Art Technicians vs. Business Management and Administration

Now, I bet your thinking about what this is going to be about. Today I'm going to be comparing the two clusters Art Technicians and Business Management and Administration.The description of an Art technician is to plan or conduct art therapy sessions or programs to improve clients' physical, cognitive, or emotional well-being. Now if you're wondering what that means, it is to pretty much use your imagination to improve somebody's physical and mental being. What sets them off from the cluster Business Management and Administration is all in the description. Compose letters or electronic correspondance in reply to request for merchandise, damage claims, credit and other information. Duties may include gathering data. Now what that means in a nut shell is to use letters and email to respond to people to manage merchandise in a business. Therefore, the job descriptions tell you the exact reason why they are different.

MY TRUE COLORS

How does your #2 card influence your #1 card that fits you best? My true color that I found out yesterday was to be orange. Now, orginally I thought that I was a gold card but it soon turned out that I am orange and gold is my second. Now, I bet you're thinking it's weird that I can't even guess what card I am, even though I know myself better than anybody. But this reason is because my gold inside of me influences my orange. This being is because Gold is a person who follows rules and respects the athority, has a strong sense about what is right, needs to be useful and to belong, value home, family, and tradition, and am a natural preserver, a good citizen, and helpful. Now, the orange card is literally the complete opposite. I act on the moment's notice, consider life as a game, here and now, I need fun, variety, stimulation, and exexcitement, I value skill, recoursefullness, and freedom, and I am a natural trouble-shooter, a performer, and a competitor. But the reason gold is my second is because I've done a lot of things I shouldn't have. Now I don't mean illegal, but I've pushed my limits with my curiosity many times.This makes me bring out my gold because I know how it feels to be on the other side, and it makes me do gold things. Therefore, my gold side shows because of the mistakes I make as an orange, so it's all part of learning and fixing the things I've done.

4 COLORS

today we studied the discovery of peoples true colors. The true colors are considered as Blue, Green, Ornage, and Gold. Blue means-that your known to soothe your nerves. Green- an expression of someone using their logic. Orange- is a person often used to promote action, motivation, excitement. Gold- is a person with many morals associated with them. We were given the task of naming four teachers who each reflect to us as each of the different cards. Now I believed the Blue card teacher as Mrs.E. She is always a caring person and wants you to always feel at home before she teaches you something. Next is a green card teacher. I would have to choose this as Mr. Happ. He is always using his logic to solve a problem everyday, and that is math. He is defiantly the hardest teacher I've ever had, but he forces you to use logic everyday. The Orange card teacher is defiantly not a no brainer. All the teachers try to teach you things, but I'd say Mr. Dunham. He probably teaches me the least amount of stuff, but everything that I learn I obsorb. This being he makes it exciting, so I remember it very well. It actually ends up that I probably learn more in that class than any other. And this brings me to the teacher that I award with the gold card is Mrs. Wilson. She is always using her smarts and being on task. She can get anyhting graded and done on the time she tells you. However, she never backs down from the tasks she has on mind. This moves me on to my classmates who earn each card. My blue card goes out to Sydney. She is always making sure everyone is included and feeling appreciated. My Green card is given to Michael. All he ever does is use his logic, and it comes in handy. My orange card goes out to Hannah. She doesn't care about much, but she defiantly can make your day fun! My last card goes out to my friend Sammy. I don't think he's ever not done something that he said he's going to do! He never breaks a moral and is always on task.

Business Managment blog

I would like to read about the job descriptions, skills needed, and education requirements for each of the careers they chose to research. It should be some interesting stuff! This week we were assigned to do two jobs in the career cluster Business Managment and Administration. I chose the job Correspondance Clerk and Medical and Health Services Managers. Now I bet your thinking my second job choice sounds more like Human services, but here is why it's not. The job description for this job is to plan, direct, or coordinate medical and health services in hospitals, clinics, managed care organizations, public health agencies, or similar organizations. Now what this means in a nutshell is instead of dealing with the patients, it manages and plans the things that happen in the hospital. the skills mainly needed are Costumer and Personal service, administration and management,and personal and human recources. There are many more things needed, but these are a big part of it. The only education required for that job would be a Bachelor's degree ranging up to a Master's degree. My next job that I chose was a Correspondance Clerk. Their job description is to Compose letters or electronic correspondence in reply to requests for merchandise, damage claims, credit and other information, delinquent accounts, incorrect billings, or unsatisfactory services. Duties may include gathering data to formulate reply and preparing correspondence. What this pretty much means is to respond to people according to what they are demanding for from the business, and try to give them what they need. The skills needed for this are Costumer and Personal Service, Mathematics, Computers and Electronics, and Social Perceptivness. Of course there are many more but these are defiantly the most important. The education required can range anywhere from a high school diploma all the way to a little bit of college.

LEARNING ABILITIES

Today I got on career cruising to find the best way for me that will help me learn.I was given the tactial category as to which that is how I learn the best. The best way for me to learn are listed below: Rewriting my notes or typing them on the computer Think through a problem while doing something physical like exercise . Make diagrams, notes, and flash cards as a way of being physical with the information. Actively work the information you are learning by making models or doing demonstrations and practice assignments. Use role playing to practice skills or act out what you are learning. Take short breaks for physical activity when studying. Although I am mainly a tactical worker, I also learn better in some ways by visual, which can also come in handy. So, all on all you can say I learn from actually doing something with my hands. But, if I need to visual learning can do me some good also. What is your style? What does your style mean to you? How does it impact your learning? How might you use this learning style knowledge to make things easier in high school and beyond? First off, what is style? In my opinion style is who you are, and the things you like. My style would have to be being busy, and being helpful while doing it. My style means eveything to me. It's kinda who I am, or who I seek to be. It affects the things that I try to focus the most on in school. Picking my classes in highschool is kinda based on what I want to become one day. This learning style can help me learn more about a job before I decide to gain the knowledge before I pursue my dreams. I don't want to get education to become something that I thought was something, that really isnt what I thought it was.

Human Services

Over the past few days in my career exploration class we have been going over the cluster Human Services. Although I've been absent from this class for the past days for sports, the day I was here it was obvious what this cluster was about. The two jobs that I observed were Human Recouces Specialist and Human Factors Engineers and Egronomics. Human Recouces Specialist is pretty much the recruiter for workers. They make a decent salry for a bachelor's degree of $55,800 and have a 20% to 28% growth. If your lookin for a job in this cluster I would be sure to look into this job. My other job, Human Factors Engineers and Egronomics, consits of a Master's or Bahcelor's degree which adds up to the whopping pay of $78,860. Although, the job only has a 3% to 9% job growth. Although I wanna be more in the range of the Health and Human Services cluster, Human Services still has a big roll in my job. It's important because in my job I'm looking to help people. So, either way Human Services will still be a big role in my job.

"Students in Career Exploration classes did research in Human Services and STEM this week. I wonder what kind of connections they can make between the two careers they chose within the Cluster they were researching!" I have done two careers in the cluster STEM and I've made some connections between the two jobs. I relized that the two careers both have to do with technologies, that involve them to share many of the same knowledges and abilities that enable them to do their jobs. Although, they both differ in big ways. The Cleaners of Vehicles and Equipment require a lot lower education. This is due to the fact that it is a lot simpler than Serospace Engineering and Operations Technician. The responsibility is a lot a lot higher in Aersospace jobs.
