This document discusses the potential for eBooks to transform legal education. It argues that while some encouragement of eBooks by policymakers is reasonable, the best approach is to let individual law schools decide whether and how to adopt the technology. The major challenges of any policy that mandates eBook adoption are that it is difficult for policymakers to effectively encourage new technologies, there are limited options for incentivizing adoption, and schools will vary in their ability to implement the technology. The best policy would be a prize system that rewards top developers and users of eBooks. This could encourage adoption without overstepping into schools' autonomy.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

1. Some countries, especially poor ones, have a high level of crime, especially poor
countries and which the government and local authorities struggle to solve. The causes of
crime committing are depend on many various factors, however, it is commonly believed that there is
a direct correlation between the number of the crimes and the gross domestic product per person. It’s
logically due to the fact that the poverty is a major factor of crimecommitting. Another factor
which gives the has an impact to on the level of the crime is the difference
in the earnings of the various social groups.
The problem is very complicated and should be solved together by various group of
society organisations and associations.
Firstly, the poor people should care about balancing learn to maintain a
balance between their expenses and incomes which they earn in order to eliminate unpredictable
expenditures such as drinking alcohol, consuming drugs and paying for the consequences of
their bad habits.
Secondly, the government and the local authorities should give a hand up provide long-term support,
instead of giving handouts for to poor people. It gives them a chance to get an education and
obtain a well-paid job as well.
Thus, the more government maintenance control/intervention could decline reduce unemployment
and consequently, the level of the crime.
Thirdly, the media should broadcast information about living a healthy lifestyle in order to persuade
people not to consume drugs and alcohol. It is commonly known that there is a strict relationship
between crimes and drug consumption. Take, for instance, the South American countries such as
Columbia and Bolivia where the government is not able to prevent the crimes because of the high
level of illegal drug sales.
Finally, the international organization community should support the countries which
provide the an active policy in respect of regarding / with regard to the prevention of the crime via
charity donations.
In conclusion, I believe that crime prevention is a very important topic for most countries which could
be solved by the collective efforts and in order to be successful in the reduction of the crime, each
group of in society should make their contribution to minimize the number of crimes and the
government should coordinate the overall process.

ups and cure medicines. That means, this payment will lead many of them to think again about the
unreasonable treatment of their health, so they may make a change in their way of life.
Overall, while I do believe that health is precious and managing to make it easy to for people to
protect their health is a compelling achievement, I think that those who do not protect themselves
should pay the price for their negligence.

Many people dream of live having a high standard of life living, by doing a highly paid and
secured jobs, and to get more respect in the community, so they are going to university more than in
the past. But comparatively, thelife has become more hectic due to more stress and responsibilities.
3. Because of overpopulation and a few incidents like ’ Global Recession Period’, resulting in a shortage
of general job vacancies, most people agree that it’s better to go to for university studies and
become a highly qualified person. As a result, one can not only get a high level job post but also earn
enough money in a short period (like Bank Executives) rather than spending their whole life on
minimum wages working as a less qualified person.and also The advance in techonology has
also had a great impact, replacing many people’s jobs especially
in the agricultural fields industry, realizing making/forcing/encouraging them (to) go for job-
related vocationalcourses by which they can do work faster and more effectively. For example, a
degree in Technology in Agriculture or Mechanical Engineering. course through university.
In my opinion, in proffessional jobs workers like doctors and lawyers are spending most
of their life period to being trained and before starting to work and managing to earn a higher income
with more respect. However, I think most of them are not able to cope with the job’s responsibility and
stress. In fact, there are so many universities which gives the opportunity to do online courses.
In conclusion, the advantages of going to university in order to get higher qualifications outweigh the
disadvantages. It has had an incredible impact in the progress of developing countries like India. In
addition, with theadvance in techonolgy, it’s possisble to share work or to do a job
from your/the computer, so that one can maintain a good work-life balance and avoid stress-induced
health problems.

