Session 1: A Critical Reflection As I start my new educational path I found myself reflecting back on my most recent work experience. I spent six years working directly in the shadow of a very demanding Office Manager. She received all the credit while I did all the work. Many nights I came home frustrated and in tears from her lack of respect and her threating ways. However‚ my pride in myself and my strong work ethics kept me going in everyday and doing the best job I could do. This past May‚ due

Determination of the Equilibrium Constant for Ferric Thiocyanate In this laboratory exercise‚ the equilibrium constant(Kc) for the reaction between the Ferric Ion (Fe3+) and the Thiocyanate Ion (SCN-) was determined. After measuring the absorbance of the Ferric Thiocyanate‚ and carrying out some calculations; it was determined that Kc=130.81M Introduction: Chemical equilibrium is established when a reaction exists in a state where the forward reaction rate is equal to its reverse reaction

Reflection (physics) From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia The reflection of Mount Hood in Mirror Lake. Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated. Common examples include the reflection of light‚ sound and water waves. The law of reflection says that for specular reflection the angle at which the wave is incident on the surface equals the angle at which it is reflected

contribution of reflective practice for clinical nursing. Reflection has been defined as a way for individuals to “capture their experience‚ think about it‚ mull it over and evaluate” (Boud et al 1985: 19) Argyris and Schon (1974) suggest that practitioners often practice at less than effective levels because they follow routine. Johns (1995) implies that action can be taken through reflection to increase effectiveness in practice as reflection provides opportunities for self development as professionals

What is reflection? Reflection is the examination of personal thoughts and actions. For practitioners this means focusing on how they interact with their colleagues and with the environment to obtain a clearer picture of their own behaviour. It is therefore a process by which practitioners can better understand themselves in order to be able to build on existing strengths and take appropriate future action. And the word ‘action’ is vital. Reflection is not ‘navel-gazing’. Its aim is to develop

This essay will reflect upon an incident in practice when I administered a drug to a child. I will use Gibbs reflective model (Gibbs 1988)(see appendix 1). This model of reflection will be applied to the essay to facilitate critical thought and relating theory to practice where the model allows. Discussion on the incident will include the knowledge underpinning practice and the evidence base for the administration of the drug. A conclusion to the essay will then be given which will discuss my knowledge

Evaluation of the Gas Law Constant Abstract: The result of the change in volume was approximately 22 CC or 0.00084 mol. This translates into the average for the R constant being 83.8L*atm/K*mol. The four determinations ensured that the results were accurate because more than one trial helps somewhat prevent error. Approximately 0.20g of the Mg ribbon was used for these determinations. Introduction: 1. Theory If the temperature of a gas sample was held constant‚ its volume varied inversely

Not everyone is a tech enthusiast. Thus‚ the ultimate decision between a Mac and PC can be overshadowed by the constant rivalry between Apple and Microsoft. The truth is that Macs and PCs are very different‚ but similar at the same time. However‚ one of these systems will fit a person’s needs and wants better than the other one. When any person or company in the world is in the process of buying new computers or laptops for personal‚ school‚ or office use‚ they might not know which system to buy

smile‚ every pounding heart‚ and the sweet taste of every kiss. Love is an emotional feeling in the soul and the basis of everyday life. However on earth and in this life‚ love is forever changing and death is the only constant. The role and significance of love in "Death Constant beyond Love"‚ by Gabriel Garcia Marquez‚ is that of powerlessness. It emphasizes the human condition of being alone and helpless in the face of love‚ life and death. Love is powerless in the face of death. All of its complicities
