Self-Assessment Reflection 7
a) Resistance to Change
b) I had an RTC Score of 2.94, which means that I have average rating when it comes to resistance-to-change. I scored the following in each area: Routine Seeking- 2.20, Emotional Reaction- 4.00, Short-term Focus- 2.50, and Cognitive Rigidity 3.25.
c) Strengths: When it comes to strengths, I scored lower in the Routine Seeking and Short-term Focus categories. Therefore, I have lower resistance to these two areas. Routine Seeking encompasses the idea that as an individual, I like to have a daily routine, and often rely on that for structure. Once in a while, I do enjoy breaking my routines up and doing something unexpected or unplanned. As for Short-term Focus, I often do not focus too much on the short term effects, but rely heavily on the longterm effects to change my attitude toward a certain situation. I am fully aware of the short-term inconvenience, but can still see the potential long-term benefits that may come out of the situation. I take this into consideration when making decisions about change. For Example, I highly like routine while at work. I work in the floral department at the JDK Group in Camp Hill, and generally have a routine that I go through during the week. The type of environment I work in allows for many changes and different situations based of of each clients needs. Every Monday, I arrive at 8AM, and begin by pulling the production sheets and wedding/event files for
I was very surprised with the results of this test because of its accuracy. All five of my strengths relate to me, although the order of them may be a little off. These top five are easily the most accurate towards describing me. I believe relator and adaptability are the two that fit me best and they are my number five and number two.
Throughout the group article exercise really did showcase who's personalities were strong and who's personalities were not. Having a strong personality means that you are willing to listen to other people's opinions but will debate on it by logical thinking of how you came across your answer rather than people with not so strong personalities meaning they agree with the group decisions. Through my personality, it will really show how I came across my conclusions, how the group came across their conclusions and how the group is influenced by the decisions made through the online assessments.
The end of the semester is approaching quickly and you can see “light at the end of the tunnel.” The final assignment is a self-reflection essay on what you learned during the semester in ENG 111. There were three other essay assignments. The first one was called a literacy narrative, the second one, a single source essay, and the third one, a multi-source essay. But how can I write about things I do not understand? I had never taken an online class before, much less, a class that required so much reading and writing. This is a college level course and I am just a junior in high school. I was clueless about writing a paper in a format and I possessed no knowledge of a works cited page. So, what did I learn? First of all,
Strength’s Finder 2.0: I learned a lot from taking this assessment. My top 5 themes are as followed; Harmony, Consistency, Analytical, Adaptability, Intellection. Although I was unaware that I held these strengths, I am now confident in saying that I indeed excel in these areas. As far as Harmony goes, it is true that I do not like to spend all my time in one area. I also do not like to take sides in conflicts and would rather stay out of it. I am not good with confrontation, unless I have to be. Consistency is also something that
Tom Rath’s StrengthsFinder 2.0 identified my top five themes through an online assessment that showed my
The purpose of this assignment is to self-reflect on what has been learnt in the topic this semester and how it is going to influence as a health professional in our chosen field. This assessment is made to encourage us to be able to identify the values and beliefs we have as individuals and how these impact on our ability to interact without others in a diverse society. This self-reflection will include the results from an Implicit Association Test to help gain a greater awareness of my own unconscious thoughts as well as evidence from reliable sources to help back up statements and give evidence to support this assessment.

The College of Charleston was my preferred college out of the colleges I applied to. A majority of the time this was a good choice. Then there are times when part of me thinks attending a different college would have been a better idea. Then again, it is only the first semester of my freshman year. Freshman year has a handful of requirements for classes, including the First Year Experience and the seminar that goes with it and many other general education courses. There were a good many choices to choose from for my First Year Experience class and The Gullah Community: Ethnographic Research in Gender and Identity was the one that stood out to me the most.
Although personal development is an important aspect of one’s life, being able to reflect on the ground covered plays a more critical role. Primarily, self-reflection in professional development allows one to identify milestones that have been overcome, the current state of affairs and the projected targets. The identification of prevailing failures in the process provides a glimpse into what needs to be changed in order for the target to be achieved within the set timeframe. The concept of self-evaluation and self-reflection encapsulates a complex synthesis of the development of employability skills, employability engagement, and the action plan to optimize the skills and knowledge developed in the process of professional development.
Self assessment is a process in which you examine yourself in attempt to discover and learn more about yourself. Your likes, dislikes, behaviors, attitudes and habits can be found during this process. You can use the discoveries to your advantage by accepting or changing strengths and weaknesses. I plan on using this course to enhance my personal skills to become a better student and find success in earning my Bachelor of Arts degree at Ashford University in Social Science. Self Assessment is the first step in my successful future.
This self-assessment and Reflection Paper is about the questions on page 109. The main arguments are ontological, teleological, and ontological.
I have used the feedback to deepen my learning and improved the learning product I submitted by listing and understanding what my instructor have given me through our discussion about the homework assignments. I have taken that information constructively to make sure that the paper I will be submitting is concise and sound conveying the information properly in the APA format making the submitting assignment free from grammatical errors to best of my ability. For example; the instructor and I discussed about submitting an APA style paper with in-text citation and properly referencing my paper. This discussion helped me more conscious and aware about submitting my writing assignments in the APA format. Also, the discussion helped me to organized and structure my paper given it a consistent flow throughout the paper.
The purpose of this assignment is to go through a process of self-reflection and self-evaluation to discover the scope of personal and professional development, while enrolled in an undergraduate nursing program. This paper looks at my accomplishment of meeting all eight behaviors that are specific outcomes of the nursing program including: critical thinking, nursing practice, communication, teaching, research, leadership, professionalism, and culture. These accomplishments, over the course of my undergraduate career, will be proven using previous completed clinical logs that span sophomore, junior, and senior year in the nursing program.
The results of my self assessment were pretty accurate to what I know about myself. I have strong intrapersonal and interpersonal skills. I maintain strong relationships with others and think deeply about my life choices, goals, and ambitions. The only score that I thought would be higher was my musical score. I can play a musical instrument and I enjoy listening to music, but I don’t like to sing or play for others. Thinking back to my childhood, I was a linguistic learner. I followed directions well, if someone modeled how to do something, I could follow it and explain it back. I liked talking with someone personally to understand different concepts. The older I got, I was able to adapt to how my teachers’ taught. I had one teacher who loved using bodily-kinesthetic activities, I had other teachers who loved to sing and use logical-mathematical thinking. If I didn’t adjust to their styles of teaching, I wouldn’t have been successful in their class. I believe learning patterns can be altered because my learning pattern was altered. I’ve learned many different things from teachers who have different teaching styles. Teaching is an art and all teachers should use different teaching styles. Having a wide variety of teachers with different teaching styles made me a well rounded learner.
During the fall semester FYS class, I was able to learn the meet many of the learning objectives for this course. I learned how using critical thinking, reading, and writing skills will help in my work. I learned more about myself and what direction I want to go in my life. The importance of coming of age and adventure were brought to my attention, and the themes that go with it. The class discussions prepared me for when I had to be the discussion leader, and explain my adult adventure plan in the class. I felt that these learning objectives helped me to become a better students during this semester, and to be able to use what I learned throughout the next 4 years.
