A group discussion is a method used by Institutions/Organizations to gauge whether the candidate possesses the group or team skills that they desire in its members or employees. It is a very useful skill to master. This course discusses about the dos’ and don’ts’ alongside the types of GDs and the types of participants, required in a debate. It teaches some useful nuances on how to develop ability to connect, reach a logical conclusion and lead a group. Soft skills are more important than domain knowledge; EQ is much more influential than IQ .

When you first think of the words “nuclear energy”, you may imagine the end of the world; nukes exploding everything, dangerous gases and chemicals filling our air. But, nuclear energy could be the exact opposite. With its power, we could potentially clean the air from OUR CO2 emissions. It would also provide clean energy that would not harm nearby environments. For now, we are not quite sure how to use the byproducts, but that is a concern that can be dealt with. When compared to other sources of energy, it is easy to see nuclear energy is the best option. This paper compares other sources of energy to nuclear energy.

This is a reading review with questions that are based on Nuclear Energy.
