The book Show Your Work was a cute little compacted book that appealed to college students with neat phrases and drawing throughout the contents. One quote that stood out to me was, "You want hearts, not eyeballs" on page 129. The author stressed how you shouldn't waste your time reading articles on how to get more followers or follow someone on social media just because you think it'll jump start your career. I agree because people should be true to themselves and hope for the best. You need to create own success, not suck up to others. Pages 16 and 17 discussed how businesses need to expand their workforce by allowing fresh, innovative minds into fields that are considered. While getting my minor in art, I noticed how some very talented

In today’s economic environment everything changes rapidly not only the economic indicator but also people’s life-style or pattern of consumption. In such a rapidly shifting milieu, creative ideas, knowledge, and innovation are the only stable sources of capital (D. Oliver, “Achieving results through diversity: a strategy for success,” Ivey Business Journal Online, vol. 69, no. 4, 2005.) So developing a more diverse workforce can make the business full of creativity and vigour and the most important thing is that creativity and innovation are the indispensable factors in social
A. Attention getter: Why did the art student cross the road? Because she decided to pursue a more useful degree. I sincerely wish the cultural artifact I was here to present was a list of potential job prospects for graduating art students, but unfortunately, no such thing exists.
“Fewer are taking on the sublime, unwinnable challenges of the arts… fewer are putting themselves on the line…” Shames refers to the fact that even when it comes to education, we lean toward the “safer choices” such as business, law and science. Though many do enjoy these fields, some choose them because they are the “chartered paths” that have many times been proven to make a lot of money and to have a great chance of finding jobs. He points out those bold enough to take on the “unwinnable challenges of the arts” because although these jobs are equally as important, these paths today are certainly less chartered and may not guarantee the cushion of a comfortable, stable life. Shames calls on us to put ourselves out there, break the boundaries and go for what we truly have a love for. By doing so, not only will we be happy, we will have achieved a different view of success, one
We are raising today's children in sterile, risk-averse and highly structured environments. In so doing, we are failing to cultivate artists, pioneers and entrepreneurs, and instead

Coming into this class, I wasn't sure what to expect. Of course,I expected to be writing a lot but was unsure of the type of writing and the style. I was looking forward to writing challenging pieces that stretching me creatively as a writer. I wanted to explore how to express myself in my writing because it had been a long time since I'd written a creative essay. One of my main hopes for this class was challenging myself to become a better editor of my own papers. I often find it a tedious and laborious process to find and edit the grammatical errors in my papers. However, this is an important skill that I need to develop for my future as a successful writer.
Over the past few years, I have inconsistently shared the work occurring in my classroom. Years ago, daily posts on my now-abandoned classroom blog, reflections on my professional blog, and posts on my students’ blogs kept invested adults current about the learning taking place in my classroom. For the past few years, I have practically gone into hiding after moving my classroom from the blogs to Edmodo and then Haiku. I have allowed ambiguous student privacy expectations from my district and partner agencies to discourage me from posting learning to an authentic global audience. Before reading “Show Your Work” by Austin Kleon, I was only sharing my work through Instagram and practically stopped encouraging my students to share their work.

This essay is a reflective essay on my learning development from a young age through to my current position as a University Student. I will be relating my learning development back to two theories of human development, Vygotstsky’s socio-cultural theory and Marcia’s version of Erikson’s theory of identity development. I will identify and discuss the challenge I have faced with my identity and how this has impacted on my development.
I make lists, plan my schedules, organize my weeks, put sticky notes everywhere and set all kinds of alarms, and so I remember all the things I have to do during the week, particularly at school in a new place, where I do not know anybody or where anything is. Yes, I am that person, that have a little bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. I am a very organized person, but there was one time I decided to postpone that project because I considered it was not that important and that I had enough time to finish it.
This unit does not introduce much new material. Instead, we expect you to integrate technical and theoretical knowledge acquired from study across your degree. We refer to two frameworks that may support you in carrying out this integration:
Vital signs are a fundamental component of nursing care and indicate the body’s ability to maintain blood flow, regulate temperature and regulate oxygenate the body tissue. Taking vital signs are essential in revealing any sudden changes in the body, which could potentially indicate clinical deterioration of the patient.
“You’ll never make a living as an artist,” a phrase I have heard nonstop from family, friends, and just about everyone growing up. A phrase I constantly told myself while trying to pick my major when I made the big transition in going to college. Coming from a family of doctors, veterinarians, and other various medical careers, it was almost unheard of to pursue a career in the arts. I explored business, advertising, teaching, and many other careers, but in the end, I decided to place happiness over wealthiness and I chose to go through with a career path in Visual Communication Design. Looking more into an art major and questioning if I had made the right decision, I learned that so many of the things people say about artists are just rumours or myths. In today’s society, artists are not starving, they are thriving and we need them to keep the world running. Unlike myself, many people decide to not get a job in the arts because they listen to the false claims of the people that tell them that they will become a starving artist and have no money. In reality, creative jobs are extremely needed in today 's society, and there are actually very many perks in pursuing an art career. Some of the many perks include, being known to make an average amount of money, have little to no decrease in job outlook, being statistically happier than other careers, while making others and the world around you a much more positive place.
