During the first Study Skills Workshop, we learned countless lessons for college like, "Anytime you don 't complete an assignment it 's considered a failure" or "If you don 't have a clear reason to pursue something, you 'll never be motivated and determined enough to complete it," however I find myself believing the most important piece of advice given was: "Your attitude not your aptitude will determine your altitude." Because it can be easily applied to both your success in school and in real…

Although I had failed to thoroughly look through the DSM-V correctly enough to answer some of these questions in part. I believe it is a predictor of how limited my knowledge in this area really is. After watching the Barkley video and despite all my training thus far, I realize now somewhat disappointedly, that my perceptions of individuals with ADHD might have been far more similar to that of the uneducated person. I have spent so much time and effort understanding autism that I failed to…

I completed my field placement observations at Fulton Elementary School located in the Highland Park area in the Pittsburgh Public school district. Students in kindergarten and fourth grade receive Itinerant and pullout instructional services from Mr. Harris. Mr. Harris provides direct services and collaborative-consultative services to help support the individual learning goals and objectives for students in the general education setting (Raver, 2009). As a special education teacher, Mr.…

think better and I felt smarter and I could focus way better, but it wasn’t enough. I started to figure out that the way I was studying and interacting with other people was not the correct way, so I figured out a different way. I started to use flashcards instead of just referring to my notes and that really changed the outlook of things. Also I started to tell myself to think before I speak and that helped me with my social skills. Another effect of my condition is that when I need to…

“The true direction of the development of thinking is not from the individual to the social, but from the social to the individual” (Vygotsky, n.d.) Within Vygotsky's sociocultural theory he believed that the two most important concepts were zone of proximal development and scaffolding. Between these two concepts the child will gain knowledge from someone with more experience and education. Using the Sociocultural theory I will explain how zone of proximal development and scaffolding shaped my…

Exercise 2.1 If I add my tuition, cost of books, supplies, gas to get to and from class, and my MacBook for one semester it totals to about $5,050. If I divide that total by the total number of hours I will be in class, which is 92, I get $55. It will cost me $55 per class day to attend college next semester. $55 may not seem like a lot of money here and there, but everyday for 16 weeks it begins to add up. A total of $5,050, is a lot of money and I make sure to get use out of every penny. I…

Through the understanding of the structure of the atom, scientist were able to isolate system of electrons and atomic nucleus. The atomic part of physics is primarily concerned with the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus and the processes by which the arrangements was changed. Atomic theory has affected the field of physics in a way that has given scientist knowledge on how to produce an atomic bomb. Scientists has differentiated between atomic physics that deals with the atom as a…

Data Collection Procedure: In order to conduct this study, each student was provided a consent form to be signed by their parents and a demographic questionnaire (Appendices A&B ), which revealed that they had no prior exposure to the French language, and that all “of them had lived and studied Spanish in a Spanish-speaking country for a period ranging from” (Achard & Niemer, 2004, p.21), five to ten years. Additionally, the questionnaire revealed that the participants have been in the United…

Introduction Throughout the Spring 2016 semester, students were expected to volunteer at the Oasis Católico Santa Rafaela tutoring program, which located in a primarily Hispanic community with the goal of serving its local residents by tutoring children to put them on the same educational footing as native English speakers. During this volunteer work, I was exposed to challenges that I was wholly unaware of in a community that is far more underserved than I realized. I will discuss what I…

I also started doing flashcards on quizlet and this website really helped because if there is several games to make stating easier entertaining. Little by little I started seeing that it wasn’t so hard after all, all these good studying programs online helped me a lot. One day…
