Introduction
This paper will discuss the recent events that have happened in this past week. The results of the personality and values test. How the StoryCorp interview got me closer to my mother. What I learned about the photographic work field in my informational interview. The online programs I plan to use for my 21-day APP project. How I hope this class will help my growth as a person.
Summary of Key Findings from Interest, Skills, Values and Personality Surveys I generally try to be kind to others and I greatly enjoy making people laugh. I would like to incorporate humor into my Capstone Project and show the beauty of nature. I want my pictures to make people happy whether it is by laughing or admiring nature. I believe this project will go well with my personality.
StoryCorps Interview Reflection Karen, my mother, and I talked about family and religion. My mother is a family based woman, she has become more religious in her age. I asked her what her favorite memories of me were and she brought up events so far in the past I had forgotten them. It was nice to reminisce about events long past and talk about Heaven. We do not normally talk about Heaven so it was nice to hear her thoughts about it.
Informational Interview Results The Capstone Project I have chosen does not need a higher education to pursue after. Mr. Dunahee explained that the degree he went in for was not for photography. He had ended up in this work field after a friend paid him to do his wedding shots. Mr. Dunahee told me this after we had finished our interview, I was unsure whether to add it in or not.
Photography is a constantly adapting in order to keep up with all the new technology made available. Why pay for a photographer when your phone can handle the job? While I greatly admire the field I do not think it would be a suitable career choice for me. After the interview, Mr. Dunahee encouraged me to join his class to learn more about photography face to face. While the offer is tempting, I fear I do not have time to join his class due to my demanding work schedule.
21-Day APP Project Since my work schedule is very hectic I have chosen to take online class to learn more about photography. I did have a hard time narrowing
Caitlyn Hatch is a twenty year old student from Amherst, Massachusetts, who spends her weekends roaming abandoned buildings all over the western part of the state. What she does in these buildings is take photographs, however, she has not always been interested in the medium. Photography had never been her first choice for what she would possibly study at university, and she never imagined it as being something she would want to pursue professionally. Originally, she was intent on being a graphic designer. She had begun to play around with an online photoshop app, editing pictures taken by other people and was sure graphic design was for her, that is, until she got her first camera. She got her first camera at age fourteen for Christmas, one of the big black Nikon digital cameras. While she had never seriously considered photography before, she began to play around with her new camera. The novelty of it all coupled with the support of her father, who himself was an amateur nature photographer throughout his twenties, started the fire in her to take up this art and learn as much about it as she could.
Please respond to this: Recently, StoryCorps began animating a few of the audio stories. In 2005, StoryCorps interviewed the oral historian Studs Terkel. In the interview, Terkel talks about vox humana, which means the human voice. You can listen to the audio story at www.storycorps.org/listen/stories/studs-terkel. This story has also been animated. For a comparison, view the same audio story but with animation at www.storycorps.org/animation/the-human-voice. Which story did you like better? Did the animation add to or detract from the experience?
Once I am done with being a Manager, I will pursue Photography later in my life. The reason I have chosen to work as a Architecture/Engineering Manager, is because of it's lifelong pay. For instance, a high school diploma can only average out to produce an income of meanwhile a Bachelor's degree will have produce 2.1 million dollars, both of these are after the payment of taxes(Doc B). A million dollars is not going to cut my budget, that's why i have chosen to go to college. Plus i'll be able to become a photographer after 40 years of work as an Architectural/Engineering Manager. In order to do that i'll need to actually get the job. It states in document E, that people with a degree often face more chances of getting a job, and less chances of unemployment compared to a high school diploma(Doc E). College is important to me as well as it should be to
It has been almost a month since I've gotten laid off at Target. Without this job, it is hard for me to support my husband and two kids. I've been looking for a really good job that has good pay and that I like doing, but I have yet to see one. Today is another day of me looking for a job. While scrolling through a browser I spot a text that's bolded saying ‘ARMY’.
Hello, I'm Kaitlin. I'm a highschool photographer at Bettendorf Highschool. I started to get into photography freshman year by taking Digital Photography. Since then I found a interest in taking photographs. I'm interested in photographing many subjects: animals, nature, action shots, and portraits in general.
