Education › Re: Checkout 300 Level Questions At University Of Portharcourt by naturalwaves: 1:19pm On Jul 11, 2023

As a structural engineer, I still insist that one needs to gets a proper understanding of manual calculations before even using any software.

Yes I agree that these softwares makes things easier and faster, but there has to be a window of checks to have that balance between the actual and the generated.

I have done designs for clients where manual calculation sheets were requested by the clients. Now how do you produce these calculations when you don't have the theoretical background?
I agree with you as humans would be the one to automate the process. You cannot give what you don't have. Asking for an automation solves two things :
1. A knowledge of the theory
2. Advanced knowledge of the logic.


Away from all these, Nigerian university education needs a serious revamping.

Well, from engineering point of view, one needs to know how to manually obtain certain quantities due to the fact that computer is garbage in garbage out (GIGO). In other words, how can one verify the output of a computer programme if he or she doesn't know how to obtain such output manually? And then you wonder why buildings are collapsing every day in Lagos.
The logic of the program will be tested when it is written . We all know that they do not even do all these things . It is just to calculate and calculate. Like I said, the world has moved on . There is no big deal about the calculations that it requires serious verification. Give me the formula, let me automate one of them for you.

Only if you were in Electronic Engineering. Those little questions you are seeing if properly answered are enough to write text book. Lol
I get your view but these sort of testing is not good .
I teach and if this set of questions is subject to analysis , it will fail. How can Nigeria progress with this level of academic testing? No mentally challenging question nor deep thinking question. Why ask someone to calculate useless things when a computer program can simply be written to automate those calculations. The world has moved beyond all these kind of manual things. What's the point in calculating all these manually when a model or program can be written and developed to provide these figures irrespective of the variables?

The questions are so simple though. What level is this. I think they're watery. This should be for 100 level, right ? Questions only test knowledge domain. Draw this, draw that, calculate this, find this. With just the right formulas , any serious student will trash those with a sound A. Also, the time alloted to the questions was not shown. There may be enough time.
Edit: I just saw it is for 300 level. In that case, question doesn't appear to be standard .

Sad for you, they've scaled the first huddle into the next round. Tada grin
Sad for me?
This comment was made after they scaled. I am aware we are in the next round. I will let you know when we have been taken to where we belong.

I watched the game and I must say that the Nigerian team is not good enough. Nigerian young teams have lost that flair we used to know. Players lack flexibility. Long range passing is terrible( One of the most terrible I have seen ). Although we won, it is obvious that most of the players were selected through the back door.

I do not see this team going far.

If you go to China, and pay a jobless tech worker $50 and he will create this phone for you.

C.E.O of redmi dey use iPhone 14
Davido brand ambassador ifinix dey use iPhone
Olamide brand ambassador itel dey use iPhone
Gateman for Tecno headquarters office dey use iPhone 12

These phones are so worthless in China
They can't sell in in Europe or America

So they flood them into Nigeria market
And our mumu just dey show like 3D
Anything China dump for here
See as Nigerians dey rush am

No wonder they release new junk every week and Nigerians will still pay.

China make una chop these foolish Africans. 200k for this plastic junk lipsrsealed
Don't give false information online. Xiaomi is a global brand and there is no evidence that the CEO uses an iPhone.

You are a very dull person.

I'm very sure you don't know the purpose of an ambulance.

Please before you quote me stupidly, use your phone and educate yourself on the purpose of an Ambulance.

Imagine the gibberish you just typed as comment. Kai. True true Nigerians deserve the politicians they get.

Please,

1. Where will the victim/patient lay?

2. Where will the EMS officer stay to manage the patient/victim?

3. The terrain you are talking about, does it include swampy areas? If you have rode in a Keke on such roads, what does the keke rider tell you when he's unable to move?

4. What's the speed of a Keke as regards a very serious case?
You see that you're the foolish one. See the picture here. It is a creative idea to manage a village healthcare system. You and your cohorts should have taken time to make some research before spewing trash.

Thank you all for trying. The answer is 27, I figured it out. The numbers are 1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7
This does not make sense bro because
1x 4x 2 x 8 x 5 x 7 cannot give you 6(1x 4x 8x 5x7).
So, your solution is wrong.

0 is the only sensible answer.

I need your help. I have been trying to figure out the solution but I couldn't.
If abcdef= 6(abcdef),
The only condition that can make this true is if all the unknowns = 0

I. E a =0, b=0, c=0 ,d=0, f= 0.
Thus,
a+b+c+d+e+f = 0
Answer =0.

Bro you can’t have a single source of income In abroad don’t be deceived, life is always about choice , it might work for you and doesn’t work for another person
Okay
Why can't you have a single source ?
Is it because you won't be able to meet up with bills and all if you have a single source ?

You can work as bank just like nurses and doctors. Generally, regular salary is poor in UK public sector. You augment your wages with locum or ubgo full locum.
I want to believe most of u guys talking negative don't live in UK and really don't understand the system.
Being a teacher in UK if 100 times far better than in Nigeria.
You can even from UK move to Dubai or Australia where the pay is better once u established in the teaching career.
28k remuneration is poor bro.....in my books.

Let's say £1k for monthly expenses.
£1300 is 100% better when compared to Nija
Okay o
Got a potential offer of around 20k to 25k pay early this year around Portsmouth. Turned it down after looking for houses and seeing the cost alone.

You are right, Luton has some pretty shitty schools.
As someone who has been an insider, I am largely in agreement with what you have written here. cool

Still, I think anyone contemplating a teaching career in the UK needs to come prepared.
I have counselled not a few broken souls whose mental health was shot, after a stint in the profession, during my time.
May God save us.

We are not talking about side jobs. The person he referenced talked strictly about his salary. ....and what year was that to even start with?

You will take Hyundai to the service centre should anything happen. Not a big deal. I've had a close family member drive Accent for 8 straight years with no issue whatsoever. The cars are generally reliable.
