As I reflect back on this class, I realize that is has positively impacted my life in a way that I never thought it would have. I have learned more about myself during this class, than I have in any other class to date. In chapter 1 the parts I like were, understanding the culture of higher education, and becoming an active learner. These parts were significant because it taught me that in order to understand college, I had to learn what it was.…
Owen, You, Dr. Tan, and I had a meeting. We talked about your progress during this term. You agreed that you need to work more on your classes, and promised to come and work on them here. During this week, you have been working in Achieve every day. You have been working on catching up with all your assignments.…
I would like to thank my instructor for going through each assignment instructions and making the corrections. I can apply what I learned in the discussion board to my job as…
8.11.12: It was reported to me by a student that Miss. Gomes placed him in a seat at the front of the room facing the wall were he could not see the board. He told me that when he moved to see she told him to not look at the board and could he not hear. After speaking with Mrs. Gomes she told me she did place him at the desk by the wall but he did not need to see the board she was just talking to the class. I contacted mom and let her know of the situation and that we would be keeping an eye on…
On the Tuesday of presentation week, we began compiling our final presentation. We decided to piece together the final product on my school account. Both Josefeth and Reyna had sent me their work, and the only part of the assignment missing was Kevin's, who had not shown up to class. When we asked Kevin for his part of the presentation, he gave numerous excuses for not having completed any of his assigned work. Because we were all going to suffer as a result of his decision to not do any work, I took it upon myself to complete his entire section of…
The first day of English 101 I was unsure what to expect. As a running start student, college was foreign and daunting. Over the quarter, this definitely changed as I became more comfortable with the college environment and assignments. My worries for this class quickly dissipated over the first week or so once I knew it wasn’t that drastic a change. After receiving the assignment calendar, I felt ready for the classwork.…
Short Term 12 was a very interesting movie. It had hints of being realistic, but with aspects where you knew it was a movie. It’s about a group of workers who work in a foster care residential facility setting. The main character, Grace, deals with her own personal struggles while she supervises the children at the facility. I have a short bit of experience at a facility like Short Term 12 in some aspects; I can see where parts of the movie are realistic and where are some are an exaggeration because it is a movie.…
The work is all sorted out that all you need to do is read the directions and do it. Señor Lynch gives you until the end of class to finish the class work and he never gives you homework. If you slack on doing the work you…
Before taking SGST 200 class, I had a very narrow view of sexualities and gender’s problems, but I was fine with that for such a long time. Even when I decide to take this class, I wasn’t expecting to change or have a whole new view of problems like racism, sexism, and homophobia. In SGST200, I learned that there is nothing wrong with being different from others, we should be proud of ourselves and be respectful to others. We can’t change the biological diversity; everyone is different since they are born and they have rights to choose what they want to be.…
Good morning, I apologize for my unacceptable work. I will make note of what you have told me and be certain to adhere closer to your instruction on all future assignments. Would you like for me to consider your critique, review what I have done and resubmit the assignment? Thank you, Jacob Thurston…
Last year I became Vice President of Student Organization of Latinos (S.O.L). Before S.O.L the only club I had been a part of was Heath Occupation Students of America (H.O.S.A) a Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO). Becoming Vice President of S.O.L was something novel to me, I had no experience being a co-leader of any club but I wanted to try something new and was willing to give it my all. I knew it was going to be a challenge because S.O.L was only being established at our school and it was the club’s first year.…
Today at Simulation Lab I performed health history on a patient. Firstly, I commenced by preparing myself for the interview. Although I was nervous, as a nurse I had to be confident and prepare myself mentally and kept an open mind to meet the patient. In addition to preparing myself, I prepared the environment, making sure seating and arrangement was in place and the room was comfortable and private. Having done this, I utilized Florence Nightingale’s theory of environmental need.…
The lessons the workshop taught the children that went through it was invaluable. We hope that we as adults show our children learn from us the mistakes of the past and treat people equally. A lot of times unfortunately people have stigmata’s either put on them by society because of how they look or they put them on themselves and people treat them differently. The lessons that this workshop teaches are lessons that everyone should have. You can spend our entire life trying to instill the values in your children that this class does in two days, and I want my children to be kind to people as we all do; I do not want them to ALIENATE someone because they are not the same as them, different ETHNITICIY or part of a MINORITY GROUP.…
The concepts delivered throughout the management problem-solving course have provided me with valuable simulated real-life experiences which can be applied in my everyday work life as a HR Administrator with aspirations of progressing my career. The course delivery was such that as a student, I was able to use my existing knowledge and skills, in addition to that of my peers, to analyse and explore complex organisational problems. This course has challenged the way I think and deepened my understanding of the problem-solving process, which has enabled me to perceive issues from new perspectives, I once would not have considered. Additionally, it has also allowed me to make explicit and authentic connections between the course content and my…
Having the opportunity to talk with Anne was amazing, she has such an immense insight into the special education system especially with Anne going through the system as a student herself. During the interview, we were able to gain a unique perspective on the education system while asking our questions. Anne was able to explain the difficulties going through school, although we, as future special educators, have worked with these students and have heard the horror stories of how peers act in school it was completely different to hear these stories first hand. She told her story going through school and how she was bullied because of her differences with her classmates and how they made her feel in school. Having negative experiences with her…
