Co-op Program a Success j; At St. Stephen's School * STUDENTS' COM: MENTS AND EXPERIENC ES IN THEIR CO-OP PLACEMENTS : Sometimes it is hard for students to decide what direction direction they should take, once they are finished with High School. Often they have an idea of what they want to pursue, but are afraid to get too involved in case they realize that they don't feel comfortable with what they are doing. Co-op is an excellent way for students students to experience, first hand, the field in which they are interested, before they spend a possible year or two in University, frustrated, confused and regretting their choice of professions. _ * I, myself, have now been in the co-op program for nearly two months. I am finding the experience quite enjoyable, but most of all, very beneficial. • My co-op placement is at the Taunton Road Animal Hospital, which is located in Cshawa. My morning at the hospital usually commences around 8:00 a.m. and finishes finishes at 11:45. ; Through my work at the animal hospital, I have discovered discovered many positive things about myself. I have realized that 1 can communicate communicate freely with my supervisor supervisor and the rest of the staff. In the past, I had been extremely extremely shy and even intimidated intimidated by others. I feel comfortable comfortable with the rest of the staff and I find it so much easier to talk to them. Co-op, in my opinion, is a truly advantageous experience. experience. First of all, it allows the student time away from the often restricting environment environment of school. The students can learn and at the same time are enjoying what they are doing because it is practical, practical, hands on experience in a field that they wish to pursue. pursue. They are in ta otally different different environment than, when they are in school. Those students who might not do too well in formal classes could find co-op a whole different experience and benefit greatly from it as they really like it and put forth more effort into their job.

I am working as a special needs teaching assistant at Lord Elgin Public School, Bowmanville. I go to co-op daily from nine until twelve every morning. I work in the special needs classroom there with the teacher and three other assistants. We teach life skills to five students students who have a variety of disabilities. Through this placement I have discovered that I really do enjoy working with special special needs children. This was one ot my main reasons for taking co-op, to see if this was something I could consider consider as a career. I have found that I have a strong desire to help children with special needs; to make them better able to cope in the day to day world. I have also found that I was right in thinking that physiotherapy isn't the right field for me. I once thought that I would possibly enjoy that as a career career but my doubts have been reinforced through my experiences at co-op. I would much rather work and help with children's minds and emotions than just rehabilitating rehabilitating their bodies. Through co-op, I have developed developed a stronger patience when working with children and I have leaned not to always always expect an immediate response, but that some things take time. My initiative initiative in finding jobs to do and going ahead and doing a task that needs to be done is improving as I become more and more accustomed to the classroom routines. This has been a very good educational experience from a medical point of view since I have been learning about different different diseases, anatomy, and muscle structures involved in the physiotherapy aspect. I am further developing my responsibility, patience, ana compassion necessary for life and future situations.