Joshua’s research with children and youth combines political anthropology, cultural history, and community engaged creative arts to lift up the voices of kids. He has been a TA for History and Global Arts courses. Most recently, Joshua illustrated his research approach to two Photography classes so students could learn specific uses of photography as a research method. These talks sparked the interest of several undergraduates who expressed excitement that photography could be used in research. They also expressed interest in working with Joshua on future research with children in the local
In the roughly eleven-minute interview with my client, Alex, we discussed her need for case management services. She established her concerns that she wanted to address with me, as well as her current status in education, living arrangements, social supports, along with her history in the same areas. We also began to discuss (informally) the goals that she intends to reach with help of my services and other services she may be referred to. During the process, I learned about Alex’s strength and resilience. I also learned a lot about myself as an interviewer.
This week I had the pleasure to conduct an interview with a leader of my choosing. So, I chose to interview David Yarbrough, MSHA, MA, EA to the Director of Oklahoma City VA Health Care System, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. “The Veterans Health Administration is America’s largest integrated health care system, providing care at 1,240 health care facilities including 170 medical centers and 1,061 outpatient sites of care of varying complexity (VHA outpatient clinics), serving 9 million enrolled Veterans each year,” (Administration 2008). During the interview I presented the concept of FRICTO to Mr. Yarbrough.
In addition, photography does it pivotal role by showing people the realities of life. One relevant example to this is photojournalism. Through photographic presentation, people are informed of the real situations of the stories about the real situations around the globe, may it be good or bad news. It is very easy to understand news or stories with photos attached to them. Therefore, photography is a powerful communication tool that embeds social happenings to the human awakening, with no other form of media can
A thematic analysis of an interview was used to help students develop an understanding of the role of an RC. This role is dynamic and challenging; it offers great opportunities to grow and work in an academic team based environment that fosters constant learning. Often RCs play a significant role in the process of bringing a project from conception to completion which requires a variety of qualifications and leadership qualities. An inductive approach to this process, beginning with data collection and analysis, allowed me to consider specific aspects of the topic and progress on to more general concepts. Eventually, I was able to discover connections between existing knowledge and the data I analyzed. The finalized themes included Qualifications; Role of Team Leader; Rewards and Challenges.
For many years photojournalism has been considered a transformative form of media, meaning that through the use of photographs photojournalism has the ability to transform our way of thinking by reconstructing the conscious of our society. Photojournalism achieves this effect by forcing society to reconsider its actions as it relates to humanity by using photographs to both illicit emotions and cause reactions that, if done properly can result in social change. Photojournalism is an important branch of visual media when
When conducting an interview I carefully read the contact with other. I knew I was interviewing someone from a different culture so I had to understand the ethnic community she was from which was Hispanic. I also was very focused on the professional self-disclosure because we were talking about a lot of personal things. I tried to humanize our relationship before I asked tough questions, this helps to create a sense of bonding. I was also very careful of my communication style, I always wanted to ask her questions in a positive manner and I was always actively listening to her responses.
I chose this topic because I wanted to focus on a matter that is relevant to the audience in order for them to be interested. Also, I wanted the audience to learn something new that they could apply to their lives currently.
I’ve had quite the learning experience over the last few weeks. I had a chance to obtain valuable information and support from my principal. I learned so much about the administration role and how difficult it can be. When I began my interview, I felt overwhelmed and excited at the same time. My principal is also my mentor; she has been very supportive of me pursuing my dreams to be in administrator. As I conducted my interview I learned so much about the principal’s role. I asked my principal a series of questions. The questions were based on the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium Standards (ISLLC). My first question was based on educational programs. The educational programs at any school need balance. While we live in a test results world, there needs to be a balance of focus. I look at the type of student I want my school to produce and I surround myself with a faculty and other staffs that not only share in the mission, but also will help every student succeed. In addition, as an administrator, I need to provide my faculty and staff with the tools and resources necessary to make everyone feel successful.
