Understand The Importance Of Self Assessment

Everyday we ask ourselves, “Did I make the right decision?” Whether it is in regards to family, friends or co-workers we constantly do self assessments. Self-assessment is defined as a process through which individuals gain knowledge about themselves. This includes information about their likes and dislikes as well as their reactions to specific situations. By knowing more about themselves, individuals can be able to determine the work situations and occupations that are most appropriate for them. There are several lessons that can be learnt from self-assessment in relation to individual decision making. This research paper will examine reveal the lesions learned from self assessment. We will observe of the influence of the American

The description of the four types of personal orientation to others, named as competitors, individualists, cooperators, and equalizers is another way to understand our unique preferences and how we respond to others (Greenberg, 2013). This exercise indicated an individualist disposition with cooperators coming in second. Since the overall concern or motivation for an individualist is the outcomes related to self, the question now is regarding job motivation. How does this relate to the current job choice since this exercise ended in a self-revelation unbeknownst to me? Regardless of ones personal orientation, effective communication has key elements, which

The world population all around the globe are continuing to age, and live longer lives and are striving to live healthier and robust lifestyles. According to American Physiological Association ( 2001) by 2050 older adults aged sixty-five years and beyond is expected to triple. Nearly 60 percent.of this age group will have some type of mental health issues, for example depression, bipolar, eating disorder, alcohol and substance problems and Schizophrenia..

According to Conte, Weiner, and Plutchik, the average score for most people, regardless of age, is 8.5. My score shocked me a little because I would think I worry about death a lot but consider to this questionnaire I am not that concern. I scored a 3, it was lower than the average score that these researchers found. I believe my score was low because I am deciding to make plans for my future and if I decide to get marry and have children the will not have to worry about anything except live their life and work hard. I want to get all of my debt settled and pay out all the bills so that my family would not have to worry. I do not believe anyone would forget about me because there will always be photos and videos to remember me by whether it

I have received a professional bachelor degree in Finance, specializing in banking and insurance, where I have gained excellent theoretical and practical knowledge in finance analysis, management, accounting, statistics, and technology. Currently I am studying at XXX University to obtain MBA in International Banking and Finance. My expectation is that with an MBA, my strengths will position me to pursue a broader scope of practice within other fields than audit, and in a variety of settings beyond the financial services with which I am most familiar.

Over the quarter, I have completed 14 self-assessments that have opened my eyes to who I perceive myself to be and how this can affect my future career path. All 14 of these assessments focused on an aspect of my personality that is embedded and seen in how I view situations and how I conduct my daily life. I took the self-assessments very seriously and asked my family members and current housemates for feedback throughout this process. Some of these assessments confirmed my personal thoughts on the matter and few of the assessments opposed and revealed new qualities about myself that I had not thought of. Overall, this was a revolutionary experience and I would suggest thing process to anyone who wants a clear vision of him/herself.

Being able to self-assess will help me increase my critical thinking skills as well as helping me make better decisions in life. Self- assessments encourage me to learn new concepts about myself. I really liked taking these assessments because it lets you know exactly where you lack at and what your strengths are. As said in the recognize what new tasks and subjects i need to put a little more time in. Applying this information to my professional life is going to help me make responsible decisions when i'm working. Also while i'm working in a restaurant it helps me to work with diverse people. So in my personal life and in my professional life in going to work smarter not harder as i read in the orientation packet unit 2. Learning that self-assessment

The Qualitative Thematic Self-Analysis Research consists of listing themes and locate the data sources for the self-assessments and discussion topics. The data sources I retrieved are starting from week 7 to week 10. We compiled the information the self-assessments and was required to acquire specific information from these assessments and inputted under the relating theme.

My self assessment test made me think about myself in a new way. I’ve never sat down and thought about my weaknesses and strengths. By taking the assessment, I realize there are areas that I need improvement. I feel confident my strengths will help me overcome my weaknesses and be successful in my academic journey.

During our Read section (Bethel University, 2014) we were introduced to a self-assessment. This self-assessment was organized into thirty separate areas of concern. You were then asked to rank yourself between one and five, with five being good, on the perception of how developed you are in those specific areas. I felt this is a good way to reflect personally on your strengths and weaknesses. In completing this self-assessment I didn’t learn anything new, but did reinforce what areas I need to focus on improving.

This paper discusses the results of the self-assessment test that I recently took. In this paper, a look is given to some of the and most significant lessons that I learned about myself, pertaining to my personality, my skills in working with others and life within an organization. Following this, I discuss some of the biggest lessons that I learned about organizational behavior and my own personality traits. Finally, time is spent reacting to the article The Gospel and Personal Reflection and some of the ways that God has helped me to turn weaknesses into strengths.

I’ve learned many things through my work experience that will not only provide me with valuable, transferrable, resume skills, but also skills such as character growth due to the challenges I’ve faced in my work positions. Through self-assessment and critical reflection, I can truly appreciate some of the undervalued tools I’ve acquired through my work experience. I’ve learned that character consists of learned behavior, and you can build it throughout your life. The wonderful thing about character is that it is one of the few things in life that no one will ever be able to take away from me. In a society that is driven by results and profits, and less focused on the intrapersonal relationships and character we build in the workplace, I have undervalued the wonderful facets of my character that I developed. Without these character building experiences, I wouldn’t have honed my leadership skills. The values I adhere to: honesty, integrity, and knowledge are reflected through my leadership. I engaged in the entire process of leadership and I’ve developed the kind of personality and character that earns respect, esteem and a good reputation within my work environment.

I was able to take three assessments that were able to tell me about my interests, skills, possible jobs and education degrees that I could potentially pursue. The names of the three assessments are the: Strong Interest Inventory, Myers- Briggs Type Indicator and StrenghtsQuest. I’m going to take a look at my results for each assessment and compare the similarities as well as the contrast.

Self-assessment is an important aspect of teaching, as it allows the teacher to reflect upon the successfulness of the content of the lesson and the communication, along with the delivery of instruction and if each student’s learning was successful. Looking at each of these individually, there are specific components that a teacher should look reflect on and assess. When broken down, there is a better chance of determining where changes to a lesson, or to teaching, might be needed to make it more successful for learning. The first area of teaching to assess is the subject matter, which is one of the most important aspects to reflect on, as this has to be developmentally appropriate much more.

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.
