    When an ODP job in advertised the prospective candidate must be registered with the Health and Care Professions Council(HCPC) (Health Education England, 2014f); the regulatory body set up to maintain a register of health care professionals from certain roles within the NHS (Health Education England, 2014g). Before I am entitled to register with the HCPC I must meet a criteria designed to ensure I meet the necessary standards for the role I intend on practicing in (Health Education England, 2014g). The best way to satisfy these standards is by completing an approved programme that automatically entitles me to registration and put me one step further to becoming an ODP (Health Education England, 2014g). An approved programme for an ODP registration would either be a Diploma of Higher Education or a Bachelor of Science degree course; with the latter being a relatively new option that has begun to be offered by universities (Health Education England, 2014g). My goal is to become an ODP is shortest time possible, making the diploma course a better op...

    Writing is an important part of everyone’s life, whether we use it in school, in the workplace, as a hobby or in personal communication. It is important to have this skill because it helps us as writers to express feelings and thoughts to other people in a reasonably permanent form. Formal writing forms like essays, research papers, and articles stimulates critically thinking. This helps the writer to learn how to interpret the world around him/her in a meaningful way. In college, professors motivate students to write in a formal, coherent manner, without losing their own voice in the process. Improving your writing skills is important, in every English class that’s the main teaching point; to help students improve their writing skills.

    Students in higher education are expected to be responsible for the management of their own learning, learn domain specific concepts as well as acquaint themselves with a range if transferable cognitive skills that enables them to learn how to be successful in future (Dransfield, 2004 p.39). It is very important for higher education students to become self-managed learners as it enable them to learn for themselves giving them a chance to achieve more, enjoy their work and produce original work. One of the most important goals of self-managed learning is helping learners move forward such that they can become typical self-managed learners. Being self-managed is a very important skill in the modern job market as most employers look for employees who can effectively manage time and projects independently. As Dransfield (2004 p.39) argues, the ability of a student to demonstrate self-managed learning is a very important outcome of professional development regardless of the fact whether it is in the basis of a workplace or college learning facility.

  • Reflection Essay

    1600 Words  | 4 Pages

    Much like Benjamin Franklin believed, I feel that a person should take advantage of the time the person has in life with activities a person wants to do or needs to do. A person should not spend much time on activities the person does not want to do. Life is way too short to concern oneself with work or other activities one wants nothing to do with all the time. When possible, I try to forget about my responsibility and just let go of the ‘things’ that do not matter to me. I think a person should try to occupy oneself with something productive, worthwhile, or necessary at all times. Even though a person’s life is left up to a person to live, I cannot imagine thinking that I owe my time to society through working a job that I simply despise. I am a compassionate person, but I do not owe anyone anything regarding my time.

    For instance, I have learned that just simply reflecting on what I am seeing in the classroom is not enough that I have to comprehend and gain knowledge about the classroom in a more profound and meaningful way, such as relating observations to theories and psychology studies. Also I have learned to reflect more deeply on what is going on around me, not just looking at what is at the surface. I took notes during my observation. I tried to not only write what was happening, but also why it was happening and tried to convey any thoughts or feeling the students, teacher or myself had. Lastly, in my reflection, I improved my reflection skills by asking myself questions, such as, “what would I do,” “how would I do it,” and “how would I react?” Then, I would reflect back on what I had learned throughout the semester to see if I could find the most appropriate
