims are fake and write TRUE if the headlines/claims are evidence-based or facts.

2. Provide the most logical explanation to each question.
Activity 3: Analysis of Information Sources
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
1. Based on the journalistic process of verification, independence and accountability, is there a difference between the two? Explain.
Answer:  Journalistic ethics and standards comprise principles of ethics and good practice applicable to journalists. This subset of media ethics is known as journalism's professional "code of ethics" and the "canons of journalism". The basic codes and canons commonly appear in statements by professional journalism associations and individual print, broadcast, and online news organizations. While various codes may have some differences, most share common elements including the principles of truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, fairness, and public accountability, as these apply to the acquisition of newsworthy information and its subsequent dissemination to the public.
Like many broader ethical systems, the ethics of journalism include the principle of "limitation of harm." This may involve the withholding of certain details from reports, such as the names of minor children, crime victims' names, or information not materially related to the news report where the release of such information might, for example, harm someone's reputation. Some journalistic codes of ethics, notably some European codes, also include a concern with discriminatory references in news based on race, religion, sexual orientation, and physical or mental disabilities. The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe approved (in 1993) Resolution 1003 on the Ethics of Journalism, which recommends that journalists respect the presumption of innocence, in particular in cases that are still sub judice.
2. Did the article and the Facebook post follow the process of verification? How can you tell?
Answer:  Facebook is changing the way hundreds of millions of people relate to one another and share information. A rapidly growing body of research has accompanied the meteoric rise of Facebook as social scientists assess the impact of Facebook on social life. In addition, researchers have recognized the utility of Facebook as a novel tool to observe behavior in a naturalistic setting, test hypotheses, and recruit participants. However, research on Facebook emanates from a wide variety of disciplines, with results being published in a broad range of journals and conference proceedings, making it difficult to keep track of various findings. And because Facebook is a relatively recent phenomenon, uncertainty still exists about the most effective ways to do Facebook research. To address these issues, the authors conducted a comprehensive literature search, identifying 412 relevant articles, which were sorted into 5 categories: descriptive analysis of users, motivations for using Facebook, identity presentation, the role of Facebook in social interactions, and privacy and information disclosure.
The literature review serves as the foundation from which to assess current findings and offer recommendations to the field for future research on Facebook and online social networks more broadly. With misinformation proliferating online and more people getting news from social media, it is crucial to understand how people assess and interact with low-credibility posts. This study explores how users react to fake news posts on their Facebook or Twitter feeds, as if posted by someone they follow. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 25 participants who use social media regularly for news, temporarily caused fake news to appear in their feeds with a browser extension unbeknownst to them, and observed as they walked us through their feeds. We found various reasons why people do not investigate low-credibility posts, including taking trusted posters' content at face value, as well as not wanting to spend the extra time. We also document people's investigative methods for determining credibility using both platform affordances and their own ad-hoc strategies. Based on our findings, we present design recommendations for supporting users when investigating low-credibility posts.
3. Is the source independent? What makes you say that?
Answer:  We introduce a novel fast algorithm for independent component analysis, which can be used for blind source separation and feature extraction. We show how a neural network learning rule can be transformed into a fixedpoint iteration, which provides an algorithm that is very simple, does not depend on any user-defined parameters, and is fast to converge to the most accurate solution allowed by the data. The algorithm finds, one at a time, all nongaussian independent components, regardless of their probability distributions. The computations can be performed in either batch mode or a semiadaptive manner. The convergence of the algorithm is rigorously proved, and the convergence speed is shown to be cubic. Some comparisons to gradient-based algorithms are made, showing that the new algorithm is usually 10 to 100 times faster, sometimes giving the solution in just a few iterations. This research demonstrates that a marketing claim placed on a package is more believable than a marketing claim placed in an advertisement. In three studies, we show that the benefit of greater believability for packages is driven by perceptions of proximity. 
In general, consumers perceive packages, and thus the claims they offer, as closer to the product than ads and their respective claims. This perception of greater claim-to-product proximity is likely to make a claim seem more verifiable. Therefore, claim to product proximity is taken as a signal.

4. Is there accountability on the part of the source? Explain.
Answer:  In analyses of the role of national educational assessment, insufficient attention has been paid to the central place of the classroom. Rather than encouraging a two-way flow of information, today's" standards-based" frameworks tend to direct the flow of accountability from the outside into the classroom. The authors of this volume emphasize that assessment, as it exists in schools today, consists mainly of the measurements that teachers themselves design, evaluate, and act upon every day. Improving the usefulness of assessment in schools primarily requires assisting and harnessing this flood of assessment information, both as a means of learning within the classroom and as the source of crucial information flowing out of classrooms. This volume aims to encourage debate and reflection among educational researchers, professionals, and policymakers. Five source chapters describe successful classroom assessment models developed in partnership with teachers, while additional commentaries give a range of perspectives on the issues of classroom assessment, standardized testing, and accountability.
