When I originally was registering my class choices for the Fall 2016 semester, I considered English 111 to be an undemanding course that I could pass without a lot of effort on my behalf. I had no trouble passing prior English courses, years ago, so I felt this course would be similar. What I had not anticipated was how much I honestly could learn, such as: how you should properly cite sources, how you should suitably prove your thesis and how you can accurately set up the flow of a paper. Although, the most informative part of English 111, for me, has been absorbing all the information on the different styles of papers that can be written. I believe that recognizing the usefulness of distinctive varieties of papers will help me throughout
The main reason is it’s location, it's in the same state I live in so tuition is lower and it's not a far trip away from home. Another reason is the track record for the school it has one of the highest veterinarian programs in the country. The school has all the right tools to help become the best veterinarian.
I have come to the decision that Washington State University is the college that I am most interested in. After filling in the college chart table, I am pretty certain that this is the right college for me, and the only one I really want to go to. There are certain factors that affected my decision making process when the time came to choose a college. These factors include but are not limited to: location, majors and minors, scholarships, graduation and acceptance rate, and campus life.
My first semester as a college freshman is finally coming to an end. This semester has been the start to a new chapter in my life and I am glad to have finally finished my first semester on a high note. Coming into college I never knew what things would be like and how would I adjust. All I knew is that I wanted to succeed and eventually graduate college. The courses I have taken this semester have had big impact on my learning and my future. Assignments that taught skills and lessons to be used in the future. I have learned skills such as being able to collaborate in groups because of projects in ASU 150.
I chose West Virginia Wesleyan because they offer me something that a lot of colleges don’t provide. West Virginia Wesleyan provides me with a 4- year degree in veterinary Medicine. I have been told personally that they will provide me with all the information that I need to know, so that I can engage my career in becoming a veterinarian. They also have a tremendous Biology degree. The school is a private district; so the
Hi! Let me introduce myself. I am Marley Bangert, I will be a senior next year at Madeira High School, and next year I will be taking CP English Twelve. Throughout this past year in American Literature I learned that a lot can change in a school year. So much about my writing skill and my reading comprehension has improved throughout these past 9 months.
Through National Honor Society, I was connected with the Literacy Network and was given the opportunity to tutor students at Carson Elementary, a local inner city school. Tutoring at Carson is the most gratifying moment of my week and I always leave feeling that I've made an impact on a child's life.
I have been in National Honor Society for a few months now and have participated in a couple of community service projects. The community service project that I'm most proud of and has had the most significant takeaway for me is when we helped gave food and clothes to the people that stayed in the community. Taking Care of Our Own Day is an event where people come and get clothes and food for the family. As a volunteer I helped carry people's bags of food while they went around looking for what they needed. This event is done yearly and each year we have more people that come and receive our charity. This experience affected me in a great deal. It not only showed me that I was blessed for having food to eat and clothes to wear but also that
The crucial purpose of any student is to learn expertise and experiences throughout their lives and utilize those expertises in the working world and I plan to use those expertises early on in the university community to hone my expertise and learn new experiences for myself and alongside others students. And to show what the life of a university students truly is.
After attending an information session, doing my own research, and talking to a friend who attended a similar program at Western U, I knew I should apply to the Western U College of Graduate Nursing program. Because of preview day, I could really feel how much care and compassion the faculty was in showing us the numerous resources offered, the knowledgeable and skilled professors, and their care to produce the best nurses to patients and healthcare. WesternU is the perfect school for me because they understand student’s struggles. They take into consideration that not all students are the same and they had different current student speakers to give us details on their journey to and in the program. The students all came from different cultural and
My writing history is nearly non-existent and attenuated me when corresponding with others. Throughout my childhood, I went to various schools, normally completing a year and then being forced to attend a different school often due personal reasons. My high school wasn’t a traditional school, but an Accelerated Christian Education (ACE) self-paced environment. We basically had to teach ourselves the curriculum by reading, understanding, and taking examinations at the end of each individual course work. The school had a teacher; however, I referred to her as a “supervisor” since she couldn’t teach anything. Bluntly put, I taught myself all my studies such as algebra, world history, and physics, but I never learned anything about writing or writing in specific formats. WRTG 101 should be the first required class for
Considering the focus students both made progress, I do believe the differentiation plan was effective. Focus Student 2 made progress and met the learning goal. She increased her score by 20% completing the assessment with 80% accuracy. Teaching the student an additional strategy to confirm the correct response forced her to slow down to complete each problem. Focus Student 1 also made progress and met the learning goal with the differentiation plan in place. She increased her score by 20%. Completing the assessment on a white board reduced anxiety in the student. While the data did not necessarily show an incredible increase in accuracy, the student visibly looked more relaxed completing the assessment. Given the baseline assessment, I could
The Spring semester 591E- Research and Professional Applications is an internship course. This is an optional course to meet the requirements for the Master of Management of Library and Information Science (MMLIS) program. However, to participate in the course, I had to secure an internship site location within the first four weeks of the course and complete a minimum of 80 hours by the end of week twelve, March 28, 2017. With no previous experience working in a library, I felt that the internship course was a great opportunity to apply course knowledge to work application.
At NC State, we taught USC 104 which was for undeclared student0-athleted to address additional concerns about majors and careers. We hosted a major-round table event that brought in various professors/deans from all of the majors on campus. This event allowed students to learn about the expectations and prospects of the major. They were also assigned a final research project on a career they were interested in.
Every fourth-year teacher trainees will have to conduct practicum and will work under the guideline of their associate teachers and supervisors. The purpose of doing the practicum are to put training into practice, to become accustomed to teaching in the tertiary school settings, and to develop and expand each trainee’s teaching expertise and confidence. In the following paragraph, I will express what I have learnt from doing practicum to reflect on my past teaching strengths and weaknesses from the teaching practicum.
