· Did you accomplish your personal goals?
Yes, I did. My personal goals align with our group project objectives, which include fulfilling the University of Mary Benedictine values, gaining a better understanding of the effect of socioeconomic has on children’s development, and attaining a better perception of the barrier that under-privileged children face in the acquirement of basic necessities. I provided the service to both the children and adults (food pantry) with my classmates, during which I implemented the Benedictine values and APTA core values. Throughout the interacting with different children, I noticed that how important the family and social support are to early childhood development. There was one single father who brought his son and daughter (both around 3-5 y.o) who could not even say a word at the beginning. After we taught them the games and played with them, they started to talk. I also learned some American games after this project, such as the “cat pull”, water balloon, capture the flag, etc, which will be helpful for me to treat pediatric patients in the future.
· How well did the team collaborate? What was your role in helping or hindering the team dynamics? Did the team accomplish its goals? Why or why not?
Everybody in our team did a great job and we cooperated very well throughout the past four weeks. I was very flexible in regards to the tasks in our project and I offered help with playing outside, inside, preparing ice cream, hot dog, food
Drawing characters, backgrounds, rims, cars, or trucks spends most of my pastime. In addition to drawing, I would also like to partake classes in Animation. Art directors earned $56,880 in 2000, and the highest 10% made more than $109,440 dollars. Artist work about 40 hours a week, but during busy periods, they work overtime to meet deadlines.
I have decided on what I wanted to do with college since I was a child. It sounds ridiculous, but I am passionate about what I want to do. I was inspired at a very young age since I was in third grade, and I knew that I wanted to be a teacher. A teacher for what grade is what I did not know. As my family grew bigger with my nephews and nieces, I realized that I wanted to be surrounded by kids. I put what I wanted with my passion and got major. My intended major is to receive a double major in Primary and Elementary education, my goal is to receive a Masters in at least one of these majors.
Discuss the most successful team experience you have had. What made the team successful? What was your role on the team?
Life is all about choices, what do you want to eat, who do you want to hang out with and where do you want to attend college? These choices shape and create who we are. However, as important as choices are they do not guide us. The goals we set for ourselves are our guides. Goals can determine whether a person succeeds or fails (Hyatt). Goals give us a sense of direction, a sense of self worth and a sense of excitement (Locke & Lathem 2002). In my classroom I ask students to create goals every year. I ask them for two academic goals and one personal goal. I enjoy doing this activity because it gives my students guidance and something to shoot for. I create goals in every aspect of my life. Some of my goals include professional goals with coaching and teaching, some goals are personal goals and lastly some are goals are family related. Throughout this paper I will be talking about goals. This paper will discuss advantages of goal, S.M.A.R.T. goals and types of goals.
Knowing what I excel at has given me the ambition to rise to the challenge of earning a college degree. I have attempted on line school seven years ago and I had to make the difficult decision to withdraw from school when my family and financial obligations became overwhelming. I look back on that experience and have been able to analyze myself and now know what was lacking in my life at that time. I was not close with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I was attempting to control all the angles of my life alone instead of allowing the Lord to help me. In the midst of my struggle for control I was unsure of my own strengths, passions, and abilities. Since that time I have been working in the human services field as the assistant director of a local adolescent girls group home. Working with at risk
Scholarships are more than just an amount of money; they are are steps to help reach your goal. If I was awarded this scholarship, it would put me one step close to paying for my college education and my goal to help people. My personal goal for when I get out of college is to work for the agricultural sector of the government and to be involved in politics. I have a dream of one day being in the position where I can develop an organization that would teach inner city families how to produce food on their own. I would teach them the basic concept of urban agriculture, which is growing produce in a heavily populated town or municipality. My goal would be for them to realize that they do not need to rely on government handouts to survive; they
Throughout the rollercoaster of a ride the past two years have been, I have been involved in a numerous amounts of extracurricular activities ranging from volunteering, babysitting, and of course, athletics. Most notably have been my contributions via athletics. Besides being a member of the varsity football team my sophomore to senior year (while being a captain my senior year) and a member of the varsity track team my senior year, being in these sports has given me many opportunities to give back to my community. Football players are not known to be the brightest of the bunch and often times, need an extra hand in academics. During my sophomore and junior year, I tutored a few of my fellow teammates to insure they got their G.P.A up and was able to compete on friday nights. In track, I did many fundraisers and similar dog sitting friends and family. Other extracurriculars I have done the past 2 years include being nominated for the National Society of High School Scholars and the
The goals of my past are the result of my present and my future will be.
Many of my peers view second semester of senior year as a burden that they must endure before they can finally graduate and never step foot in high school again. Although I am eager to graduate and pursue the next chapter of my life as a college student next fall, I hope to take advantage of my final semester of high school. For most of my four years, I have done the requirements for my classes, but not gone beyond them to pursue topics I found interesting or was passionate about. I also have not taken the time to pursue personal goals I have set for myself because I was lacking the motivation to complete them. Through the project I have designed for myself, I hope to pursue the academic passions that I have pushed to the side during high school,
Three goals that I have for myself: my first goal is to pick a major that I enjoy, my second goal is become a part of clubs, and my third goal is keep all my grades up. As I have started my journey through college goals of mine have started to form. Writing them down and setting a time to complete them will help me better my journey and accomplish what I want to accomplish.
In reviewing my three goals and updating them into the DAPPS system of effective goal writing using the five qualities that DAPPS stands for. Dated is giving all of my goals a time frame. Achievable is when you choose goals that make up grow by attempting to reach the goals. Personal are the goals you come up with that are your own personal goals that you will look back on your life and say I achieved my goals. Positive is how you should view your goals and the wording that you use when you write them. Specific are goals that are measurable, achievable and concrete.
Everyone has life goals that they wish to achieve. Some may be completing college while others may be starting a family and getting married. My goals are completing college with my masters degree in business, gaining a successful job as an entrepreneur, and creating a maintaining at least three successful business. These goals may come with obstacles including judgement of gender, religion and race. Chapter 10, 11, and 13’s concepts in the textbook “Society the Basics” help me overcome these judgments by pointing out life lessons and important information.
Finally, as a result of our good team work, our work synergy increased to a high level because everybody worked hard for the team.
Goals were established in the beginning of this semester that I have tried to accomplish in the past few months. One of my goals was to receive a grade of 90% or higher on my Biology class. To be able to achieve this goal, I started to meet with my biology teacher, Dr. Combs, depending on when she had time to help me and whenever I was available as well. Some days we would meet once a week, but other times we would meet twice a week and discuss what we were learning and the places where I was having trouble in. Another goal was to not fall asleep in any of my classes and not oversleep for my classes. The way I tried to maintain this goal was by setting alarms according to my schedule to have enough time to get ready and be in class. I
Personal goals setting allow students to decide what they want to achieve, and then step-by-step move towards the achievement of these goals (University of Hull, 2016). Furthermore, achieving these goals provide student the confidence to strive for higher and more difficult goals in long-term (University of New Hampshire, 2016).
