2V Initiative

The Webster dictionary definition of initiative is, an introductory step. My view of this definition is putting yourself out there and going out into the world. My experience with initiative was with applying for college. I knew what I wanted to do with my life, so I researched all of the colleges and universities that had communication disorders. After I discovered these institutions I was the one to call and email to set up tours and visits. Without my initiative to want to pursue a college education I would not be at Southern. I most likely would have ended up at Norwalk Community College because I didn’t do all this research.

       One word I discovered this week was Jargon. The definition of jargon is confused unintelligible language. My experience with jargon’s is language I don’t understand and that I have to look up in the dictionary. Also when people speak any foreign language for me it feels like a jargon.

       Another good word I talked about in my classes this week is composition. Composition is the act of organizing and writing things. Composition I have learned is very important throughout your college experience. In the notes I took this week it said it is very important to take a composition class because it helps you become at better reader and writer.
