This certificate recognizes my completion of a sexual assault resistance course course I took during my first undergraduate degree. This certificate reflects my strong value of sexual safety and security among all people. I have strived to develop a level of strength and understanding in this area so that I can be of help to others. This certificate is important to me as a teacher, because I believe this course will help me understand how to pay attention to students' health and recognize the warning signs of sexual assault and/or abuse so that I may be of assistance to students and staff members should they need it.
The mission of the Challenger Little League is to provide physically and developmentally challenged children, teens and young adults in Calgary and the surrounding area the opportunity to experience the fun of playing baseball. I spent a summer as a volunteer coach for two teams in this league. I coached teens and young adults with physical and developmental challenges the game of baseball and worked to make sure the every player had an opportunity to succeed and have fun. This is a picture of my two teams as well as the hat that I wore with pride when I was their coach. This photo demonstrates my passion for baseball and my belief that everyone can succeed and all children deserve equal opportunities regardless of their mental or physical ability.
The Collaborating for Learning Conference in 2013 was the 1st annual University of Calgary conference on post-secondary teaching and learning presented by the teaching and learning centre. I presented in this conference as a peer mentor giving quantitative evidence of increased student engagement due to the peer mentoring program as well as my experience as a peer mentor and how mentoring enriched my undergraduate experience. The write-up in the second image gives a more thorough explanation of the peer mentoring program and our conference presentation.
