This course interests me greatly because the current ICT business is now becoming the developing future and I believe it is a flourishing business to be involved with. I have been involved in the use of ICT and computers from the age of 6. Since then I have been fascinated with the workings and operations of a computer. I am also really enjoying my A Level in ICT and this has confirmed my decision to pursue a career in the field of computing.
My passion in computer security peaked when I heard that Sony had been hacked into by an unknown source and it made me think “how can a massive company like Sony with a very secure system be hacked”. Also one of my favourite films is the 'Imitation Game' that features Alun Turing, an English computer scientist/mathematician who develops a ‘computer’ to break the German enigma code which was branded as ‘unbreakable’. This has fascinated me since I watched the film, how can one man and his ‘computer’ break a code that is deemed unbreakable? This makes me eager to do this

Myself and 23 others were chosen out of the whole of the schools in the district of Caerphilly. This involves working with young people in sport, from this I have gained skills in communication, working with others and leadership. I have also been chosen to become a Young Ambassador of Caerphilly County out of the 23 individuals on the course as I showed great skills and leadership attributes in the selection process. I have been selected to be Deputy Head Boy of my school this year. This role has allowed me to gain skills and responsibilities in organising events such as the sixth form prom and other events in the school. This has involved me interacting with teachers and pupils gauging their opinions and thoughts to enable me to organise these events. This has helped to develop my communication and working with others
It all started when i was in fourth grade. It all changed what inspired me came by whole big dream that i wanted to be successful at. I was at school just a normal day, and it was times to go to PE, and my coach got out a circular ball that i had never seen in my life. It was kinda colorful, it had some weird word written on it, but i couldn't see from where i was standing. My coach handed us each one of these balls, and coach called them volleyballs. My coach told us what to do and what not to do, so i was at this net, and just gave the ball a high five because that's what he said to do. Coach came over to me, and kinda directed me through and told me it was called a serve. That day i went home thinking about it, and i decided i want to do
When I was deciding what I wanted to choose for my major, I thought about things that I love doing. One thing in life that I have passion for is sports, whether it be playing sports or helping others develop their skills for their sport. My long term goal for a career, I want to be an Athletic Director for a college. In order to become an Athletic Director there are certain step that someone needs to do in college to try and have the best chance at getting their dream job. Athletic Director is not a career that a person just graduated from college and gets hired by a school, they must work their way up from an entry level job and slowly moves their way up.
During my coaching session I was able to interview Alec Del Viscio. We talked about areas of his wellness wheel he would like to change. Alec is really concern about his bad habit of spending money consistently in fast food restaurants. Alec Is not concerned in the unhealthy food because he exercises regularly and eats healthy food as well. Nonetheless, what makes Alec want to change the behavior is the tendency of spending a lot of money in fast food when we could be saving for something better. For example, Alec knows that if he save the money he spends in fast food, he and his friends can go out and even take a vacation. However, Alec also has clear that even if he tries to stop the habit, he still has to deal with time management. One of
The path that lead me to choose Sport Management as a major began at a young age where I demonstrated my admiration for sports. I have been participating in sports my entire life and still do to this day. Unfortunately, my time as an athlete will eventually come to an end and I will need to find an occupation that I have passion for. I asked myself the question, “Why not continue my passion in sports”? Being able to work with sports, but not directly in the spotlight, as an athlete is something I would love to be apart of.
Moving ahead to the middle of this course has me feeling confident in my ability to define computer terms in various business situations. In addition to this, the INFT124 class also helps me remember the names of basic computer parts and it also helps me competently explain how computers function. These activities also help me advance my computer knowledge, experience and competencies so I know how to complete challenging academic tasks.
So many Coaches have talent and dedication for what they do. I 'm proud to play for one that has a spectacular history of coaching. That coach is Dennis Lorio, who Graduated from LSU (Louisiana State University) with an economic degree and played baseball. “I love the intensity and the relationship in football” Coach Lorio explaining with a passionate expression. I can see it in his eyes that he is very dedicated and hardworking coach. As of now he is 62 years old and still willing to coach. “It’s not the same without coaching. The joy and the sorrow I feel during the season has been addicted to me. I’ve been in this game almost all my life and that is a very long time.”
