Person

When looking at an individual and deciphering if he/she can be classified as a gifted person, there are several criteria that one needs to take into consideration. For identification purposes, educators and other professionals no longer solely look at one’s fixed intelligence but other aspects that when stimulated and nurtured can grow a person’s talents whether cognitive, intuitive/creative, or motor/sensory expressions. “Growth of intelligence depends on the interaction between our biological inheritance and our environmental opportunities to use that inheritance” (Clark, 1997, p. 26). Because of this, careful considerations need to be made to ensure that individuals are afforded the opportunities to reach his/her full potential. In…

any people care about what others think about them, while others maybe their self around anyone and not even care about what others think. In the quote, written by Geisel, “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” This quote tells us to be who we are no matter what. If we take a closer look at the quote then we can see what it is also telling us. If we are around people and they do not like who you really are then their…

Cournoyer’s person-in-environment perspective focuses on the importance of understanding the client’s situation better in addition to the client’s behaviour and the environmental setting of the client. An important concept of the person-in-environment perspective is to look for life lessons. When listening to clients and demonstrating social work skills of empathy and empowerment of their self-determination, we must ask the question of what they have learned from their struggles.

According to the internet, when you type into the search bar looking for definitions about a 'person of magnitude' you get results answering that a 'person of magnitude' is someone powerful as well as wealthy, or an important politician. Nonetheless, these can be qualities, however on the other hand, I believe that the definition of a person of magnitude can be solely based off anyone's opinion.

Having an understanding of the limitations can strengthen how the social worker applies the key features and assumptions of the case. The key features of the person-centred approach are empathy, unconditional positive regard and self-actualisation. Empathy allows the therapist to view the world from the client’s perspective. The client’s world will include their values, experiences, feelings and perception (Miller, 2012, p.46). For the social worker, this means being able to examine everything…

clarifies her view about what makes us persons. By us she means all humans who live in this earth, and they are called in our contemporary life "persons."
