I Was Accepted Into The Royal Roads Mapc Program

I have made some progress regarding my action plan. I haven’t attended any open days as yet but planning to do so in June so far and completed my personal statement. My first action plan regarding higher education was to get distinctions in all my assignments. So

Many of the concepts you will be learning throughout this course are best understood as well as more interesting if you

What was the most challenging topic for you in this course? What resources or methods might have better assisted you with this topic?

This program provides a great opportunity to allow me to give back Kelley to and be more connected with Kelley. The opportunity for me to coach other people will be one of the most enhancing and practical experience I will have at Kelley.

Reflect on what you have learned in this course and discuss how it might influence your work as a professional

Before taking this course I was really excited about what I am going to learn. And I was right! This course is not only interesting but it is also helpful. I have learned that the grade I am having right now is the reflection of my try throughout the entire semester.

Theory simply tells the essential truth about the real world through evidence obtained by scientific method. Barker defines theory as a group of related hypotheses, concepts, and constructs, based on facts and observations all in which attempt to explain a phenomenon. Every theory is unique, but can reflect some of the same general ideas. Though every theory has a different focus, they can all be intertwined in order to enhance therapeutic alliance. In order to choose the best theoretical orientation for ourselves and how they will benefit our practice, we first have to understand the meaning of theoretical orientation.

When I first started this course, my grades were not where I wanted them to be. I found myself feeling down about it because I expected more from myself. I knew it was not my best work, and wondered what I could do to improve them. With “Achiever” as a strength, I am pushed by my drive.(Clifton, Anderson, Schreiner, 2006). I thrive off of hard work and often look to myself for the motivation needed to complete whichever task is needed. Seeing those grades made me want to improve and work harder. I began to set aside time to only focus on my

One of my most influential experiences took place with my very first class, ED 523 taught by Dr. Howe. In this course, I learned about the Understanding by Design (UbD) Framework created by Wiggins and McTighe. This framework focuses on a backward design approach that uses big

Inventory: I am an independent learner, so this course is perfect for my learning style. I’m also a spatial learner which means I take in information by studying graphics. One way I would

I must admit that I have always looked at this type of course as being a complete waste of time. After taking the Learning Connections Inventory, I've discovered that I'm a Dynamic Learner according to the results of the questionnaire. It's totally shed some light on the how, what, when and why of my success and failures in my educational as well as personal and professional life.

During week one, my initial definition of learning was listening to an instruction, studying and then rehearsing that information in my mind, or categorizing it in a way so I could remember most of what was taught in the course. The class has opened a new dimension for me in the learning process; from understanding how I process information to deciphering which learning processes I use in intentional learning or metacognition. Understanding my learning patterns form dynamic learning relationship is a key element to my view of how and why I process the learning experience, even relating it to every day life.

I have discovered some interesting things I have noticed in myself before taking this course. For example, my learning style I have noticed is the visual learning style.

The reason I am interested in this program is because I want to have real experiences. I no longer want to look at life through a computer screen. I want to be the one researching and challenging myself in every possible way. I am a very open-minded and ambitious person. I am prepared to tackle any task that comes my way. I have little outdoor experience, but I want nothing more than to learn. Adventures are the best way of learning so this position was naturally appealing to me. This program will give me the opportunity to apply what I learned in class to the real world and allow me to escape the ordinary. I am a freshman in college with a massive desire for learning. I wish to leave my own trail and be the ripple in a wave that will produce

I have vastly benefitted from the breadth of Anna University’s undergraduate syllabus and gained a widespread exposure to many core areas of the field and conceptual understanding. In my under-graduate study, I have learnt how to maintain an expending self-governing approach in all my
