Reflective Statement

I was nominated for this course of study by the Criminology and Criminal Justice department at Glyndwr University. Once receiving notification I was both pleasantly surprised and excited. This is in-part due to my previous credentials which include professional experience in leadership roles in the hospitality industry, beauty industry and welfare-to-work sector. Based on my working history, the course is everything I expected it to be as I have always had a keen interest for gaining a better understanding of myself and others. My only criticism, is that I personally feel I would have gained more from the course by discussing the topics in more depth, therefore perhaps a course of longer duration may have been more beneficial for me.

men usually worked in urban centres while women were forced to stay in rural areas. Pass laws

Purdah system came to be strictly observed. Women education was almost banned. More and more sense of conservatism about women increased. She continued to hold not only low status in and outside the home and does not worsen their position at this

Different theories and ways of practising exist for counsellors, with reflective practice becoming more popular amongst practitioners. Dallos, & Stedmon (2009) state that for professionals working directly with people, such as counsellors, reflective practice has quickly developed into a fundamental component of training, and the best practice for creating successful outcomes. This essay will focus on how reflective practice is critical for professional life, and how the use of reflection and theory can be used by counselling practitioners to inform their practice.

The notion of curriculum is as vibrant as the fluctuations in the thought of society. In its narrow sense, a curriculum is merely a sorting of themes to be inculcated in school. In a complete sense, it implies the full learning involvement of individuals, not only in schools but in the community as well. Wider contexts underpin the execution of curriculum and reflect on the development of its content. These contexts require many considerations if the curriculum is to be effectively implemented. Many explanations scaffold curriculum. Therefore, the very notion of curriculum is, at times, considered fragmentary, elusive and confusing. However, light is shed on the meanings of curriculum through views, pedagogies, and political and cultural experiences (Caughley, 1928; O’Neill, 2005).

This essay will explore the methods, results\findings, and discussion of those who were interviewed by me as we did a reflective activity from the family wellbeing program using the topic life journey. There were two participants a male and a female. Each one of them was asked to do a time line of their life and, record some of the main events; the good and the hard times they have lived throughout they’re past life.

“I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.” (Carl Sandburg) Throughout the semester my english class had had a number of writing projects and also one design project. The first project was a paper on a time in our lives that had changed us or someone. Next, was a review on a how we felt about a movie, book, or tv series. The third paper was a article summary of a article in our field of study. The very last project the class was assigned was to design a poster for an event. The assignments that were assigned opened my eyes about myself as a writer. In this paper I will reflect on what I learned, my goals, and what I need to improve on.

In this reflective statement I am going to discuss about presentation I did together as a group and individually. The main aim of this reflection statement is to describe how I and my team mates worked while we took the responsibility to work on this project. The main reason for writing this reflective statement is to carry my experience of working in a team and how I managed challenges. The reflective statement is a personal record of my learning experiences. This journal is going to include my inspirations, how I came up with ideas to build up my work and my awareness of the position in which I work.

Reflection is they key to growing and developing any new skill. With teaching being such a complex skill that involves many layers of practice and theory, it requires equally in depth reflection in a variety of formats. Watching my teaching video in front of the class helped me get over my self-consciousness and provided me with a number of action points moving forward. I feel motivated from the character and lesson based glows, challenged by the management based glows, and directed by the detail oriented “next steps” that I received through this feedback session.

In the time when people were more focused on the gender of a person, there was a lot of disparity in the way that they treated each other. Men were held more

Only then does she become a sumangali, an auspicious woman, and a saubhagyavati, a fortunate woman."(p.8)

To be the ideal submissive wife, she was to take on her husbands values since he became the family’s patriarch. She was to display little knowledge of much and hold the same thoughts as well as ideas that her husband’s. It did not matter if she was just as well informed as the others in the room or if she had a different point of view than her husbands. It was simply unheard of for said differing point of view of or highly intelligent women to share what they thought or knew. The wife was meant to be submissive and subservient to the husband.

Creativity flows from our fingertips and consumes our bodies, allowing us to express our thoughts and feelings in a constructive healthy way. Life would be drab without creativity. Creativity brings people together and forces them apart in a beautiful and wretched process all at the same time. It amazes me how people can be nurtured in similar environments yet still have such unique and vast ideas and ways they express creativity. From this humanities class I have learned multiple ways on how artists use their creativity in structured forms to create their art. I can now tell when vanishing points pop up in my day to day life. For my future career, I will need to express a high level of creativity to be successful. I hope to become a dietitian, which means I will have to use my creativity every day to construct meal plans for patients. Nature and dancing have inspired my creativity. These two things go hand in hand in my life. Humanities has taught me that creativity can be found in anything and I have learned how to better understand myself and apply creativity to my personal life.

Birth order is a factor that allows a person to unveil the mysteries of human behavior. The Role birth order plays has been significant from ancient civilization to today. Many children born second in the family are physically inferior to the firstborn child. Therefore in ancient civilizations, many of the firstborns survived and mortality rates were low compared to children born after. In ancient civilizations, this could have been because the firstborns were considered precious and therefore they were nourished and treated better than the following children. The treating of the first child being precious can be seen in royal families as they have passed down the thrown to the firstborn while the second and third children do not receive anything.
