Comp II Reflection

This simulation experience allowed me to practice my focused assessment skills, delegation of tasks, prioritization on of tasks, interdisciplinary communication skills, and skills that I have not been able to participate in such as blood administration. I learned that my strengths are patient education, delegation, noticing changes in patient condition, and working as a member of a team. I need to improve my speed of completing tasks, my confidence, and my process of working through new skills.

To be perfectly honest my recollection of Comp 121 is a little foggy, i took the course roughly a year and a half ago and during my first semester and it was one of my first college level courses. From what i can recall it was a interesting and enjoyable, The professor Jacob Sherlock is no longer with the school, but was a professional writer along with a life-long lover and student of the written word. We regularly discussed current events and the class wide give and take of various ideas and viewpoints was truly enlightening and are easily amongst my most enjoyable and memorable college experiences. In particular i vibrantly recall a passionate debate on gun-control which was to be frank, dominated by a extremely Conservative former Army

The submitted final lesson plan for Session 5 contained many of the key elements of the best practices for developing effective online learning. Nonetheless, the development of the lesson plan integrated the learning discoveries based on the idea of applying it to a blended American Sign Language course. The lesson plan utilized the implementation of newly adopted Signing Naturally (Smith, Lentz, & Mikos, 2008) course curriculum, which I integrated into my proposed blended ASL 101 course. Using the knowledge of the importance of consistency, communication, and community the plan demonstrates a variety of online tools found within the Blackboard LMS that supports these three components for an efficient and effective online blended course. From

While the theme of ENGL 105 with Dr. Rowland is What We Do When We Read, I found the course’s effect on my writing to be the most beneficial result of taking this course. I learned how to formulate and transcribe an argument in an efficient manner. This is not to say that I did not also enjoy learning about various topics relating to the mental phenomena that occur when I read literature.

CPSW did supervised visit for Mr. Stark on October 14th, October 18th, and October 27th. Ms. Mauer attended each supervised visit with her child Kaison and she has been very interactive and affectionate with her child Kasion. Currently, Ms. Mauer has been offered supervised visits by the FITS twice a week for two hours. FITS worker reported that Ms. Mauer is engaged and interactive with her child. Ms. Mauer had supervised visit with Kaison on November 1th, November 3th, November 8th, November 10th, and November 15th and all visit went well. The worker reported that Ms. Mauer participated each session and has not missed any supervised visits.

In preparing to work with my client I reviewed the goals I had set from the first SIM: Caring for a client with mental health challenges. I felt that working with this client would require a large component of relations practice. I prepared myself with curiosity and understanding that it could be more challenging to develop a nurse-client relationship when in which my client would feel comfortable enough to share factors that had and were currently influencing his health experience. I also want to prepare myself of a situation that would be new to me. I had never worked with a client whom had tried to take their life. I wanted ensure I would give my client time for him to share his experience and feel that his caregiver was listening to

Everyone is likely to experience some form of discrimination or prejudice; as is anyone capable of acting prejudiced towards others. On April 5th, 1968, a teacher in Riceville, Iowa named Jane Elliot conducted an experiment with her third grade class that dealt with the concept of discrimination; and was documented in Peters’ 1985 ‘A Class Divided’. The exercise originally took place the day after Martin Luther King was assassinated. The documentary is an eye opener to the world of racism and discrimination. Bucher (2010) describes racism as “discrimination based on the belief that one race is superior to another” (97). According to Bucher (2010) “discrimination is defined as the

I thought, “There are not that many papers. This should be my easiest English class so far!” and I happily put all of the due dates into my agenda. There was a time close to the end of the first week where I realized how hard this class might actually be. A few hours before I needed to be at work I submitted my rough draft paper early. Every ten minutes I was checking my submission on the discussion board to make sure that I could make any changes that needed to be done before the due date that night. This was the first time that I was completely unconfident in myself on whether or not I had written a quality paper, or even did it

This week was starting off great. I barely had any homework at all. This changed on Wednesday when I walked into english and sat down. I love english class, so I didn’t really mind my teacher, Ms. Barber, giving us a project to do. We had recently finished Romeo and Juliet, and have spent a day talking about it. When the sheet came around with our options on what we could do, I read through it. I found what I wanted to do, a complete scene rewrite however we wanted. When I went home that day, I had no clue how I wanted to rewrite the scene’s dialogue. I sat at home, just trying to figure out what I would want to do for the rewrite. My thoughts were spinning around in my head. I shot down my ideas faster than I was making new ones.

During my first semester here at Stout I learned lot in all my classes but especially in my Composition 1 class. As I did not have the greatest English teachers in the past this semester was very helpful to me. Not only was I able to expand my composition skills but also how to think and develop my writing even further. I could apply these new skills in my speech class as well and it gave me a better help when preparing and presenting my speeches.

Working on my project for the ITP-2i, the time allowed for working on the project, I allowed myself two days four hours each day in the afternoon. I thought it was possible to finish in two days. I reread the instructions, turned out; I was still in the middle of performing the project. Which I notice that now needed a lot of work because I did not completely read all the instruction.

1. No matter how hard we try to prepare ourselves for challenging experiences and try to stay positive, it becomes harder to do than planned when the time comes. It was the end of the last semester and I was on the verge of emotional depression that totally overwhelmed me. During the exam period, I wasted my weekends on the Internet, chatting and Facebook-ing. I needed to submit an important paper on Tuesday morning. On Sunday night, after wasting so much time of mine and having a little red eyes because of so much exposure to electronic screens, I sat down to write my paper. Only then did I realize that the paper was due the next morning, not on Tuesday. I was extremely nervous because it was too little a time to finish it. Moreover, I was so angry with myself that I wanted to cry. It was a realization that I was off course in my study habits and that I had not overcome my habit of willingly putting myself in difficult positions. The more I thought about being in that mess, the angrier I got with myself. I got even angrier thinking about how it was not the first time in my life that I put myself in such a situation. I could not concentrate on my paper because of that emotional response. Then suddenly I thought that I just needed to talk to someone and calm down. I called my classmate and just told her about everything. She said that the instructor had actually extended the deadline until Thursday. It was such a relief. I thanked her profusely and decided

This paper is a reflection on three simulations as each relates to strategic planning. The first simulation, “Thinking Strategically,” highlights the importance of environmental scanning. The second simulation, “Developing Grand Strategies,” challenged decisions made for a company which lead to effective strategy formulation and choices. The third simulation, “Creating a Strategic Road Map,” provided a simulated experience of how to build a strategic roadmap focusing on the importance and effectiveness of formulating action plans and goals. This reflective approach will convey the lessons learned relative to the importance and effectiveness of the key learning points obtained through each simulation. The challenges faced by strategic

Before school started this year, I participated in the Common Ground program as a ground crew member. During the weeklong event, I had the opportunity to not only introduce the incoming freshmen to Fremont, but to each other as well. Each day consisted of various activities, led by myself, the other ground crew members, and the adult facilitators of the program. The activities included multiple small group discussions that were focused on breaking down stereotypes in order to make the Fremont community more tolerant, as well as games meant to allow for the freshmen to discuss issues such as gender, friendship, and ethnicity. My tasks varied from introducing students with common interests to each other to make sure everyone had someone to sit