Community colleges are open-door institutions serving many students with academic, economic, and personal characteristics that can make college completion a challenge. Their graduation rates are low, but community college students do not always have earning a degree as their goal. While individual students may feel that their experience at a community college is a success, unless it culminates in a credential or transfer to a four-year institution the enrollment is counted as a failure for the college. This report explores different views on whether graduation rates are a fair and valid measure of community college effectiveness. It indicates how these rates can be useful as a relative measure and as a guide for institutional improvement, and suggests other ways of measuring student and institutional success.

“Media and Government: A Love-Hate Relationship”
Tumblr media
Answer:  The Media, and the government. These are the two most powerful institutions in the world. The media and the government has the power to manipulate people and to change how people think on certain topics going around our world today. Both of these institutions are made for us, of the people. Without media, we wouldn’t be able to be notified or alerted about what’s happening today in our world, and without our government, who would be there to discipline us and lead us to the right path? At some points, the media and the government tends to conflict each other. People are saying that some news that are reported are biased, yet the government is saying that it’s not. Some journalists oppose what the government is saying. Because of this the government releases statements that will then oppose the media.
As a result, the people are manipulated. Many netizens post their own statements and opinions on what is happening around them. Because of these people become divided. They have the power to change people’s perspectives. But despite that, let us never forget without media, there would be no transparency in the government. The media serves as our guide and our watchdogs to notify us whatever’s happening now in our world. Even if they conflict at times, without them, life would become harder for us. The government can’t single-handedly lead the people to the right path, for they need a helping hand, and that helping hand is the media.
Instructions:
1. Provide the most logical explanation to each question.
Activity 2: Critical Thinking Questions
 1. Differentiate the salient similarities and differences of traditional media and the new media. Cite sources of where your answers are based.
Answer: Traditional media allows businesses to target a broad target audience through billboards, print advertising, television commercials, and more. In comparison, new media allows companies to target a narrow target audience through social media, paid online ads, and search results. Price-wise, traditional media tends to cost more than new media due to its broad targeting and advertising channels. Traditional media includes mostly non-digital advertising and marketing methods.
Traditional media is:
Television advertisements
Radio advertising
Print advertising
Direct mail advertisements
Billboards and off-site signs
Cold calling
Door-to-door sales
Banner ads
Companies have used these methods for many years to reach consumers and motivate them to make purchases. Up until very recently, these marketing and advertising styles were very effective, and helped businesses just like yours make a profit. However, as the needs and expectations of consumers evolve, marketing has no choice but to evolve as well. This is what has led to the rise of new media and digital marketing methods and the decrease in popularity of some traditional methods you know well. It's also led to the debate between traditional vs. digital media.
Many of these methods have been around for several years, but have only gained prominence recently. Best practices for these methods are currently dependent on their sources, as opposed to depending on the attitudes of consumers. But over time, we may see another shift as consumer feelings change toward these methods. Your business relies on a variety of marketing and advertising methods to reach potential customers and leads. Over time, the marketing methods you use have likely evolved, changed, or even been retired and replaced with new ones. In comparison, new media allows companies to target a narrow target audience through social media, paid online ads, and search results. Price-wise, traditional media tends to cost more than new media due to its broad targeting and advertising channels. Sam Selders discusses the advantages and disadvantages of new media and traditional media. Traditional media includes mostly non-digital advertising and marketing methods. However, as the needs and expectations of consumers evolve, marketing has no choice but to evolve as well.
2. Describe the way media has evolved. Do you think the changes brought by time on these concepts have helped humanity in the access of information? Cite studies that would support your claim.
Answer: Effective communication and teamwork is essential for the delivery of high quality, safe patient care. Communication failures are an extremely common cause of inadvertent patient harm. The complexity of medical care, coupled with the inherent limitations of human performance, make it critically important that clinicians have standardised communication tools, create an environment in which individuals can speak up and express concerns, and share common “critical language” to alert team members to unsafe situations. All too frequently, effective communication is situation or personality dependent. Other high reliability domains, such as commercial aviation, have shown that the adoption of standardised tools and behaviours is a very effective strategy in enhancing teamwork and reducing risk. We describe our ongoing patient safety implementation using this approach within Kaiser Permanente, a non-profit American healthcare system providing care for 8.3 million patients.