4. In today's working world, it's difficult to find better jobs because of many high/stiff/fierce competitions.
Every company requires workers with a variety of skills. Some professionals develop their skills over a
considerable period of time and had have worked for many years. However, employers are not only
looking for experienced workers but also for the qualifications and the acquired skills in
dealing with new technologies nowadays.
In our technologically advanced society, things are constantly changing. This has a
positive advantage to effect on younger generations because they had have studied and learned
these new technologies. However, it can be challenging for an older mind to assimilate new
information for the advancement in the workplace. This can be a problem with senior workers who
lack knowledge of using computers like for example.
On the other hand, the advantage of being able to use the rich wisdom of the experienced senior
must not be underestimated. The senior worker, having spent so many years in the profession, would
have experienced every possible scenario in relation to his/her job. Like for example, when a problem
occurs, the young worker has no doesn’t have enough knowledge and it is the senior worker who will
give them advice and guidance. In addition, senior staff members provide stability in a company. They
add both stability and credibility in a company environment.
Although young workers have more knowledge with new technologies, the advantages of well skilled
senior staffs are also significant. They bring tremendous knowledge and experience to the workplace.
They also add stability to the company and greatly assist younger employees. Businesses and
companies will continue to benefit from the senior workers well into the future.

5. For the last (few) decades many people have got been getting a better income than they had before.
Moreover, in the same period, a lot of people have also had a reduction in how much time they spend
at work. Some reasearchs shows that people are less happy now than before, but on the other hand
there are also a lot who say they enjoy their lives.
The individualisation that has been going developing over the last 30-40 years has made people more
aware of their free time. In spite of an increase in available free time, some families use less time
together and this can have a bad impact on the family life. However, I think that a lot of people also
use this time to do exciting things together. In my work as a teacher I often see adults asking
permission for their kids to leave school for a week or two, because they want their family to be
together on a holiday.
Some of the leisure activities people are striving for to do can be a real cost for a family. In spite of
increasing wages some families can get the feeling of being poor, because of the ongoing strive for
something new. Expensive and long journeys can, for instance, be an example of this. matter.
It`s not easy to predict what will happen in the future, but there is one issue I will point at. Regarding
the climate, the global warming can could have a positive effect. For instance, the human
race could be forced to cut back onthe consumption. We might see a trend where people will
seek for the old values.
In conclusion, families balance their time between work and free time in different ways. Some families
fill their free time with more expensive leisure activities, while others put efforts in using make the
effort to use the time together. In my opinion I think the future will bring more of the latter.

6. The new technology is gradually destroying our culture and its components. It is the driving force
behind social change, imposing its own logic on the actors and their relations like use
of languages [not sure this is relevant here], transforming our traditional norms and values.
First of all, technology has abolished the social interaction between families, friends andthe society in
different ways. For instance, most people spend time indoors watching television and surfing
the internet. The use of advanced communication techniques like video cassettes as teaching aids,
instead of face to face community events, has also affected the society negatively. [the question is
about culture not really about relationships and communication]
In addition to that, our talent and culture is disappearing in the sense that we copy from
celebrities in on the internet and television. Culture determines the way in which individualsare
identified and recognised, therefore we are wiping out/away our specific values by external
behaviours inspired by foreign technology. I would also argue that we are not challenging our mental
and academic capabilities as we copy different lifestyles and their ideas, which means we are not
innovative.
The Appropriate measures could be imposed to link culture and technology.
This will wouldbring enhance the developments of our living standards, which include social, political
and cultural spheres. For instance, the use of media and communication to understand different
cultures and values. This could expand our horizons by looking at a wide range of cultural information.
In conclusion, the protection of cultural identity and reinforcing it are of vital importance. We could
accept the realities of the present world and protect our culture by the use of thenew technology.

Toolbox Exercise
Nowadays, international transport has become accessible and affordable. Travelling internationally
has become a sort of trend. Some travel for educational purposses, or bussiness and others do it just
7. for pleasure. Whatever the reason, there are people who objects with to it as they consider it as to be
patronizing consumerism, especially when it comes to learning about the world since others think that
mass media can do a lot as it's counterpart more effectively instead. [This essay will focus for and
against travelling internationally].
First of all, I believe that the best form of learning is "doing the actual thing". The same is true with
learning about the world. While It is true that with the advent of technology,
nowadays, by merely browsing the internet can provide you with information from abouthistory,
geography, culture and tradition of those people living in a certain country. In addition, there is no
doubt that mass media is cost-effective and quicker to use.
[new para]However, I would like to reiterate that nothing can compensate (the form of)learning about
a country better than the actual interaction with its people. Feeling the real environment and seeing it
yourself will provide you with an indepth understanding of the totallity of the place and will
substantiate whatever is fed by the media, which is limited. Thus, having been equipped
with a profound and absolute information, you can be an effective form of mass media yourself. So,
while it is a far more expensive form of learning, I would still urge the proper authorities to
consider this more on this. On the other hand, I would also suggest that they should send only a
selected few and they should be the right people, ensuring that the purpose of the travel has a
genuine goal and that those who were asked to do it should be dedicated and effective to disseminate
what has been learnt to further educate the people. [this sentence could be more concise]
In conclusion, travelling is inevitable and very essential as a part of learning, but can also be
compromised if there are other more important aspects to be given priority and if it will bring
enormous benefit to the country, [not very clear] otherwise indeed! it is advocating consumerism.

