FINAL EXAM PREPARATION -2

OBJECTIVE QUESTIONS

Many questions from Student presentation ppt and doc. Keshav, please enlist the cooperation of ALL students to prepare a folder of ALL presentations both ppt and doc by names and a separate folder with all the pictures by source camera, for distribution to ALL STUDENTS and to ME. Failure and delay in this means your chance to score in this section will be jeopardized.

SUBJECTIVE QUESTIONS (PRACTICE)

1. Explain how intrinsic values and deep ecology principles are being used in biodiversity conservation in Nepal so far and point out these ethical conservation principles can be further used in Nepal for greater and more effective biodiversity protection.

2. What do you understand by Uncertainty in Biodiversity Conservation? Explain your answers with examples from Millennium Assessment for Biodiversity Synthesis?

HINTS:

For answering long questions (20 marks each), you should demonstrate the familiarity of the subject. This means you have read all the materials on that topic, not just 1 page summary, or few page powerpoint handouts but the full document ( e.g. Millenium Ecosystem Assessment, Biodiversity Synthesis, above,) alongside my class lectures so you know what is more important than others; be able to explain the key concept with specific examples discussed in class, field, or your own project work.

So quote and allude to as many related publications to show that you have been reading all the MUST READ ASSIGNMENTs and that you understand these, by being able to pick out key concept and applications, and then arrange the essay in a nice narrative flow.

Remember the essays should be at least 5 page long for 20 marks questions, so your detailed knowledge of the topic, organization and presentation will be graded, not what argument you support or reject.

Since you are all Masters students, the expertise is within you all so use lateral learning by writing up these drafts and exchanging with your friends for comments on improvement such as including all relevant details, making sure the presentation is understandable etc. DO NOT CONSULT ME!

YOU CAN EXPECT MORE SUCH HINTS AND SOME REAL QUESTIONS INCLUDED IN THESE BLOGS.

ENJOY LEARNING!!!!! ART
