RE: FA1 Field Trip Questions and Answers

 

 

QUESTION 1:

What does standard 2 indicate about the "SUBJECT" block of the "send" window of each e-mail message? Why is that important?

ANSWER: Standard 2 indicates that all assignments should start with "501" followed by the assignment # ("FA1", "FA3" or whatever) and then your last name. So the instructor can see that the message relates to 501, refers to a specific assignment, and is from a particular scholar.

 

QUESTION 2:

What is the complete URL for each of the three following Quick Links from the bottom of that page? Also, please briefly describe what information you found to be of most interest posted at each link.
    Class Schedules
    Admission
    Questions

ANSWER:

The URL for Class Schedules is: http://ve.csusb.edu/schedule.html. On this page I found that the projected class schedules to be very helpful in planning my teaching credential program around my work and other activities and obligations in my life.

The URL for Admission is: http://ve.csusb.edu/admission.html. I found the information about the requirements to receive financial aide to be interesting and helpful.
The URL for Questions is: http://ve.csusb.edu/questions.html. I gained knowledge of

QUESTION 3:

What information (link) did you find to be of most interest and why?

The most interesting thing about this link were the sub-links (Where Our Program Graduates Have Found Employment) with the many agencies, companies, and businesses that have employment opportunities for one who possesses a credential from EVOC.

 

QUESTION 4:

What do the letters CASE stand for and how might information on this page be of value to you?

ANSWER:

CASE stands for Credential Assistance for Students in Education. Even though I am wasting no time in getting started with the EVOC program and have been granted a preliminary teaching credential. The information I found to be of value to me is knowing that it is best to apply for the CLEAR credential before my preliminary credential expires.

 

QUESTION 5:

If you have a California Teaching Credential, search using your own name. Otherwise use the name of someone you know who does have a California Teaching credential. In either case, briefly describe what you found.

ANSWER:

I found one of my colleagues name and status. It provided information about which type of credential they hold and the expiration date.

 

QUESTION 6:

Follow the link that leads to information about "Designated Subjects Credentials" then indicate what type of credential you have (or would like to get) and briefly describe what you believe is the most important information you found about that credential.

ANSWER:

I have been granted the Preliminary Designated Subjects Adult Education Teaching Credential: Full-Time. The most important information I found about that credential is that I have two years to complete my level I and additional 3 years for level II.

 

QUESTION 7:

First, search for information about Ron Pendleton (the one who is a professor at CSUSB) and indicate one thing you found to be of interest. Second, search for information about any person you know and indicate their name and one thing you found to be of interest.

ANSWER:

I found the One Page Biographical Sketch on Dr. Pendleton’s home page to be very interesting. I admire the many different positions and see inspiration and encouragement in his life experience.

I don’t know him on a personal basis but I do like his music. OZZY OSBOURNE led a ceremony March 19, 2004 for the ROCKWALK INDUCTION of RANDY RHOADS' a Legendary guitarist. About 200 fans turned out to see the and hear from Ozzy Osbourne himself, who praised Rhoads' virtuoso brand of heavy metal guitar playing.

 

QUESTION 8:

What three words best indicate what the letters ALI stand for and what did you find on the page (or links from the page) that was of particular interest to you?

ANSWER:

ALI stands for Apple Learning Interchange. I found this link with a Middle School Social Studies Lesson IdeaRights and Responsibilities: Grass Born to Be Stepped On” it was a very interesting lesson about the child and birth control in China which made me grateful to be an American.

 

 

QUESTION 9:

What is this page all about and to whom might it be helpful? AND - What information anywhere on this site did you personally find to be most interesting?

ANSWER:

The ROP/CTSS (Regional Occupational Program/Career Training and Support Services) department provides a variety of career and technical education courses and School-to-Career related services designed to prepare high school students (over 16 years of age) and adults for their future careers. This page would be helpful for anyone over the age of 16 to improve their quality of life through a career. Since I work with parolees I found the ROP courses and services are also available to youth and adults in the San Bernardino County juvenile court program, community school and the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department Glen Helen Rehabilitation and West Valley Detention Centers to be a very useful resource.

QUESTION 11:

Select one of the free tests. Indicate the name of the test and why you selected it. Take the test and provide a brief synopsis of what the (free) results were. Do you think the results were accurate?

ANSWER:

I took the Assertiveness Test because I often question my assertiveness and know that I need improvement in the is area. According to my results i seem to be doing relatively well in terms of standing up for myself. In most day-to-day situations, I  possess the necessary skills and inner confidence to tell others what I  need, think or want. There is, however, room for improvement. Yes I think these results were very accurate and precise.

QUESTION 12:

(For scholars who really want to demonstrate how good they are at finding things on the web). Who is Elin? What is the name of the painting you liked best and why did you like it?

ANSWER:

I have a strong feeling that Elin is Dr. Ron Pendleton’s wife. I read somewhere in his autobiography  that his wife is a renowned painter. The painting I liked the most was 

Borrego Palm, Desert Beauty because it reminds me of when I lived in California City about 25 years ago on one of my venture as a young man.
