What I Learned By Losing My Job Every life-changing loss contains a cleverly disguised lesson. This loss often reveals parts of ourselves that we never knew existed. For me, this painful loss came fourteen years after I began working at The Daily Union, (our local newspaper). Tim Hobbs, the new publisher, called me into his office and dealt a devastating blow. The company was being restructured, and as a result, my position, as the graphic design artist of the HomeGuide real estate magazine, was
many things that I am as a learner. One thing that tells you what kind of learner I am is that I’m a decision maker. I learned that I am a decision maker, from one of the tests that Ms. Reffel had us do. The website said I was much more, but I was mostly a decision maker more than anything else. A different website said I was visual which I agree strongly with because I think when I learn it bothers me when I don’t see it in person or I think it’s harder to learn. Another test said I was multiple things
Something that I learned in Knowledge: Search for the Truth that changed me is how we perceive things. I thought this was the most interesting thing we learned in the class. I like how we as a society want to perceive things that we as humans like to hear. We like to hear stories and rather hear a better one than a bad one. So now I examine what I see and hear on TV because they tell us what the society wants to hear. Another thing I liked what we learned is the valley in Washington that no one knows
In my summary of the work I have done throughout the semester, I will like to go through each assignment and what I learned from it, as well as the impact it had on me a psychology concentration. All of the assignments proved to be valuable in some way to my learning, pushing me farther intellectually than I ever though I would in this class. Homework #1 was the refresher of statistics that we had all learned previously before coming into this class. I was personally happy we had this assignment
reflection paper I will be discussing the knowledge I acquired during this class, The skills I gained from that knowledge, and how I will apply these skills to my future. I will begin by discussing two specific pieces of information that I have learned from the class, and why it is important to my well-being. The first influential thing that I have learned from this class is how to incorporate cardio amidst doing strength training throughout my workout. When I had worked out before, I would simply do
In no less than 1000 words, please explain what you have learned from this incident. What was the most powerful aspect? During this process, I went through different stages where I learned different lessons. There were moments where I blame myself for not being able to detect this confusion in time. There were times when I blame the honors comity and my instructor for not believing me or for not seeing things the way I did. However, as time passed, I was able to reflect and see this incident from
What I knew: After many years of attending school I have noticed that most education based courses have remained the same. Some have remained the same but, others such as Science and English have drastically changed. For instance the idea of standardized testing was still being developed during my elementary years. In elementary school we used the breaking new technology of Smart Boards to learn. These boards allowed us to write, and erase on the board that was a projector. Then in middle
I have learned many things in school. I will like to tell about how I learned in school. I have improved my reading and writing in school. When I was little we’re learned the basic word in school. The teacher taught the students how to pronoun the words. I don’t understand the teacher talk to me when I first come to unite state. I went to school when I come here I remember the teacher but I don’t know her name she always followed me in school. She taught me how to reading. I improved my reading
Some skills that I learned in PD #1 was to speak out loud more and to step out my comfort zone. I hate public speaking because im super insecure about my voice and im afraid that people will misunderstand what I say and take it the wrong way. It happens to me often. But I learned that no one really cares as long as you voice your opinion right and say the things you want to say. You do what you have to do to take care of your responsibilities. Another skill I learned in PD#1 was to ask questions
An overview of what I learned in the course: The main thing that stood out for me was Universal Design for Learning, and how much “assistive technology” and “accessibility” tools benefits EVERYONE! There is no such thing as average! Even as adults we benefit from this approach! We learned about an overwhelming amount of resources, and I look forward to exploring more of them. Off the top of my head, some of the tools that stand out the most for me are: Google Chrome extensions (so many!), iPad accessibility
