Upon asking my Grammy to be my interviewee for this final project, I was relatively apprehensive- questioning if I have ever even said the word sex in front of her. A few hours after Thanksgiving lunch, I tried to bite the bullet as casually as possible, “by the way, Grammy, could I interview you for one of my history classes, I have to write a paper on a conversation?” “Sure”, she replied, “about what?” “It’s actually supposed to be your opinion about the Sexual Revolution and your experiences in it, it’s no big deal”, I quickly added. “Sure honey, I don’t know how helpful I’ll be though, I must have slept through that,” she wittily answered.
Going into the conversation I then thought it would not only be awkward but maybe even inapplicable; yet, after we talked I came to realize that awake or asleep, my Grandmother had in fact witnessed some dramatic and seemingly revolutionary changes throughout her life. Throughout our interview to particularly have lots to say about the changes she has observed in family dynamics, dating and courtship and sexual identity. Afterwards, I am actually very glad that we got to share similarities, differences and observations about our lives together, our talk helped me further contextualize a lot of information relevant to this class and also discover something about her narrative that was unique to those described in class. My Grammy painted her perspective to be one separate of something that could be sexual or a revolution, much less a

VeriType is developing software that will improve the billing process for physicians. The software is developed to help make the billing process easier, more accurate, efficient, and compliant with the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA). HCFA monitors billing practices compliance with government regulations. Fines imposed for noncompliance with HCFA guidelines can reach up to $10,000 per claim. This along with other inefficiencies in the billing process can cost physicians a lot of money. (Moot Corp, 2013)
This example serves to prove that the longstanding social values system of Amerasian parents, despite having old world views and values from back in the day, cannot necessarily be used to solve or understand the changing complexities, demands and requirements of society in western hemisphere and the individual personal choices (and even sexual ones) made by their children who live by altered standards and norms in today’s post-modern world. HOM seems to think that Ms Lee has what Alvin Toffler coined future shock and coping skills problem is evidenced by Lee saying: “I didn’t accept it for a long time. I didn’t think that she would come in the open like that”. I thought that she would just keep it and later get married”.

Art is one aspect of the past that has carried on for decades. Art in any form may it be poetry, novels, and playwright, sculpting as well as painting, has been an outlet for generations and continues to be an outlet and a means for expression.

Each woman’s acceptance and candid nature of her sexuality is unexpected in her respective world. From Puritan England to now, both societies perpetuate shaming and silence towards women having sex whether it be out of wedlock or just casual sex. Acknowledging the female sexuality in such a manner as P!nk’s
As I am entering into the final semester of my MLS studies I have the desire to gain more working knowledge of various library types and their practices. I would like to secure a practicum that will enable me the opportunity to gain practical hands on experience in a special library. Though this experience is not required for completion of my MLS degree I feel that the knowledge gained from this practicum placement will be invaluable. It will help create a more well-rounded and versatile professional base to draw from as I continue in the library profession.
These last five weeks in EXP 105 has really helped me learn a lot about learning in general, and also it has helped me to understand myself as a learner. If I had to explain the concept of learning to someone who has not yet taken this class, I would tell them that it is simply knowing who you are as learner and knowing what are your intentions are when it comes to learning.
On September 6, 2017, I were documented for an incident that involved a University Housing policy violation. I was charged with violating the University Housing Alcohol 1.2 policy. With my violation, came consequences. I met with The Residence Conduct Coordinator to discuss my actions and came to the conclusion that I would have to schedule a meeting with The Campus Alcohol and Drug Education Center (CADEC) and with that, a reflection paper.
This past two week were most dedicated to the final project, but we also had a guest speaker from the biomedical engineering. We get feedback for our design decision matrix and for our second project report.
The third and final assignment that I think is honors level work is my end of the year research paper. For this assignment, every student in the class was given a piece of paper which had a list of topics that were dealing with different topics about Africa. The one that I choose was on conflict diamonds in Africa. The first reason I picked this is the process that I went through to create this paper. The first step to creating this paper is by starting my research. I started my research by researching the topic for the first three days, pulling any information for reliable sources. The next day, I organized the information that I had search into 5 subtopics. Then the next class we had I handed in my outline where I received feedback, After that week,we had 2 weeks to
Every fourth-year teacher trainees will have to conduct practicum and will work under the guideline of their associate teachers and supervisors. The purpose of doing the practicum are to put training into practice, to become accustomed to teaching in the tertiary school settings, and to develop and expand each trainee’s teaching expertise and confidence. In the following paragraph, I will express what I have learnt from doing practicum to reflect on my past teaching strengths and weaknesses from the teaching practicum.
Over the course of the semester, I have been fortunate enough to work with a student who is having difficulties when it comes to reading. My student does not have difficulties when it comes to hearing a word, but rather when he sees a word. My student has definitely benefited from one on one work with me as well as the additional help he’s getting from the reading specialist during their WIN (what I need) time. My student does not like to read because he knows that he is struggling and he is embarrassed about it. When my student goes to his WIN time, he does really well because the instruction is at his level and there are only two other students who are also on the same level there as well. Besides the current intervention, programs I would recommend are Direct Instruction: Reading Mastery, Letter Spacing, Wilson Reading System and the Lindamood program (LiPS).
As Mr. Wolcott had lent a hand in the budding of my mother 's yellow roses, so was Mrs. Wolcott involved in the budding of my sexuality. Her son was my age, and was in my kindergarten class. Mrs. Wolcott had so generously volunteered her time assisting in arts and crafts and field trips to farm and pumpkin patch alike. On the last day of kindergarten she hugged me, and I was afforded a few glorious seconds to savor her perfume and the softness of her breast. Whatever nostalgia there is to be had in these memories, of course, is now tainted with the vague
Since the beginning of the semester, my writing has changed and evolved to accommodate and sustain longer essays. With longer essays, there is more room for in-depth analysis. Further analyzing a topic has led me to findings that I did not know existed. As I continue to write, I uncover addition and superior methods to approach my writing to the benefit of me and therefore, my audience. Throughout the semester, I have incorporated techniques to further my narrative throughout my writing.
