Blog 11: Holiday Project Update

1.  It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school.  What did you do over the break with your senior project?

    To be perfectly honest all I did was my weekly meetings with my mentor and catch up with my research notes. What I also did was some thinking about my EQ and how about going about in answering it.

2.  What was the most important thing you learned from what you did, and why?  What was the source of what you learned?

     Well, I learned that in order to keep yourself on track of your work is to be consistent and doing it during break. During break I thought of ways to answer my EQ and find the best response. I have an answer but the sources was talking to my mentor a little bit about it, but mostly referring to my research notes. I would like to further conduct even more research and talk to both my mentors before I pick an answer.

3.  If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to answers for your EQ, who would you talk to and why?

       I would pick my second mentor, my dad, Armando Rivera because he has helped me through all the steps of the way with my project. Also, he has worked in different therapy clinics and different experiences. Also he is a male in this field so he has a different point of view and experiences. Lastly, he always consults with different therapist on their opinions and what to do in different situations.

Novemeber Blog Assignment: Lesson 1 Experience

All of the senior class gave their first lesson presentations in the beginning of this month. I was stressed but I felt confident in my presentation because I had a great mentor that help me figure out how to plan my first lesson and a small activity to do with the class.

 

The second day I was the first to go. The reason I went first was to get it out of the way and to calm down from all the nervousness that was inside of me. As I was up there I felt really confident in what I was saying and I even forgot that I was nervous too. If anything I made time perfectly, said what I needed to say, gave my three examples and I just felt I did a good job. I met all the requirements. 

 

I talked about the biopsychosocial model which is in last months blog post. I went into detail if one thing is taken out then the cycle breaks. My three examples were Robin Williams depression, Anxiety Disorder in I Poly Students, and Schizophrenia in one of my relatives. I showed how that if one thing is taken out then it affects the whole cycle by death, stress, or etc..

Confirmed
Essential Question 

2.  Review the following EQs and

Tell us if each meets the rule of three.

Tell why they do or don't.

1.    What is the most important factor in healthy weight loss?


It doesn’t follow the rule of three because its doesn’t provide a framework for studies. Healthy weight loss is too broad of a subject. They need to have a main focus.

2.    What is most important to securing a conviction in a criminal investigation?
 

It follows the rule of three because provides framework for research. Has a main focus. Takes a stance and has a good format.

3.    What is most important in creating a hairstyle that best satisfies a customer?
 

It doesn’t follow the rule of three because the format. It doesn’t make much sense. Also, the stance it’s too broad focus on what kind of customer.

4.    How can an anesthesiologist best treat chronic pain?


It doesn’t follow the rule of three because its doesn’t provide a framework for studies. It would be crazy to research because different things cause chronic pain.

3.  Based on your review of the rule of 3 and your experience with assessing four EQs, please write another draft EQ for your senior project.  

         What does a client need to control their mental health?

October Blog Assignment: The Biopsychosocial Model

     My mentor and I this month had explored the biopsychosocial model. Which is also known as BPS. The model is a breakdown of three things biological, psychological and  social

     Biological aspect of it is how the body reacts to therapy and the medication that is being taken. Example if a patient is not sleeping well, diseases, or just the way your body handles the medication.

     Psychological part is how is the therapy is treating the client. They could be attending therapy and their mind isn't  making necessarry  connections. That person might need psychologist. This applies to how the therapy is allowing a client to remain in  control of any  mental diseases or disorders they have.

     The social aspect of BPS is the support a patient has outside the therapy room.  This includes: family, friends, or groups they have joined. This gives a client the encouragement to attend therapy sessions.

     All these traits are what make up the biopsychosocial model and take one of these things out and it can cause a patient to go back to return to previous behaviors or not control their mental health.

     This diagram displays it and how all the characteristics  relate and connect as a whole. The diagram is an excellent
 model that should be followed by patients.
