Going to the field away from the classes was not just important as a necessity but also important towards exposing my personality and training me while preparing me to the work expected in the outside world after college degree. This attachment report aims at giving the feedback to my awesome school, The University of Nairobi, College of Agriculture and Veterinary Sciences. The report aims at addressing the importance of field attachment to the life of a student according to my personal view, the structure and organization of my place of attachment, my experience at the place of attachment, knowledge and skills obtained at the site of attachment as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the site of attachment. The report will also acknowledge the very important people that made my industrial attachment and the submission of this report successful. Most importantly, the report will address the SWOT analysis of the site for the attachment.
School leadership and management in private school has of late become a major focus

in the globe. The question as to why most private schools perform better than their public
counterparts has been associated with the difference in the kind of leadership and
management in both cases. An effective leadership in private schools is what motivates
students to work harder and smarter thus a better performance. In addition, private schools
run on their own leadership, probably its director and other capable leaders unlike in public
schools where in most cases the government has to be consulted before carrying out any
activity. Public schools are also receiving more students than private schools especially in the
third world countries because either the parents do not have enough for private school
education or they want a cheaper school. Considering the trends, private school teachers in
most countries are paid better than their public counterparts. This might be a trigger for the
better performance. However, with all these good characteristics of private schools, quality
leadership and management are what drives it all. This paper aims at critically examining the
notion of effective educational quality, leadership and management and assessment of the
effectiveness of leadership and management in private schools (UNESCO, 2016).

a single individual called Steve Jobs. Jobs and his friend Steve Wozniak were sharp school
dropouts with very intelligent and innovative minds. In those days, the two were living in the
Silicon Valley (Rawlinson, 2016). During this time, the two were working for Hewlett
Packard and this they started at the basement of Steve Job’s family home. The establishment
of Apple Inc. was officially done on 1st April, 1976 by Ronald Wayne, Steve Wozniak and
Steve Jobs with an aim of selling the Apple I PC kit. At its establishment, both Jobs and
Wozniak had a 45% company ownership each while Wayne the remaining 10%. Wayne
however, inasmuch as he was already old in business, decided to quit and sell his shares to
both Jobs and Wozniak for $800 only (Rawlinson, 2016). This, it is said, that would he have
continued, he would be owning a share worth over 3 billion dollars but now that’s past. Just

on evolution and other aspects in anthropology. Some of the studies that has been done and
are recorded in some of these sources are that there is a relationship between brain size, body
mass and life history and for each parameter how they are related in humans, apes and other
primates. Past sources of anthropological data suggests that human being are the most
intelligent of all primates. This has been proven true in many cases with the faster growth of
technology. Considering the human life history, one notices that the human brain has been
developing from the Early Stone Age to the present Late Stone Age of Homo Sapiens
Sapiens. Each stage has proven to have a difference in body mass, brain size and life history.
If one had to compare between the apes, that are believed to have been the earlier stages of
humans, one could conclude that the present humans have a larger body mass and a bigger
brain size. There is also an observation that with increase in body mass, there is always an
increase in age at first reproduction, maximum lifespan as well as their brain size in
comparison with other primates.
We had a study whereby we investigated the relationship between brain size, body mass and
life history and how each of these variables are related in humans, apes and other primates.
We also had a study on how humans perform in emotional intelligence compared to other
apes. In this project, we investigated how and when the human-like pattern of large brains,
long growth periods and long maximum lifespans evolved by examining and estimating these
traits in fossil hominins. We did this because it is an important parameter to consider in
human and other primates study in anthropology. It help researchers in better understanding
how the primates relate to each other.

program for the year 2017. Earlier this year, it established a policy that would allow more
than 300, 000 new immigrants to the country. This is an equivalent of only 1% in percentage
unit conversion. This high number has resulted to a number of mixed reactions as some are
for the policy by the government while others against the government policy on this issue.
Generally, in this coming year 2017, the government may welcome about 320, 000
immigrants with only a few expected to be economic immigrants while majority are refugees.
Could it be that as the government takes this step, its aim is to increase the labour force in
Canada? This was a brave step so as to speak that the Canadian government took. The policy,
according to some reactions, will result to increase in crime rates in Canada, increase in
poverty to some families (although very minimal), reduce unskilled wage and lower quality
of services among other disadvantages. It is important to note however, that the advantages of
this policy outweighs the disadvantages and that instead of criticizing the government for
bringing up the number, the people should be thankful to the government for portraying a big
heart that is ready to help not just its citizens but also the international communities that are
affected. According to the statement by the Immigration Minister McCallum, about 160,000
of the total immigrants are expected to be economic immigrants, that is, professionals or
skilled workers that Canada as a nation covets. This means that the percentage for the
economic immigrants has gone down and this according to Mr McCallum, is to allow for
more room for accommodation of more refugees. He goes ahead to outlining the significance
of this sudden and significant shift as that aimed at reuniting more families, upholding the
humanitarian traditions of Canada, offer protection to those in need, settle refugees as well as
building the economy among other reasons. In support to the decision by the government, this
number and rate of admission of new immigrants should be at 300, 000 and above

