I scored the highest in Sequence, in results to this, I use Sequence as a Use First level. After reading about Sequence, the test results became very clear to me. In school I like knowing all the directions, what the paper/project is to look like, what is expected of me, and feedback after my work is complete. At home, I am as my husband says OCD, I have to have certain things in order , otherwise I’m not the best to live with. When I am working on a paper, reading a book, or writing lists out, I need to have a clean and quiet place to work. I know Sequence fits me as a Use First, and I know I use this on a daily basis, but sometimes wish I was not like this at times. Mostly when I see myself get scatter brained when something is not in …show more content…
I can see where this is a Use as Needed, I like working with my hands, and fixing things such as toys, cars, household appliances, and anything else my children bring me to fix. I like seeing how certain instruments work, but I have to be able to put everything back together with no extra parts, or I start my process all over again. I love working alone, I feel as if I can accomplish more by myself. Even though I love working and solving problems alone, this tends to upset me as well. I want my children to be team players, I feel I need to work on that aspect …show more content…
I will go back through the book, and make sure I have the accurate facts, and references. I will identify my strengths, and weaknesses, specify where I need to intensify my Patterns, and examine how my paper will be presented. Technical Reasoning:
For my Technical Reasoning, I will be assembling my facts and paperwork, into a clear compact paper. Looking at how my paper will be put together, build it, and fix any mistakes I can find. Experience what I have learned I this course again, like it was my first time tearing down my mind. Then remind myself I can and need to do this. Confluence:
For my Confluence, I will brainstorm my ideas, and how I want to see them on paper. Take a chance at creating a paper that feels right for me. Take a chance, caption my readers, and show them how I have learned from this course, and may give them an idea about themselves.
B. Explain how you will Forge, Intensify, or Tether (FIT) your Learning Patterns to implement personal strategies so you can complete the Week Five assignment efficiently and effectively.
(If you do not need to FIT a Pattern, include a description of the strategies you naturally use which help you to be successful on these types of
This task should be fun and interesting for the students. It is my hope that this activity proves to be successful for my students and helps them to understand the necessary learning objectives set forth.
This tool states that learning is made up of four basic phases, which includes diverging, assimilating, converging, and accommodating, that gives one a better understanding of how they learn. The booklet claims that learning can be cyclical and four basic phases. These learning phases are described as a concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. The assessment asserts that knowing about your learning style can help you better understand how to maximize your learning, solve problems, work in teams, manage conflict, making career choices and how to improve
Personally, I have young children and I feel that it would be great to put my children through a workshop such as this one. T...
Clinical reasoning is an integral component of the occupational therapy profession. It is “the thought process that guides practice” (Rogers, 1983). The ability to effectively problem solve in a clinical work environment is a skill that must be practiced in order to master. In an ever-changing, diverse profession such as occupational therapy, it is imperative to remain knowledgeable and current of any changes or medical advances that may improve clinical competence. Clinical reasoning skills cannot be mastered solely with a textbook filled with examples of diagnoses and treatment interventions. Clinical competence is built on experience and opportunities to apply knowledge and learn from mistakes in a hands-on environment. Despite being exposed
What did you learn from this course? List at least 5 of them and discuss how you plan to use them for your work/home/relationships.
My takeaway from this study is that technology can be used in a positive or negative way. Also, the way you use technology can help you learn and gain new skills.
One of the most important skills that students need to learn is how to learn. Knowing specific techniques and strategies to help with learning can enable students to become strategic, effective, and lifelong learners (Sturomski, 1997). Strategies used for learning can be simple or complex, cognitive or metacognitive. Simple strategies are strategies that many of us use. Simple strategies may include asking questions, taking notes, or rereading a passage that is confusing to us. Complex strategies, on the other hand, may be a set of several strategies used together. For example, a complex strategy for writing might include three simple strategies of prewriting, writing, and editing. Each complex strategy includes several simple strategies in and of itself. Strategies can also be categorized as cognitive and metacognitive. Cognitive strategies help a person process and manipulate information. Much like simple strategies, cognitive strategies are very task-specific and are useful when learning and performing certain tasks such as filling out a chart and answering specific
I love working with kids. From babies who are only 6 months old that cry nonstop, to kids in their “terrible twos”, to preteens who are going through their phase changes, I enjoy spending time with them all. I myself am an only child, and can remember always asking my parents for a baby brother or sister. My wish never came true, which is why I cherish every opportunity I get when I am around children. I feel connected to children even if they are not related to me, which makes our bond so special.
The writing assignments I believe that will be difficult for me are the Targeted Application Package, Review
Final Reflection Question: And finally, I would like some reflection on your overall course experience. What have you found to be especially meaningful? What have you disagreed with? Was there an issue or a controversy that you became aware of in conjunction with this course content? Here are some specific questions for reflection. Please be brief, but concise.

...nt in time I am deeply ashamed and distraught about who I was as a student last semester. I am uncertain about the effectiveness of my study habits at this point in time, but I can clearly say that last semester's study habits were quite ineffective. In high school my habits where quite effective but not here at the University of Texas. I am trying to find a new method this semester, and am currently working on formulating a new method. One that actually works, for now I just have been working hard to complete my daily task and studying rigorously for all my classes. I have never had any formal instruction on how to be a strategic student, which leads me to lack confidence in my abilities. Most of my current methods I have developed on my own. I am hoping this class can help me develop the necessary skills to become a great student so I can excel in all my classes.
My personal favorite style of learning is via Interpersonal communication. I feel as though talking to someone about the subject at hand really helps me understand better. It also makes me feel more connected to the person I am discussing the issue with as I can hear not only what they have to say and the tone
Please describe some of the ways you have grown or expanded your thinking as a result of this course.
The second learning was related my goal to put myself first. This was much harder to follow and commit to doing as was meant in the action plan. The most difficult part was to speak out when I felt that now I needed to do something that was not in line with my objective. And even more difficult was when these events happened in my family environment (with people you care). One example in my action plan weekly note illustrates quite well the challenge. “During the week we had a moment when Katri (wife) invited her sister’s son to stay over the night, without consulting me (and she knows that I need to study). I felt overruled since I was in pressure to study during the night and it is not possible when youngsters hang around. I raised the topic
...nd friends. Make sure that during your strategy you set a time out for relaxation, eating and sleeping properly. Another part of strategy is to multi-task, use "the Twofer" concept, for example if you are going to the Laundromat take your homework with you.
