High School Class, Veterinary Science

As an educator, I am a strong advocate for hands on learning. I envision my classroom with students actively learning by manipulating objects, preforming experiments, creating, presenting, teaching one another, and most importantly connecting what they learned to the real world. This type of instruction reaches students with different learning styles

At Heritage High School i will take Agriscience my freshman year. Heritage High School offers a lot of good agricultural classes. I will have to opportunity to take agriscience my freshman year that will help me out later on in life if i decide to become a veterinarian for large animals. In high school it will allow me to sample the agriculture department. Course one is Agriscience, Course two is small animal science, Course three is large animal science, Course four is veterinary science. Agriscience is what i will be taking my freshman year. Agriscience is not a year long class. It will only

The baying of dogs echoed throughout the building; the caterwauls of cats, the calls of birds, and the occasional soothing words spoken to the unnerved animals followed them. The veterinarian walked into the office and met with his aide. The injured animal had already been given anaesthesia, x-rays of its bones had been taken, and the tools that the veterinarian would need were set for operation. This is the job of a veterinary technician; the career of a vet tech is one that many people pursue from the moment they hear of it, and those like myself are determined to work hard to get to it. Those who already work in the field could tell you a waterfall of reasons why being a vet tech is admirable, but here are three of my own; one reason is because of the enjoyment it can bring, the second is because of what vet techs do, and the third is because of the payment. So, if you want to learn about vet techs, and maybe even become one like myself, keep on reading!

Some people dwell on things and allow them to swallow up their lives. I’ve learned that some things just aren’t worth it. Second lesson, family comes first. I’ve learned the hard way too many times that your family will always support you, and have your back. Even though they did not always agree with the decisions I’ve made, they never stopped supporting me nor stopped loving me. Third lesson, do what makes you happy. Everyone always speaks about having money and a luxurious job. I would prefer to make decent paycheck and wake up happy with the job I have, than make a bunch of money and dread waking up every morning to go to work. Lastly, be grateful. Be grateful for the love you have received; be grateful for the times your parents yelled at you because it means they care, be grateful for the memories you share and overall be grateful for the life you’ve lived.

Veterinarians are people who care for the health of animals and work to improve public health. Veterinarians can go into different kinds of veterinary practices. They can go into specific animal categories and take care of huge animals like elephants or they can take care of small animals like hamsters. It all depends on what they like best and feel comfortable with. All of them have at least one thing in common and that is their love for animals. Veterinarians are a lot like doctors only they do various things with animals, not people. Veterinarians diagnose and treat diseases and dysfunctions of animals. Specifically, they care for the health of pets, livestock, and animals in zoos, racetracks, and laboratories. Some veterinarians use their

Veterinarians are very important in society. Their jobs are overlooked at times, and their work is often difficult. This strenuous work can cause problems, such as psychological and depression issues, which many people would never think of. These are struggles that can be challenging on a daily basis. The veterinary profession may not be the most suitable job.

This new animal is similar to one creature that lives on earth. It lives on a very rainy planet, that is dark and cold most of the time. This rocky planet inhabits only small moss like shrubs and fungi. This very planet is where I found a new and mysterious creature. This planet has little streams filled with colorful fish. They look like snakeskin discusses, but the size of minnows. There are also small slow-moving beetles that have hard shells so predators can't eat them. There is also a mouse type creature that lives on the planet and a large nocturnal hunting cat.

In 2017, a new tax was proposed by President Trump causing a tremendous amount of controversy in the veterinary world. This tax will place “tax on all small animal services with a 6% sales tax”(Sadler) which in “our world it will make it tough”(Sadler). The “Doctors of Veterinary Medicine are medical professionals whose primary responsibility is protecting the health and welfare of animals and people”(Veterinary) which the tax will enable us to do so. The role of a vet is to aid animals but with the tax this will undoubtedly harm them. This ‘simple tax’ to the world is nothing shy of a catastrophe, it includes several challenges and downsides. With circumstances in rural areas, taxes on a veterinary environment would be undoubtedly problematic

Small animal science is an intermediate course in animal science and helps students that is interested in learning more about becoming a veterinarian, vet tech, vet assistant, or pursuing a variety of scientific, health, or agriculture professions. By using basic research it will help you to understand the biological and chemical processes of how crops and livestock grow. Animal scientists analyze data and make use of statistical techniques, and computer skills are also useful for the job. To research the knowledge it will help gain ways to improve the quality, quantity, and safety of the agricultural products. To be a small animal scientist you will have to deal with dogs, cats, rats and

Life lessons are mistakes you have learned from and can apply to your life the next time you go through something similar. There are a variety of lessons that one can learn(or that i learned?) from the book such as forgiveness, the impact you have, everybody has to make sacrifices, and you can choose how you deal with situations you are faced with.

Diagnosis of diseases in the veterinary field by using tissue/cell culture or antibodies, are adopted by various techniques such as neutralization (Borchers et al., 2005; Taniguchi et al., 2000), Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) (Langedijk, et al., 2001), Agar Gel Immunodiffusion (Alvarez et al., 2010) and Complement Fixation Test (CFT) (Hartley et al., 2005; Adone et al., 2008). In the past few years ago onwards, the veterinary diagnosticians has been incorporated new molecular techniques such as the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Western blot and improved older techniques through the use of recombinant antigens, monoclonal antibodies and synthetic peptides (Okonko et al., 2006). Nowadays, the molecular

Most of life's situations are learning experiences. People can learn what activities are right or wrong for them by experiences these emotions in different situations. These learning experiences can take place at home, school, the workplace, or anywhere else. The three major experiences that have given me confidence in my ability to learn have all taken place at Penn State University.
