I have learned more about myself this semester than I have in college previously. This experience has pushed me out of my comfort zone and challenged me to develop a new perspective of how to learn. This experience I have gained through being an Honors Practicum Leader has and will continue to shape my behavior in and out of the classroom

some of my writing skills that may have been lost since taking a writing class‚ over ten years ago.

At the beginning of this course‚ I thought I had a good understanding of what would be expected of me and I thought that I was an okay writer. I spent most of my college career studying for my bachelor’s

of the trip out on Monroe Reservoir‚ we had learned some self and assisted rescue techniques in case somebody falls out of the canoe. The first self-rescue attempt with no assistance proved to be very difficult for me. After trying to get back into my canoe for roughly 10 minutes‚ I decided to give up and go back to shore. This was very disheartening for me‚ as I consider myself fit and a good swimmer. Even though it was disappointing for me to not be able to climb back into the canoe by myself with

challenging to me was the time I had to write my thesis. I remember many late nights that turned out to be weeks‚ then months researching‚ writing‚ and editing back and forth many of my drafts‚ often wondering throughout the whole process if writing the thesis would be worth it in the end. I also remember worrying if I corrected every punctuation mark‚ looking again over every small detail wondering if it made sense‚ or if I had to get rid of it all together. During my research process‚ I was looking over

Reflection and Self Evaluation After review of the Teacher Work Sample and a bit of reflection I am pleased with the learning I have gained throughout this experience. Specifically‚ reviewing the lessons within the unit as well as the pre and post tests I have found that data really does drive instruction. For example‚ using the information from the pre-assessment caused me to adjust assignments to allow for students to learn new information. This meant I had to find additional sources for

Honestly. What is the point of this? I have so many things that I’d rather be doing in my spare time than going out in the public to do some stupid service learning project. Those were the exact words that flowed through my head while the assignment was being explained to the class. Even though I was not excited about this project in the least bit‚ I knew that it had to be done and it had to be done right. I was really hoping to work with kids and bring in a cool black light to show them some germs

If you leave there without wanting to find a shotgun and immediately shoot yourself in the face‚ you’re destined to be a marvelous caregiver one day. Not too long ago‚ I naively volunteered to take children I babysit to Chuck E Cheese while their mom went to the doctor. I forgot how bad that place was...it’s like Vegas for kids.
