Voting for me would allow them to have a better secretary for the rest of the year and possibly a better representative next year. By voting for me to go to CASL, my classmates would benefit because we would have a better & experienced leader in their class. I have shown major commitment and dedication to both leadership and my class. Every single day (even Mondays), I am early and ready to learn how to become a better leader. I have also been at almost every single workday the freshman class has had for all required events.
Her learning was severely crippled by the lack of stimuli through new and different experiences. The way I process information has been a combination of the knowledge I acquire through academics along with the unique experiences in my life. Decision-making is usually a gradual process, not an epiphany. I have found it works better for you to think of life as having a series of gambles where you don't really know and you're trying to learn from these experiences. I have found that the way I make decisions and view the world has been shaped by a select group of people.
After being in the classroom and learning so much classroom training, teaching skills and classroom management for 7 years as a Child-Specific Aid/Paraprofessional, I am ready for the academic and financial commitment of attending college. I know deep within my heart I have a passion for teaching and it’s time for me to have my own classroom to educate students. How can goal setting and time management help you reach your goals? Short term goal setting, time management along with gradually limiting procrastination, and tutoring will help me achieve my goals. Measuring and taking pride in my achievements will allow me to be more focus on the importance of my goals.
Even though social learning approach and behaviorist approach were made to make us understand how human behaviour works either by modeling or rewards and punishments from environment that we live on, they not just have advantages but also have disadvantages. Some of the strengths of the social learning approach is that it’s an experiment therefore it's suitable when trying to measure human behaviour, we can easy understand his accurate method, realistic view of people and concern with the social implications in human behaviour. One of the biggest disadvantages of this approach is that does not take into account physical and mental changes of the person and does not take in account that people can see one only situation from different point of view for example some people think that be a musician is something rewarded, but other may think that is a loss of time. On the other hand we have the behaviourist approach that suggest that the human behaviour depends of what we learn by association or as a result of reinforcement, this theory has successfully applied classical and operant conditioning to its theories, we can easily understand is accurate method, for example one the experiments are objective, measurable and observable. An example of this is Bandura's bobo doll study of aggression with children.
This course had provided me with the opportunity to teach this program effectively to students within five weeks. Yes we learn through experience, but the majority of what we learn comes through reading. Developing a passion, for reading will lead to a successful educational experience. Even though to
Personal Model of Helping Dezeree Matinez BSHS 311 April 11, 2011 Leonard Smith Personal Model of Helping I developed my personal model of helping from my life experiences and other people’s experiences around me. Viewing other people’s afflictions from an outside, rational point of view has helped me to, not only understand a little bit of how people think, but to realize things about myself. Learning the different theories these last five weeks has helped me to put my own theories into words and make it easier for me to articulate. My View of Helping Others My personal model of helping is eclectic. I definitely believe in Carl Rogers’ theory that a therapist should have unconditional positive regard for his or her client.
My ethical blind spot is my belief that motive justifies the method or overconfidence in the process. I rely too much on the system of ethics and to do what it is supposed to do, but I can overcome this by thinking outside of the box and understanding that the system itself is imperfect. It is designed that way intentionally so that it can be adjusted for each individual that follows it. The system is designed to bend not break so that we all come to the same result we just might take a different path to get to it. For example, copy right laws if you use an artist song to make a track of your own but it has pieces of their song in it you must give them credit by posting a disclaimer with it or risk being sued.

For a more explicit understanding, doubt by definition is the uncertainty of belief or opinion that often interferes with decision-making. Knowledge by definition is the acquaintance or familiarity gained by sight, experience, or report. The correlation between the two is that the more you doubt, the more knowledge you gain because instead of being focused on one certain conclusion, you start thinking about other possible outcomes. This is due to the fact that we use doubt, as well as being open-minded. Being open-minded means to be receptive to arguments or ideas.
Material evaluation should become a need for ELT practitioners, as not many of us have the chance to choose our own material to teach but on the contrary, most of the time, we are given a set of materials to use in our classrooms. According to Tomlinson (2003) “materials evaluation is a procedure that involves measuring the value (or potential value) of a set of learning materials”. The real challenge though, is trying to find a way to make those materials fit our students’ needs and context. For this assignment, I was required to analyze and evaluate the efficiency of some materials from my course book and select some appropriate material to include as a supplement. I will explain the rationale behind the selection of this supplementary material and then will teach a lesson using it.
