Personal Reflection

On 08/20/2017 at 1002 hours FTO Wheeler #4361 and I responded to St. Luke’s Hospital emergency room entrance, on 3555 Cesar Chavez St., regarding a women in a hospital gown trying to break the caller’s vehicle window with a brick. Officer Wheeler and I were in full police uniform driving a marked patrol unit when we responded.

During this course, I discovered an interest I had in the business field. Owning a company, advertising and marketing, selling procedures were things I enjoy retaining information about. Along with this

This reflection will discuss personal diffidence and how it has influenced my academic studies, including my practice within placement settings. Gibbs reflective cycle (Gibbs, 1998) has been utilised as it illustrates a clear structure for the process of reflection. To conclude this reflection will draw together the themes which have emerged and highlight a clear action for future learning that will be used in order to enhance my future practice.

I learned how to respond orally and in writing to evaluate, analyze, and critically assess the ideas and meaning of diverse texts by composing summary and strong response, and exploratory research paper. Summary and strong response paper taught me how to be firm and fair way to thinking. This is very useful at work. I can use this to improve my

How do you envision using the knowledge from this course in your current role or your role after graduation?

It has been years since I was a student and I now feel that I have a stronger foundation to build my education on from here. Having a better understanding of how to research, where to find appropriate texts, how to identify them and then how to use them to support my ideas gives me much more confidence as I move

Most importantly, I learned to courageously enter the academic conversation in an appropriate way. I gathered enough information from my research to form an opinion, or a central idea, on my writing. One of the most important things I learned from the class was that everything that can be written is persuasive. I also learned how to state my own beliefs, agree, disagree, and plant a naysayer in my text. Now, I have a fundamental idea of how to enter the academic conversation in relation to

For instance, if I am trying to convince the mayor to change something in my city, I can provide him with an essay with strong evidence and supporting details. I also have learned how to introduce myself through narratives with vivid details. The discussion board that I completed throughout this course was a great way for me to learn how to express myself and my opinions. This class has also helped me qualify for other goals that I have in the

Being able to straighten my research skills I feel is one of the most important aspects that I have learned in this class. I feel this will help me in many ways once I re-enter the workforce. How to research topics, and facts using multiple sources from various types of publications and outlets can be useful in school as well as many different job functions out in the workforce. Even though at times I struggled with in-text citations from experts, I feel I have gotten better using them. I also have learned to present facts to make them more interesting and personal to the reader.

When I arrived at the agency, the room was crowded and many people were waiting for their turned to be served at one of the several tables. The person that I interviewed for this assignment was Emily Hampshire, the coordinator of one of a program called 180. Emily has been with the agency for over a year and is currently the coordinator of the agency’s newest program. This program is a gang prevention and intervention program and was created for the local at-risk youth in an effort to prevent gang related crimes and help youth “change their life around”, as Emily mentioned. This program was created in collaboration with the local Police Department and the Mount Diablo Unified School District and in

In this course I learned how to be a brave when I assessed my fellow, to cite sources, and how to analyze an abstract. The important thing I learned it was how I search in the UOPeople library to get strong sources. I would change my grammar mistakes, especially comma mistakes and my style in writing because I recently discovered that it's a little confusing. I really liked that I learned to write a five paragraph essay with supporting citation because it's important for academic study, and I didn't know anything about that. I will apply this in my life when I will study in the university to write a clear thesis and 5 paragraph essay when it is needed. Also, I will do my best to keep away from any grammar mistakes. I will apply this for my

The writing I did this semester for Engl 110c has meant alot to me because I was able to pick a topic that has such a huge impact in my life. I was able to do the topic about Navy Wives, which has a huge impact on me. I recently became a navy wife a year ago and my life has changed drastically. I was able to share everything I wanted to about the life of a military wife through my writings, as well as share to my classmates about my topic. I really enjoyed creating my ePortfolio because I could come out of my shell and be me. I made a ePortfolio website that would be for military wives to read. I believe this website would be perfect for any military wife reading it. I was able to give tips and information on what it’s like to be a military wife, how to prepare for deployments and how to stay strong being a military wife.

There are many expectations at my workplace, some are rather time consuming and slow-paced however, thus far I can say the duties in which I have performed are very enjoyable and insightful. One of my major duties is centered around me shadowing the various staff in the building. In one instance, I shadowed my supervisor, Peter Rego, during one of his physical assessments of a patient who was suffering from persistent shoulder and back pain and from that session alone I gained profound insight in regards to treating pain. Furthermore, in the better interest on my learning and to better grasp the concepts of Physiotherapy, another one of my duties includes reading and studying rehabilitation books. Some of these books include the “How to Treat Your:” series by Dr.McKenzie. These books are rather insightful and I find them to be helpful in terms of furthering my interest and understanding of the work of Physiotherapists. Moreover, reviewing and analyzing the documents of patients at the clinic is another one of the duties I was assigned with at my placement. This is an integral part of a Physiotherapist's job; despite the fact that it may be tedious, it is pivotal that Physiotherapists create, organize , examine specific documents in order to effectively develop rehabilitation plans for their patients.