To do this book review I was given a bound galley copy as it was not printed yet. I had it with me at a seminar. People noticed the book and asked me about it." Is this the next FieldbookV" How did you get this?" Suddenly, I found myself connecting with people beyond the surface pleasantries. I was experiencing change because of this book. In our work improving performance we initiate change. We identify gaps, analyze causes and recommend a wide array of interventions. These interventions are designed to create change that will be beneficial and long lasting to the organization. But as Senge points out in the beginning of this book, most change efforts fail because they do not produce the hoped-for results. It is important for us to be skilled at initiating and sustaining change. We have to help our clients deal with the challenges of change so they don't become discouraged and revert to the original systems and behaviors that caused their performance gap.
3. Do you think traditional media is still relevant these days? 
Answer: Media Economics, Applying Economics to New and Traditional Media differs from ordinary media economic texts by taking a conceptual approach to economic issues. As the book progresses through economic principles, authors Colin Hoskins, Stuart McFadyen, and Adam Finn use cases and examples to demonstrate how these principles can be used to analyze media issues and problems. Media Economics emphasizes economic concepts that have distinct application within media industries, including corporate media strategies and mergers, public policy within media industries, how industry structure and changing technologies affect the conduct and performance of media industries, and why the United States dominates trade in information and entertainment.
Media Economics emphasizes economic concepts that have distinct application within media industries, including corporate media strategies and mergers, public policy within media industries, how industry structure and changing technologies affect the conduct and performance of media industries, and why the United States dominates trade in information and entertainment. The growing popularity of the World Wide Web as a source of news raises questions about the future of traditional news media. Is the Web likely to become a supplement to newspapers and television news, or a substitute for these media? Among people who have access to newspapers, television, and the World Wide Web, why do some prefer to use the Web as a source of news, while others prefer traditional news media? Drawing from a survey of 520 undergraduate students at a large public university where Internet use is woven into the fabric of daily life, this study suggests that use of the Web as a news source is positively related with reading newspapers but has no relationship with viewing television news. Members of this community use the Web mainly as a source of entertainment. Patterns of Web and traditional media exposure are examined in light of computer anxiety, desire for control, and political knowledge. This study suggests that even when computer skills and Internet access become more widespread in the general population, use of the World Wide Web as a news source seems unlikely to diminish substantially use of traditional news media.

Activity 1: Online Blog Making
“The Value of Being a Media and
Information Literate Individual”
Answer: Media and information literacy enables people to interpret and make informed judgments as users of information and media, as well as to become skillful creators and producers of information and media messages in their own right. MIL combines media literacy and information literacy under one term, and includes a combination of competencies. Media literacy emphasizes the ability to understand media functions, evaluate how they are performed and use them for self-expression, while information literacy emphasizes the importance of access to information and the evaluation and ethical use of such information.
It recognizes the primary role of information and media in our everyday lives. It focuses on the freedom of expression and information since it empowers citizens to understand the functions of media and other information providers, to evaluate their content, and to make informed criticism as users and producer of information and media content. Information Literacy and Media Literacy are traditionally seen as separate fields.
Instructions:
1. Provide the most logical explanation to each question.
Activity 2:   Critical Thinking Questions
1. What other characteristics of being media and information literate can you think of? Make a checklist of an ideal media and information literate person that you want to be.
Answer: I think a media literate person is someone with an open mind, someone willing to listen to every side of an issue. This doesn’t mean he/she has to have such an open mind that his/her brains fall out. Some ideas and positions make sense to an intelligent person and some do not. And it’s up to you to discriminate between truths and falsehoods. A media literate person is someone who READS a diverse number of publications and entertains many different points of view. I recommend the website, Real Clear Politics which everyday links readers to something like 15 different articles which express both liberal and conservative points of view.
•Determine the extent of information needed.
•Access the needed information effectively and efficiently.
•Evaluate information and its sources critically.
•Incorporate selected information into one’s knowledge base.
•Use information effectively to accomplish a specific purpose.
•Understand the economic, legal, and social issues surrounding the use of information, and access and use information ethically and legally.
