cle10 – core competencies

By

 

I think career compass and who am I project helped me so much. This helped me to find out who am I and what I want to do. I think I did not try harder the first and second week, but from third week, I grow some more. I will try more and do some work in the class. I really liked this course.

My career compass

By

 

Hello, this is all about the international student budget for UBC.

instrument player, artist, or something like that, but nothing seemed to fit with my personality. Finally, I began looking at the possibilities of becoming an artist, and when I found out that communication could be combined with mental health, I instantly fell in love with the idea of pursuing a career in this field.

There are many skills and attributes needed to succeed as a psychology counselor: it’s important to have knowledge of mental health and science, be a critical thinker, have good communication skills, and know-how to manage time and troubleshoot when it’s needed. I think I would be very well suited to this career because I have a huge passion for mental health and science, and tend to wander a lot about the world we live in and what I can do to make it better. My current interests lead me to believe that I can do this through science and communicating.

There are several steps I need to follow to become a psychology counselor. To organize my thoughts, I’ve divided them into short and long-term goals:

My short-term goals include graduating from high school with the highest possible marks to increase my odds of getting into university. For the long term, I want to complete my undergraduate and graduate degrees (I will expand more on this later) then start working for a psychology counselor firm or join a startup like in Korea Hospital, for example, to gain experience. It all depends on the outcomes, but I eventually want to create my own company or business – but I have time to think about that.

My Post Secondary Plan

After I graduate from high school, I’ll apply to several universities (to keep my options open), but I hope to get into UBC. They say it’s recommended that aspiring mental health gain experience in other fields of psychology, so I’ve decided to apply to the UBC Introduction to Biological and Cognitive Psychology / Introduction to Developmental, Social, Personality, and Clinical Psychology. The program consists of 3 eight-month academic sessions (2 years). In my second year, I will have the option to stay in mental health but with a concentration in specific data. In addition to the standard electrical engineering course, the program offers additional training in anatomy, physiology, micro/nanosystem design, medical imaging, and more. Once I’ve completed my bachelor’s degree, I will start my master’s in psychology. In total, assuming it takes me 4 years to complete my bachelor’s and 2 years to complete my master’s, the length of the entire program will be about 6-7 years.

To gain entrance to the Psychology program, I will need:

The total cost including tuition fees, supplies, international student’s student fees, and transit for any of the undergraduate applied for mental programs at UBC is $1,368.84for one year. The full 4 years of my undergraduate studies will cost $5,475.36 and my master’s degree will amount to a total of $1,358.84, for a grand total of approximately $106,477.8

One of the obstacles I might face is financial restraint: although my parents have already put some money aside for my education, it’s not enough to cover the cost of the full seven years. To overcome this, I will try to earn a scholarship and if I need to, apply for student loans. Depending on my situation, I might also have to apply for a job. Another hurdle I will probably need to overcome is stress. I don’t know what university life is like, but I’m sure it will involve stress. To help with that, I will work hard to stay on top of everything but also take time for myself once in a while.

This is what I expect my timeline to look like between 2020 and 2028.

Casey’s goal

Casey’s goal

In next semester, I will get at least B in one of the cources. I plan to finish every H.W in due date, and I should ask at least one thing to teacher. I also think that I should spend much time when I doing my H.W. If I don’t know something, I would research in internet, or ask peers or teacher.

Power Information Fluency

Instructions;

I’m going to talk about Justin Trudeau and Dams. First of all, I will talk about what the is dam like. The dam is an information fluency with water. Dams were built for immersions and dimensions across mountain valleys and narrow lake. This is the way we use it in our lives, and dimensions are what we have to do in the event of a natural disaster. The dam also has water and embankment functions, and the lake formed by the dam is called a reservoir. Dams are useful in Canada, especially in BC, because we are placed in nearby oceans, and when it’s raining, it rains hard, and too much. We have harder weather and climates here, so we need dams in B.C. There are two examples of negative and positive hands. In Egypt, in Nile River, Egyptians are almost lost their heritages in the dam, but with citizens’ help, they saved their heritages. But in the other hand, they lost their nature. When it rained, soil erosion became severe, the resources supplied to the soil became wastewater, and all the untreated heritage sank into the water.

 

P1.

  1. What is the dam?
  2. What are the benefits of the dam?
  3. What are the issues of the dam?
  4. What are the other energy productions for an alternate?

P2.

  • What questions did you need to ask in order to research your topic?

I used these questions for my topic;

  1. What is the dam?
  2. What are the benefits of the dam?
  3. What are the issues of the dam?
  4. What are the other energy productions for an alternate?

 

  • What new or familiar digital tools did you try to use as you worked through this project?

I used a Korean blog to gather information. There were climates about Korea, so I changed into the Canadian climate.

  • What was the process you used to investigate the topic?

  • How did you verify and cite the information you found?

I searched from the official dam cites in Korea, and I found the facts and checked the blogs that were perfect to use in my assignments.

  • How did the process of completing this challenge go? What could you have done better?

I was challenged in understanding questions. The questions are quite complex for me, so I think I need to improve my scientific English more, and basic English.
