informative text to clarify things that have been discussed. I try my hardest on every call to make sure that all their needs are met and that they are understanding everything that I am saying so there is no confusion or need to call back in. There are a few things that I do on the calls to make sure that there is effective communication and that the customer and I remain on the same page throughout our interaction. First, I use non-verbal communication by applying a happy and pleasant tone,…
Education and social class was something that just clicked in my head when I heard of the two concepts a few years ago. Now in college when I revisit these themes of life and read the articles about them in the book I can look at it in another way. In my first M1 essay I learned a lot of things about myself, mostly how I need to improve. In the first essay I learned that I need to improve my into paragraph a lot. It didn’t not even have a good hook, something to grab the reader’s attention.…
Background Every year, many studies are conducted to look at college readiness for high school graduates. These studies focus on the education basics; writing, reading, and math. But many other factors can lead to a student being college ready. In recent years, some studies have started to look at the skills, outside the academic arena, that students need to master to be college ready. One topic that has started to take a role in readiness is the ability to handle finances. Most high…
continuous, I mean 4, 5, 6 days a week. But the past few years I can’t sustain any long term exercise routine. I don’t seem to want to exercise for whatever reason. The skill of using open-ended questions is a strong point in my interview with Jeff. I found it easy to incorporate the questions throughout the interview. In fact, when I used an open-ended question, Jeff would elaborate and talk in depth about his issue. Asking Jeff the question, “Can you tell me what you have done in the past…
I only have so many resources at my disposal in which to successfully conduct my study. My study is quantitative for the obvious reason that I have a hypothesis rather than a research question. But, I also chose quantitative because I feel that this type of study is based on the multiple individuals rather than a few individuals. I plan on finding out how and why people feel a certain way about sportscasters, whether that is negative or positive. I have chosen to conduct surveys…
Perhaps my own discomfort highlighted some of the cringe worthy moments during the 60 minute interview, including asking about the first time he had intercourse. The anxiety made me question if I truly wanted to know the answer to the sample intake questions. After all, I can still hear my grandmother’s voice a few minutes before my wedding telling me, “lo que no fue en tu ano no es tu dano/ what was not in your time is not your harm,” meaning I must not to worry or ponder about my husband’s…
Critical question: I wonder what happens when I try improving lesson pacing by first incorporating effective transitions and procedures in the classroom, second checking for student understanding, third using effective lesson planning, and fourth assuring that students are engaged? Contextual factors: I conducted this action research project in a Title I school, where I was an intern. I am at the school two days a week all day. The school I am at currently has 82.16% free and reduced lunch. The…
what to expect. I did not know if she was going to be some mean teacher that would make me uncomfortable to speak or if she was going to be an understanding, kind teacher. I was grateful when Alyssa told me from the start to not be afraid to ask questions and if she needed to go longer than the hour given, she would. I instantly felt at ease, and I was not as nervous. Alyssa had asked for my planner, which was set on top of the tower of textbooks, and asked if I had any tests coming up. I handed…
My first question asked the student, “How long have you attended Concord University? (Do not have to be in succession)”. This question allows us to see if the time that the students are here is correlated to the student’s opinions of the institution. Question two states, “Do you reside on or off campus?” This allows us to see if students are happier when living on or off campus. With question four I used a skip logic so that if you answered on campus you would move to the question, “Which…
series of disturbing answers to the questions. He adds that five of the questions in this poem are the answers to the opening question which is pretty complex. As we read the poem with a closer look, Harlem consists of eleven lines separated into four stanzas. The first and last stanzas contain one line while the other two contain seven and two lines respectively. With every line, the speaker blends it up by making few lines short, and others longer. A few lines contain only monosyllabic…
