The discussion revolves around the concept of "Quality Life," particularly in the context of an academic performance task related to energy innovations. Participants explore the meaning of the term and its relation to "Quality of Life," seeking clarity on how to approach the assignment.
Participants do not reach a consensus on the definition of "Quality Life," and multiple interpretations and approaches to understanding the term are presented. The discussion remains unresolved regarding a clear definition.
Participants note that the term "Quality Life" may be used in various contexts, and its meaning could depend on specific coursework or lessons that preceded the assignment.
It is in our performance task entitled "Energy Innovations", and the opening question is "what is a quality life and the factors that contribute to a quality life." and we have to evaluate the factors that relate to energy. We have to make a research paper but I don't have any Idea of a Quality Life. thanksSimon Bridge said:Welcome to PF;
Perhaps if you gave us some context ... where did you hear the term? Have you seen it used in a sentence?
in engineering I there is such thing as a "quality life cycle" for instance; however, the terms may be used in a non standard context where you heard them.
THANKS A LOT :D . I mean it. you really help me Sir. Thank YouSimon Bridge said:Sure - but that is not the only thing that has been said to you all year ... something must have preceded the task being set, like some lessons or lectures or some sort of coursework? It is unusual for new terminology to be introduced out of the blue.
However: it may be that finding out what "quality life" means is part of the assignment - this means we cannot hep you much.
If that is the case, then part of your task is to decide which of the many discussions of "quality life" you discover applies best to the subjectmatter of your course.
ie. try googling everything inside the square backets: ["quality life" energy innovations -of]
I see a lot of results related to sustainability and renewable energy.
Yeah. thank you for the answer :D.Tom.G said:This from Random House Kernerman Webster’s College Dictionary
"character [of something] with respect to grade of excellence or fineness"
The phrase "Quality of Life" would refer to the rating or value you would assign to your present life, such as 'good' (high quality) or 'poor' (low quality).
A "Quality Life", using the dictionary definition above, would be a life that compares well with a life of excellence or fineness. You would then be said to be enjoying a "High Quality of Life", a "Good Life", or a "Quality Life."
I hope this helps. I found this a difficult concept to try explaining.
wow ! thank you so much sir :D I will also share this "subtracting" thing to my classmates so that they can also finish our performance task.Simon Bridge said:No worries.
more generally: google will sometimes associate a search term with other common words ... you saw this with "quality+life" vs "quality+of+life" since the latter is more common in websites.
You can exclude a word from search results by "subtracting" it in the search terms, which is the "-of" part
Thank a lot sir ! Commended :D heheheSimon Bridge said:There is quite a lot to googling more effectively.
