My academic goals are to complete my bachelor’s degree at UIW then continue my education my earning a Master’s Degree in Nutrition. I have several universities that offer master’s programs online, which so far have worked out well for me and my schedule. With all the research, we have done during this session I still want to follow my professional goals that I started out with when I began classes at UIW which is in the nutrition/dietitian field. However, the research throughout the session has given me insight to all other opportunities in the health care industry that I had very limited knowledge about. Professionally, after completing both degree programs I would like to find a role where I can educate people on the importance of proper

In this school everyone was constantly learning from others by observing, asking questions or just
The second floor is mainly classrooms for lecture and set up similar to a college institution. The third floor has the pays lab, field experience events, and provides student group meeting for community planning activities. The guide for the transition site was a special education teacher named Jake, he was open to answering our questions and was open to explaining why the school was built in such a way. When the building was selected to be a transition site, LRE was taken into consideration. Therefore, students can learn and feel at home, and not another high school. At first, the style was confusing due to the fact that everyone is outside of their classrooms and walking in all directions, and it was meant to be like that. This transition site is meant to teach social skills and important life skills.
