Strengths Quest Reflection Paper Strengths Finder Themes Portia Tinsley Concordia University Chicago Abstract This paper is a reflection of my Strengths Quest, Strengths Finder Insight Review. The Strengths Quest is a test that helps students, staff, and faculty achieve academic, career, and personal success (Strengths Quest). The test took about forty minutes and was about 120 questions about which way we would lean towards in a certain situation, it helps us to better understand our personality. Each question gave us twenty seconds to answer it going either way with strongly agreed, partly agree or neutral which was in the middle. This paper is going to be about my top five themes that I got from taking the test.

1. Introduction In the world of business, statistics are used to make decisions so that business can keep pace with the times. Similarly, education needs to be improved by studying the data collected from students. Thus, this formal report will summarize, analyze and interpret the dataset relating to 705 students who learnt BSB123 in a past semester in order to help universities to provide better educational experience and outcomes. It will firstly outline the distribution of students’ final exam results, and then explain how the factors such as gender, degree, quiz results and report results affect exam by summarizing, analyzing and interpreting the relative data.
It means that students can take responsibility for some of their own progression. Students can ask themselves what am I learning and how can I do it better. Giving students constructive feedback will allow them to recognise how they can progress and achieve the next step in their learning. Having confidence that all students can improve. Both the teacher and student are involved in the reviewing process and can reflect on the assessment information.
Current Student Placement: The student’s current teachers from the respective academic areas make recommendations in course placement level for the upcoming school year. They take into account the student’s academic ability and study habits. Teachers consider each student individually, striving to match the student with the course level in which he/she will be both academically challenged and motivated to succeed. Level Changes: A student may request approval for a level change by the end of the 6 week of the first semester and again up to two weeks after the second semester begins. Requests will not be allowed for level changes outside of these times.

Students failed the second test as well. Extensive instructional review of capitalization rules may be needed. Current Conditions versus Desired Conditions Currently students do not understand any of the capitalization rules. The desired condition would be for all students to capitalize the beginning of every sentence, capitalize the pronoun I, capitalize proper names, days of the week, and the months of the year. Discussion of the Data Instruments Used The data instruments used existed records and an observation checklist.
* Based on the best evidence, consider the implications of failing a student * Critically reflect on the consequences of “Failing to Fail” Demonstrate recordable evidence of mentorship update which is relevant to remain on the mentor register database Identifying the Underachieving Student: Most students successfully achieve their learning outcomes on placement. However, some students do not perform at the expected level and evidence suggests that mentors find this one of the most challenging aspects of the mentoring role Duffy and Hardicre (2007). Many contributing factors can influence how to deal effectively with this aspect of the mentor’s role such as: * Uncertainty about expected levels of competence. * Allowing a settling in period * Time constraints * Conflicting shift patterns * Lack of confidence in dealing with the issue * Lack of support for the mentor. Mentors often have an instinctive feeling early on in the placement about a student performance but may have difficulty in articulating or describing what is often a vague concern.