8. 1.1.1 Highford University - Sample
The Hartford Highford University carried out a survey on the goods and services purchased online by
some students pursuing courses in Arts, Business and the Sciences. On the whole, more students
undergoing courses in business purchase more things than the students of Arts and the Sciences.
Surprisingly, more Business Science students purchase computer equipment (about 82%), and books
(about 82%) when compared to the students of Arts and Sciences (about 78 percent) and computer
Equipment (about 65% Arts and 60% Sciences)
In computer games downloads, students of the Sciences top the list (about 55%) when compared
with the Business student (about 21%), and Arts students (about 30%).
As regards to the Music CD downloads and Video DVD downloads, the Arts students are leading, but
more business students really bought music CD downloads than the students of the sciences.
On books (did you mean to say Travel here?), the business courses students are still leading the Arts
and the Sciences students.
In conclusion, it is obvious that more Business courses students purchased goods and services than
the Arts and the Sciences students. The Arts students evidently love entertainment more than the
Sciences and Business students and they bought more DVDs and CDs.

The bar chart shows a survey result about the types of goods and services purchased on the
internet/online by students on three different courses, namely arts, science and business. on the
internet
As we can expect, study resources play an important role for all kinds of students. Over 80% of
business students bought books and computer equipment online, followed by approximately 75%
of students on the other two courses students for the former and 70% of science students and 60% of
art students for the latter. For arts students, music CDs and video DVDs downloads were their
favourite buys, with almost 90% and more than 70% purchasing them respectively. In comparison,
business students preferred to travel while science students were more interested in computer games
downloads. Both the arts and business students spent a minimum amount of money on computer
games, only 20% and 30% of them, respectively. And science students’ last choice was travel.
Overall, we can find out learn that basic study materials account for the major part of all student
purchases and the consuming pattern of students was influenced by the needs of the courses they
studied.

1.2.1 Public Transport - Sample
The bar charts illustrate the use of public transport in various parts of the world. Different countries
have different amounts of usage of public transport and the metro system.
To begin with, public transport in the USA has the smallest proportion (only 2%), whereas Japan has
the biggest one (46%). In addition, the UK has half the amount of transport use of Spain.
10. Moreover, the metro system in some of these countries and others vary. For instance, London’s metro
system carries the least number of passengers; 784 million in one year. However, the metro system
of Moscow takes the biggest number of people; 3184 million in one year. Furthermore, Seoul’s
metro spends one third the length spent by London’s metro, and it’s the smallest length compared to
the biggest one which is New York’s network of420 kilometres.
Overall, there are is a big large number of people using the metro system especially in Moscow. In
addition, public transport is much more used in Japan than anywhere else.

various students. While the line graph shows how the chosen course influenced on the students’
future life who graduated between 1992 and 2004 is shown by the line graph, the pie chart represents
the purpose of selecting a course.
The most popular reason (43%) was to improve the students’ employment status and the least
purpose was to socialise while socialising was the least popular at only 8%. The figure for the
students who chosen their course to fulfill their employer's needs was recorded twice as much high as
the number of students who chosen to migrate to a foriegn country at (12%).
In the second line graph, the figure for the highly satisfied students who were graduated between
1992 and 2000, had dropped every year reaching to lowest number 400 (for 2000 year graduates)
compare to 600 (for 1992 graduates) a low of 400 in 2000 compared to 600 in 1992. In this period the
figures were recorded exactly the opposite for the graduates who were very dissappointed.
11. However, for the following four years, the number of very satisfied graduates numbers had
risen rose slightly, with the highest figure recorded for students who graduated between 2002 and
2003 at approximately 700. In this period the figures for very dissatisfied students had declined

In 1962, the village was just plain there were no without any infrastrustures yet as well as or houses
and the place was quite boring and empty. However, in 1985, a leisure complex was built
and it started to have a housing estate beside it and a superstore to the north. A road from the north
to the east inside the village was also developed. Another road was built connecting from the city to
the village.
At present, the village has been extended and it has now developed into a suburb. A hotel has been
constructed at the center near the city of Fonton. From there, you can see a new station where people
can travel from the cityand going to the suburb. The place is now becoming busy and a new business