From a very young age, I have loved being involved in sport and fitness. My earliest memories all involve me running around with a ball or a bat of some kind either in my hand or at my feet. My love for physical activity has remained and since then, I have becoming increasingly interested in coaching and the more theoretical side of sport. This has inspired me to pursue a career in physical education and coaching.
Within the collage I have had the opportunity to represent the school as Junior School Captain and Class leader. I have also been lucky enough to be involved in the Student Ambassador and Peer Support program, working closely with many other leaders within the school. The most relevant position I have held is Gwynton house leader this year. I have learnt so much from this position by assisting and learning from our current leaders Josh and Laura and also by taking charge in some situations and leading the group
Lastly, I have a desire to have a career as a software developer after I have completed my studies. This will ensure that I have learnt new possessions continuously and become aware of the updated technologies. After completing my degree, I would be provided the perfect platform to help me to excel in my career. Computer Science provides with self-assessments which allows the learner with options to work intellectually, therefore a course such as this, would be excellent.
I would like to become a high school cross country coach and I want this to be my dream entry-level job in sports. There are many reasons why I want this job. One reason is because I was on the cross country and track team in high school and I enjoyed be on the both teams. The second why I would like to do this is because I still run on my own and enjoy to this today. Also I would like to bring the joy I got out running and being on the two teams and bring it to other people. To me there are many other reasons why I would like to have this job but the reasons stated above are the most important to me and why I want this job.
At age six, I wanted to be a police officer. At age ten, I wanted to be a professional basketball player. At age sixteen, I wanted to be a doctor. Then at age eighteen, I was unsure about what I wanted to do in my life. I was unsure about why it was that I chose to do something in sciences. Maybe it was the pressure from my parents, maybe it might have been something that I felt would have made a lot of money, but whatever it was I probably will never know. One thing I do know is that at age twenty I found my passion in life. The passion of helping others when they seem down, the passion of teaching others valuable lessons, the passion of being a role model so that others could follow in your footsteps, that passion was coaching.
Overcoming the fact that one day you will not be able to play your sport is one of the hardest things all athletes must one day go through. It is a fact of the game that one day your eligibility runs out or if you are one of the lucky few who play professionally, your body’s years of health do not last forever. Coaching just to be around the sport and spread the joy that sport gave you for so many years. My coaching philosophy relies extremely heavily on this information. I have always been a person who is passionate about the things I love because I do not believe in not putting your whole heart into something. The most critical component to success in whatever sport you love lies in honoring the game that so many before you loved and excelled at. Excelling and honoring the game means having respect for everyone involved with the sport. Giving respect to your coaches is something I learned from the beginning. Being respectful and having a positive attitude learned at a young age is something completely taken for granted until you have adults who can neither adapt nor be flexible when something does not go their way. Sport is a form of education in that it teaches you similar life lessons that will be useful for far longer than the amount of time that you spend actually playing it.
My topic is similar to yours. I have always been intrigued to examine the relationship between coach and athlete. In my experience, I have found coaches who provide positive support and are constructive with their criticism are more enjoyable to play for and give the athlete a more positive experience. Coaches that come across as condescending seem to push kids away from the game. It is important that the student-athlete has a positive experience, especially student-athletes at a young age. I feel if a student-athlete has a negative experience at the interscholastic level he or she will be less likely to stick with the sport.
Upon successful completion of this project I will identify an existing problem of a team that I am a part of and I will act as team leader and develop a coaching plan to solve this problem. I will use my current place of employment as an example. As team leader, I will lead the resolution to the problem and build a more cohesive and productive team.
My experiences with my professional coaching sessions were very challenging to say the least. When I decided to begin graduate school, I never imagined I would be coaching my peers and they would be coaching me during my first quarter. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the experience and I learned a lot while participating. In my circle of friends, I am the one always handing out advice whether it is solicited or not. Because of this, I assumed these sessions would come natural to me. However, I learned by me forcing my opinion and advise on others I was trying to control them. Whitmore (2009), states
