...23, 2016 Curriculum Philosophy Introduction Personal philosophies of education are at the core of what makes up a good educator. Strong personal beliefs are the core reasoning for why people choose their professions. In education, personal philosophies are essential, meaningful, and so important because those beliefs will affect thousands of other stakeholder throughout ones career. For schools, understandings and commitment to philosophies is the driving force behind curriculum and instruction (GCU, 2010). It is important for school leaders to examine their own personal philosophies of education to determine which of the five educational philosophies it falls into; perennialist, idealist, realist, experimentalist, and existentialist. The following material accounts for a reflection on the results of my own personal philosophy according to Wiles & Bondi (2007) and their personal preference philosophy assessment. Following the results is d as well as my own relations and beliefs of educations in correlation to the five educational philosophies.

...have been establishing not only my own thoughts of how Jesus came to be and understanding the bible as well as how other classmates view their knowledge and opinions which may differ from my own. I have always felt strongly about my feelings of God but have never come to discuss them. Christian Worldview really puts your knowledge and beliefs to a level of assessment and the ability to see into your morals and beliefs. First, we have miracles, the meaning of miracles were spoken throughout Mark 5, and John 11, verses that discover the power that Jesus is the Son of God who retains power over satan and his demons. He is a miracle worker when it comes to others, may they be strong or weak he guides them and leads them to do the right thing. The demand of limitations is also strong to believe that whatever happens may happen, let God lead the way through prayer. For the purpose of perspective, personal ambition and prophecy, Luke 22-24 describes the key understanding and meaning of Jesus, through death and resurrection. He is the savor and the power, to live forever and ever. Through him we can, with guidance and strength in our beliefs we can live on forever as well. Matthew 24 states another prophecy, destruction of Jerusalem or of the nation and the coming of God and his judgment on the destruction. However, I believe that the Bible, God and prayer all have true meaning in my day to day life. I have conquered many challenges throughout my life and have always overcome...

...Reflection Essay My Religion and Malloy’s Eight Elements I was born and raised in the Lutheran Church with a strong belief system. As of recent years, I have opted to not attend church services, but still feel very strong about the beliefs that I was raised with. There are a few beliefs that I was raised with that I don’t buy into, such as the belief that god created earth and all things on it in 6 days. There is far too much scientific evidence to suggest that evolution has and is constantly taking place. Despite this, I do thing that our belief system plays a very important part in my life. For me, community does not play as big of a role in my belief system. I tend to believe that one does not necessarily need to attend church to worship god. I do that every day in my daily life. I am so thankful for my friends, family, life and everything in it. This has been my dad’s feeling for a very long time and I tend to follow him. We do have several central myths that we believe in. All of these myths are told in the bible and are stories that we learn from the time we are young children. I remember going to bible camp when I was in elementary and junior high school. We would go for a week and always on the last night of camp, the counselors put on what was called the Passion Play. The play was the story of the last few days of Jesus’ life, his crucifixion, and how he rose from the dead. I have such vivid memories of this and it was always my favorite part of...

...Having lived in the state of Utah for my entire life and growing up playing many sports, especially football. I have been exposed to the Pacific Islander people. Whether I was socializing with them throughout my childhood schooling or playing with and/or against Pacific Islanders throughout my athletic career, the exposure that occurred between myself and Pacific Islander’s shaped my personal perspective on who Pacific Islanders are. In my perspective Pacific Islanders are: physically large, extremely family oriented, and very protective of their cultural ideals. Naturally I always saw Pacific Islanders as very intimidating because of their massive physical stature. This more than likely because the majority of my engagements with Pacific Island people was on a football field. The majority of Pacific Islanders that played football with or against me were very big and dominated the players that were more near the size of average high school kids. The Pacific Islander players were in most cases always the biggest players on the field. Pacific Islanders were taller, heavier, and stronger than the majority of the players they played with or against. It also seemed as if the best teams in the state always had the most Pacific Islander players, looking back on this claim it’s hard to believe that there was an authentic correlation between the amount of Pacific Islander players and the success of a team. I believe that my experiences with being extremely involved in sports and the...

...motivations and ends of such events (“Ethics”, n.d.). Personal ethics relate to how people are raised, religious, cultural, or political beliefs, the experiences people have had and the books people have read. This paper is going to explain about professional moral compass which helps to guide an individual's decisions based on virtues or morals. Most profession has a professional code of ethics. Nurses follow the code of ethics which is ensuring that their practice adheres to the ethical guidelines established by their peers. The American Nurses Association (ANA) developed Code of Ethics for nurses as a guide to execute nursing responsibilities in a way coherent with nursing care quality and profession’s ethical obligations (American Nurses Association, 2010). Personal, cultural and spiritual values influence nursing practice a lot. Value means relative worth, merit, or importance. Individual’s values have a very strong effect on the way people live and the choices they make. These values are considered as the cornerstone of their decisions. The development of personal values and beliefs start in childhood when people interact with families, educational and religious institutions, and caregivers. My personal values are honesty, compassionate, respectful, punctual, true love, and humanity towards other people. This was rooted in me from my family upbringing. I am from a Christian family and Indian culture. Nursing is a sacred profession in Indian culture. I believe in God...

