When it came to picking classes, for the most part I just looked to see what goal areas I needed to cover for my generals and found a class under the goal areas that sounded, somewhat interesting to me. After narrowing it down to a few classes under each goal area this class, for me in particular sounded not only the most interesting but, it sounded like a good class to take for my future occupation of wanting to become a Social Worker. Coming into this course I did not know what to expect and have never taken a class like it before so I was excited to see what it was all about. I had the basic knowledge that we learned throughout High School about unequal rights, slavery and how some slaves became free through the underground railroad but never in full depth like I wish it would have been. I learned so many …show more content…
I am so glad I got the privilege to go to as many of the events as my schedule would allow me too. Each event gave me a little more information that I did not know previously which made it so much better to listen to the new information. I think personally I would of attended these events even if the extra credit was not there because if you are really interested in something why not do all you can to improve your knowledge on a subject.
For this course I believe I deserve an A. My reasoning being, I never misses a single class even though we got some freebies I was always in my spot on time ready to learn. I wrote every reaction paper to my best ability, although my test scores were not outstanding I did put the work in outside of class when it came to reading and making flashcards to memorize key dates or people. I also went to the diversity events for extra credit and wrote the reaction papers on those events also. I believe that I put in all the work I could have for this course to do my best and that is why I believe I deserve an
As a practicing teaching, it is responsibility to create and maintain a safe and supportive learning environment for students. Whilst on professional experience at a local school in Cairns, I taught a series of lessons (artefact 4) for a year 8 Health and Physical Education class. In order to effectively teach each lesson, I had to manage the classroom activities and challenging behaviours. I used the ten micro-skills for classroom management to not only manage students’ behaviour but also ensure inclusive student participation and engagement.
This unit does not introduce much new material. Instead, we expect you to integrate technical and theoretical knowledge acquired from study across your degree. We refer to two frameworks that may support you in carrying out this integration:
I will not get an A, and I know that it is my fault. I should have work harder, I should have focus more on my lesson and homework, I shouldn’t wait until the last minus to finish assignments. Also, I should learn how to use time effectively. Those are experiences that I have learn about myself. The other thing which is more important is that I knew what I want to do in the future. Thanks to the assignments such as Career profile assignment, College comparison assignment, and
This essay is a reflective essay on my learning development from a young age through to my current position as a University Student. I will be relating my learning development back to two theories of human development, Vygotstsky’s socio-cultural theory and Marcia’s version of Erikson’s theory of identity development. I will identify and discuss the challenge I have faced with my identity and how this has impacted on my development.

The dreaded English 102. Could this be my final English course in my career as a student? I don’t know for sure. I still need to decide what my major will be in. There is something that I know for sure, that is, needing to take this class to move on. I am not certain how my time in this class will go, but I plan to work hard to get the best grade that I can. Hence, I have decided to get this out of the way now, I look to fine-tune my writing skills, and I expect this course to help me understand my writing style.
This is a reflective essay based on a event which took place in a hospital setting. The aim of this essay is to explore how members of the Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) worked together and communicate with each other to achieve the best patients outcome.
I was standing again; my friend shook her head at me. I didn’t care. I was in the back and the teacher didn’t mind. I sat all day and for now I would stand with excitement and worry making my mouth dry and my hands unable to stay still. Making me unable to stay still.
I worked hard to read and submit class assignment on time. I made sure to go beyond the limit combining what I had been thought and my own understanding of issues to do my assignments. I had to properly read lecture notes and make researches in order to keep up with the challenging demands of the course. The course featured regular submission of detailed and well written assignment most of the time. It was a tough class that needed time and hard work. Though hard work, I was able to submit every assignment as requested. I did my best with the questions as required of me.
The initial attempt which I gave at clearing the WST exam was quite an exuberant experience. A confident me wrote an excellent piece which was all according to me nothing but excellent. But a drastic result of having a non-competent essay came as a shocking result. Thus, while taking this class I hoped to improve my writing skills not only to be good in general writing but also hone my skills in presenting ideas as a graduate student. The course structure defined in this class not only helped me improved my writing skills but expanded my horizon to the different aspects of writing which was initially all unknown to me. This writing class helped me improve my understanding of a thesis
Caring and support the first protective factor in the resiliency wheel stated the most important way to provide that is how you talk to yourself. I always tell the students I work with how powerful positive self-talk can be and that having positive thoughts can actually change your frame of mind and attitude. So one would think that I would follow through with positive self-talk, yet I tend to be a very hard on myself, inner critic. I do though when starting to feel anxious in certain situations that I will use self-talk, which helps me to feel calm.
“Be a reflective teacher. Honestly look at what you do from time to time. Evaluate the purpose of your role as a teacher.” (Robert John Meenham, 2011)
Since beginning to write papers in English class, I have had countless successes and failures. While many of my English classes have taught me how to improve my writing, I have not learned very much in others. My most recent English class was last year, my sophomore year. My class was particularly undersized; therefore, it gave each student the opportunity to have additional individual attention. Throughout the class I experienced high points, weaknesses, and even difficulties that I never overcame. Overall, my writing skills improved, but only marginally.
As I have before, I want to open this reflection by commenting on how much quality, worthwhile experience I am getting through my time in the middle school classroom. I have observed many different times, and at many different grade levels, but never have I spent as much time as I have this semester with one single teacher and class. I have been able to make genuine connections with the students, and I have witnessed valuable instruction and classroom management from the teacher. Having spent so much time with one single class, I have been given the opportunity to truly see the structure and format of the class in a way that I haven’t been able to in past experiences. The time I am spending in the 5th grade classroom is teaching me invaluable skills, techniques, and methods for making a middle school class run as efficiently as possible.
