Problem Solving Reflection

Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others- it’s important for students to be able to explain and be able to discuss the process into which they believe a problem should be solved this demonstrates the students understanding on the concept. They should be able to clarify and answer any questions that arise about the problem once again displaying a deeper understanding then just being able to memorize formulas/steps and solving a problem.

To be perfectly honest my recollection of Comp 121 is a little foggy, i took the course roughly a year and a half ago and during my first semester and it was one of my first college level courses. From what i can recall it was a interesting and enjoyable, The professor Jacob Sherlock is no longer with the school, but was a professional writer along with a life-long lover and student of the written word. We regularly discussed current events and the class wide give and take of various ideas and viewpoints was truly enlightening and are easily amongst my most enjoyable and memorable college experiences. In particular i vibrantly recall a passionate debate on gun-control which was to be frank, dominated by a extremely Conservative former Army

The assigned video for this week's reflection assignment was presented by Iraqveteran8888 via youtube.com. The video is titled "History's deadliest bullet". Iraqveteran8888 begins the video by introducing  co-worker of his at Moss Pawn, whom he notes to be a Civil War era firearm enthusiast. He introduces the coveted Minie ball round developed by French Army Captain Claude Minie. The design at the time I believe to be revolutionary in nature. Iraqveteran8888 states this round changed the face of warfare as it was known at the time. What made the Minie ball unique was the addition of "skirting" to the body of the cartridge. Prior to it's inception ammunition was a lead ball. They were not so dynamic when being fired as they would allow for gases

Furthermore, I really need to pass this course because after spring 2016 I would no longer be able to attend college to finish my degree and I am so close to complete it. Only have two classes left Math 113 and Biology 105 that I am in enrolled in for spring 2016. I was told by the Financial Aid department that I only have an enough money left for those two classes and supplies. I would greatly appreciate it if you would look at my record here at John A. Logan College and reconsider my grade in this Math 062.

According to the book "Making Thinking Visible” students who are engaged in their work are motivated by four essential goals: success, curiosity, originality, and relationships. Teaching mathematics through critical and creative thinking allows us to

Intern met with resident K. Brown for the purpose of addressing her personal concerns and speaking with her about her community service hours. Kiara informed me that she completed her community service hours for the previous week. Intern asked her to verify the days she completes CS hours, and she stated Sundays and Wednesdays. Resident did express her frustrations by saying that she used to mess up with her CS hours, but she is really trying to do better. Intern advised her that another resident completes hers during that time, so she will have to do CS hours on Mondays and Thursdays or Mondays and Fridays. Intern also explained to her the importance of doing CS hours. It was explained that not only is this a requirement of the program,

I have always tried my hardest in school, trying my best to make my parents proud of me. Have there been time when I could have tried harder? Absolutely. There have been many times where I have found myself slipping in my schoolwork, and I have always caught myself. There is one time in particular of my junior year that I won't soon forget.

Comp 101 was easier than I had originally expected; Comp 102 wasn’t much different. I came into this semester expecting it to be very similar to last semester, especially considering I had the same instructor. I was correct for the most part, the course consisted of very similar content. The biggest differences being the types of essays. In the first semester I wrote a Letter of Introduction, a Profile Essay, an Evaluation, and a Reflection. This semester I wrote an Argument Analysis, an Informative Report, a group Annotated Bibliography, a Proposal Essay, and a Reflection, which I am currently writing. Through writing these essays, I’ve learned that some require lots of time dedicated to researching, while others require wordsmithing to allow you to find that one word that gets your point across perfectly. Overall, my reading and writing skills improved, while my communications skills stayed that same throughout my time in this class.

I printed out this email and I highlighted the answers we were to bubble in. However, once we began to bubble in the answers there was a problem. The overwhelming majority of the students did not know their address. This created a major problem because I was given only one paper with the students’ address. Thus, I had to spend the majority of the time helping students with their addresses. Around 10:50 Tammy Becker walked in and told my class that we were being too loud (I was doing my best helping students fill out their address). She said we were to start the test at 11:05 am. As a result, I made sure we did start the test at 11:05 am. At 11:05 am the students began testing. I followed everything we were instructed to do during the PSAT.

I am a member of Service Knights, we do community work. For example, we helped tutor elementary students with their homework every Monday and Tuesday for about a month and a half. Me tutoring elementary students required patience as some children were frustrated with their homework and expressed anger toward us tutors. We taught them patience and that It sometimes takes a while to fully understand the material but in the end, they would be able to learn it. Tutoring the elementary students allowed many of us tutors to be hands-on, so many elementary students needed help and there were not enough tutors to cover each student, so we had to work together and thoroughly explain what is the answer they needed help with Math or English, sometimes

In this reflection paper, I really want to take to the time and effort needed to show what I truly believe reflects on how my semester should and will change. Going through my quiz, I really noticed that many of my answers were telling me that I really have a lot of habit and some necessarily were not so good. Like the fact that I am the type of writer that is always wanting to plan heavily on my papers, in the sense that I like to structure out my papers. Mainly making a list before I start writing and trying to outline specific details I want to get across in my essay prompts.

Math is one of those subjects that we tend to find the least accessible and the least applicable to our lives. After all, who is ever going to need to use Fermat’s Little Theorem or the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic in their everyday life besides a handful of individuals? The easiest answer to this prompt, then, is to say that math is going to influence the ways I create and craft budgets in my production management career. However, that answer is no more interesting that saying that knowing how to add helps you pay your bills every week. Perhaps the best answer to this prompt is not in what math can do for me on a practical level, but rather it is in what math can help illuminate for me. When I started this course, I believed math to be the essential foundation for our everyday activities (and that is still true). But as this course ends, I have come to understand math as more than just how to encrypt information online securely.

For the TGMD-2, my participant was named James Williams. He is a six year old boy who is in first grade at Just Elementary and his physical education teacher is Coach Mark Perry. For his age, William possessed advanced movement on a lot of the tasks. With regards to the TGMD-2, it will be beneficial to look at each of the specific activities and where the William was at developmentally.

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

Not a single class should be disregarded because it is one’s responsibility as a students to produce laible work for every course we decide to take. AP Chemistry and Math Analysis were by far some of the most challenging courses I have taken as of now. I am truly interested in the field of science, and chemistry is an intriguing for subject; however, because I was not expecting the density of the course material in such rapid time, being able to fully grasp the content of the material came as a challenge to me. I can honestly say that for the first grading period of the class I believed I would completely fail the class. As well, coming from a normal honors chemistry class, averaging almost a hundred percent, I allowed my previous success to get to my head. Of course, I did not believe that AP Chemistry would be nearly as simple as normal chemistry, but I also could not image that it would quite different. After I learned that I could not maintain a decent grade without the time and effort, I began to get a hold of the class and improved substantially. Over all, I actually did enjoy the class due to the vast spectrum of topics it covered. As for Math Analysis, I genuinely believe that my lack of effort jeopardized my grade. I have never been a “math person,” but I have always dedicated time to all math courses in order to receive the grade I want. Nonetheless, because I was incredibly preoccupied with AP classes and attempting to maintain an A in those courses, I allowed
