Creating A Future That Works For Me

This past week in my Upper Level Psychology Class we had a guest educator come in and give us some really cool hands on examples of Occupational Therapy. I think it was such a great way to learn about the senses, and how we learn. It was so cool to get to experience things such as brushing, hands on. It was a great way to stimulate all the senses, and I really felt like I learned a lot. It helps to break up the class, as well as incorporate different learning techniques.

This isn't the first class at Granite State College that I have taken that incorporates hands on activities. I have taken several other course that have also used visual stimuli to enhance the learning, or to explain a certain procedure. It's something that is really nice that the college can offer to students. It also offers a chance for the community to get involved in 1. our education, but also the college. We really get to use some great local resources to help enhance the already diverse learning environment.

When I was growing up as a child we had a poster hanging in the school that said it takes a village to raise a child. After the experiences I have had a Granite State College, I believe that. I look forward to many more classes that will offer a new way to teach me something out my future career.
