Peer Educators/Reading Article


Finished filming today guys good job!! I feel like we definitely hit that last minute mark on the project but I can’t wait to see the finished product on Wednesday in class! Oh, and we’ll get to see who we’re pared up with, soooo exciting!! J

Anyways, this past week Tanner and Brooke led our last class with us mentors teaching! Man did it fly by, good job guys we all did great!  This time we had pretty much tied everything all of us taught all together and it was a good review because I honestly forgot what we had covered a few months ago, I may or may not have short term memory loss haha.  We focused on the peer educators we have on campus and as a class we came up with a very decent amount!  Some of them I don’t even think about we just use it, does that make sense?  We have it so good here with how many leaders/peer educators we can go to if we need help, I’m very thankful for that.

We also then discussed the article we had to read.  I never really thought about how important personality went into the decision process of hiring someone.  I mean I work for my parents and when they had asked about people from high school that they could hire I always told them pick this person they’re really nice and responsible and blah dee blah but I guess I just wasn't aware that I was doing that at the time.  I would prefer to work with someone who I can get along with and have a good time and still be responsible and get my work done than someone who just makes work utterly terrible and is always one of those strict bosses.  I hope I can remember this for when I start interviewing for jobs and hopefully I’ll be the person they’re looking for!

  1. I'm excited to see who we're paired up with too! I think that there a lot of hiring aspects that we don't think about sometimes, but personality seems to be a really big one!

  2. agree with everyone doing great this semester! Working with someoneyou know would be ideal, but chances are that it will never happen. Getting along with people and being able to work with them is a great trait to have. Great post!
