Hello, I am Trevor Alexander. If you would ask my friends to summarize me they would say I am a medium height boy that is loving, always in the outdoors, someone that can sell you on a product that you are pretty sure you do not need, that also loves animals, and has a strong work ethic. When I was born my parents named me Trevor. At the time Trevor was not a common name. Since I am such an inspirational person, many others also decided to name their son Trevor. I have the privilege of being an…

On March 24th I taught a social studies lesson to a 4th grade class. The lesson started out well with me telling the students at the beginning of the lesson what we would be doing during our social studies lesson. However, I noticed I did not elaborate on my expectations for learning, so it wasn’t clear what the students were expected to know by the end of the lesson.

The first few times I ignored her negativity because who does not complain once in a while? However, she always had…

Kennedy 's ENG 111 class, I have been pushed way beyond my limits of capabilities. Before in high school, I had no idea what a rhetorical analysis was. But here it turns out to the normality. Normally, we would just read a book and then answer questions based on said book. We also had only used citation once if lucky prior to the senior project. But there wasn 't much need for detail. But nevertheless, without my experience here at RCC, I would have never known the amount of stress and anxiety…

But, when push comes to shove Machiavelli composes valuable points. Being feared or loved, avoid hate, and being a ruler, are points Machiavelli makes which, resonates with me.

of theorist and researchers has calculated using the summative scaling, where the variables summed were not exposed by the hour. Another particular theorist who used a scale method was known as Carlson. His scale survey method consisted of very few questions and his scale was a fairly small four point scale.

I came up with one of the first 12 questions which probably now to my memory was “What are your goals for the future?”. I voiced my concerns over asking her if she was married or have children because she might have gone through a bad divorce thus had her children taken away from her. Plus, I also told them with that I feel like that is not what you want to ask someone you don’t know never met.
