I thought I was educated on diverse populations which by looking at my score, did not reveal. The score illustrated that I lacked knowledge in culture. ]]> 2021-06-21 15:48:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617903017 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617919240 On this assessment, I scored the highest in the blue score. This score did not surprise me as I felt as I most relate to this color's meaning. I resonate the most with putting value on close relationships, desiring quality time with loved ones, sharing emotions, needing harmony, and being adaptable. I did not feel as if I resonated with the other colors as much. ]]> 2021-06-21 15:58:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617919240 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617933316 On this assessment, I was not expecting to score the highest in the advocacy section. Before taking this assessment, I was expecting to score the highest in empathizing or encouraging. I feel as if this assessment was difficult because it was hard to decide on which choice of action to do. I felt as I would have done a combination of those choices of actions. I had a hard time pinpointing what I would have exactly done. ]]> 2021-06-21 16:07:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617933316 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617950378 This assessment produced the results I thought. Initially, I believed I was going to score the highest in the extroversion category. I have always considered myself to be an extroverted person so this did not surprise me. If anything, the assessment confirmed what I already knew. ]]> 2021-06-21 16:17:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1617950378 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618020705 After the communication survey, one of my biggest goals is to improve on my communication and listening skills. This goal is important to me because it will help me be better at my therapeutic skills which is crucial to have as an occupational therapist. To accomplish this goal, I will be more mindful of me talking over people and will refrain from it more. I will be utilizing the tools and skills we learn in this class to accomplish this goal.

I will better these skills by watching some of the TED Talk videos I posted in my resources link. These resources provide great examples of how to better listen and have more in-depth conversations. I will implement the skills to my day to day life. ]]> 2021-06-21 17:00:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618020705 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618140465 This assessment gave me the realization that I am not as educated on other cultures as I thought. To become more educated, I will be reading more into other cultures. I will be reading more books and articles and making sure to take the time out of my day to thoroughly understand other people's cultures. In addition, I want to be more aware of the cultural and racial hardships that people undergo. I will be watching the new documentaries and movies released in regards to this that have been added to streaming services such as Netflix or Hulu. I will attend as many diversity and inclusion trainings that are offered to me. Furthermore, I will have those difficult conversations. ]]> 2021-06-21 18:18:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618140465 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618153897 Specifically, after taking the self-assessment of modes, I want to be able to be more than just an advocate. I want to work on all of these modes beyond just the one I scored the highest in. I feel as if a good occupational therapist would be all of these modes instead of just one specific one. I want to be able to incorporate all of these modes into my daily life. To do this, I want to be able to employ these modes through getting more experience and doing activities out of my comfort zone. ]]> 2021-06-21 18:28:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618153897 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1618159354 https://www.ted.com/talks/julian_treasure_5_ways_to_listen_better?language=en

I would like to improve my automatic preferences for abled people compared to disabled people, automatic preference for thin people compared to fat people, and my automatic preference for European Americans compared to Asian Americans. To work on these implicit bias', I will do some introspection by exploring and identifying my specific implicit bias'. Also, I will practice mindfulness to reduce stress and to increase my mindfulness by either doing yoga or focused breathing. Furthermore, I will be doing perspective-taking where I place myself in the persons shoes who is being stereotyped or oppressed. This can involve either looking through media such as books or videos, and/or directly interacting with people from that group. ]]> 2021-07-07 16:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1640594330 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1651425689 Reading my answers was a difficult process for me as I was surprised by the results. It was surprising to see that I had strong automatic preferences for abled people over disabled people, thin people compared to fat people, and European American compared to Asian American. It made me slightly upset as I felt that I was inclusive and cared for everyone. It made me wonder if I do things implicitly that I do not know about. ]]> 2021-07-15 17:08:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1651425689 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1651516289 https://www.aafp.org/fpm/2019/0700/p29.html

Some of my strengths include being able to communicate, following through on promises, praising others, setting personal examples, actively listening to other individual's ideas and opinions, and being able to express my appreciation for others. Some of my weaknesses that need to be worked on include positivity, looking ahead more to the future and communicating more about the outcomes of the future, need to stop focusing on the past as much, and needing to be able to find the purpose and meaning of tasks and communicating that to others as well. ]]> 2021-09-26 18:48:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1769075218 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1769090946 Some of my short term goals is changing my outlook on how I view tasks and assignments. One of my areas that I can grow on is my positivity. I believe this could be influenced by changing how I view things by changing how I talk. Instead of saying "We have to do this," I will replace it with "We have the opportunity to do this." The simple change of words can exude more positivity and get myself further. 
Another short term goal includes making sure to not assign anyone in my group things I would not do. It is important to lead by example, and it is unfair to assign others tasks if I would not partake in them myself. It allows for others to trust you more as a leader and is something that I can easily incorporate into my daily life especially during group projects at school. ]]> 2021-09-26 19:01:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1769090946 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1769104437 One of my long term goals is to learn to know when it is important to exude a different leadership style. This is a situational scenario and will develop overtime with more experience. Each group I partake in will vary and will need a different leadership style and it is best to do what is best for the group and know when a switch needs to be done. 
Another long term goal I have is to volunteer at three new places. This lets my encourage the heart leadership style grow even further. By volunteering, I will be able to go outside my comfort zone and be able to build on my communication and interpersonal skills. 
In my everyday life as an OT, my long-term goal is to join the OT association for whatever state I am practicing in. This will help me be involved but also advocate for current issues. It is important to be aware of what is going on but also be able to express the issues that I see as an OT. ]]> 2021-09-26 19:13:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1769104437 mkain5 https://padlet.com/mkain5/6qgzbgb84r2eq911/wish/1769118956 https://www.cornerstone-ct.com/2021/05/11/10-ways-positive-communicator/
