My Journey Into The Field Essay

Field Education starts off with having some responsibilities in training to perfect your ministries. You must first learn what ministry would best suit you. Never assumed you can do all things by yourself. Every position is not done by one person, sometimes it take personal to work it. Training is so essential to every aspect as you must know what to do. Choosing the correct field to go into and set up your goals that you want to work in. Make sure you are learning in your field. My professor told for me to pick three ministries that I would like to work in. I first look at myself and my ability to do the things I know I can perform.

One cold sunny weekend in February of 2014 in Madison, MS the Saint Stanislaus boys just arrived to the hotel where they would stay for the night before the big game. All was good the night before we ate and later went to sleep. We all woke up around eight in the morning and had breakfast. We left for the fields around twelve because the game was at two in the evening.

     The film Rookie is a factual drama that is based on the life of Jimmy Morris, an ex-major league baseball player. The subject matter of the movie was to never quit; try, try again or at least until you reach your goal. This film inspires the person to fulfill their dreams no matter how impossible they may seem.

When I was on a softball team a few years ago, me and my teammates would communicate through the essentials of communication which are process, meaning, and symbolic communication both on and off the baseball field. In example, when we are on the field, we communicate in procedural ways in order to reach a goal. We were engaging in action when we were practicing and using our knowledge when implementing a strategic plan on how we would play the different opponents we faced especially in crucial games. My teammates were all different races so we all had different cultural backgrounds. There were people on my team who were of American, African American, Asian, Lebanese, Puerto Rican, and Dominican descent. Therefore, my language was constantly changing when communicating between my Hispanic and American teammates. Our interpersonal competence and determination to win depicted the outcome of our games. However, most of us shared the same desire and effort in helping each other learn and grow with the team.

My palms were sweaty as I began the process of gearing up for what was ahead of me. The many ideas of what I could possibly accomplish today were whirling around in my head. One beat up shin guard after another, I covered them with a crystal clear white sock to match the dark colored jersey. I took a deep breath lacing up my new cleats I’ve been longing to wear out. The talk from around me was not my focus at the moment, so I stood quietly and put in my ear buds.

I have learned a great many things from playing soccer. It has changed my entire outlook on and attitude toward life. Before my freshman year at Cool high school, I was shy, had low self-esteem and turned away from seemingly impossible challenges. Soccer has altered all of these qualities. On the first day of freshman practice, the team warmed up with a game of soccer. The players were split up and the game began. However, during the game, I noticed that I didn't' t run as hard as I could, nor did I try to evade my defender and get open. The fact of the matter is that I really did not want to receive the ball. I didn't' t want to be the one at fault if the play didn't' t succeed. I did not want the responsibility of helping the team

Taking a class about teaching and actually going to a classroom to teach is an eye opening experience. Field experience helps prepare you for what an actual classroom setting is like when you’re in charge and not just teaching in front of your peers. By taking part in field experience I was able to learn new things about education as a whole and myself in general. Field experience changed me by allowing me to see the classroom through teacher’s eyes and helping me narrow down the list of what career I might want in the future. Going into the field experience I had no idea what to expect.

As I step out onto the field I smack in the face the aroma of the freshly cut grass. I get the sense of being home after a long trip away. It’s great to be home where I know I have fans that will cheer us on. The grounds crew is out working on the field to get it ready for the game later tonight.

Introduction In the fall of 2017, I was assigned my first field experience as a student in the college of education at The University of North Georgia. My opportunity to spend 20 hours observing and assisting in a fourth grade math class in a public school setting allowed me to see firsthand the implications of my coursework and readings in Education 2130. Through observing and supporting the teacher by conducting small group re-teaching sessions, I was able to more deeply understand topics including student motivation, assessment and evaluation, learning styles and techniques of instruction including direct instruction and student-centered approaches.

I moved to California three years ago to pursue a Master's degree in social work at USC. During the time I have lived here, I have gained invaluable experience working full-time in the social work field. My first social work related job in California was working at an IMD step-down program for transitional aged youths and adults with dual diagnoses. From there, I began working in the Wraparound program at Aviva Family and Children's Services as a Child and Family Specialist.

I observed and analyzed the design and delivery of an instructional unit in a Montessori school setting. I observed a classroom of grades 1-3 two times from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. at the Kennebec Montessori school. I was asked to sit quietly and to not interact with the children so I could get a realistic view of the class day and the children would pursue their chosen work.
