...Strengths and Challenges Reflection Letter Dear Professor Lambert: I really do not have any questions at this time for this course because I am not really sure exactly what this course is for or what it is going to teach us. However I do look forward to the people I will meet in this class, also the obstacles we will overcome together. I would have to say some of my strengths would have to be typing, also my past knowledge of the ethical hacking or unethical that I have already experienced. Although it may not be the ideal thing to mention, it is however the reason I became infatuated with computers. I will return to ITT for my bachelor’s degree in cyber security. Some challenges I know I will face with going to college is the amount of writing we will perform. I do not think of myself as a great writer, I will further my knowledge on the ideal ways of writing papers. In the past when it comes to academic’s my grades no problem attendance however now that’s another story. I have never been a big fan of getting up every day to go to school, but this is for my future so I hope that will continue to be enough motivation for me. I know I will have to get into the habit of reading the textbook or e-book it defiantly does help with understanding the assignments and also gives examples which is very useful to me. I will do my best in this course and of course in college all in all, this is without a doubt the field I would like to be in due to the need of IT professionals and also...

...Unit: 2 Assignment 1: Strengths & Challenges Reflection Letter Hello, It’s a pleasure to be in class GS1145 on Monday evenings. Especially being out of school since 2005. I can see that this program has lots to offer for student. The course I’m taking is Electrical Engineering, and I’m very thrilled to further my education at ITT-Tech. In this letter I’ll discuss my past challenges from being in school, to my strengths as a student. Also I’ll be going over plans and ideas I’ll be using to do my very best, to meet expectations. My biggest difficulties and weakness that I’ve always had in my past years of school, had been being able to speak in groups and presentations. It’s been a big challenge that I had trouble over coming back in High School. Sometimes I tend to over think thoughts, or get to nervous with speaking out clearly with thoughts and ideas. I plan to over come this difficulty by not over thinking certain ideas, situations, and being able to get ideas out. I also plan on working more in groups and participating more. One of things I enjoy about these courses, are the group presentations that are required by most classes. This will definitely help getting past that shyness, that I always had in the past when it came to presentations. This is something I’m looking forward in future projects and assignments. Some of my strengths are working in groups, paying attention to detail, and being creative. I like being able to...

...In this essay I will write a Reflection Journal consisting of what I have learned from the assigned content of the “Internship Prep Seminar” course I have taken this semester. I will summarize what I have learned from each part of this course, and how I feel I will benefit from each topic. The first area I will discuss is the Personal Strengths Assessment, and how to “sell” these to potential employers in the competitive job market. I feel that taking an assessment of myself was a helpful tool in that it made me reflect upon myself, and the evaluate what I feel are my strengths are in regards to my employability. Once my strengths were identified, it made it easier for me to focus on these characteristics of myself and think of how I can sell or make them known to a potential employer, which I feel important in the job market of today to help me possibly stand out from other job seekers. The next area discussed was Resume development. I thought this was another important topic for the class, as it helped me to learn how to develop and construct a professional style resume. The topic helped me to decide what experiences and education to include in my resume, and in what order to list these. I feel a professional style resume is a key component in job seeking, as it shows a level of professionalism and clearly states what I can offer to an employer. To go hand in hand with the resume development, we also developed cover letters. The cover letter I feel gives a more personal...

...Chelsea Rentsch X420 Lab Week #8 February 25, 2013 Hiring Committee Reflection Paper I was assigned to be on the TRON Group A hiring committee in search of a candidate for the TRON Leadership Development Program. The job candidates are applying to be an entry-level Human Resources representative with TRON to build core human resource and business expertise skills. Assignments within this job posting include labor relations benefits, talent acquisition among others. The hiring decision process included some challenges and difficulties. At times, not every member was present at the same time in order to collaborate live about the strengths and weaknesses of each applying candidate. Hiring the right candidate was our choice and responsibility to insure that we are avoiding a future employee that could present threats or problems for TRON. This responsibility put a lot of pressure on my hiring committee. Also, it was difficult when candidates would not submit the assignments in a timely manner, such as the cover letter, resume, or online interview stream. This led to difficulty in collaborating and discussing the candidates’ job eligibility. When it came time to hire an individual, we went through a series of questions to assess each candidate. First we simply asked the hiring committee “is the applicant qualified to perform the job?”. We needed to think twice before hiring an applicant into a job that is outside his or her set of skills and knowledge. Next we asked, “is...

