Post #2: TIL, Professionalism - 9/9/15

Today I learned about the different aspects of professionalism, a few quick tips for technology, and how to research effectively:

Professionalism has many aspects to it, but there are a few key words that sum up most of what professionalism means the best: Integrity, respect, and maturity. The first of these, integrity, will lead tot people being more willing to trust you with things and giving you mores responsibilities. The second is Maturity. Having maturity in the work place will lead to you gaining the respect of your patients and co-workers. This leads to the final key word that describes professionalism, and that is respect. if you have respect for others than they will have respect for you, also patients will feel more comfortable with you which is very important in the medical field.

I also learned a few cool things that can help me on the computer. If I press Ctrl 1 it single spaces what I'm writing, but if I press Ctrl 2 it double spaces my writing. I also learned how to embed things to my blog which is important because that's how I get graded, but it also makes my blog more professional and more interactive. In addition to embedding and Ctrl 1 and 2, I learned what bubbl.us is and how it can help me organize my thoughts and again make things look more professional.

Lastly, I learned a few ways to research effectively. The first is that if a website has .edu or .gov or .org it is more likely to have information that will be helpful and is more likely to be reliable. I also learned that if you go to a website you can search for certain words by hitting Ctrl+F. This is good for when there is a lot of information on a page and you are looking for a few specific things.
