During this week in ISM I have completed my second mentor visit
assessment, reflected on my original work speech, and continued to research for
my final product. For my second mentor visit assessment, I reflected on what I learned
from my first mentor visit which lasted two and a half hours. For this
assessment I reflected primarily over the second half of the mentor visit while
the first assessment reflected over the first half of the mentor visit. During
the second half of the mentor visit I learned that not only does a cardiologist
have to help his patients, but he also has to deal with the numerous amounts of
emails that he receives every day. I was also able to see a few more patients
and understand their own cardiovascular problems before leaving for school. This
week I also reflected on my speech and watched several videos of speeches from
people in my class and other classes. I felt that I learned much from watching
the other speeches and was able to appropriately reflect on my own faults from
my own speech. For my next speech I would need to speak at an appropriate pace
and practice much more since I felt that for my original work speech I hadn’t
practiced as much as I should have. This week has been a wonderful week and I hope to accomplish
more in the future.
