SECTION 1

Main Entry: (Parts 1 & 2. Part 3 is optional)

Part 1: Many speak of opportunities – “When one door closes, another opens.” But rarely about the hallway. The transition. The in-between where you are and where you are headed. The hallway doesn’t have to be a scary, dark, endless confusion- it can be a space of massive transformation, great memories, and peace. – Unknown

And this is where we find ourselves here in Unit 8. In this hallway, a peaceful place where we can look backward in reflection, celebrate where we are, and look ahead to a bright future.

While we are all here in the hallway, let’s take the opportunity to inspire and guide each other as we move toward the next open door. Share your favorite inspirational quote, a song or song lyrics that fill you with positivity about the future, a speech or poem that you listen to/read to get in “right mind,” a line of scripture you hold near and dear during times of transition – whatever you have in you to give. Whether you write out the quote, share it in the form of a video link, or direct us to song lyrics, find a way to inspire your fellow classmates as we say goodbye this unit. Explain why you find this piece so inspirational/helpful and a bit about how it helps/has helped you in your life.

Part 2: Carrying forward with our hallway metaphor; let us first look back – what was your favorite memory during your time at UMGC or, if you are a transfer student, during your undergraduate career? Then, looking forward, share a little bit about what your next steps are following graduation. What do the next few months look like for you? The next year? What are your goals? Trepidations?

Part 3: (optional): If you are entering or re-entering the job market and explored the offerings of UMGC’s Career Services or the VMOCK system, talk a little bit about what you found helpful and what use it may have for others who have not yet had a chance to explore.

SECTION 2

Main Entry (Parts 1 & 2) 

Part 1: Pretend you are a clinical health psychologist, forensic psychologist, or neuropsychologist (choose the specialty you are most interested in) who is manning a booth at a psychology career fair. Graduating seniors are stopping by each booth to learn more about each subspeciality. 

a. You already have pamphlets to hand out with standard information (i.e., definitions, training, job roles, etc.). So, instead of giving that spiel, your supervisor has asked you to have a 1-minute story prepared that demonstrates why the subfield plays such a meaningful role both in individual client lives and on the global stage as well.

What is the 1-minute story you tell that gives the person who comes to your booth this powerful glimpse into the responsibility your subfield carries? You can write out this statement or! If you want to, you can try the “record video” option in the editor (the icon that has the play, pause, and stop button on it) and record yourself telling the story that way.

b. You will also have a clipboard at your booth where you collect email addresses for a mailing list.  You will use this mailing list to provide those who are interested links to important resources where they can learn more about a future trend in the discipline and a related multicultural research area in the discipline.

What links (scholarly articles, videos, web resources) will you be providing them? Specifically describe why each of those resources (and the ideas within them) will be important to a future practitioner in this discipline. 

c. You are also tasked with ordering some merchandise (aka “swag”) to keep in stock at your booth that represents the field in some memorable, metaphoric way. What mementos might you order to pass out at your booth to remind students of the importance and value of the subfield you chose?

For example, let’s say that sports psychology was an option (it’s not in this case, but we don’t want this example to be too on-the-nose) – one might order a bunch of stress balls in the shape of basketballs with the phrase “Shape champions, transform lives!” inscribed on it. This message is threefold – the stress ball represents a coping skill, the basketball represents the sports angle, and the motto summarizes the value of the field.  

Part 2: We’ve certainly learned a lot in our eight units together! If you had to identify one or more “big ideas” you are walking away with, what would they be and why do they stick out to you?  

If you are left with any questions as we wrap up, please ask! You can also use this moment to say goodbye to your peers and your instructor.
