Week 5: Task 4

Yes my personality type I discovered today in the survey agrees with the type of work I am doing in my internship/service learning. I dont think I will have any challenges when it comes to where i want to work. I didnt go to my intern this week because I had to go to the doctor. I look forward to doing the same thing I did last week.

Week 4: Task 5

What Iv learned about my perfession is that they do alot of desk work and it can be very boring at times but if it helps people then Im all for if. I really havent learned anything different from last week about the people that I work with. Evertime that I come to work there they are so nice and friendly. I havent have any bad experiences other than it gets very boring in there sometimes.

Week 3: Task 2 part b.

5 ways to end procrastination:

1. Motivate yourself to work on a task with thoughts such as “There is no time like the present,” or “Nobody’s perfect.
2. Prioritize the tasks you have to do.
3. Commit yourself to completing a task once started.
4. Reward yourself whenever you complete a task.
5. Work on tasks at the times you work best.

Week 3: Task 2 part a.

5 ways you can improve on taking notes:

1. Review your notes from the previous class session before you come to class. This will help you remember what was covered and get you ready to understand new information your teacher provides.
2. Complete all assigned readings before you come to class. Your teacher will expect that you have done this and will use and build upon this information.
3. Bring all notetaking materials with you to class. Have several pens and pencils as well as your notebook.
4. Rewrite your notes to make them more complete by changing abbreviated words into whole words, symbols into words, and shortened sentences into longer sentences.
5. Check with other students to be sure you did not leave out important information.

Week 3: Task 3

Good study skills can help you at your placement because you might need to learn more about the placement that you are in. What I've learned about my placement is that they work very hard there and if I dont step up to the plate like them then I might fall behind. I've also learned that the people in my placement are very kind and caring people. I have postive experiences everytime I go to my placement but I havent had a negative experience yet. This week I look forward to going over the patients house.

Week 3: Task 1

The things I need to work on is getting started and Finishing what I started. I need to work on getting started on things because I never just go and do things. I always wait until the last minute or until someone tells me more than once and I think that is a very bad habbit to get use to. But I need to work on finshing things because I never seem to finish anything that I start. Like if I am reading I book I will get tired of reading it and never pick it up again thats why i have only finshed one chapter book in my intier life and really dont think thats a good thing to do!

Week 2: Task 4

My first impression of the work service was that I was going to be in a nursing home helping old people out of and into the bed. What I do at my Service learning is basiclly desk work right now.I've learned that nursing isn't all about being in a hospital it's mostly desk work. I have also learned that when it comes to nursing you have to have a lot of petience. One positive experiencce that i have had is that the people treat me like I am one of them. I really dont think I have had not even one negative experience.I look forward to answering the phones for them this week.

Week 2: Task 3

To get to that point im going to graduate high school, sign up for the military so that they can pay for my college in return for my services, finish college, go to the military , and then become a Broadcast Juornalist. In ten years I am goingto be married with children and a beautiful house on the sea side. I will look like I do now young and beautiful. I will be on ESPN talking about games and players.

Week 1: Task 2

Politeness!!!!!! Thats a big thing with me because if your not polite to anyone that you work with then they wont help you when you need help or when you have to partner up with someone they wont listen to you work with you as well. Because I know if I worked with someone that was not polite then I would have to tell the boss that I want to work with someone else.
