My Strategy for College Success
Career Goals, Relevance of the Given Article and Three Courses Related to Career Goal
As per my own interests, I want to pursue career in the field of “Occupational Safety and Health”. The given article is certainly related to my field of expertise as it highlights different issues and concerns related to the work environment or occupational safety and health of different organisations. This article also throws some light upon the incident of World Trade Centre which occurred on September 11, 2001.
The given article is also beneficial to my career pursuit as it magnifies the importance growing of different health and safety standards as well as their implementation. The examples of Ground Zero and Twin Towers are quite notable and important in this regard. Most important aspect of this report is that it is not only related to the career I wish to pursue, but it also highlights some of the effective, though simple, tips for all those who work in the safety department particularly the workers at the construction sites . There are three important courses that are related to the field in which I wish to pursue my career are Risk Analysis and Hazard Control, Occupational Health and Safety Programming as well as Communication Strategies.
Time Management Techniques for Achieving the Career Goal
According to the science of psychology, the only difference between successful people and failures is the manner in which time is managed. People in the former group spend their time, 24 hours in a day, very wisely whereas people who fail tend to delay the execution of their plans through procrastination.
Self-Learning Style and Study Methods for Academic Success
Based on my experience as far as my learning style is concerned, I prefer learning though images, pictures and use of bodily movements. I prefer learning through self-study by using logic, systems and reasoning. Therefore, it can be said that my learning style is a mix of Visual, Solitary and Logical strategies.
Depending upon the mix of my own learning style, I have come to a conclusion to use an effective learning or study method convenient for me to follow or apply in the real-time. Therefore, I have decided to employ SQ3R study method that consists of components such as “Surveying” the whole study material, designing “Questions” for self-study, “Reading” the material for stimulating understanding, “Reciting” to recall the learned material easily and “Reviewing” for transferring the knowledge from short to longer term memory. This study technique is simple but not easy to apply. Despite this, it has helped me learn more complex academic materials with continuous practice and industrious efforts.
