Blog #1 - Why is writing important?


              My career goals are to obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Early Child Development, and become a Child Life Specialist. The duties of a Child Life Specialist include coming up with activities and strategies to help children and their families cope with traumatic injuries or situations. Communication is a very big part of this job, so learning how to write and communicate effectively is very important for me and my career goals. The kind of writing I will have to do might range from data entry and informational-type writing, to coming up with lesson plans and fun activities for the children. I feel that I will have to improve on my communication skills so that I can be successful in my career.
