Capstone Reflection Report

Throughout my Senior Capstone project, I have learned many things about myself and the people that I worked with to make my project a success. Working with the elderly residents at the assisted living facility opened my eyes and I viewed things with a different perspective. Going into the project, I did not know what to expect with the residents, but towards the end, the residents knew me so well and had inspired. My favorite part about this project was the opportunity to interact with new people and know what they live their daily lives like. Being able to be around them gave me the chance to talk and listen to stories about their lives. They were also welcoming to any stories that I could relate to and always listened intently to my stories.

In English 101 there are several aspects of writing that I did not get to explore in high school. In this class we were given freedom to write our stories without harsh guidelines that twisted our creativity. I have learned how to absorb information and transfer it to paper in a style to keep readers engaged. I am able to reflect on my writing process and critique my problems. This class has given me skills that I can put into practice in the future.

Throughout my high school experience english classes were presented with very strict guidelines. They provided us with rubrics and prompts, laying out exactly what they wanted us to turn in. Telling us what the essay had to be about, how the thesis had to direct connect and answer the question and how much context from the story we needed. There was not ever creative assignments and writing about personal experience, just reflecting on text from class.

This week I learn about Internet Safety. Doug discusses ways you can help students to use the Internet safety and make sure they are not on any inappropriate websites. Some of my colleagues had opinions how they think having parents on their social media websites were inappropriate and some of my colleagues said how it was not inappropriate. My opinion about social media is that everything should be appropriate there should be no reason why you have the parents on your Instagram page whether you are hiding something or not. I believe if you want to have connected with parents it should be face to face communication, telephone, or an email. In the future, I would even prefer to use Voice Thread with my parents and students.

My overall experience in Practicum 3 was a good and an enriching one. It was an eye opening experience on the general on goings of a secondary school in Quebec. Not only I learnt immensely about the high school culture but also about the challenging task of management of teenagers. I worked and learnt how to cooperate with my cooperating teacher, supply teachers, students and school staff. From the constructive feedback, observations and suggestions from my cooperating teacher and supply teachers, I adapted and tried to improve to give my best for good pedagogical practices. A particularly serious classroom management issue made my experience in high school quite challenging. With respect to all the practicums, I felt better prepared for Practicum III and yet, I had many questions pertaining the role of a teacher. I did question of what I was doing wrong or was I fit for teaching at all. The Discussion Forum available in one of our classes in the BEALS program was a significant resource for better understanding and guidance in such an issue. I have learnt my lessons that questioning is a good exercising

Led the Implementation of the Rooty Hill High School BYOD Program and Digital Curriculum Platforms across 8 Faculties (ICT4Me Program). I established administration systems for the provision and implementation of 300 school owned devices and 450 Students owned device within the school. I have developed whole school professional learning seminars and mentored faculties and individual teachers in embedding Google apps for Education into their lesson design and KLA programs through innovative assessment and content delivery. I have led a Professional learning team consisting of 25 teachers in action learning regarding the integration of technology into the classroom. . This has translated into 100% of teacher receiving targeted professional learning

I think my writing has improved a lot Since working on journals. Since learning from my english instructor I have learned and remembered many knew things. First as an old writer, i did not think much about writing skills that you need in papers period. For example Like commas i would hardly ever use them because i did not understand what the punctuation was really used for, not only did i not use commas but i never capitalize the letter i when referring to my self In writings. Journal writing really has help me in understanding my mistakes and helping me grow in my writing skills. For the most part i have learned how to think of good topics thats works with me, and how I can come up with lots of ideas quickly. Second writing journals has

This semester in English 102 has been the most my writing has ever grown from one class. I have learned a lot different things about styles of writing and different types of essays. I liked how the class was based on a lot of “Why?” questions that really made you think. That made for a very interesting class each day.

This year, I am a part of the AMS First Year Intern Council. Having enjoyed my time as an Intern for the Queen’s Journal as well as learning more about the AMS and its services, I am very interested to continue my involvement with the AMS. Thus, when this year’s Generation’s Committee Chair talked about her position at one of the AMS First Year Intern meetings, I became very interested to learn more about this program. Due to my past involvement as well as my passion to serve seniors, I strongly connected with this committee’s aim of incorporating Kingston’s seniors into the Queen’s community as well supporting them through outreach programs.

I interned at Orange Lake Resort, a Holiday Inn property with over 5,000 available rooms for rent catering to a wide variety of guests ranging from rentals, timeshare owners, and marketing to name a few. Throughout my internship I’ve not only grown into a more competent employee but as into an industry professional as well.

I agree with you; this course helps us to reflect and recollect everything we have learned to put it into application. I wish the capstone class was once we completed Data Acquisition and Analysis, Managerial Finance, and Marketing and Brand Management. These courses would have been helpful for those who chose option 2 (business plan).

As I prepare myself for my capstone presentation and paper, I look back on how challenging and rewarding this experience at the department has been. I chose this particular case for my capstone because it really outlines one of the core values in the code of ethics and speaks to the positive work that the department does. Although there are six core values, I always stress the importance of human relationships. I was able to build a strong relationship with my clients and this was essential in the helping process. It is also very critical that the department was able to help strengthen this family. Mom and dad were able to work together with grandmother and the department to get their baby back. Over school vacation, my clients were reunified