...each patient and their caregiver in a holistic manner. I believe it is my duty to put my personal beliefs aside and educate patients and caregivers based upon evidence based practice and promote a shared decision-making approach to the patient’s care plan. However, this can be a difficult task to implement when the beliefs of the clinician and the patient or caregiver oppose. I have recently been confronted with this issue in my practice. A kind mother of one of my patients, who has a history of many visits over the past 6 years with a diagnosis of “wheezing” or “chronic cough,” brings her child in for another episode of significant coughing and mild...

...person’s ideologies and characteristics. It is my personal opinion that a philosophy is strongly influenced by a person’s upbringing, their life experiences and is an evolving moral belief in an area of their life. There are differing opinions and statements that can define a philosophy. My philosophy in nursing is built on a firm belief that I should always maintain integrity, honesty and a heart to help health the sick and those in need, while laying aside my own personal biases do only what is right of a prudent nurse. Being a strong and prudent nurse is one that esteems the patient’s needs above their own needs. Nursing is the foundation to the practice of medicine in our nation. I will share one definition of a philosophy according to Yoder-Wise: A nursing philosophy statement outlines the vision, values, and beliefs about the practice of nursing and the provision of patient care within the organization. The philosophy statement is used to guide the practice of nursing in the various nursing units on a daily basis. (Yoder-Wise, 2011, 282) As I stated in my original philosophy, being a strong and prudent nurse who places a patient’s needs as top priority is the part of what encompasses my philosophy of nursing. Concepts and Beliefs When I stated in my philosophy that one must place the patient’s needs above their own, I am speaking in terms of a nurse working their shift and not inside of their personal life. I belief it is as important that the nurse take care of...

...given deep thought to what my personal belief system is nor have I written out or explored my thought processes on religion. I have always thought what my belief system is what it is. I have never studied the Bible and I do not have such strong convictions that my ideas cannot change. While science continues to evolve and try to explain everything in the universe one thing remains constant on Earth, almost all humans, no matter where he or she live, have some sort of religious belief or religious tradition. Their beliefs may be structured and a commonly held conviction of a traditional religion or it may be something such as atheism. My personal beliefs are as follows; I believe in an all empowering entity. I believe in God. My belief in the trinity is as follows, God is the Heavenly Father, His son Jesus Christ came to Earth and died to atone for the sins of man, the Holy Spirit is within each person as long as the individual believe in God and Jesus Christ. I cannot explain how I came to these beliefs. My family has never been overly religious and we never attended church so my beliefs were not ingrained from birth. Me religious belief system is almost like an entity that you cannot grasp, I have it in my heart and mind but it is probably cannot be explained in writing. I was raised in a predominately Mormon area in South Eastern Idaho. Most of my close friends were Mormon and I was open to their religion since I had no religion to call my own. At the age of 18 I...

...Investigating Religion as a Theme “I began now seriously to reflect upon what I had done, and how justly I was overtaken by the judgment of Heaven for my wickedly leaving my father’s house, and abandoning my duty,”(6).’ Throughout the world literature classic Robinson Crusoe, author Daniel Defoe effectively uses religion as a main theme. The main character, Crusoe, is dependent on his religion throughout the novel. Crusoe believes God has helped him when he has made bad decisions. Some may argue that Crusoe used luck to get through these intense situations. The truth is that Crusoe’s belief in religion is bluntly evident throughout the entire novel. Crusoe wouldn’t have made it through his first voyage without his belief in God. Throughout the first pages of the book it seems as though praying is all that he does. He prayed to God like a slave prays for freedom. Crusoe relied very heavily on his belief to carry him through his fear of shipwreck. “In this agony of mind I made vows and resolutions, that if it would please God here to spare my life this one voyage, if I ever got my foot upon dry land again I would go directly home to my father,”(7).’ This quote shows how Crusoe depends on God. If Crusoe did not have a strong belief in God, then why would he make these promises? Some may argue that Crusoe is just a lucky man. This argument is wrong, because Crusoe states throughout the novel how much he relies on God. Could luck alone save Crusoe from terrible storms, lions...

...with Maitreya Great Tao as my beliefs. I came from Taiwan, a small country in Eastern Asia with come a culture deeply connected with China. The people in my country are mostly Han Chinese who came from mainland China before 1949 or have ancestors that were. They are divided into three group based on the Chinese dialect they speak: Taiwanese, Hakka, or Mandarin. The traditional values that we have are based on Confucian ethics which are now challenging to industrialization. However, some traditional values remain strong, including piety toward parents, ancestor worship, a strong emphasis on education and work, and the importance of saving face. And these are also my values, beliefs and practices. I was born and raised in Taiwan which is Home Island. I consider myself Taiwanese no matter where I live because I am descendant from a long line of Taiwanese who came from a small village in Kaohsiung city. I know that China prefers to view Taiwan as an inherent part of China going back to “ancient time” and China wants to claim sovereignty over Taiwan. I do not consider myself to have a shared Chinese identity because I am one hundred percent Taiwanese. The communication styles of Taiwanese are in front of words, gestures and facial expression. Mandarin, the official national language of Taiwan is my main language. It has allowed me to share my way of life with others and allows me to connect with my culture, roots to my ancestors and to my cultural histories. People...

