Reflection In Considering Stones

I give this movie a six out of five-star rating. How it managed to keep me on the edge of my seat the entire time is beyond me; I am still in disbelief that I was fully engaged for the entire two hours and twenty-six minutes. Although I had heard many great things about the novel, the film exceeded all of my expectations. The Natural teaches many valuable lessons about perseverance, determination, commitment, karma, relationships, and staying young at heart.

Reflective learners gain understanding most effectively when they are given time to process and reflect on the information being presented. I much prefer to analyse a concept by meticulously visualising the most important aspects in order to develop my understanding. I often feel more productive when

The best way to learn new things is to make mistakes and learn from your mistakes and the best way to understand others is to put your legs in their shoes. Cliff

When man learns something they have to adjust themselves from the old ways. This basically says that getting educated is not always good, but it is the truth. “It would obviously take some getting accustomed, I think, if it should be a matter of taking into one's eyes that which is up there outside the cave, in the light of the sun.” (Plato 4). This quote from,“The Allegory of the Cave” supports that when man receives knowledge it changes the perspective.

To truly think about knowledge brings about some interesting thought. When asked to think about knowledge, most individuals concern themselves solely with what they know such as certain subjects, theories or facts. In the grand scheme of things, this way of thought is seemingly only minute or even superficial. As human beings, we do not always considered how we come to know what we know. We often place are acquisition of knowledge lower in a taxonomy of importance. All too often, individuals take knowledge and its power for granted. However, individuals like René Descartes and his work, The Meditations, provide a deep exploration of knowledge and all its facets. For every individual or scholar this work is very important in that it causes

This reflective essay will be adopted from Rolfe, Freshwater and Jasper’s (2001) reflection model. This reflection is based on a case study that I have read and will be based on the intervention I have chosen to treat the patient. Mr. Castello was admitted to the ward for observation after a fight and sustaining a laceration to his right forehead from a beer bottle and extensive bruising and scratches to his left arm. Mr. Castello had a pre-existing chest infection, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM), and asthma. Assessing, cleaning and dressing his wounds is an integral part of his treatment, as his DM can lead to delayed wound healing and increased chance of infection (Salazar, Ennis, & Koh, 2016). This could be successfully achieved through

Looking back on the book club for Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese, gives me mixed feelings. I think in the end, myself and the rest of the 2022’s were able to run the session well. At the same time, I do believe that the process through which the session was created could be improved.

There are many different theories on the best way to read, and there are just as many essays trying to explain those theories. Sven Birkerts and Emily Martin have both written essays explaining their theory of the most helpful way to understand. Birkerts, in his essay, write about horizontal and vertical reading, and how the best way to get something out of a text is to read it thoroughly many times to understand every piece of it. Martin, on the other hand, explains how knowledge can and should be related to one’s own life, and by doing so one is stimulated by the information and able to extrapolate wisdom from it. Throughout this essay, I will introduce two examples of understanding and applying knowledge, one dealing with retaining information and the other with one’s own beliefs.

This semester I learned a lot about writing in English 151. It has been a roller coaster ride with these essays for me this semester. I learned step by step how to write a good essay and how to have your readers be engaged in what you’re trying to tell them. Each essay I did has taught me something valuable I can take to the next level of English. I feel as if as the semester went by I did not take my writing that seriously and that reflected in my grades I received in each essay. It made me a better student and writer and it will reflect next semester. In this essay, I will reflect on what I learned throughout this semester that you should apply in your writing when you begin English 151.

For the last six weeks in both mental and acute setting, I have reflected on events that I had met in each week. Now, I am going to identify essential personal learning outcomes from those events and will include personal awareness of strengths and weaknesses. Among the different models of reflection, I will use the Gibbs model of reflection which entails six stages such as description, feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion, action plan.

It is not enough to be content with what I have already known. In order to reach my maximum potential, I attempt to deepen my understanding of the world. Sometimes it can be overwhelming with all the knowledge there is in the world, so I ask myself the question “What knowledge will help me move ahead?”

The way one learns, what one learns, and the capacity one has to learn: these are all things that could be understood upon further studies. By devoting time to these studies now it

I thrive on gaining knowledge. Even now, as a non-traditional student and busy mother to two young children, learning excites me. As an 18-year-old in Germany, I began a 10-year career as a military analyst that honed my ability to think critically, pay attention to detail, and visualize holistic solutions to unique problems. However, I spent my free time riding a bike along The Rhine searching for a quiet space to settle in with the wisdom of books such as The Art of Happiness and The Elegant Universe. There, on those riverbanks, I discovered within myself an innate curiosity of the mind and the fundamental nature of the world.

As we begin to wrap up this semester, I reflect on all the learning and achievements I have obtained thus far in the program. Throughout this semester, my communication and relational capacity has grown, driving me to break out of my comfort shell. At the beginning of this year I had wrote a letter to myself, outlining three goals that I wanted to achieve. The three goals were: work with a palliative client, become more assertive, and to integrate family care into my practice. I began the semester off in acute care, on the medical floor. During the second part of the semester, I was assigned to be in the first group of students to start the Trail Outreach Nursing. My new placement has created a new goal of increasing my communication

In order to gain knowledge, one must study him or herself. By learning about oneself, one ultimately learns about others and the world around him or her.
