Goal Statement
Personal, Academic and Professional Goals/Personal Qualities
I am seeking a Masters degree in school counseling with a general program specialization. My interest in pursuing a counseling degree is based on my desire to help young persons in school as they work to overcome lifes challenges on their way to adulthood. I fell that now is the right time to start because I have already completed my Bachelors studies and this is the next step in my higher education.
What influenced me to choose this field was my love of administration and supervising. I have experience in teaching and in training, and I want to develop the skills I have and implement them in a meaningful way. I know from my own experience that the primary and secondary school years represent a very impressionable time in a young persons life and being able to provide counseling to young people as well as to faculty can be helpful and have a big impact on all stakeholders.
My personal and professional goals after I receive my degree are to put it to use immediately. Long-term, my professional goal is that I want to obtain a counseling position in a school in order to assist people in achieving the schools vision. My personal goal is to dedicate myself to stakeholders in the education system where I work so that I can support the overall aims and objectives of the system and provide help to people on an individual basis in a positive and supportive and ultimately meaningful manner.
The personal qualities that I possess and rely on to form effective interpersonal relationships with others are my social and emotional intelligence, both of which allow me to identify the needs of...…reputation. Through Walden, I will be able to balance work with education and achieve the professional, personal and educational goals I have identified for myself.
Cross Cultural Scenario
As a teacher, I am continuously engaging with individuals and groups who are ethnically, sexually, racially, and spiritually different from I am. I approach everyone with the same empathy and consideration because I truly believe that we all share commonalities and that our differences are really what make life so interesting and wonderful. I have never excluded anyone because of a difference of opinion or background. My students, their parents, and colleagues have always appreciated the time I have taken in getting to know them. I continue to demonstrate a great deal of respect for the ideas, experiences, and inputs of all people, regardless of where they come from, what they look like, their politics or their…
"Prominent Americans viewed the prince's trip as an opportunity to showcase the country's brightest thinkers and shrewdest capitalists, and to flex its developing imperial muscle" (Abbott, 73). Having set the stage brilliant vis-a-vis the official nature of the prince's visit -- and mentioning the recent American acquisitions (Hawaii and Puerto Rico) to give an international political perspective -- Abbott further raised the stakes and value of the prince's visit
Yes, she had a motive, she was abused. But what are all the facts of the case? Did she lie in her testimony? Why was she repeatedly denied clemency? Did she really suffer from BWS? On a side note, her own trial attorney, Theodora Poloynis-Engen, admitted that she thinks she did not suffer from BWS (Hastings, 1993). One has to ask these questions because BWS is seen as an excuse
Interestingly, his daughter Pearl is also the physical manifestation -- or at least the most incarnate presence -- of his redemption. It is after she kisses him that he dies, in a strange reversal where the sin, i.e. Pearl, shows her acceptance of the sinner, and the understanding this imparts to Dimmesdale frees his soul. It is not quite the happy redemptive ending the reader might feel he deserves,
Men are reportedly involved in different offensive and aggressive acts, which are deplorable and condemnable. The mankind has contributed significantly towards the social, political and economic growth of any particular region, but if the progress is evaluated critically, we observe that the progress achieved is much less than what the potential of the individuals can offer. So where do we lose our abilities, the abilities and qualities of people
His murders appear to be the retribution for the sinners. The movie shows through the personage of Somerset, a detective, that the hope and the belief in virtue in the heart of people, especially experienced people, is almost gone. The sins are progressing so fast that even people who may seem innocent are guilty, too. A clear example can be observed through the death of Mill's wife in "Seven."
Q1 Give reasoned arguments for why you believe the concept of sin is diminished in the public square. Provide supporting evidence for your arguments. Given the increased focus on individualism in our culture, the idea that any personal choice is a sin makes many people profoundly uncomfortable. The concept of sin suggests that there are eternal truths which must be obeyed and to deviate from them is absolutely wrong. Contemporary secular
