Breaking Away Reflection

I give this movie a six out of five-star rating. How it managed to keep me on the edge of my seat the entire time is beyond me; I am still in disbelief that I was fully engaged for the entire two hours and twenty-six minutes. Although I had heard many great things about the novel, the film exceeded all of my expectations. The Natural teaches many valuable lessons about perseverance, determination, commitment, karma, relationships, and staying young at heart.

I have shadowed two physicians during my pre-medical years. These experiences have significantly shaped the type of physician I want to be in the future. Not in the sense of a medical specialty, but rather in the sense of demonstrating a clear compassion and understanding for my patients.

Dave Eggers is a victim of circumstance, his life flipped upside down by the tragedy of his parent’s deaths, leaving him to raise his younger brother Toph to the best of his ability. Dave, going through this traumatic event in his early twenties, doesn’t have the opportunities that most people his age have to be young and carefree because he was forced to assume a parental role. This misfortunate, heartbreaking story is something that one simply cannot help but sympathize with, and what we learn in part III of the novel is that Dave knows that. He uses it to shape himself, to form his identity, and the way he responds to people and situations. By doing this, he creates a shield which makes him untouchable. Since people feel sorry for

Reflection is a major factor in "developing self-awareness" to improve services provided to everyone around me, this is to develop my own understanding in realising the good and bad made previously. Moving forward with a better understanding, as well as rectifying the mistake whilst recognizing the good points, (Horton-Deutsch and Sherwood, 2008).

As a poor Asian who ventured out of a dominantly white, small town, I understand the consequences of being a minority. This is how my passion to serve the underserved originated, and why I have partnered with service organizations such as Berea Buddies and AmeriCorps. Being a member of these empathetic communities has deepened my gratitude for how beautifully diverse our world is and for all people regardless of the challenges they face. For example, upon entering my service year to mentor children in D.C. public schools, I was told by almost everyone that there is no helping those children because of the family and monetary problems they encounter. Their responses reminded me of the comments I heard when I decided my life after high-school.

This semester I learned a lot about writing in English 151. It has been a roller coaster ride with these essays for me this semester. I learned step by step how to write a good essay and how to have your readers be engaged in what you’re trying to tell them. Each essay I did has taught me something valuable I can take to the next level of English. I feel as if as the semester went by I did not take my writing that seriously and that reflected in my grades I received in each essay. It made me a better student and writer and it will reflect next semester. In this essay, I will reflect on what I learned throughout this semester that you should apply in your writing when you begin English 151.

Communication is part of individual’s everyday life. The shadowing final exam for this course allowed me to explore a career I was interested in and study what communication skills the employee use daily. The person I shadowed on Wednesday March 28, 2018 was Mario Chaney, Manager of design at Wayne Sate University in the Marketing and Communication Department. Mr. Chaney is a Wayne State alumnus with a Bachelor of Fine Arts has a certificate of Web design from creative studies. He designs both print and web layout to promote Wayne State University. For example, registration pamphlet and housing brochure were a few of the projects he was working on for next fall “2018-2019”. The reason I chose to shadow Mr. Chaney is after participating in a workshop with him where I got to go through the process of crating a warrior strong poster I was intrigued how design be used to communicate a message to many students on campus.

For the last six weeks in both mental and acute setting, I have reflected on events that I had met in each week. Now, I am going to identify essential personal learning outcomes from those events and will include personal awareness of strengths and weaknesses. Among the different models of reflection, I will use the Gibbs model of reflection which entails six stages such as description, feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion, action plan.

Your summary was easy to follow and provided the overview I needed to understand the subject and main events. The positive economic incentive used to stimulate improvement failed, as it did not compensate for the gap left when America removed God from education. While most teachers would probably follow the guidelines of their administration and would understand the rational provided, the need to be compensated must have been stronger. I would recommend the school system consider an external review process and instituting feedback directly from the teachers and parents together to an impartial board.

As we begin to wrap up this semester, I reflect on all the learning and achievements I have obtained thus far in the program. Throughout this semester, my communication and relational capacity has grown, driving me to break out of my comfort shell. At the beginning of this year I had wrote a letter to myself, outlining three goals that I wanted to achieve. The three goals were: work with a palliative client, become more assertive, and to integrate family care into my practice. I began the semester off in acute care, on the medical floor. During the second part of the semester, I was assigned to be in the first group of students to start the Trail Outreach Nursing. My new placement has created a new goal of increasing my communication

When I first started experimenting with shadows I did not include a person as the subject. In order to add a personal and emotional element to my photos I decided to include a model. In concentration #1, I used a model and I wanted to create a unique shadow on her so I used a sushi roller mat which created the lines on her face. After this piece I realized I enjoy reflecting unique things on people so I continued with that strategy. Through this concentration process I tried multiple techniques in order to combine a person, shadow and reflection. With concentration #10, I tried to do something different and create my own reflection. I photoshopped trees onto the model’s arm. I thought this related to my concentration because it looked as if

While working on something it is hard to notice the progress that you have made. During all this semester I kept asking myself one and the same question: how is my writing improving? Now, after a year of persistent work and perfection of my writing skills, I can answer it. This course was really useful and it has helped me to improve not only my writing, but also my searching skills and the level of my language proficiency in general. Nevertheless, there are still some weak points waiting to be improved.

Five days per week, I spent 40 hours shadowing the chief of general surgery and the chief of internal medicine at a hospital in Hungary. I accompanied the doctors on their patient rounds, and I observed as the physicians interacted with patients with different needs. From this, I learned that patients want a doctor who cares about them as a human being, and not just another case to solve. Shadowing also gave me the opportunity to learn more about patients and their ailments, and to acquire skills such as how to examine patients MRI and CT scan. During this time, I gained a wealth of knowledge as the physicians shared experiences about their medical training and challenges they encountered.

Transitioning from a setting of required learning to one of voluntary participation enabled me to grow in directions as a student that I would not have deemed possible before I had enrolled in English 101. I have developed completely contrasting perspectives in regards to writing than I held at the beginning of the semester, the most notable one being; instead of striving to be the most knowledgeable writer in the classroom, I now wish to be the most persuasive. Through surpassing personal endeavors as a writer, I have developed the understanding that this was due to my will to understand the art of rhetor, establishing my argument through supporting facts, and appealing to the ethos, pathos, and logos of my audience. I grew as a student
