Answer 1

EQ: What is the best way to prevent complications as an anesthesiologists?

1. Commitment to being a life long learner

Having a thorough knowledge and understanding of the field you are entering.

2. What possible evidence do you have to support this answer?

- In this first piece of research I found that the amount of schooling necessary to reach the career goal of becoming an anesthesiologist. Being that you need 4-year university/med-school/residency and a continued expansion mandated by the state after acquiring the initial education necessary, commitment to the expansion of knowledge is crucial.    

- Through this second piece of research I found that CRNA’s have the knowledge necessary to do the same jobs the anesthesia providers do, and being that you do not have to pay them the same amount they get paid less. Being informed on all the new technologies, advancements, as well as discoveries it puts you ahead f those looking to take your job.

- This third piece of research helped in bringing to light the difficulty of keeping a patient unconscious and the different techniques as well as signs an anesthesiologist must know about. Being able to identify these signs order to keep a patient safe.   

3. What source(s) did you find this evidence and/or answer?

- “Anesthesiologist” by Melissa Brewer

- “Cost Effectiveness Analysis of Anesthesia Providers” by Paul Hogan

- “The Balancing Act of Keeping Patients Asleep during Surgery”

Presentation Reflection

Blog 4: Interview 1 & Presentation 1

- 01. In what way did the first interview affect your presentation?  Please explain, be specific and use an example.

My 1st interview affected my presentation in the way that it allowed me to explore the many different resources for information. At 1 point in the interview we talked about speaking with the manufacturers of vehicles to see where everything comes from and why the make certain models the way they do. Id day that’s the biggest impact my 1^st interview had on my 5-minute presentation.   

- 02. What you say stood out about your presentation performance and why?

I think that the 1 thing that stood out in my presentation was the fact that I had very clear visuals I did not bombard the class with boats loads of information on a poster board I chose the more important notes and made them know, in a very simple manner.

- 03. What was the most challenging to do and why?

The most challenging part I think was really saying everything I needed/wanted to say I was so worried about the time limit and not passing it that I sped through everything and my nerves go to me. I didn’t say some of the points I wanted to cover as well as really get into the lesson and make sure everyone understood thoroughly. 

Blog #3: Senior Project Presentation 1

5 Minute Presentation Rough Draft

Lesson: Identifying different types of Vehicles

Objective: The students will learn to tell the difference between the types of vehicles that there are, including 18 wheelers, ATV’s, Convertibles, Compacts, Sports Cars, Race cars. 

Procedure:

1. I will start the lesson out with asking the students to name as many different types of vehicles as they can, and whether or not they know the difference between them. 

2. I will then go into my specific lesson, which is to give them the ability to not only be able to visually see the difference in the types of vehicles but know the mechanical differences.

3. I will then use my poster boards to show the main difference between the 7 main types of vehicles named in the above objective. The posters will have both photos and text that gives the basic description of that vehicle type.

4.  After explaining each vehicle and description I will then check whether or not the students understood, by asking them to name differences between certain vehicles, calling on students randomly.

5. I will then explain how this over all idea ties into the over all concept of my senior topic.

6. I will then conclude my presentation by asking if there are any further questions.

Check for Understanding: To check for understanding I will have pictures of vehicles that correspond with the types of vehicles that I explained and I will have students identify what type of vehicle it is, and the difference of that one vehicle and the others.

Resources/Materials:

In order to strengthen my lesson, I plan on using poster boards, as well as the separate pictures that will be used to check for understanding.

Evidence of L.I.A

Literal: With the research that I have collected I have learned that there is difference in types of vehicles, which causes the difference in the type of engine that is put into that vehicle. Different vehicles require different maintenance.

Interpretive: In order to connect to the students I intend to tie into the fact that sooner or later if not already we will all be driving. Being able to tell the difference in the type of vehicle you are buying as well as the type of maintenance vehicles require so you can either perform it yourself or know what needs to be done and not get swindled by mechanics. Having that mentality I think will allow the students to have a better understanding of this lesson.

Applied: This specific topic helps in the over all goal of my senior project because it is a fundamental that leads to the 1^st step in knowing how to properly maintenance your own vehicle. Being that my topic surrounds becoming successful automotive technician, this is a vital step.
