Reflection
By doing the disability simulations, I didn’t experience what it feels like to live with a disability; however, I did encounter new challenges and learned about my feelings. At times, I was frustrated, scared, and concern for my safety. While, simulating autism and schizophrenia disorders, I felt alone, uncomfortable and frightened. I found it easier simulating a physical disability than a mental health disability. Yet, during the physical simulations, I was frustrated. I could not complete tasks and I was worried about getting hurt. When simulating a stroke and VIB, I wished I had help. In contrast, simulating autism and schizophrenia disorder, I was so focused on the simulation, I didn’t think about getting help.

The SIMSOC program allowed our class to create not only small individual societies, but also one large society together in which every decision had an outcome that must be addressed in order to thrive. Such dynamics of a real society were put in place to ultimately show us how various social situations can have power us. Specific situations were set up before hand without us knowing and we unconsciously and impulsively conformed to certain roles and conditions.
Throughout the weeks our team has recognized the effects and methods to managing the system development within our bookstore. It’s true that the bookstore has endured growing pains of ways to better secure their information as well as the sensitive information of their customers. Our team has analyzed better ways to conduct our business as well as the processing methods that will be improved to meet our needs. By examining our business process we had to identify the functions that were causing problems or raising cost, rising risks or basically wasting time.
In today’s society, many try to steer away from talking about mental disabilities as best as they can. However, in some cases, they need to be talked about to develop a better and more accurate understanding for not only the disability and the effects it has on the brain, but also for those who are victims of these matters. The novel, Brain On Fire by Susannah Cahalan, addresses what those are afraid to talk about; the truth of mental disabilities. Cahalan’s story starts where any great story starts, in the bounds of her own home with her first real love by her side. Having a regular night watching PBS quickly turns into one of the most unimaginable nights, a nightmare if you will.
While implementing Primary Health Care models, identical to those in metropolitan areas, in a rural setting is not practical, I feel there is an obvious need to improve primary health care in remote areas. This is due to the significant health gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, in rural and remote areas
In my everyday world I don’t think twice about how I am going to get through the day. Waking up, getting dressed, and getting to school or work are very routine for me. I have been living life without thinking about how those with disabilities get through their day. What struggles they might see that I over look, such as brushing their teeth or eating a meal. So given the opportunity to experience just how these individual’s daily activities are with a neurological disorder helped me see just how lucky I am. I have always been interested in the neurological aspect of therapy, and so I decided to experience what it would be like to be someone with multiple sclerosis, or MS. I have never been around anyone who has multiple sclerosis, so this was all new to me. Before I could even begin to recreate multiple sclerosis I had to do some research on what it was.
Question #1: My fourth experience in the hot seat was the same as my third run. I received 85% which is the same as my third run. The only difference is that I did not get any sharps violation. I seem less nervous and I understand the steps and the procedure better than before. I was so happy after my run knowing that I did not get any sharps violation.
Over the past three weeks in the University of Phoenix Marketing Management class, I have completed three simulations based on real life marketing situations. The first simulation was titled, "Forecasting Market Demand." This simulation discussed the importance of determining the future demand for your product in the voice commanded software industry. The marketing team for the new Listensoft software needed to accurately forecast the production capacity of the new product and the pricing strategy. This task is especially difficult because human behavior is difficult to predict. Forecasting behavior " is about generating numbers out of expectations, opinions, statements, prior patterns and a host of other subjective elements" (Forecasting
I started playing minecraft for the 1.4.4 at the beginning I was interested only in the aspect of survival of the game with more than 64 wooden houses height and width 64 such a beginner minecraftien who don't is there not know. I started really playing minecraft from the 1.7.10 (I think), with all new systems that have been incorporated into this game.
Disability is a topic viewed differently by each set of eyes. To truly understand a disability, one must live through it or frequently view the lives of another, struggling with an infirmity. Living with a disability may be hard, but it does not mean it is not worth living. Nancy Mairs, author of the essay “On Being a Cripple,” has written about her views and experiences, explaining to the public the truth behind being a “cripple,” and proving that disease does not control you. Explained in the paper, able-bodied people make assumptions to how low quality life must be, living with a disease and that these individuals are constantly unhappy however
Over the past week, I have taken the time to reflect on what and how I participated in my mock paper. As a writer of three stories and production assistant, I would say I did my share and more, making sure to offer ideas and complete my part of the assignment. Although I did not have a leadership role, I offered to write a third article and find extra information to incorporate in the paper.
Explain how the development of your selected capability from Folio task 3 has help you to achieve your goals.
I would like write the incident according to John’s (2006) model of structured reflection. When I was working in aged care as a medication technician, one incident reported about medication error. It happened in an afternoon. One of our morning nurse staff given a medication to the resident and forgot to record it. She finished her duty and left at 1 pm.Another staff came for afternoon duty gave the medication to the resident again. At around 2 pm we got a call from morning staff and said she forgot to record the medication. Then only we came to know that, the resident got double dose of medicine. Duty nurse reported this incident to the management and drug error record faxed to the head office. Management called all the staffs
In the United States alone, one out of seven people has a disability. When we think of a disability, one automatically assumes it’s a physical disability like cerebral palsy, cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injuries from severe accidents like car accidents. However, there more disabilities than just physical disabilities such as intellectual and emotional. Intellectual disabilities range from difficulty recognizing letters and words which will lead to harder time reading and writing, number difficulty, to emotional disabilities
Throughout phase one we identified a topic and had an approach to a paper that we would be reflecting off of this whole year and soon building better research, but then we saw a lot of issues on my first paper. Even though I was not thrilled about these changed I had to make they have to change for this next phase two. Although I wasn’t happy with the grade I had received lets just say I learned a lot about what I can do differently to improve my writing, for this phase two. In my phase one I talked about how I use a lot of fillers for words, run on sentences and even some sentence structure fragments. In a paper these things are common and defiantly in mine they show up a lot. I will be trying to avoid some of these issues in the Problem Solutions essay that we are beginning. Some of my strengths as a writer in
The experience that I would like to reflect on this paper is that of Mr. Gregoris’ class participation in “witness talks”. We were each tasked in both the writing and the communication of our differing faith walks to the whole class. The objective of the activity was for each student to make their full introduction into the class, as well as open up about experiences and deep physiological challenges that they may have encountered in their lifetime. The ambience of the room during the witness talks is an interesting talking point, the room was dim, bordering on completely dark, however still had a quite calming feeling attached to it, reminiscent of being at home during a thunderstorm reading a good book. I went first and I wasn’t mentally prepared to go on the day, but nobody else was willing to go, so I decided to take the plunge. Subsequently following my actual talk, we also had to play music, to help us reflect on what we just heard, I didn’t have a song prepared or anything, so I just picked a random one, ironically it just had to be a song I was looking for, for a long time. Others went and shared their experiences and feelings, though I will not forget a few stories and I may never be able to unhear some others. At the end of the day, this was a congress of people connecting on an intimate level greater than what I would see from my own family. I saw the witness talks as a celebration of individuality and difference, especially in a world that sees humans as digits, stats and worst of all money. If even lifeless instruments, such as the flute or the harp, do not give distinct notes, how will anyone know what is played? (1 Corinthians 14:7).