of goods and services. They are the ones responsible for overseeing the activities of their
workers, hiring new employees, training as well as evaluating each of them. They also ensure
that each department sets its own goals in each financial year and meats their financial goals.
A special and commonly recognisable group of managers, the departmental managers like
myself, also have the responsibility of developing and implementing budgets, preparation of
reports for the senior management and also ensuring that each department complies with the
policies put in place by the company they manage. They have the role of ensuring that each
worker is supplied with the resources required to enable them perform their duties and meet
their targets in time. The above few roles, however, depend on the size of the company. For
instance, in a smaller company, the production manager is able to perform the duties by
herself while in a bigger company, the production manager selects groups with group leaders
to help them work with him. Managers also play an important role in accessing the
performance of the company or each department against the business plans and goals. In most
instances, some business managers like myself perform human resource activities like taking
disciplinary actions to employees who fail to play by the rules, hiring and performance
evaluation of each employee in their departments. Importantly, business managers also offers
solutions to different challenges that may arise in the companies they lead.

must have been very long. Upon this belief, no one is certainly sure about how and when
exactly it began as there is none that witnessed it. However, to answer this question of origin
of life, different scientists have come up with their own theories among which three are
considered the main ones. The first, also considered to be the oldest is that which suggests
that there is a supernatural being or force behind the existence of life on earth. This theory is
mostly used by different religions and cultures and has for many years been passed from one
generation to the other. The second and common theory suggests that life began from another
world and then later on it was transferred to the earth as in the case of meteors or comets. The
third main theory which is the commonly used one in the scientific world is that the earth
began about 3.5 billion years ago due to a complex series of chemical reactions involving
from carbon element. From the scientific theory, three major hypotheses have been
formulated, which include the Oparin-Haldane hypothesis, Miller-Urey hypothesis and RNA
world hypothesis. While some scientists support the RNA world hypothesis, others have
taken a stand on the metabolism first hypothesis (Choi, 2016). This paper discusses at length
these hypotheses and how the first biological molecules and cells arise.

buying a home and renting one. However, the cost of buying a house are more complicated
and varied than the cost for renting. This dilemma is what makes it hard to tell which among
the two the better deal is. Most investors are getting into the housing market and this
indicates how profitable it is especially to the economy of the United States of America. Take
for instance the housing market crash of 2007-2008 that is recorded till date as the worst
housing crush in the history of the United States of America Grace (2011). If this were not
corrected in time, according to the experts, it would have led to another depression like the
Great Depression. Having looked at the importance of the housing Market to the economy,
what were the factors that led to the 2007-8 crush and how was it neutralized are important
questions for investors in this field to ask themselves (Grace, 2011).

Each nation experiences its own economic challenges. To some extent, these economic challenges has been as a result of poor economic policies put in place by those previously in higher positions in ensuring the running of the economy of a country. As a result of this crisis, the US is for instance no longer producing what it requires to sustain its citizens. In addition, the
government has failed to take necessary precautions on predatory foreign trade practices and
that’s why the world is witnessing an injury in the US economy caused by the China
currency. It however, is not too late for the government to take necessary precautions with an
aim of correcting such serious economic issues caused by the economic policies already in
place and that need to be addressed by taking necessary steps in correcting them.
According to Cook (2016), such economic policies that require being addressed in the US by
its government include; the weak US macro economy, failure of the fiscal stimulus,
enactment of financial service reforms, enactment of the health care laws and the carbon
pricing implosion among other economic policy issues (Cook, 2016).

According to Bayram and Bilgel (2008) the high rates of anxiety, depression, and stress
among students at the university level have major implications with psychological morbidity
that adversely affect the students’ health, educational attainment, career development, and
quality of life. This study focusses on establishing how prevalent is depression, anxiety, and
stress among university students in the UK. The study was done in Roehampton University
with 200 participating students using Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS). The DASS
questionnaires were administered to the participating students with their informed consent
after which the responses were entered into an excel spreadsheet and excel statistical analysis
tools used to analyse the data. While previous studies focussed more on the mental health
problems in students, this study focussed more on how depression, anxiety, and stress related
to mental health in the university students and the prevalence levels. This study found out that
Depression, Anxiety, and Stress relate to mental health and established a number of factors
such as BMI, Fat%, Age, Ethnicity, and Gender that influence the prevalence levels of the
students to DAS.

remaining at the top is a real work. It requires unique and top quality ideas and innovations in order for one to maintain the lead. Samsung has since 2011 been able to maintain the top because of the innovative strategies that they have brought in place. This paper aims at discussing some of the unique strategies used by Samsung Electronics that has made them prosper in the world of electronics.

