This semester has been challenging as we transitioned to online learning. However, Jacob always made sure to check in and support us during this strange time. Every assignment was intentional, and I will use what I’ve learned through and beyond my academic career. #RHUB305
@Angelic48159032 That’s great Angelica! This assignment is definitely helpful for us especially as we approach the end of undergrad. I’m glad you’re able to recognize what you need to know in order to be successful! #RHUB305
The Professional Development has been super helpful for me. This assignment encouraged me to apply for a job related to my major, and I just found out I got the job. It got me thinking about how I need to start this process early in undergrad. #RHUB305
@YanessaZepeda I also had the same question when formatting my CV. I think it’s best to only include relevant experience that tailors to the guidelines of the job you are applying for. #RHUB305
I plan to apply to SDSU for a Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology. In my statement of purpose, I will explain my interest in applying to the program while using the relevance of my experience to set myself apart from other prospective students. #RHUB305
I plan to highlight my educational experiences in my CV. I want to focus on specific skills and strengths that I have acquired through these experiences to prove that I am qualified. #RHUB305
@aye_nayee I think that’s a great idea! It’s important that we continue to develop our skills now so that when we enter the job market, we will be amply prepared. #RHUB305
“Advice for Undergraduates Considering Graduate School” is helpful in conveying tips for the application process. I think it’s most important to begin making connections and getting involved as an undergrad in order to make yourself marketable to grad schools. #RHUB305
There’s a high demand for speech pathologists so I feel confident in my future career plans despite the ongoing pandemic. However, this article just reinforces the fact that I need to be doing everything I can to enhance my application for grad school. #RHUB305
@Angelic48159032 Hey Angelica. I can definitely relate to this. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed especially with other classes. Don’t stress too much. It’s important to find a balance between school work and tending to your mental health. #RHUB305
At this point in the semester, my life is a constant study session. Fortunately, I’m on top of all my school work despite feeling overwhelmed. Research has been a little tricky, but I’m finding good content nonetheless. #RHUB305
An important sub-claim I will discuss in my essay is the concept of “difference versus disorder”. People voluntarily engage in the service of accent modification which means that a speech pathologist will not approach this as remediation of a disorder. #RHUB305
@Erica35394265 I think this image definitely helps your audience understand the concept of cochlear implants. Even if I wasn’t a SLHS major, this image would still make sense to me and help me understand your overall argument. #RHUB305
This diagram will help convey how accents are a direct result of tongue placement and mouth shape. Speech-language pathologists use this knowledge of phonetics in order to help people change or modify their accents. #RHUB305
This article would be useful for my research because ASHA is a professional association for speech-language pathologists and audiologists. They provide current information on everything that concerns speech, language, and hearing sciences. #RHUB305

@Erica35394265 I feel that this is a very important topic in regards to SLHS. I know the Deaf community is very proud of being Deaf so I’m interested to see what their perspective is on the use of cochlear implants. #RHUB305
I am interested in researching about accent modification which is related to my major of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences. I’m curious why this service is so frequently sought. More specifically, why do people believe one accent is better than another? #RHUB305
@RostiMichael I agree. In regards to Kairos, this letter could even be relevant if it was written in today’s current state of affairs. The injustices that were occurring during the Civil Rights movement are still happening now with police brutality. #RHUB305
In Lamar’s letter to President Obama, he addresses his concerns for police misconduct within the Deaf community. In regards to letter writing, he is effective in addressing his apprehension by sharing a personal anecdote that will appeal to the President’s emotions. #RHUB305
King’s letter highlights the injustices that remain consistent within the Black community. His use of personal anecdotes and call to action are effectively persuasive because it evokes a sense of urgency from his audience. #RHUB305
