2. Student will demonstrate personal, School Self-discipline is the idea of setting standards for oneself to achieve a personal goal. For myself I have
organizational, and academic examples of a set goal of maintaining a GPA above 3.5. This standard I have for myself leads to me to make daily
self-discipline decisions based off of it. I try to keep myself as organized as possible in my personal and academic
life so I can make sure I live up to this expectation. I try not to overbook myself so that I can reserve
time for studying for my courses and completing homework.
3. Student will demonstrate the ability to College Managing emotions are a big part of college, they also go hand in hand with stress management. A
manage emotions time I’ve had to manage my emotions this semester is when I got a poor grade on a chemistry exam.
At first I wanted to break down and immediately start crying and doubting myself, but instead I
reviewed the exam and looked at what I did wrong and figured out how to do it the right way so that I
would be better prepared for the next exam. I also went to my teacher to see how I can make up
points in the class so that the grade wouldn’t be too detrimental. Managing my emotions here instead
of acting impulsively let me better prepare for the future in that class.
4. Student will demonstrate knowledge of College Being in college for any major can be extremely stressful trying to manage a social, academic, and
stress management methods work lives. There are all different ways to manage stress. A student can reserve time for self-care
such as tv time, music time, or anything else that makes them happy. Some students even use
stress balls or other types of objects that can be used to relive stress. Managing stress can involve
pausing what you’re doing and taking deep breaths and reevaluating what you’re working on.
5. Student will demonstrate the ability to School Being a PharmD major I always have things due because of the rigorous courses I have to take. At
manage stress times I’ll have exams on the same days which causes me to become very stressed out, especially
even more stressed. When I get stressed out like this I like to just sit back and listen to my favorite
music and play with a stress ball for a good five minutes to regroup. Then, I come up with a plan to
accomplish all the work I have to get done on time.

10. Student will demonstrate the ability to COM 100 In our COM 100 class this semester we had a group project. Our group was struggling to decide on a
lead a project from start to finish (follow- topic so I suggested a Narragansett Beach cleanup. We all agreed upon it and then we had to divide
through) up who what do what sections of the speech, I helped to delegate this situation and ask people if they
were comfortable handling each section rather than just assigning them. I checked in on everyone’s
progress as we approached our deadline to ensure all the work was being done and that we would get
the best grade possible. Delivering our speech went really well and we received a really good grade!
I was able to help lead this group from beginning to end in order to complete our assignment.
12. Student will show evidence of goals and North Woods HDF 190 In our HDF 190 class our small groups had to pick a place to make a social change. My group
objectives that were planned and Challenge Course decided to help clean the North Woods Challenge Course just off campus. So, our group sat down
achieved and planned a date for us all to get together and clean the course. It took us weeks to finally find a
day we ‘d all be free, but we figured it out. The day of our clean up, Marina picked us all up and we
headed to the challenge course with the objective of cleaning up all the trash. We ended up being
there about two hours and filling almost two whole bags of trash. So, we were able to organize and
plan an event to achieve a common goal among our group.
28. Student will describe personal application Camp Counselor Job HDF 190 I can use the servant leadership theory in my camp counselor job training. I will need to work with my
of the above theory (Greenleaf) coworkers in order to develop a plan help our kids have the best summer ever while still ensuring they
develop as people. This cooperation with my peers demonstrates the stewardship and building a
community characteristics. I also need to use empathy and listening when working with my coworkers
to make sure we understand each other and get done all the work we have to do.

38. Student will describe personal application HDF 190 After discussing the “4 V’s” in our HDF 190 class, we had to fill out a worksheet that told us
of the above theory (Grace) what our value, vision, voice, and virtue are. These results were based on our strengths and
values and we had to come up with out statements for vision and voice. These applications
to my real life really helped me understand myself more and what I really value and want in
life.

42. Student will describe personal application Lambda Kappa HDF 190 In my HDF 190 class, we discussed Relational Leadership and the different parts of the
of the above theory (Komives et al) Sigma model. Here on campus I’m involved in the pharmacy sorority Lambda Kappa Sigma
(LKS). LKS effectively uses the Relational Model because leadership in our organization is
divided up amongst our executive members. Each member does a good job at following the
Relational Model. They’re inclusive by listen to each sisters’ opinions and ideas, are always
empowering each other and others through support, have a common purpose of creating a
strong and supporting community that works together to achieve common goals, have
ethical bylaws each member must follow in order to remain a part of LKS, and are process-
oriented through events that build sisterhood to create a stronger sense of community among
everyone.

47. Student will show knowledge of the HDF 190 In our HDF 190 class we discussed the social change model of leadership. The social
“Social Change Model of Leadership change model can be separated into thee categories: group values, individual values, and
Development” by Astin et al
community values. There are also seven subcategories known as the seven C’s:
collaboration, common purpose, controversy with civility, citizenship, consciousness of self,
congruence, and commitment. Collaboration is about working as a group to work towards a
common goal. Common purpose is when a group has a shard vision or goal. Controversy
with civility is when people share their differing opinions, but still listen to others ideas and
respect it. Citizenship is about being a part of a group. Consciousness of self is being
aware of others options and feelings. Congruence is “walking the talk”. Finally,
commitment is a group being able to follow through with their set goal.

132. Student will show knowledge of the stages HDF 190 Tuckman’s model describes the cycle of how groups form and accomplish their goal. There are five
of group development (Tuckman/Tuckman stages of group development which include forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning.
& Jensen, Bennis or others)
In the forming stage groups the group is still new and members aren’t fully committed yet and there is
no clear plan set. In the storming stage members get to know each other a little more and form
relationships with one another, there is also brainstorming about the goal of the group. During the
norming stage trust is formed throughout the group and some process gets done, also there is more
committeemen from everyone and a clear purpose is established. In the performing stage the
members are all very efficient in what they do, they all work well together and are motivated. Finally, in
the adjourning stage the final goal is achieved and the team celebrates their success.

133. Student will describe personal examples of Small Group in HDF 190 Our small group that we used all semester in HDF 190 went through all the stages of Tuckman’s
group development in use (Tuckman/ model of group development. First, we were formed during our FLITE retreat and thrown in a group
Tuckman & Jensen, Bennis or others). with a majority of people we didn’t really know and were told this would be our group for the remainder
of the course. The storming process occurred when we were trying to get to know one another, we
were discussing each others life plans and leadership backgrounds. In this stage we also realized
who we really got along with in the group and found our “people”. The norming stage was
demonstrated in April when we began to plan out our group project by working together to achieve a
common goal. The performing stage happened when we presented our group project. We worked
together to present a project that we worked hard on. We all had trust in one another to complete
what had to be done by each person. Finally, adjourning happened when we met one last time
together on the quad to reflect the semester and celebrate all the hard work we did.
138. Student will show knowledge of the HDF 190 An even amount of challenge and support is needed in order for something to be done right. If you
Challenge and Support theory by Sanford, give someone too much support they’ll never learn to be independent on the task and too much
and its relationship to organizations challenge can cause frustration and someone to quit. These ideas can connect to the real world in
college. A student given too much support will never learn a concept and if they are given too much
challenge a student will quit the assignment and get frustrated.
