Presentation #1: Identifying and Illustrating my Skills

 There is a valuable lesson to be learned from those who have conducted successful job searches: it is extremely important to define who you are as you embark on your job search AND to be able to illustrate who you are through short stories from your professional and personal life that demonstrate the unique strengths you bring to a role. 

Objective:  Develop a 3-4 minute recorded presentation in which you  (1) define who you are now, using Sidney Fines Three Kinds of Skills, (2) illustrate your skills with a story from your life as directed below and (3) set a goal as to how you will demonstrate/apply your skills in your current internship. You will use PowerPoint or a similar tool to create your presentation.

Recording Directions:  record your completed presentation and upload it into the dropbox for Presentation #1 in D2L. 

Your recording options are:

1. Panopto:  This option is housed in your D2L course shell and is a video-sharing platform supported by NLU.  Detailed directions for recording and sharing with Panopto can be found
2. PowerPoint dictation:  Using this option, you would record a voice-over of your PowerPoint slides and share them with your instructor.  Directions for this option can be found
3. Zoom: you may use zoom to record your presentation, walking your audience through shared slides.  You would use the record function in zoom and then save your completed recording and share it with your instructor in D2L.  Directions for using zoom to record a presentation can be found .  This option does require that you sign up for a temporary free zoom account or that you have your own account.

Presentation Content Directions:  In your presentation, make sure to:

1. Define your skills. (3 Slides-one for each skill type)

a. Using Sidney Fines Three Kinds of Skills (linked ), identify one Transferable/Functional skill (what you can do), one personal trait/attitude (how you conduct yourself), and one knowledge-based skill (what you know)  that best define the strengths you bring to your internship at this moment. (You are encouraged to identify one of these skills from your Strengthsfinder survey.)

2.  Determine how your passions, values, and interests connect to the skills you have identified. (1 slide)

1. As you think about what you can do, how you behave, and what you know, its also important to think about what you care about and what you love.  Reflect on the connection and share your learnings in this slide.

3. Illustrate with a story.   (1 slide)

1. Select an event  from your recent past where you have demonstrated 

your identified skills. You might revisit the SOAR  format to tell your story, revisited . You could also consider the storytelling suggestions offered by Katherine Hanson in your assigned readings, found  (Your story must contain: what you wanted to accomplish, a hurdle or obstacles you encountered, a description of what you did, a description of the result that is measurable.)  If you absolutely need to tell more than one story, you can. The goal here is to show your audience how you have demonstrated the skills you have identified.

4. Determine Next Steps.  (1 slide)

1. Now that you have identified three current skills, identify ways that you might demonstrate  (or more effectively demonstrate) these skills in your current internship, job, or extracurricular activity.

Just to let you know that I am Computer Science student so present it accordingly

 Please answer all questions. Steve

• Some observers express concern about high reelection rates for incumbent members of Congress and have advocated for term limits as a way to formally remove longtime members of Congress. Why do you think these proposals for term limits are being advanced? Are there advantages to having long-serving members of Congress in office (e.g., when dealing with an entrenched bureaucracy)? What do recent election cycles say about the need for term limits? Are there other ideas for systemic reform such that challengers are placed on a more equal footing with incumbents?
• Given that most presidential powers are delegated and informal, the presidents ability to shape American politics is largely contingent on public support. To what extent do flagging political support or declining poll numbers hamper the presidents ability to lead Congress and the nation? Are there areas where this fact will be of little consequence? Discuss the suitability of public opinion polls for conferring a mandate on the president.
• Consider the positive and negative effects of profit in the context of several different areas of public bureaucracy. What is gained and what is lost by privatizing functions such as education policy, trash removal, criminal incarceration, and national defense? How might privatization affect the constitutional rights of citizens who deal with private companies?
• Do you believe that Judicial review, where the court can overturn Congress Laws if they are violating the US Constitution a measure of ensuring Democracy? I will love to hear your comments. Steve
• Why were the Foundering Fathers so concerned about the amount of power vested in the President? It was the most debated part of the Constitutional Convention in 1787. I will love to hear your comments. Steve
• Please read and comment. President powers are checked by congress. Steve

Topic for your initial response: Consider the definition of victimology. Of the various methods of collecting crime and victimization data discussed in this module and in any additional research that you conduct, which are best suited for use in researching victimology? Why? Expand your thoughts to think beyond the NCVS and other large surveys. What about smaller measures, such as the other surveys touched upon in the module resources. Are these instruments worth the investment?

More questions to consider in your initial response:

• Does qualitative or quantitative research best address victimization?
• How can the collection of data help or harm victims of crime?
