Academic term

Nursing program at The College of New Jersey due to my performance in Principles of Microbiology (BIO 144) and Anatomy & Physiology II (BIO 142 ), which are major Nursing prerequisites. I take responsibility for my academic progressions and understand the consequences and rewards of the Academic realm. The study habits that allowed me to flourish in high school, for example, studying class notes and reviewing a week before the exam, simply did not work in college. This forced me into a state of panic,

Citizen Education Reflection At the beginning of the second semester I didn’t know what exactly to expect from Cited as a class. I had heard that it was a lot of work, that Mr. Cangello could be a hard grader, and to pay attention if you wanted to keep up. As the semester got into full swing and I started to get a better feel for my classes, I realized, not a single part of these warnings had been false. After many warnings about plugging in our laptops in an orderly fashion, and testaments to

When I started the 2015 Fall semester things were going swell I was very excited to start college and to start learning.I was very much more interested in figuring out what would be the best major for me to select.Going to college was something I wanted to do because I felt like it was the best option for me to find a career and a job I would love doing.While attending classes my mom started dealing with injuries and started experiencing pain with her right knee.I soon learned that bad knees, runs

When I enrolled in English 330, Writing in Education, I was apprehensive. Over the years, proofreading has been one of my strengths which may be a great attribute, but the challenging part has already been accomplished, writing the paper. So, although I absolutely love to research and write about my findings, I have always found it to be a struggle writing essays. The words seem to come easy in my head, but when the time came to write or type those words into sentences was the most difficult. Even

In my sexual health class, we talked about sexual orientation. We had two guest speakers, one was a lesbian that was engaged and a transgender from a man to female. The lesbian speaker talked to us about how her journey went when she came out to her family and friends that she was a lesbian. She said it was not easy, but over the years her family started to support her decision of being with the same sex. For the transgender male to female had a different story. He was the only child and only had

This year our administration is allocating times during staff meetings and inservice days to work on teacher-led focus groups. Educators were encouraged to submit initiatives or ideas that they felt would be valuable in improving our school. I submitted a proposal for a focus group that would be responsible for determining a plan of action and curriculum for creating student-led IEP meetings. We also agreed that we would create a timeline that would specify what most students would be expected to

Yet another effort to achieving my goals. With short timing, I managed to maintain my pace, to overcome many obstacles. Have my mind on the big picture towards the long run. I’ve been avoiding distractions so I can become successful through my courses in college. I’ve come to learn from varies mistakes that others have encountered along the road such as dropping out along the way. Improving my study habits made me realized how important education can come to be. Having the dedication, and willingness

Dear Director of the First-Year Program, For the past few weeks, I have been watching video lectures from MIT’s introductory science courses. The information presented in these lectures is new and interesting. The format of these courses, however, is not. In every case, a professor stands at the front of a room full of students and spends an hour spewing information. Aside from the occasional question from a student, it is entirely one-sided; the class must simply passively absorb the content.

get piled up stressing about what might be, I will not be giving my best to anything. As a senior it is so easy to hop on the senior slide and lose interest. By staying motivated and focused on the present, I will have the energy to have a strong academic finish. Spiritually, I am going to take the time and reflect on my accomplishments and contemplate my life after high school. I have worked hard and challenged myself with a wide

Most people think highly of online classes; get to work from home, get to work on a flexible schedule, and anyone can do it. Though no one has heard the cons of taking one. I personally took three semesters of online classes in high school and had a horrible experience. Because of loose scheduling, poor communication, and the focus needed, online classes are not suitable for procrastinators. To give a better understanding, I will summarize my experience with the class. Me, being a procrastinator
