Exhibit 7. Discussion of Skill Competency – Pages 3-4
Section 4. Learning (con’t)
Throughout my four years at the Univer sity of Guelph, I have learned one very important thing: learning does not end once you graduate high school or university, it is a continuous facet of life that should never be ignored but embraced.
I am sure that I learn something new every day. It may not be life altering; it may be something so minute that I missed the fact that I learned it. For example, each day in my anatomy class I learn how the human body works. Monday,
I didn’t know that each vein doesn’ t have corresponding arteries, but on
Wednesday, I did. Just last week, I learne d how easy it is to make tomato sauce.
These little events led me to believe that learning never ends and I can use this new knowledge to better my life.
The knowledge I gained in high school helped me to succeed in University, and the knowledge I gain in University will help me to succeed in the job field. I know that over the past four years, I ha ve developed my skills and learned quite a lot. For instance, when I study for a test, it is not just to memorize the material like I did in high school, but also to unde rstand the material presented to me. This method not only helps me get great mark s on tests, but I now can utilize this knowledge in my every day life. My fath er was a big coffee drinker. He drank 6 cups of coffee a day. After my first year of university, I lear ned how to research a topic and present in a simple, effectiv e manner. I researched the disadvantages and side effects of drinking coffee and ga ve this information to him, in the hopes that he would cut back, which he did.
I have also learned that there ar e many different ways to learn new information. For instance, some people are better learners wh en they are being lectured to: others learn better independen tly, I learn the best when it is hands-