Knowledge of how the internet is able to communicate with internet users is a mystery to some people. ITP plays a major role in the in the current world of contemporary technology.
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), or what is sometimes simply used to refer to IP
(Internet Protocol), is the basic unit or language for communication on the internet. This can also be applied to the private internet, like Ethernet and so on. Despite TCP and IP being used interchangeably, there is a slight difference between the two in relation to the roles they play and that is, that IP is directly responsible for obtaining internet addresses and then it is the work of TCP to deliver the data obtained to the addresses obtained by IP. The paper aims at explaining how TCP/IP operates.

must have been very long. Upon this belief, no one is certainly sure about how and when
exactly it began as there is none that witnessed it. However, to answer this question of origin
of life, different scientists have come up with their own theories among which three are
considered the main ones. The first, also considered to be the oldest is that which suggests
that there is a supernatural being or force behind the existence of life on earth. This theory is
mostly used by different religions and cultures and has for many years been passed from one
generation to the other. The second and common theory suggests that life began from another
world and then later on it was transferred to the earth as in the case of meteors or comets. The
third main theory which is the commonly used one in the scientific world is that the earth
began about 3.5 billion years ago due to a complex series of chemical reactions involving
from carbon element. From the scientific theory, three major hypotheses have been
formulated, which include the Oparin-Haldane hypothesis, Miller-Urey hypothesis and RNA
world hypothesis. While some scientists support the RNA world hypothesis, others have
taken a stand on the metabolism first hypothesis (Choi, 2016). This paper discusses at length
these hypotheses and how the first biological molecules and cells arise.
buying a home and renting one. However, the cost of buying a house are more complicated
and varied than the cost for renting. This dilemma is what makes it hard to tell which among
the two the better deal is. Most investors are getting into the housing market and this
indicates how profitable it is especially to the economy of the United States of America. Take
for instance the housing market crash of 2007-2008 that is recorded till date as the worst
housing crush in the history of the United States of America Grace (2011). If this were not
corrected in time, according to the experts, it would have led to another depression like the
Great Depression. Having looked at the importance of the housing Market to the economy,
what were the factors that led to the 2007-8 crush and how was it neutralized are important
questions for investors in this field to ask themselves (Grace, 2011).
government has failed to take necessary precautions on predatory foreign trade practices and
that’s why the world is witnessing an injury in the US economy caused by the China
currency. It however, is not too late for the government to take necessary precautions with an
aim of correcting such serious economic issues caused by the economic policies already in
place and that need to be addressed by taking necessary steps in correcting them.
According to Cook (2016), such economic policies that require being addressed in the US by
its government include; the weak US macro economy, failure of the fiscal stimulus,
enactment of financial service reforms, enactment of the health care laws and the carbon
pricing implosion among other economic policy issues (Cook, 2016).
According to Bayram and Bilgel (2008) the high rates of anxiety, depression, and stress
among students at the university level have major implications with psychological morbidity
that adversely affect the students’ health, educational attainment, career development, and
quality of life. This study focusses on establishing how prevalent is depression, anxiety, and
stress among university students in the UK. The study was done in Roehampton University
with 200 participating students using Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS). The DASS
questionnaires were administered to the participating students with their informed consent
after which the responses were entered into an excel spreadsheet and excel statistical analysis
tools used to analyse the data. While previous studies focussed more on the mental health
problems in students, this study focussed more on how depression, anxiety, and stress related
to mental health in the university students and the prevalence levels. This study found out that
Depression, Anxiety, and Stress relate to mental health and established a number of factors
such as BMI, Fat%, Age, Ethnicity, and Gender that influence the prevalence levels of the
students to DAS.
remaining at the top is a real work. It requires unique and top quality ideas and innovations in order for one to maintain the lead. Samsung has since 2011 been able to maintain the top because of the innovative strategies that they have brought in place. This paper aims at discussing some of the unique strategies used by Samsung Electronics that has made them prosper in the world of electronics.
Knowledge of how the internet is able to communicate with internet users is a mystery to some people. ITP plays a major role in the in the current world of contemporary technology.
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), or what is sometimes simply used to refer to IP
(Internet Protocol), is the basic unit or language for communication on the internet. This can also be applied to the private internet, like Ethernet and so on. Despite TCP and IP being used interchangeably, there is a slight difference between the two in relation to the roles they play and that is, that IP is directly responsible for obtaining internet addresses and then it is the work of TCP to deliver the data obtained to the addresses obtained by IP. The paper aims at explaining how TCP/IP operates.
