Week #11 Reflection Topic

• What specific skills have you used at your community site?
• What other skills will be important for you to develop to excel in your career field?
• Have your career options been expanded by your service experience? Why or why not?

Refelction Week #10

We all have both internal and external motivators. Please identify 5 internal and 5 external motivators that are impacting your career choice. Discuss which is most important and why.  Feel free to look up more information online to enhance your reflection.

Extrinsic motivation occurs when we are motivated to perform a behavior or engage in an activity in order to earn a reward or avoid a punishment.

Intrinsic motivation involves engaging in a behavior because it is personally rewarding; essentially, performing an activity for its own sake rather than the desire for some external reward.
