Week 2 Discussion

DQ1 What
difficulties or challenges do you anticipate as you prepare your journal
entries throughout this course? For your first response to this question, give
your answer to this question. Then read the responses of your fellow students
and give them some feedback and suggestions as to how they might solve or avoid
the problems they are anticipating. Hopefully someone will also have some
suggestions for you!

DQ2 By this
time, you have been to your site at least once, maybe several times. From what
you have seen so far, what theories, research findings, concepts, or other
knowledge in your field do you think will be most applicable to you as a
volunteer? Explain your reasons. As you look at the responses of other
volunteers, especially those in the same major as you, what are your thoughts
about what they wrote? That is, can you understand why they wrote what they
did? Can you suggest other theories, concepts, research findings, etc., that
they didn’t think of? If so, explain to them why you think these other ideas
might help their volunteer experience.

Week 3 Discussion

DQ1 Briefly
describe how you used problem-solving skills to resolve a problem you
encountered during your volunteering experience. (The problem may not have been
one in the organization. It could be one you encountered that had to do with
your role or how you were going to accomplish things as a volunteer.) After you
have posted your contribution, read the contributions of two or three other
students and make constructive suggestions as to alternate ways they might have
dealt with the problem they presented. Be as specific as you can – do not
simply say something like, “you should have handled it differently.”

DQ2 The
IDEAL problem-solving process developed by Bradford and Stein (1993) is
implemented by: (I) Identifying the problem, (D) Defining the problem, (E)
Exploring strategies, (A) Acting on ideas, and (L) Looking for effects. Think
back to the problem you discussed in DQ1 or use a new problem that you have
experienced in your volunteer (internship) experience. How can you use the
IDEAL problem-solving process to help you solve the issue you have encountered?
Please give examples that engage each of the steps in the IDEAL model.

A
personal-social objective.

educational objective.

A career
objective.

to make better career decisions.

Week 5 Discussion

DQ1 Meet
with the human resources director or the hiring person at your site. (If there
is no one with that title, speak with whoever does some of the interviews of
prospective new employees.) Ask that person at least five questions to find out
his/her best and worst interview experiences. Describe the five questions that
you asked and the answers that you received when you met with the human
resources director or hiring person at your site.

DQ2 What
interview types did this person describe? For example, consider the screening,
the selection, the group, the competitive, the panel, or the stress interview
types.
