Radio Park school trip

I had a great time being with kids because I love to deal and communicate with them. All my life I wanted to be a teacher for little children. When I went to the Radio Park school, I really enjoyed the time I spent with the children. We read a story for them, Sang the Frozen song, listen to them reading their own stories, and play LEGO. It was a great experience to me, and it was something that I wanted to do before because that school is my daughter's school, and I don't have time to volunteer or participate in any event since I am busy with  the IECP. However, this trip gave me the chance to be with kindergarten's students.

I had a good experience in my country  when my son was in kindergarten I participated onetime in one of my son's classes. I read a book for them, and I spent the whole day playing with them. In my country, Saudi Arabia, we have different education system . Boys and girls study together in kindergarten, whereas they are separated in school.

I have some advices for the IECP students who will to the same trip in future. First, they should spend a whole day with children because the time went so fast there. second, they have to give them simple gifts to remember them.

Need A Parking Space? Look In Your Hand


            In the NPR article “Need A Parking Space? Look In Your Hand”(2011), Richard Gonzales focuses on the SFpark app by discussing how finding parking is a problem that people face on everyday life, especially in big cities.  The city of San Francisco has a new technology to solve this problem. SFpark is a smart phone app that shows available parking places and the cost of the parking. There are two advantages of SFpark app. The first advantage is there are sensors to show the driver if there is an available parking in the area. The second advantage of the app is to reduce the demand in certain areas by rising the prices of those parking.  There are other cities that have used this technology too, such as Los Anglos and Fort Worth. Although there are great advantages, there is a serious disadvantage that using the app will distract the drivers from looking at the road and this will lead to many problems. City officials are trying to decrease the risk by encouraging and advising drivers to look to the app before they drive.
