Reflection Paper On Internship

First Year Seminar is a beneficial, getting started-like course provided by West Coast University during the first term of the program. Since the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program is very rigorous this course is helpful in adjusting new students, such as myself, to a very demanding, fast-pace program. This class focuses on topics that help students organize and understand oneself and the mission of WCU mission to achieve the greatest success as a student. In my Signature Assignment term paper I will focus on my experience with FYS and what information I’ve gained to help me understand my learning style, strengths and weaknesses I have as a student, how working collaboratively benefits me and how I will go about achieving success at WCU.

Internships are extraordinary opportunities to learn and grow. Internships are mostly designed to expand the depth and the breadth of the academic learning in the particular areas of the study. Internship is an opportunity to receive experience in applying all formulas, methods, theories in the classroom to specific experiences in the real world and to see how it actually works.

I started my internship with the De Pere Area Chamber of Commerce in the first week of June. Beginning my internship I wasn’t sure what to expect. I had ideas about what I was going to be doing, but wasn’t sure. Whether the task was big or small I knew I wanted to contribute.

This memo describes my progress to date in the course COSC 684 300: Professional Internship in Summer 2015 semester. I shall also discuss my plans to successfully complete the course in August 2015. The memorandum would be divided in three main task areas which were agreed at the time of the individual internship agreement between me and the department.

During the mid-way point of my internship I was in the process of planning the annual golf outing. We had the outing on July 29th. We were faced with a last-minute scramble the day before. We felt we didn’t have enough donations for a bucket raffle which lead to overtime and making sure that by the next day it would be taken care of. I have also written a newsletter for the Chamber. By creating a newsletter for the Chamber, it enables us to send out an e-mail on ChamberMaster (what we use for communication, e-mail and how we keep track of all of our members,) and figure out who is no longer active on ChamberMaster. Cleaning up ChamberMaster was something I wanted to get taken care of before I ended my internship; unfortunately I never had time to finish. Overall, despite the fact that I didn’t finish everything I would have like to during my internship, I’m proud of everything I accomplished during my time at the De Pere Area Chamber of

At the beginning of this internship, I did not know what to expect. It was the first time I was going into a professional work place and a professional setting every day. Therefore, my expectations were based on my assumptions of an internship that I have observed through the media and the opinions of other students.

My pathway for this project is the internship pathway and I plan to become a in the Southern Education Leadership Initiative (SELI). A project that works with various organizations in the American south to bring education equality. This project should help me grow in gaining experience in working in environments that I am not necessarily used to. In order to do this though I need to apply for the fellowship and if I am accepted I need to find a place to live when I am assigned a location.

To begin with, when I first started my internship with the Shake It Up-After School program, I honestly didn’t know what to expect. On one hand, I knew that my knowledge from last year would allow me to prepare for this year; but on the other hand, I also had to remember that this year would be different since I was taking on a leadership role. Although I wasn’t assertive at the start of the program, I was privileged enough to work side by side with people who were. Janne Knight for example, was the other co-director of Lowell elementary school and had been for the past two years. With that in mind, I turned to her and, Dr. Matthew Hansen for enlightenment until I felt comfortable enough to take the lead.

As Epiphany once said "I’ve found that growing up means being honest. About what I want. What I need. What I feel. Who I am." As I came into the Junior year, I didn't expect as many setbacks as I encountered. It was definitely a challenging year academically and personally because I hit many bumps in the road that made me fall into a never ending spiral of pessimism. I have definitely improved myself since the beginning of the year and have learned a lot of valuable lessons. This year has definitely been about growth and finding a pathway from darkness to light that has shaped me to become a stronger person with the ability to be challenged and not doubt myself but rather to overcome the obstacles and strive for

The internship that I acquired during the summer of 2010 at the Greenwood Sports and Industrial Rehabilitation Center (GSIRC), allowed me to gain an immeasurable amount of experience during my tenure at this facility. Within this period, the exposure to new concepts within the physical therapy industry allowed me to observe and work hands on with patients of all ages and disabilities that exposed me to various treatment plans and programs to restore client’s mobility. The essential Physical Education and Exercise Science (PEES) courses taken at Lander University were beneficial to my academic knowledgebase, which prepared me and developed me for the opportunity within the physical therapy discipline. Working as

One of the things that I learned at my internship is that no matter how well a student may perform in a class, this is no sign of being ready for a job in the real world. Even though I had studied my manual before my first day, felt confident of my knowledge in sociology and criminal justice, and presumed to have sufficient people’s skills, I was not ready. My whole life I was convinced that I was strong enough to work as a law enforcer and that I could become a good criminal lawyer. Being exposed to real victims of domestic violence who need to through a legal process while they are suffering emotionally (and many still dealing with bruises on their bodies) has been one of the toughest experiences of my undergraduate career. Despite the fact that I have worked with so many clients in the past months, the story of a 16-year-old client who had been chocked by her boyfriend until she almost passed out during the last week of my internship still touched me. I learned that criminal justice majors don’t necessarily prepare students to deal with the psychological aspect of this career.

It has been a while since I started at the internship and I am really glad I decided to work here. I think the experience in this area is a good preview of my career and future. I am learning some important skills and finding out some things about myself and the tough skin I will need in order to stay in the area of juvenile support.

During the Fall Semester of my senior year at Ohio University, I had the privilege to be an intern at the Athens County Common Pleas court with Judge McCarthy’s office. My main duties and responsibilities during this internship were to organize, pull and put away court files. I also assisted in court recording while the Judge was on the record in the courtroom. This internship also allowed me the opportunity to spend time and see other aspects of the criminal justice such as Municipal court, Juvenile court, Domestic court and the Adult Parole Authority. Throughout my time in this internship, I saw and experienced things that sparked my sociological thinking. This specific court deals with a lot of drug related problems and as a result, they have had to develop methods for dealing with it. One such thing is the A.C.E (Athens country empowerment) diversion which is one of the rehabilitative methods the court has at its disposal. The other option the court uses is more punitive where they send people to jail or prison. The question that was always in the back of mind during this internship was if diversion programs or jail was a more effective tool at helping these individuals kick their abuse habits and reduce recidivism back into the court. Another aspect that I wanted to look at was if politics and funding play into the courts decisions to hand down a certain punishment. The last thing that I wanted to look at was if there were aspects of social learning within family’s that

I am emailing you in regard to my internship. I would like to document my experience so far because I am not sure if the supervisors at the Kearney Center have my best interest at heart. I am going to have an individual supervision meeting with the supervisors on Friday 26, 2017. During the meeting, I am planning to discuss my concerns. I want to inform you of what is happening so you are not unware.

After this internship made me realised how diverse engineering fields and there is so much new knowledge to learn, considering myself with electrical power engineering background working in construction site which may related on civil engineering field. When I studied the project plan documentations, there is some new term and I need to find extra information on the Internet myself to understand more about the ongoing project. Having said that, knowledge that I have obtained throughout my study in ECU proved to be useful such as basic CAD, mechanic and material courses during my first and second year which make me easier to understand the structure drafting of the floor plans.
