Self-Evaluation Paper

The classroom visit helped me understand how to communicate what I have learned in regards to preventative dentistry, into ways that the public would understand. Which overall encouraged me to better comprehend preventative dentistry as a whole. I found inspiration in the ability to educate those who are uninformed on the importance of oral health. I’m excited to share my skills as a dental hygienist to improve the lives of those around me, by meeting them where they are on their dental journey. I now have a sense of responsibility to help the community to maintain high oral health standards.

I was inspired by the content this week so much so that I incorporated digital storytelling into the UNIV 100 course I am teaching. One of the requirements for the course is to attend four outside events and write a one-page paper about each experience. The third paper is due within two weeks, and students have tended to dread the activity, waiting until the last minute to decide on the event and submit the paper.

Dental Hygiene is a multifaceted, science-based profession that requires thorough research upon implementation into the clinical setting of an operatory. It is no longer enough to define a dental hygienists role in oral health care in regard to someone that simply ‘cleans teeth’; dental hygienists of today provide a strong skillset in practicing with an evidence based research of knowledge and a continuance of eager to advance. In order for a dental hygienist to provide optimal oral health care an understanding of the most explored, and updated science findings must be consistent with the provided healthcare. Forward thinking, understanding of fundamental concepts, continual education courses, and application of recent and relative knowledge encompasses the dental hygienist that empowers a skillset through research advancement.

Upon completing this course, the dental professional should be able to demonstrate knowledge of the following:

Throughout this year in college an important challenge I faced was getting through the two semesters of Physics that I needed to fulfill my pre-med requirements. Having last taken physics freshman year in high school and only covered very elementary material, I realized very early on in my first semester that this was going to be my most difficult and time-consuming class. As a result of lacking a solid background of physics from high school, I began going to office hours two to three times a week and staying on top of the material. I then began to give myself more than enough time to complete assignments so that I could go to office hours and conceptually understand difficult concepts such as Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, electrical circuits,

Since I had the opportunity to record my speech, I was able to point out the strengths and opportunities for improvement more easily. One of my strengths is that I managed to speak at a normal pace. I tend to speak faster than usual when I am nervous because I want to finish in the shortest amount of time possible. In this speech, I was able to maintain a normal talking speed which helped to make my speech more listenable. I also used stimulus through my hand motions. It was not overbearing which can often happen but it was enough to make the delivery of my speech a better one. An opportunity for improvement that turned into a strength was the pause in my speech, I forgot what I was originally going to say but, I managed to

Self-evaluation is the process of evaluating yourself after completing either a project and/or task. The purpose of the evaluation is to review the project and/or task after it is completed to determine what was learned and if changes need to be made. Not always when someone does something do they learn all they could have or do it correctly the first time. It is from the self-evaluation process this determination can be made. Once the evaluation is complete the individual can move forward and make changes if need be.

participation in this seminar. Throughout this semester, I learned a great amount of information; this class became one of my favorite classes. The engaged, interactive nature of this class assisted me in learning. Participation is extremely important as it is the best way for me to learn. Bouncing of my classmate’s ideas, in in-class case studies and sharing ideas with the class was beneficial to my learning. This taught me the importance of collaboration and teamwork; something that is essential to my future in nursing. Some examples of specific things that I learned from participating in this seminar, was that substance abuse is due

This self-assessment and Reflection Paper is about the questions on page 109. The main arguments are ontological, teleological, and ontological.

I fulfilled my goals in taking this class because I had many opportunities to interview, write reflections, and analysis of the development of different age groups as I did journals. After working on those journals, I learned that there are several aspects influencing development such as cultural and personal factors. I also had a chance to work on the research paper relating to a life cycle issues and how it impacts and shapes a child’s development as well as their life choices. I was familiar with reading scholarly articles relate to this topic. Other goals that I fulfilled was I had chances to share my thoughts at the check-in every Thursdays, cooperate and share experience while working in group with diverse culture and background.

I will provide clarity in my direction toward others, as well as toward each individual’s awareness of their role and key objectives.

I would like to start out by telling you about myself to help you learn and understand who I am and the experiences I have been through. To do that, let me start off when I was 19 years old and I joined the Navy. I was trained in carpentry, masonry and general military knowledge. After 6 years in the Navy learning multiple construction techniques, discipline and even being deployed to Iraq I left the Navy and returned to Colorado. Then wanting to continue my education I enrolled at Metropolitan State University of Denver. After several successful semesters at the University I hit a rough patch not knowing which direction I wanted to go into school. Around the same time my parents retired and moved out of the country and my best friend and roommate was preparing to leave to study abroad in China. I ended up leaving school shortly after at the age of 25 unsure of what I wanted from life. I then started working as a server so I could pay bills and just survive while I thought about what to do next. Soon after I started working for a security company as a field manager putting the knowledge the military had taught me to use. After working this position for over a year I came to realize that, though I was very good at what I did it was not what I wanted to do for a career. I once again moved on and used the skills the Navy had taught me to get a position with a refinishing company doing skilled labor to refinish bathtubs, floors and counter tops. I enjoyed this work, but was

There are a rotation of twelve stations which include two rest stations in oral diagnostic clinic and each station has five minutes tasks. Each OSCE station consists of a clinical description and instruction for examinees to complete specified tasks in the time allocated and most stations have examiners who are the role to observe examiners’ performance and complete marks from checklists. However, all questions and tasks in OSCE should be examined validity and reliability before testing dental students (Turner & Dankoski, 2008).
