This demonstrated our ability to both create a solution, and correctly interpret the task at hand. In the second lab, Introduction to General Chemistry, An Experimental Tour, we were asked to accurately record data,
Abigail Colvin Mr. Sanders Chemistry II 12 May 2016 The Chemy Called Al Introduction Chemistry is the study of matter and its properties. Even though the term chemistry has not always existed, chemistry has always been a part of life and is essential to life. By understanding the basics of chemistry, many discoveries and inventions have been made that improve life.
There are many core principles encompassed by the mission and values of Pacific University's Physician Assistant Studies program that I know will make Pacific University a great match for me. Ensuring high quality care for patients, valuing diversity, and lifelong learning of evidence based medicine are concepts that should be at the core of healthcare. Also important to me is the need to help underserved populations. Currently working as a medical assistant at a primary care physicians office in Hilo, Hawaii I work with many individuals from underserved communities of the island and I see the need for greater healthcare access in these areas, and I am now committed to continuing to help the underserved as I further my career.
Finally, chemistry creates critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills that are highly valued in today's workforce; due to this information, the ASU program will help create a better understanding of the
Just as importantly, they pique students’ curiosity and fuel their imagination. In other words, they make chemistry fun. It’s an approach that has served Hershey well during her 28 years of teaching science at State High.
When/Why did you become interested in studying Chemistry? He began by describing his uncertainty on what to study as he approached college, however it was actually by his last year of preparatoria (high school) that he began to develop a strong interest in Chemistry, he mentioned it was thanks to one of his professors that he became interested in the field of Chemistry, and from that point on that is what he began to study. He mentioned how his interest also grew when he got a chance to work in an actual lab setting as an undergraduate,
Ever since my childhood, I have been fascinated by the concept of science. From falling apples to x-rays, science has always whizzed round my mind like an electron around a nucleus. Classes at my high school – Westwood High School – have only facilitated this captivation. As a freshman, I took Pre-AP Biology, where
I have always had a passion for making a difference in others’ lives. From a young age my aspiration has to become a teacher, but I was not sure what level of education I would be best suited in. All through high school, I was involved in Best Buddies and Allied Sports which worked solely with students with disabilities. It brought me great joy to see them happy when people cared about them and even simply talked to them. It was not until about the end of my junior year in high school, I decided to explore different areas of education my senior year.
Personal Statement I am a zealous primary school teacher with ten years of teaching experience which reflects the dedication I have towards my profession. My keenness for learning and aspiration for career progression has motivated me to take up master level studies from a reputed world renowned university. It would polish my skills to use reflective, inspirational, and innovative strategies to impart knowledge to the smart generation of the digital era. Today’s children are living in a global village and to educate these children, teachers need to be trained with the skills necessary to support and prepare them for the future as responsible citizens. I am convinced that teachers with foreign qualification are more confident, have a deeper understanding of pedagogy, and are better equipped to facilitate student’s learning process.
I knew I liked science and I didn’t want to fail at it, so I bought books and studied. It was a challenging class, yet my dedication paid off to only further my persistence and drive to
With a Bachelors and Master’s degree in a field which I love, I will be able to pursue my dream of working and administrating a laboratory. While enrolled at the University, I fell in love with the studies of Microbiology but felt the need to maintain my original major of Biochemistry. My initial major choice of Biochemistry was greatly influenced by my teachers at Foxcroft Academy, George Rolleston and Robert Weber. Mr. Rolleston made Chemistry interesting for me as I eagerly took every course which he offered. By the end of my junior year, I had taken all Chemistry courses offered at Foxcroft Academy and had my mind set upon a college career involving Chemistry as well.
In ninth grade, I took physical science. I cannot remember much of the course, but I distinctly recall being introduced to the fundamentals of chemistry. Everything is made of atoms; atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Those three particles combine in a myriad of ways to create every physical thing in the entirety of the universe, like the three primary colors manage to create an entire spectrum of hue, saturation, and value. My interest for the subject was immediately piqued, increased by the fact that none of my classmates seemed to care.
As the main focus of all of these labs was testing a
From the moment I took my first test in Honors Chemistry to when I passed the course with an "A", and then went on to take Advanced Placement Chemistry and pass the exam, I knew a new growth had sparked in me, making me a more well-rounded student and person. My Honors Chemistry course began the year by talking about the basics.
Pre-AP Chemistry soon began my favorite class, rather than my least favorite as it had been during the beginning of the year, and I began to look forward to learning chemistry. At the end of the year, I was proud to receive an A for the second
