God Reflection

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).

The purpose of this assignment is to discuss the contribution of reflective practice for clinical nursing. Reflection has been defined as a way for individuals to “capture their experience, think about it, mull it over and evaluate” (Boud et al 1985: 19)

The coaching staff at Godby was extremely flexable anytime I had school work or an exam to study for they would allow me to either leave practice early or work on my assignments during practice as long as I have completed my daily task. The coaching staff was also very patient with me which was something I felt was important. They understood that I was new to their football system so they worked with me as I tried to learn the teams procedures, different plays and even getting to know the players better. They were also very mannarable when it came to me being the only women working around the program.

Advanced practice nursing (APN) can be loosely defined as an area of nursing in which nurses are required to practice at an advanced level in a specific area of interest. APN extends the boundaries of nursing’s scope of practice and contributes to nursing knowledge, and the development of the profession (Canadian Nurses Association, 2008). In order to become an APN, the nurse must obtain a master’s or doctoral degree from an accredited university in an area of concentration designated for advanced practice nursing. According to Joel (2009), there are currently four major groups of APNs: certified registered nurse anesthetist, certified nurse midwives, clinical nurse specialists, and nurse practitioners. APN focus on

Hello, my name is Godson Joseph I decided to take this class because I needed a historical, political or a Global perspective course as a requirement. My major is business administration and I am currently working towards my AA, I may transfer early to USC to continue my college education. Furthermore, I love football I am currently training five days a week so I can get a huge opportunity to play at the college level. But mainly I like sports, and video

I grew up in a Christian household. I’m very blessed and grateful that my parents introduced me to Jesus at a young age. Even though I didn’t really understand it all I know it was vitally important to who I am today. My parents always set a good example of how to always show love and care. As a child we went to a local church and I attended the kid’s programs. I also attended a private Christian school all the way up to the 5th grade when I transferred to a public school. I always was introduced to Jesus but never truly knew him. In my young age I thought of all of it basically as another school subject. When I was around 12 years old, I started going into the actual church service instead of the kid’s program and I would draw on a piece of paper instead of truly listening.

During my placement at Project Booyah, I found the 500 hours both a challenging and rewarding experience. Throughout my experience new knowledge and skills were gained as well as insight into looking at issues from a different perspective, ability to identify personal values clashes with organisational values and developing my self-awareness of these issues through critical reflection in which I found invaluable to my practice. Each of these areas will be discussed in more detail below, before discussing areas I have identified for further development.

Writing has always been one of my strengths, enabling me to freely express my creative thoughts in a controlled manner onto a piece of paper. Although my writing process takes a long time, I have complete power over the sentences and structures that I am weaving together to form a cohesive whole. Throughout High School, I was trained to write a structured essay in an ample amount of time by writing, editing, and finalizing my draft. Most of our work involved writing individual essays and research papers in which I developed a strong foundation in. However, I realized that I lacked experience in group work as well as oral communication in delivering my ideas to the audience. At the end of the semester, I noticed my transition from an

During the duration of this course and the numerous discussions initiated in lecture, I have been able to utilize the concepts proposed in class to further my intellectual development and thinking. While many concepts have been discussed in class, the topic of secondary witnessing was the one I could relate to the most. Just like Art Spiegelman, I am a second-generation witness to my father's life post-Vietnam war. I am a part of the generation that will continue to transmit my father's war stories to future generations. I am witness to the Vietnam war in terms of how it affected survivors, such as my father, even though I didn't live through that experience myself, tying in the concept of post-memory as well.

The story of Andre Trocme and the peoples of Le Chambon is a truly an inspiring given the fact that they helped harbor many Jews from being persecuted. They are truly inspiring because from a religious perspective they have lived a part of the Christian faith that many people never will and as result their story will probably be read to future generations of those who are seeking to live a more fulfilled Christian life. From this amazing yet dangerous story, I can regrettably say that I have never heard of these people or the actions they took to help harbor the dozens of lives of Jews. I think this is so because of several reasons including the very idea of religion not wanting to be taught by the

The purpose of this, my reflective essay, is to consider the journey I have taken to develop and create both the research story task and the story task. In the first task I was tasked to do an in-depth research on a topic that was trending or perceived as popular with a wide and varied audience. Accordingly, this would be a topic that could be seen to span a range of Social Media and established news sources. Then, in the second task, I was required to create a well-structured article based on the topic and crafted to meet the well-established journalistic standards of an established periodical, such as Time magazine. I now regret not adding an image to both support and establish the storyline. If

To be good at something, you must fail and learn from your mistakes. I know that writing essays is my weakest point when it comes to scholar work. I tend to want to finish my work as fast as possible with little to no revision. Additionally, because of the want to finish fast, my sentence structure is weak and most of the time it doesn’t make any sense. My writing is often vague since I just want to finish, so I get straight to the point and ignore adding any details to the main points I am covering. But because I have revised every essay I wrote I have seen an improvement in my own writing skills. Despite rushing all the essay, I wrote in WRC 1013 my writing skills have improved because I have revised every essay I have written and fixed

Mcgowan’s description of Jesus as the disabled God makes sense to me because Jesus is the human form of God. Like most humans, Jesus goes through many burdens and was considered a plebeian by society. Human burdens Jesus has felt include feeling sadness, fear and being physically hurt as he was left with scars after being nailed to the cross. Jesus had a lot of emotional and physical burdens in his life, therefore, compared to the all powerful God in heaven, Jesus is the disabled God. Additionally, we see Jesus as a humble person since he lived through hardships that include being hated on and ultimately killed.

I stared out at the sunset from my post of land in the woods. The bleeding of reds, oranges, and pinks together perfectly reflected onto the shimmering lake. My stomach ached, but the taste of beauty made the pain somewhat bearable. This past summer, I went on a La Vida trip, where I was required to do a solo experience, where I was denied food and social interactions for two days. Fasting was proven to be difficult, but it was through that experience that I began to understand the concept of giving all yourself in worship to God. Most of my life I was only familiar with worshiping God with my time, resources, or through song. In denying myself food, I was shown how to worship God through fasting. From the lessons I learned at La Vida, my goals for the next four years are to do what Jesus said in Luke 10:27: “to love the Lord (my) God with all (my) heart and with all (my) soul and with all (my) strength.” Over these four years, I plan to worship God through every aspect of my life, including but not limited to in my academic and musical pursuits.

I have a belief that for some teaching might be an occupation, but for most it is a vocation. I was called to work with children and never looked back. Regardless of the political strife, stress, lack of time or money, I have never considered leaving the profession. There are many times when I call upon God to guide me in the decisions I make especially regarding the children that he puts in my care. I remember waking up one night after a particularly difficult day with a student with whom I just did not feel I was making a difference. There in the dark I prayed about what could I do to help this child. I believe God spoke to me and told me that I was not put in this child’s life to make a difference in him. He was put in my life to make a difference in me. With six weeks left to the school year our relationship changed greatly and he still stops by to visit 10 years later! I attribute this change to asking for, receiving, and acting on advice from God.