...practice holds nurses to a much higher standard than the average nine to five office job. Nurses must be proficient in a background of anatomy, physiology, and the way drugs and diseases work. Nurses must also combine that knowledge with sharp critical thinking skills and an unconditional compassion for humankind. While every nurse is unique in their own way, I hope the values that I have in my daily living can affect the way I conduct myself while on duty as a practicing nurse. The same theme seems evident in most nursing philosophies; caring, health and wellbeing, environment, and clinical excellence through education. As I contemplate what my philosophy of nursing is I have discovered that I also incorporate these aspects of nursing into my own personal values of what I believe it is to be a nurse. My personal belief system has always been that a nurse should possess strong ethical and moral values, a passion for caring, and a commitment to lifelong education. Ethical and Moral values One of the greatest challenges in nursing is how to integrate appropriately one’s own values and beliefs into the professional practice. The nurse’s primary commitment is to the patient and the patient’s family. Patient respect, advocacy, honesty, and privacy are four qualities that any human deserves and are especially important in the healthcare setting. The American Nurses Association states, the nurse promotes for, and strives to protect the health, safety, and rights of the patient (Association...

...Curriculum Philosophy Sean DeMaree Grand Canyon University EDA: 561 October 21st, 2015 Curriculum Philosophy A well-designed curriculum is a strong key to the success of a school. When designing a school curriculum it is imperative that the school leader has a clear understanding of their personal beliefs and ideals about education, in order to create a curriculum they can truly support and lead. In order to define the philosophy of the school leader a survey was answered and analyzed to begin the process of planning and composing a strong curriculum philosophy. The following is a reflection on my personal response to the philosophy survey. After completing the philosophy survey, found in the appendix, it was clear that while there was a tendency to lean towards the experimental and existential side of philosophy, the overall appearance was flat. Based on this criterion it is implied that there is no preference of philosophy, however knowing that my background is in music education, I think that a better analysis would be an eclectic philosophy. In the music classroom eclectic teaching is a normal means for reaching each and every students, and when designing a curriculum, an eclectic approach would be important. Students need the perennial side of education to help them learn to reason and seek truth. They will learn to be social and productive members of society through the idealist, while the realist will help them gain knowledge about the world around them. Lastly...

...Spiritual Needs Assessment According to Potter and Perry (2009), one’s awareness of inner self and having a sense of connection to a higher being is the meaning of spirituality. Spirituality is a force that provides a person with intrinsic energy that promotes and enhances their well-being. It also helps a person achieve the balance needed to cultivate a positive life and to cope with everyday life stressors (Potter & Perry, 2009). Florence Nightingale believed that spirituality within a healing hospital environment, and caring for an individual’s spiritual needs is just as important as caring for their physical needs (Potter & Perry, 2009). Spiritual assessment is defined as the process from which health care providers identify a patient’s spiritual needs related to their mental health care (Spiritual Competency Resource Center, n.d.). In 2005, as evidence-based research demonstrated a correlation between supporting a patient’s spirituality with their health and their ability to cope with an illness, The Joint Commission (TJC) announced the requirement for health care organizations to include “a spiritual assessment as part of the overall assessment of a patient to determine how the patient’s spiritual outlook can affect his or her care, treatment, and services.” (p. 1). Patients deserve the best holistic care from health care providers, and it is through a spiritual assessment upon admission that providers will be guided to providing such care.

...Laura Thrasher CWV-101 April 12, 2013 Bob Greene Worldview Essay Throughout this class my eyes have been opened over and over again to the way I think about different worldviews. A person’s worldview is determined though their beliefs and their morals. Though my worldview is Christian someone else’s can be completely different. Just because someone’s worldview is different than mine does not mean that their worldview is wrong. Worldview is different for each individual but they can still have the same set of ethics and morals. From a young age my grandmother brought me up with a Christian worldview and its beliefs. I know that God is the creator of all things in the universe. I know this because it is in the Bible. The nature of the universe came into existence all because of God. God created the nature of the universe to show his love for all things that he created. After God created the universe he made man out of his own image and he was pleased. When Adam and Eve disobeyed God knew that he had to punish them. I do not think that God wanted to punish them, but he had to teach them wrong and right. Now days we have the Bible and God’s words to tell us how we should act and what things are right and wrong. In everyday life we are faced with situations that we must choose what to do. God knows that as humans we are not perfect and will from time to time sin. God loves us so much though that he sent his son to Earth to die on the cross for our sins. By Jesus dying...
