This Way Please

Process 1. Interview your partner to discover how your words and deeds influence his or her self-concept. Identify specific incidents to illustrate these influences, and discuss which specific parts of the self-concept you have affected. One way that I had an influence on her self-concepts is that I noticed her liking and passion towards the military and her passion for being a nurse. I kept complementing on her ability to work well with patients in the Psych ward during her clinical hours…

Deborah Brandt says sponsors “are any agents, local or distant, concrete or abstract, who enable, support, teach, model, as well as recruit, regulate, suppress, or withhold literacy—and gain advantage by it in some way” (166). Bob Gibson didn’t become a full-time teacher until he was in his mid-40s, and his experiences on that career path highlight both the benefits and the hindrances a sponsor can provide. Those experiences also demonstrate how integral a mixture of positive and negative…

Intake Form Critique I chose to critique the intake form that is utilized at my current job Third Way Center, as an opportunity to gain a better understanding of my agency’s intake process. Third Way Center is a treatment facility for at-risk youth who experience mental illness, homelessness or have undergone trauma. My position as a mental health counselor does not require me to conduct intake interviews with my clients, so I am very curious about the intake process. Usually it is the…

has the issue of child labor. There are children all ages who have to do extremely difficult work for very little pay. This is a huge problem in the world that most people just look past. For the people that child labor effects however, it makes life very difficult which is how it relates to globalization. Families who are less fortunate and have no other choice to do this work for minimal pay, usually have to have their children begin working as soon as they are capable of doing the work.…

anyone else’s views without being judgemental right away. I think I can say that everyone has gone through this at least one time in their lifespan. Sometime in their life where they automatically closed off one’s opinion because it was something that they did not agree upon. Whether it is caused by morally incorrect in their eyes or it is something that they are not accustomed to. I can say that this has happened to me multiple times where I had to evaluate…

evaluation is a systematic way of valuing a job in relation to the other positions in a company. It systematically compares jobs to establish their value for the purposes of determining the rational pay. Job evaluation should not be confused with job appraisal. Job appraisal is documentation and evaluation an employee’s job performance (Carpenter, Bauer, & Erdogan, 2009). In this case, Ted was justified in insisting that they evaluate the job and not the persons holding the job. This was because…

writer to all who read his books. This idea of pictures to help support book is shown very well in Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco’s book Days of Destruction Days of Revolt. Sacco, the one in charge of the illustration, does a fantastic job of presenting visuals to the story and helping show the true emotion of the oral history of the book. First of all, Sacco uses his illustration to tell the oral part of…

Besides their original intention to spread awareness of a product or celebrity, ads also have a hidden message. This hidden message is what has been secretly effecting the people of America, making them develop this self-hate, lower their self-esteem, and even develop phycological disorders. Because of this, ads need to change the images and message they are sending out. The way ads should do this is by using “average people”. More specifically, using people with the average weight for that…

of effort, determination, and a “can-do” attitude. In this way and more, I intend to transform the fashion industry, and much of this is conditioned by my commitment to philanthropy. I look fondly upon Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS, whose “One for One Program” funnels proceeds to children in need with each purchase. This unique business model exemplifies caritas in action, and demonstrates a commitment to the community which extends…

A student who struggles to read and understand poetry struggles all the way through Hell, Purgatory and Paradise, just to find a few tidbits of information. This process requires the reading of each Canto two to three times just to find a tidbit of imagery to even get a glimpse of what is happening in three different books. “Why do you let pretension sore so high, Being as it were but larvae – grubs that lack The finished form that shall be by and by?”2 (pp 146) Why is the student who is a…
