Hi Sheeh Student Analysis

Desiring academic success and working hard for it are two different things. The majority of students want academic success and will have an aspiration to achieve it. However, when it comes to the workload, some students will often not put in as much effort and motivation tends to lack. Therefore, If an individual wants to achieve academic success they must not only consider it but also strive for it. Although, it is understandable that working hard can be very difficult during the school year from what I’ve experienced, there are usually other factors that will hold you back, such as the workload and stress that comes from being enrolled in other classes. However, there are many ways a student can cope with these issues and figure out a work plan that suits their work ethic, which will eventually lead them into achieving academic success. For instance, managing your time and focusing on your priorities first is crucial when it comes to completing school work. Wasting your time on unproductive activities such as watching T.V or playing video games will hold you back from completing necessary work if that is where all your focus is at. Furthermore, setting goals for yourself and finding a source of motivation is an excellent way of having something there that will push you and remind you to take steps into the right path in order to achieve your goals.

It appears that we have more than a few things in common as you previously mentioned.  Like you, I have come to understand how important it is to be knowledgeable about our nation's history.  Understanding the path that has brought us to where we (as a nation) are today and acknowledging those who have influenced that path, is embracing our imperfect present, and pursuing for a better future.

We certainly live in different world, however the trails and tribulations seem to be universal. Here in America I have witnessed the integration of women into the workforce. Life has become to expensive for just one income households. The problem is most men were not raised to that reality, and the equal division of labor around the house is lacking. Both my wife and I have had a successful careers which was only possible because we supported one another like you and your spouse. There is saying here "behind every successful man is a woman". I would put forward that the opposite is also true.

I can relate to your percpective on the matter as we'll, our human nature can at times cause discouremant regarding how others view us and our beliefs however learning the skills and techniques to overcome those challenges has made a hugh impact and transformation in my life. Balance is always the

The concept of course 15 module eight that I found most important is active listening. According to course 15 active listening consists of several techniques. These techniques include encouragements, paraphrasing, emotional labeling, open ended questions, I messages, mirroring, and effective pauses. By using these techniques you encourage positive communication

The role strain that I have is not as difficult as most. I have set the goal of working hard in all my subjects to obtain the highest grade that I can. This goal is not just for me, but for my husband as well. Currently I am unemployed and searching for employment. Because I have no job position, I am expected to achieve at the highest level possible or face informal negative sanctions (McIntyre 105). The pressure I place on myself to try and get the highest grade possible cause forms of writer’s block and performance anxiety that I must overcome or disappoint others. While I do want to get my degree for myself first, I know that I am also going to school for several other individuals. That kind of pressure becomes mind numbing at times and I find it difficult to think. Showing my difficulties is a sign of weakness and I cannot just say that I am stress because I do not work like other adult students. At times I sit and stare at my computer screen hoping that the thoughts will come to me in a fast manner so that I can finish my assignments. This approach does not work all the

Hi Rihana. I enjoyed reading your post and even though I might have a different opinion regarding the longevity of their marriage you did bring up some good points. I agree that there are times when tragedy can bring people together as opposed to pushing them apart. As long as both people are able and willing to do the work that is necessary to move forward. Living through something as horrible as the death of a child is life altering. However, as you describe in your post if they are committed to going to marriage therapy and using tools such as the prevention approach and the cognitive behavioral approach then they have a good shot at salvaging their marriage. My only concern is that I did not feel that Ruth is the type of person who is willing

Despite writing several essays, I fully believe that my best work this year is the creative writing assignment that I did for “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell. The time constraints for the class essays and the source citing for the research papers are two things that bring a heavily negative effect on my essays. The time constraints usually make my conclusions very hastily put together, and a bad ending to an essay is usually what prevents my essay grades from being higher. The recent research paper that I was assigned to do for Romeo and Juliet shows that I need to work on my usage of source materials and how to cite them correctly.

Someone once said “You will never always be motivated. You have to learn to be disciplined,” and, this semester, I found this to be true. When the initial excitement of being a college student began to fade away, the work did not. Learning is definitely not something to take for granted, but it is still work—sometimes really hard work. There were nights I

Karl Popper, an immensely influential 20th century philosopher of science, distinctly identified, “All life is problem solving.” Problems are all the same, all exigencies just packaged and interpreted differently based on audience. I strongly disagree with the claim that “communication is an ineffective means for solving problems.” Communication is seen today as an instrument that people use to accomplish tasks and solve problems. In this claim, instrument is identified as the manner in which the communication is occurring; this can be verbal, non-verbal, online, and visually through text. I define “accomplishing tasks” as the way in which, and how effective the rhetor is in solving an audience’s problem therefore, making improvements in our world. Here, the task of the rhetor is communicating solutions to the audience whom is being spoken. The point of this claim is that communication serves as an instrument we use to articulate our

I developed both the syllabus and course material for ENT392 this semester by referencing lecture notes kindly provided by the previous lecturer (Dr. Andrew Keddie). For this course, I attempted to employed a mix media approach, using a combination of powerpoint slides and videos to deliver course content. Given my students' positive responses to the media I have included in the lectures, I feel that this approach has given them a greater perspective into the biology and diversity of disease vectors, as well as the complexities that underly arthropod-borne disease transmission systems.

I really enjoyed reading your post as it was very well detailed and you gave really good insight to the film. I believe as human beings we can sometimes be very cruel and judgemental, forgetting these individuals are just like us with feelings and emotions. Who they love and what they do in the personal time should not matter to anyone as everyone is entitled to love who they want and do as the please. Although times have changed since 1993 and we are more educated in these diseases and homosexuality I believe we still have a long way to go in society as society needs to learn to be more accepting and not discriminate others for having different believes or likings then what they believe is normal.

Me as a learner I that I am mostly balanced. Mostly because I’m pretty much evenly good and evenly bad. Like sometimes I can do god in school and sometimes I can be bad. Like being off task and not doing the work that the teacher tells the class to do. The good side of me is the one that is always doing his work on time. Because when I was little I would never do any of my homework when I got home. I would always wait until I was supposed to be asleep. Because I could do whatever I wanted for the whole day. Like yesterday the good side was showing because I did all of my homework that was do the next day so I can at least get some sleep. Also when I’m at school sometimes a good side is out. On some days I can pretty much do all of my work without

Part II and Part III are both addressed to specific audiences. Part II is address to people (friends) that are my age. However, part II is address to my parents. The main purpose of part II is to tell my friends about the situation that I am in because of the trouble that I got in a month ago when I went out with my friends. The main purpose of part III is to try to convince my parents to allow me to get back home after 11pm. The audience and purpose of part II will affect the content, tone and diction because I will not include any complicated information; my tone will be simple so that my friends can understand the situation I am in; and my word choices may include slangs since I will be writing to my friends. However, for part II, I will not use any complicated information, but I will try to be as convincing as possible. The tone that I will use will be impartial but strong in order to reach my parents’ understanding since their view points are the opposite of mines. Lastly, the word choices will not include any slangs and will

Going to college, is one of the most stressful phases of someone’s life, this can be seen in any college student, whether it's their first or last year, as a college student. And one of the largest contributors to the stress is getting stellar grades. Over the course of the past three months, I have been continuously stressed about getting good grades and or simply just maintaining them. Maintaining and getting good grades is stressful due to these marks being able to determine my progression in school, as well as the pace I manage to reach my educational goal. There are several examples that show stressful this can be for me.