...Zeigler 1 Andrew Zeigler Professor Papa English 125 1 May 2012 Soldiers Stories: Dispatches from Iraq The objective for a solider is to, fight for their country, without surrendering to any obstacles that come their way. In review of the historical aspects, soldiers in America are viewed as citizens who proudly defend there nation, and resources. However in the 21st century, soldiers are fighting in an attempt to extract Iraq from Kuwait and to avert Sudden Hussein from controlling a concentration of the worlds oil supply. Soldiers are faced with deleterious decisions when it comes to war. Even though they hanker to stay at home with their families, their main emphasis is to provide for their family. Over the accumulated years soldiers are in war, they overcome death, hurt, distrust, and terrorist attacks. The role of a soldier is to obey his commanders and fight for the benefit of his nation. Soldiers have to be highly skilled and prepared when it comes to war. This relates to what Timothy Gaestel, journal writer in “Soldiers Stories: Dispatches from Iraq” said in his entry. He asserts, “ I had my M4 rifle at the ready and my trigger finger on the trigger and was just waiting for someone to give me a reason to have me put it from safe to semi.” (329). This quote exemplifies that Gaestel was well prepared for anything coming his way. Even though Gaetel obtained two shrapnel’s in his back from a bomb he was determined to ensure...

It very important to know, what do you enjoy doing? , what are you good at? , Where do my skills and knowledge lie? , what characteristics of a job are important to me?

Also try to find out your passion, interest, dream and aspiration. 2. Impressive CV and Cover letter A well-constructed resume is one of the main tools needed in any job search. Many times the interviewer is impressed by the attractive and strong resume and cover letter. Explore activities such as volunteering or looking into professional associations.

...YORK UNIVERSITY S E N AT E C O M M I T T E E O N T E A C H I N G A N D L E A R N I N G ’ S G U I D E T O TEACHING ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION INTRODUCTION NEED FOR THE GUIDE The Teaching Assessment and Evaluation Guide provides instructors with starting-points for reflecting on their teaching, and with advice on how to gather feedback on their teaching practices and effectiveness as part of a systematic program of teaching development. As well, the Guide provides guidance on how teaching might be fairly and effectively evaluated, which characteristics of teaching might be considered, and which evaluation techniques are best suited for different purposes. The Teaching Assessment and Evaluation Guide is a companion to the Teaching Documentation Guide (1993), also prepared by the Senate Committee on Teaching and Learning (SCOTL). The Documentation Guide (available at the Centre for the Support of Teaching and on the SCOTL website) aims to provide instructors with advice and concrete suggestions on how to document the variety and complexity of their teaching contributions. Teaching is a complex and personal activity that is best assessed and evaluated using multiple techniques and broadly-based criteria. Assessment for formative purposes is designed to stimulate growth, change and improvement in teaching through reflective practice. Evaluation, in contrast, is used for summative purposes to give an overview of a particular instructor’s teaching in a ...

Using flowers to send messages was a popular Victorian practice.

Write a short essay or letter (one to two pages should do) with the message you wish to send and construct a verbal bouquet that expresses your sentiments. Use your imagination: you are not restricted to sending a “love letter”. It is up to you what sentiments you wish to express. Please make sure your answer is legible (either print it or type it). Keep it clean (i.e. no obscenities) and leave the name of the person out (use a pseudonym). If you wish to consult additional references,...

...Danielle Turnbull English 265 Section 1 Schapiro November 24, 2014 Self acceptance “The Ultrasound” Arranged Marriage and “The Girl Deficit’ grows in India” In a mirror lies a reflection. A lie it is in that the reflection is partially determined by the person who stands in front of the mirror. In a patriarchal world, if that person is a woman, the reflection is often affected by the society of male dominance and unequal rights. How can self-image be perceived in a positive way for women? Self-Acceptance, much like self-esteem, at our deepest levels is either complete or not at all. Self-acceptance is something that is only achieved by those who can accept who they really are, “an acceptance of one’s self despite deficiencies” (Wikipedia.com). In some cultures, much like those of India in Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni stories in Arranged Marriage self-acceptance seems to be an impossible achievement. Many woman in India, in addition to many woman across culture, enter a life from birth till “chosen” by a husband that is pre-defined. Given that, how does a woman find self-acceptance? A true sense of self and love? In “The Ultrasound” Divakaruni and in a supporting article by the Boston Globe called “The Girl Deficit”, Woman are shown as people who are manipulated and forced to make choices against their will. “The Ultrasound” tells us a story of two woman and their pregnancy and how when the gender is revealed, for one of the woman their life made a turn for...

...it from abstracting and indexing databases.” The label Abstract should appear in uppercase and lowercase letters, centered at the top of the page (section 2.04). The abstract should be between 150 and 250 words. The abstract should be written after the paper is completed, as it outlines the content of the paper. A Case Study of Precious A CaseThe instructions and sample paragraphs on these pages are formatted as a paper would be. The first paragraph of the paper should begin here; the title serves as the first heading, so there is no need to write the word “Introduction” as a heading. This paragraph should introduce the topic. It should suggest what questions need to be asked and what problems need to be addressed. For most student papers, the introduction should also provide a clear thesis statement, one that makes a clear claim that the rest of the paper will go on to demonstrate. If you are writing more of a summary paper, then the thesis should be the idea or theme that holds the essay together. If you are presenting your own research, then this section should relate to what was researched, what result was expected, and what was discovered.