2. What rules do you think you should live by to become a responsible media user?
Answer: Social media is often viewed as a blessing and a curse. Thoughts photos and videos are shared instantly and widely friends, family and complete strangers receive posts within seconds. In recent news, we’ve discovered lingering or residual effects in which past posts typically those posted in haste negatively impact young people seeking employment or educational opportunities. Have college applicants lost offers of admission or scholarship money due to social media posts they made when they were much younger. Experts in social media know that your profile is your brand and therefore it must be managed. People can learn a great deal of information about you through social media based on patterns of what you say, what you like and what articles and videos you enjoy. Given the fluidity of social media, refreshers on how best to separate our personal and private information benefit each of us. Here are a few tips and reminders to manage your social profile online responsibly and well.
• Own your image, personal information and how these are used.
Pay close attention to the Terms of Use on apps and websites. Most people skim through them to accept immediately, but it’s wise to take a closer look and read all the sections thoroughly. In some situations, you can opt out of automatic facial recognition tags.
• Obtain permissions
When posting videos or images of others on your networks. Never take photos of patients during procedures without permission.
• Scrub your accounts.
Posting to social media leaves an imprint. Delete anything that’s irrelevant, embarrassing or disrespectful. That includes inactive accounts. If you don’t want the entire world to see you in a compromising position, delete it. Reflect seriously on what you post before you post it; if you wouldn’t want to see it on the front page of the newspaper, or you wouldn’t want your family to see it, do not post it.
• Password diligence.
Update passwords frequently. Keep an eye on any dormant accounts if you decide not to delete them. Inactive accounts are prone to hackers.
• Spread love, not hate.

3. How would you put into actualization the ideas of being a media literate individual? Being an information literate?
Answer: The word literacy usually describes the ability to read and write. Reading literacy and media literacy have a lot in common. Reading starts with recognizing letters pretty soon. Readers can identify words and most importantly, understand what those words mean. Readers then become writers with more experience. Readers and writers develop strong literacy skills. Media literacy is the ability to identify different types of media and understand the messages they're sending. Kids take in a huge amount of information from a wide array of sources, far beyond the traditional media (TV, radio, newspapers, and magazines) of most parents youth. There are text messages, memes, viral videos, social media, video games, advertising, and more. But all media shares one thing, someone created in it and it was created for a reason. Understanding that reason is the basis of media literacy. Learn how to use movies and TV to teach media literacy. The digital age has made it easy for anyone to create media. We don't always know who created something, why they made it, and whether it's credible. This makes media literacy tricky to learn and teach. Nonetheless, media literacy is an essential skill in the digital age.
• Learn to think critically.
As kids evaluate media they decide whether the messages make sense. Why certain information was included, what wasn't included, and what the key ideas are. They learn to use examples to support their opinions then they can make up their own minds about the information based on knowledge they already have.
• Become a smart consumer of products and information.
Media literacy helps kids learn how to determine whether something is credible It also helps them determine the persuasive intent of advertising and resist the techniques marketers use to sell products.
• Recognize point of view. Every creator has a perspective.
Identifying an author's point of view helps kids appreciate different perspectives. It also helps put information in the context of what they already know or think they know.
• Create media responsibly.
Recognizing your own point of view, saying what you want to say how you want to say it and understanding that your messages have an impact is key to effective communication.
• Identify the role of media in our culture.
From celebrity gossip to magazine covers to memes, media is telling us something shaping our understanding of the world, and even compelling us to act or think in certain ways.
• Understand the author's goal.
What does the author want you to take away from a piece of media? Is it purely informative, is it trying to change your mind, or is it introducing you to new ideas you've never heard of?. When kids understand what type of influence something has they can make informed choices.
4. How does being an information literate made an impact in your life as a Licean? Do you think the university core values have helped you in the thorough understanding of these concepts?
Answer: For me the impact as an licean, it will makes me help to do something that i known to the knowledge that i read different janras of books or info that I'd have read to the social media like Google, Facebook, YouTube and more. Because its really gives me a hint of big help to my-self as an licean students. As a students that they have to learn and learn more as long as you've or we've got to know different information and gain more knowledge that in our brain, and thats brain is called a library critical thinking thoughts for me. That's why in every details that it comes our mind is a blessing because while you live in this world you need to know more a different knowledge because the knowledge is power and if you don't have the power of knowledge, then while you live in this world your life isn't called a none or null details information brain live human.
Yes, it's very big yes. Because the university of school in every school is very accommodating because they teach the students the way they wanted to know about what is this or what is that about something to will you improve in physical or mental development as an responsible students. The university of different or every school is that they wanted to the students is will know about core values like: loyalty, integrity, discipline and obedience because the way that they'll have this type of core values the students is more to be a better person in the future.
