It provides me opportunities to mix professional practice with teaching and research. I anticipate that this will be a challenging journey, but my perseverance, determination and self-motivation will serve me well along the way. As will my ability to communicate with others, apply the knowledge I will gain, and learn from those around me. I will be challenged to improve my writing skills, but rather than seeing this as a weakness, I see it as a challenge. As a doctoral student, the key ingredients to success in the program will be to effectively manage time and maintaining a highly motivated disposition.

Practitioner (Practitioner, 2011) is defined as one who practices a profession. In the interlacing of the two words, I would consider a scholar-practitioner as a learned individual with extensive knowledge in a particular field who focuses on research, teaching, and learning. Wasserman and Kram (2009) found that the term scholar-practitioner seemed to include, for all their interviewees, a cycle of producing and consuming knowledge in service of
Making it simple and original are two important things to have in your paper.

The theoretical foundation of my discussion borrows heavily from Lacanian poststructural theory. Here again, I am attempting to gain a fuller understanding, not only of the relationship between language and subjectivity, but also the important roles that community (or collective discourse) and narrative play in the development of subjectivity. In addition to my analysis of Patrick, I also intend to situate the reader as a subject who gains knowledge through narration by identifying his/her own position within textual discourse. My reading necessitates viewing Patrick as the pivotal agent through whom the reader is encouraged to enter the fictional realm, seek and discover knowledge, and finally, carry that knowledge into the real world. In this regard my discussion is very much in the service of the social and political aims of Ondaatje's text.

To begin this paper, it is more appropriate to talk first about the method which Husserl fashioned in order for man to get back to the things in themselves, and this method is what he called phenomenological reduction.
