My interest is Pharmacology has grown considerably since I read and researched the work of James.W.Black and his discovery of the drug named ‘Propranolol’. I learned that the drug is still a major part of medicine today especially in cardiovascular diseases e.g. hypertension and protecting the heart further in those who have angina or have had a heart attack previously. From learning about this, I realised that discovering one drug can have a major impact on the world of medicine.
During my AS Chemistry course, I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the ‘Instrumental Analysis’ topic and using mass spectra and IR spectra to identify chemical structure. I found ‘Stereoisomers’ in Organic Chemistry very fascinating as one aspect we learnt about

One example is my ability to analyse and interpret data and put it into an appropriate form e.g. tables, graphs etc. My organisational skills greatly increased during this time as I had to put the specimens into the filing cabinets in the Herbarium, in order of year collected and also by vice county in which they were found. My communication skills also improved as another pupil on work experience and I had to work together in order to find the specimens, put them in order and then record the information on the databases, which also meant transferring a piece of data from one spreadsheet to the next as it had missing/wrong information on there and needed to be updated. My Welsh Baccalaureate project has also helped me enhance my communication skills both verbally and written. I have presented a number of presentations which helped me understand how to engage the audience and how to speak clearly and confidently. I have written evaluations on each stage of my project, from this I was able to write concisely without missing important information out. I have also learned how to reference my work properly; a valuable skill which I will need in
The analysis is therefore one of the most effective methods of ensuring that each drug being prescribed to patients is safe. It also ensures that all drug components are understood in terms of their structure and chemical behavior. This understanding is very important in the manufacture of drugs and other pharmaceutical products.
This assignment will discuss the professional, legal and ethical issues related to the self-use of medication by nurses. It will also explore the importance of reporting this misconduct by both professionals in the scenario and how they might do so. The self-use of medication by nurses is not allowed or justifiable according to the guidance provided to nurses by An Bord Altranais (ABA 2007). It will also be evident throughout this assignment the need for Jack to report Linda’s self-use of the medication or urge Linda to do so regardless of the consequences it may present to both him and Linda as according to Nurses and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI 2013), nurses can now be held responsible for not taking action. This is because delivering the greatest level of care to a patient is an essential role of a nurse and the main focus of the nurse’s work should be on caring for that patient (ABA 2010). There is also an ethical duty upon both nurses to report the misconduct according to the four ethical principles; Beneficence, non-maleficence, justice and autonomy (Edwards 2009).
After doing LSA 3 and 4, which were interview template and biography, I understood what I had to do for MWA2. At this point, my understanding of Rhetorical Situation and Genre(SLO A)(SLO A) were vastly broadened, I could now analyze, compose, and create any arguments and situation and on any topic. Another paper was also due at the same time when MWA1 was due the Reflection paper where we had to reflect what we wrote like what I thought my audience expected of me ,what piece of information from my memoir will be most interesting to them and so on. I was given an opportunity to reflect on my writing and what I learned by writing the assignment. When I reflected my writing I realized my mistakes the major mistake I did was I first did the memoir and then I tried to find out my audiences ,tone and other but what I had to do was the exact opposite and then I remembered my in class assignments where I had already learned this things so I had to do the whole memoir again. It also pointed out some of the other errors I had in my writing. After knowing this, I am confident that these mistakes will not repeat again. When I changed my style of writing I realized how effective and easy this way of writing is this is how I learned Writing as a process using reflection I could track my progress and know what more can I do and include in my writings to make it more
As a result I believe that the progress I have made in my writing during the course of English 1B has changed my negative views of writing. As silly as it may sound to say that my fears about writing papers have been defeated, they have. Whether they are short reviews or extensive research papers, I have become more comfortable in writing. I have not only learned how to write and express myself more effectively, by organizing my critical thoughts, but most importantly I have learned that review and revision is an essential part of the writing process. This process how allowed me to grow to become a better writer. The skills I have acquired can be used for future coursework and beyond.
I have helped me to become a better communicate and listen. I have learned to interact with parents, administrators, school faculty and others. As a teacher, I have learned to be compassionate towards others. I have learned to have different ways and techniques to solve a problem. I learned to always have second plan and to think outside the
This semester in english composition 101 we have learned many techniques to master the writing process. From the first day I walked into the class I definitely feel that techniques and goals that were set definitely have been accomplished. Peer editing to the workshops and many more activities done in class is what 's made my writing skills improve. The larger idea that i 'm taking from english composition 101 is the importance of the significant steps in the writing process. Having the opportunity of getting feedback from the peer reviews. One of a couple of workshops that stood out to me was learning about the paragraph organization in a paper. For my portfolio I will be including writing process in the projects two, three, sources used in the class that I

While reflecting on how I used the writing process to benefit myself as a writer, the learning outcome was most
...cessary for feeling confident in my writing and completing my essay three. As I complete my portfolio, my main focus is to emphasize the improvements of my writing by placing my worse essays first, followed by my best essays. This process will not only show how well my writing has excelled over the semester but also it will show that the peer review and conference sessions were very beneficial. This course has made realize that I love to write, as opposed to just being good at it. As far as any other information that I feel that shows my improvement as a writer I would like to include any and all of the information that from the reading assignments as well as any in class information that has helped with my writing skills over the semester. The reading assignments have been instrumental, because they help to give me a framework for what I am supposed to be writing.
The days I used to learn organic chemistry in school, I just took it to be the worst topic in chemistry syllabus. This is because I didn’t see any beneficial aspect outside the class work, laboratory and passing the examination. Today, if I had a chance to be taken back to class I would ensure I have learned the best I can that I have seen and experienced the practical part of organic chemistry in the real world. My thinking about the organic class can be fully positive by spending my leisure times I the laboratory and reading organic chemistry journals and magazine. I wasn’t a chemistry lover; I hated everything to do with chemistry.
I believe it is important for any student who wants to do their best in a class to take a moment to evaluate their own work to determine the rate their writing is progressing and how they can continue to advance their writing. When I looked through my own work I asked myself “what have I learned this semester?” and “what do I still need to learn in order to improve my writing?”. Answering both these questions will help me with my last step of my self-evaluation, developing a plan to learn new skills.
Over the course of the semester, I feel that I have grown as a writer in many ways. When I came into the class, there were skills I had that I already excelled at. During my time in class, I have come to improve on those skills even more. Before I took this class I didn’t even realise what I was good at. This is the first class where I felt I received feedback on my writing that helped me to actually review my work in see what areas I lacked in and where I succeeded. Some of the skills I had shocked me as I didn’t think I had those capabilities in me.
During this experience I was able to increase my ability to adapt my style of communication to make it effective for the children. I have taken part in maths mentoring where I taught students who were struggling with maths doing this has improved my communication skills and has also helped me expand on my maths skills Throughout my experience at a pharmacy increased my competency to multi task and assist customers During hospital visits I have realised nurses do more than just give care they understand. a nurse does what a patient would do if they had the strength, this was told by Virginia Henderson. I looked up to this women as she was an influential nurse and I aspire to be like her.
In this report, I will reflect on my professional development throughout this module, from when I started in September, to now. According to Beausaert et al. (2011), ‘the art of self-evaluation is an integral element of reflection and involves critical insight into understanding one 's strengths and limitations’. Therefore, my aim is to identify my learning needs and to recognise my personal skills and capabilities, as well as identifying areas of my skill set that need to be refreshed or extended to stand out in the competitive job market. By doing this, I hope to demonstrate knowledge of the skills that I have gained during this module.
