APA Reflection Paper

When assessing and completing, “The Readiness for Physical Activity”, I found that for the PAR-Q questions I answered “No” to all seven questions. Similarly, when it came to the Physical Readiness for Sports or Vigorous Training, I once again answered “No” on all five of the questions. Therefore, based on these results there are a couple of conclusions and implications for me to acknowledge. For instance, since I answered “No” to all of the Par-Q questions, it’s safe to say that I can start becoming much more physically active without needing to talk to my doctor before doing so. In addition to that, I now understand that I should take part in a fitness appraisal so I can determine my basic fitness and thus plan out the best way to incorporate

In Honors English III, Mrs. Bryce assigned the class a research project. Although we were allowed to work in groups, all of the writing portions were expected to be done individually. We were allowed do to research on any topic that we wanted. Unlike most papers we had written, this paper would be written in APA format. Some of the work would be done in class, such as the Introduction and Literature Review. However, most of it was expected to be done outside of school. Some additional requirements was that we had a minimum of three data collection sources and three findings from them.

I’m not going to lie to everyone, writing is not my favorite thing to do in life. In fact, I’m looking forward to my last class for my bachelor’s degree and my last essay or paper to complete said bachelor’s degree. I cannot pinpoint whether my discord with writing is attributed to a lack of ideas flowing in my head, or the inability to translate my ideas to paper. With that being said, I started this class with a basic knowledge of the APA writing style and I’d like to say I had an intermediate level of understanding of grammar. After these past eight weeks of Writing 101, I now can easily setup and build an efficient APA essay and I’ve learned how to conform to the APA writing style’s reference page.

I share the same concerns on my writing as you. The APA guidelines are a continuing source of learning of rime. It is a goal of mine to master the APA guidelines. Regarding the course writing assignments I appreciate the Rubics. It serves as a map for me when I am completing my writing assignments. The Rubic also helps with the flow of my papers. When I am writing my assignments I approach my paper as a puzzle and allow the Rubics to serve as my guide. It is easier and less complicated for me to research, write and compile my paper. It may sound a little off but the process works for me. The information in the APA writing guide is extremely helpful. I am able to answer questions regarding my writing by referring the APA writing guide (APA,

The AP English course is a difficult and time-consuming course that requires dedication and persistence. AP English has a large course load compared too high school and I feel with persistence and dedication the work will be challenging and rewording. Advice to help with the amount of reading material is to take your time when reading and don’t rush find key details in the text and underlining details.

I intend to pursue a degree in the medical field. Upon undertaking a job in the medical field, numerous college professors will require you to grasp how to write APA style. APA stands for the American Physiological Association and is generally used in social sciences. All through during high school MLA has been stressed as the major style of writing, assuming APA will be difficult to write is outside of my jurisdiction. MLA and APA have several similarities. Both text styles are double spaced, must include either a “references” or “work cited” page, and anything that is not original must be cited. In contrast, papers written in APA and MLA will have an evident difference in appearance. APA always requires a title page

All the four students gave me feedback which all had a different perspective regarding my paper and that was very important as it allowed me to see my paper very deep. I used the feedback I got from my peer and changed my first draft, including the format of my paper to APA. The feedback also indirectly helped me to learn more about APA format.

Overall, I believe I have benefited from taking this course. I am thankful for the writing assignments which exposed me to APA writing and citation. Likewise, I became more effective at researching, the reading of, and paraphrasing journal articles. I felt that adequate time was given for class assignments. Likewise, the power points were very helpful while reading the chapters from my textbook. It was helpful that paper assignments lined up with current reading in the textbook. I liked the fact that discussion boards were not the only way we interacted with classroom content. The example papers were a big help when completing writing assignments. Finally, the things I will always remember from this course was the positive feedback

Yes, I do know an APRN. Her function is to diagnose and treat patients in the cardiovascular wellness clinic. She is in the cardiovascular wellness specialty clinic. My exposure to APRNs are that they work mostly in the office setting, and some work in the hospital inpatient settings. APRNs practice in collaboration with an assigned physician with formal written documentations that describes the agreement between the APRN and the assigned physician. They collaborate in gathering information about a patient’s medical history, consult in regards to the treatment plans, and refer for additional evaluations and treatments as needed.

Learning to assess students can be likened to a choreographed dance routine, where practice makes perfect! After spending the past five weeks educating myself about, administering and fine tuning my `practice` of the Woodcock Johnson VI (WJ IV ACH), I believe that I have a stronger understanding of what makes it an unique assessment tool. What stands out for me about the test is that it offers numerous ways to identify a student’s academic strengths and challenges. This in turn, can help direct the needed intervention. I will summarize some of my thoughts about the WJ IV ACH by focusing on my initial experiences and analysis of three of the four comprehensive portions: reading, mathematics, and writing. I will conclude my summary by sharing

In the APA case study paper, I wrote about “A student body President sent home for wearing this outfit”. I took all the information from the article and created an outline. I had two partners revise and edit the paper. My weakness was that I had some bad word choices and had trouble putting the paragraphs together. My strengths were writing and putting together the sentences.

This week’s assignment of paraphrasing over 230 words of wisdom has proven to be a challenge but also proved to be a great benefit towards my rusty skills of writing. It was a challenge in that I had to figure out how to paraphrase with less than 100 words. There was so much that I could expound on but I had to stay focused on the task at hand. However, after summarizing the passage into 100 words, I realized just how much thought and time it takes to truly grasp and honor someone else’s work within my own words.

It’s always sad to watch the semester go. You get into this routine everyday and it becomes your life. When the semester ends you get a break which is great but then you’re thrown into a whole new routine with new people. I, myself, am a very awkward person and I’m never too keen on talking to people I don’t know. It makes it hard for me to be okay with new routines, I’d rather just keep everything the same. My best interpretation of my writing would be this: I don’t know how to change up my routine. This is seen very clearly through all my essays. However, I’d like to focus on my three essays The Youngest of Five, Band Practice, and Liar, Liar.

I decided to go into teaching after a mission trip I took to Haiti during my senior year of high school. I loved interacting with the children and getting to know each of them. After that, I decided to be a teacher and make a difference in the lives of young students. I did not know where I was going to go to school but I knew I wanted to work with young children. My cousin was the one that discovered Winthrop University. I looked at the teaching program they offered and I was very pleased with what I found. I considered studying Family and Consumer Sciences before finally deciding on a Bachelor’s in Early Childhood Education. Currently, I am a rising junior at Winthrop and I feel like I have learned so much already. I have enjoyed all of

I have had hardships and there are events that have shaped me into being who I am today. My parents went through a very difficult time from 2003-2010 and during that time I was forced to care for and shape my younger brother into a decent, gentlemanly individual, this was difficult not only because I was so young (three years old to ten) but because my younger brother has terrets. My parents were always trying their best to coping with a tragic loss to really give my brother and I the time and attention craved for. I of course completely understand now why they struggled so much but I am disappointed that I was never really allowed to be a child, my life so far has just been about taking care of my younger brother, making sure that he has
