These presentations taught me that CPR can save lives, Naloxone can reverse opioid overdoses but only lasts about 20 minutes, and substance use can be very dangerous but for most it isn’t a choice. I also learned about the Good Samaritan Act, which protects people from legal trouble when they call for help during an overdose. Learning CPR made me feel more confident in an emergency, and the Naloxone training showed how it can help someone survive but also that medical help is still needed because the overdose can return. The talk about substances reminded me why it’s important to make safe choices. Overall, these lessons helped me understand how I can help others and stay safe.

Critical and Reflective Thinking Competency Reflection

I can analyze evidence to make judgments: This relates to me because I use facts and information to make decisions instead of just relying on opinions. For example, in the Naloxone presentation, I learned that Naloxone only lasts 20 minutes, so I now understand why calling 911 is still important even after giving it.

Curricular Response:

This project shows both strengths and areas to improve in my writing. A strength is the use of clear examples, like Marilyn Dumont’s poem and Joseph Boyden’s identity controversy, to support my ideas. The conclusion is strong and ties everything together well. However, some sentences are a bit long and could be clearer. I also need to improve transitions between ideas to make the paragraph flow better. Moving forward, I’ll focus on keeping my writing clear and connected.

Core Competency Self Reflection:

One of my top priorities in the coming weeks for EFP 11 is to use my class time more wisely, especially for reading. Sometimes I find myself rushing through texts or getting distracted, which makes it harder to fully understand and analyze what I’m reading. I want to focus on reading more carefully during class so I can better connect the material to my assignments. This will also give me more time at home to work on other things. By improving how I use my class time, I’ll be able to feel less rushed and hand in better work.
