A Journey that come to its End

Module 1

Three months quickly passed by. I didn’t notice it as I am too busy at work. I moved to a different company to enhance my skills and make me feel that my knowledge and ability is not wasted. This hard time for me is like a battle of my own self to each other. As a Gemini, I have 2 personalities that I need to balance for me to be on the right track. At the beginning of the term, I am struggling between enrolling or not to enroll due to the pandemic. I am living in Metro Manila which we know that this area has high risk of the effect of the pandemic.

I realize as time go by that we mean it or not, we possess most of the theories mentioned by different psychologist. As we grow older, we will think and analyze and smile saying to ourselves that “Yes, this psychologist was correct, I have been in that position before”, something like that. As a grown up, almost all the theories mentioned passed me through. This is the hardest time of my life that for the first time in my life, I feel so much stressed, pressured, and depressed. Never in my whole life that I experience, or feel being depressed. I thought it will not pass me by, but it did, and I am still here, working my way out.

We are all brave enough to understand those theories and finished this term successfully. I have been here for almost three years and most of the students gave up in the middle of the term. Let’s congratulate each other for hanging up to this day and time of this subject. Hope to see you guys and good luck to all of your future endeavor. I hope this subject and lessons that we learn will be a good take home lesson that we can use as future educators to our future students and upcoming generation.

Cognitive Development Theory

Module 1.2 Cognitive development is how a person perceives, thinks, and gains understanding of their world through the relations of genetic and learning factors. There are four stages to cognitive information development and they are reasoning, intelligence, language, and memory . I try to recall things that I did when I was young but I can only remember things that I did as far as when I am five years old during my daycare center child hood. I remember this coloring book. It is still with me up to this day and I keep it as part of my childhood memory. One day, our teacher asked us to color a page wherein I color a dog's head of green instead of white, black or brown which is the normal fur color of dogs head. I don't know what come sin my mind by that time. Maybe I instill in my mind that our teacher told us to color so I just color it. When my father saw it, he is laughing like no tomorrow and then when I realize, it is like.. ..oh my gosh, what did I do? Well, I cant remove ...

Nature-Nurture Development

 Module 1.1 As my previous journal, I mentioned that I almost didn't grew up at home, together with my biological family. Although I believe in Nature-Nurture Development, I still want to insist that growing in a different environment actually affects someone's belief. One clear example is me. At home, we never discuss politics. We eat dinner together, yes but breakfast and lunch is no. Both my parents are working. My mom working in my Auntie's grocery store in town while my father who works at different farm of different people nearby. Life in the province is never that easy especially if your family and parents wants a different life from them. In terms of cognitive development, I would say that I got being an animal lover and having a green thumb from my father while being thrifty is something from my mom. Those traits I believe is something that is part of nature. Got those genes from my parents. In terms of nurture, my environment gave me a lot. I am a keen observant a...

Socio-Emotional Processes

Module 1.3 I am 24 years old when I started to work overseas as OFW in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Housemaid/nanny/tutor, that's my application. At first it was not an easy journey or task as it is my first time working overseas. I am the youngest among the three siblings and yet I am the first one and only one who dream this far. Working overseas. It is my dream when I was in my secondary days but I never thought that it will be fulfilled in a different manner or way which I didn't plan. Yes, it is my dream to work overseas but not as a housemaid. Don't get me wrong, I didn't belittled our OFW's but what I mean is, I want to work overseas but as a skilled worker since I am able to finish Food Technology way back. I am already in KSA when that though pass me one day. Home sickness attack I guess but it is after three months when I feel it. I am used to be far from home. I don't have a close bond with my family at all especially to my intelligent sisters. I am close...
