Although I do not have an occupation I wish to pursue, I do have an idea of some occupations that would be suitable for me. Through Matchmaker on Career Cruising I have found a few occupations that are suitable to me based on my preferences, these include an ESL teacher, a foreign educator and a middle school teacher, which are all part of the cluster education and social services. Some skills I have that is suitable for these occupations would be Explaining and listening. These skills are suitable for this cluster because in education it is important for the teacher to listen to the opinion of the students, and it is important for the teacher to explain the material being learned so the students understand. An experience I have of teaching would be leading in the scout group I attend. Since I am a senior scout, I am expected to help the younger children when they are having difficulties.

The purpose of self-assessment is to find strengths and weaknesses in oneself. When a strength is found, the person can find ways to further improve it. When a weakness is found, the person can reflect on it and figure out ways to improve the weakness. Some weaknesses I have are in collaboration and initiative. To improve my collaboration I can try to be more involved in class discussions, which includes volunteering to answer questions. Another way to improve my collaboration would be to share my ideas more. This means during group work, I should share my ideas instead of just listening to other people share their ideas. To improve my initiative would be to further my thinking. This means that when I come across something I find interesting in class, I can go home and research more on that topic. Another way to improve my initiative would be to respond better to risks. This means that the next time I am faced with a challenge I should face it positively instead of trying to avoid
Everyone is brought into this world as innocent and pure. But events that follow a person in life can change their perspective on the world, and make them start to question if the things they have learned about human nature are true. This scenario can be used to describe the life of young Jean Louise Finch (Scout) in the novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.

I believe that there is room for self-assessment within a profession because every individual has room to grow for professional growth. An area of professional development that I plan to work on, is being able to effectively to talk to a client without showing judgement or bias. Learning generalist skills has helped myself learn that body language, tone of voice and word choice affects how a client could feel about the social worker. There have been times where I know that my tone of voice has caused individuals to perceive my words in the wrong way. Creating bias causes the client to not trust the social worker and then there is a loss of active participation within a social work setting. Another personal area of needed professional development includes working one on one with clients in a smaller setting. My desire within the social work profession is to work at a micro level, which entails direct contact with clients. In micro one on one settings, I need to be comfortable with my process recording tools. Silences can be effective within a small setting because this gives clients time to reflect on what has been said. The goal of eliminating silences between clients and myself is to know how to talk to a client individually, without hesitation or worry. Knowing that I have time to work and grow gives me hope that when I enter the social work

This also involves reflection on areas I could further develop. Such as using feedback from colleagues to develop professionally.

Engaging in this process and accepting that feedback makes me feel vulnerable and often leads to defensive behaviors. By completing the self-assessment, I was able to identify I must further develop within this
After completing all the exercises from the book. I generated a self-assessment of various things I learned about myself. Such as, what type of thinker I am and how well I use my critical and creative thinking skills in my daily routine.

Whether one wants to look at someone else’s life or examine their own, it is important to decide whether or not it was a meaningful life that was worth living. No one wants to leave this earth knowing that they didn't do anything special with their life. What it means to live a meaningful life can differ among different people or different cultures. However, perhaps the biggest influence is education. Education absolutely plays a huge role in contributing to a meaningful life.
Assessment is all about making judgements. A major argument for involving students in self and peer-assessment is that it helps them to develop the ability to make judgements, in particular about themselves and their work. This is an important life skill as well as an academic one.
The self-assessment shows you what areas you are strong in and what areas need some improvement.

The career that interests me is a kindergarten and elementary school teacher. In the Nebraska Career education model, this career is under Human Services and Education, which is a match with my NCC assessment results.

Each lesson plan must include several areas in order to complete the standards required by the state in which you are working in.
