article, Andrew Abbott explores his evolving conception of the social work profession. As we approach the new millennium, Abbott's conception becomes strikingly relevant. In brief review, Abbott's first notion posits that social work is a profession of interstitiality. In this context, social workers translate and mediate between collogues in highly technical professions and their own social work clients.

Abbott, two men from different dimensions argue about which one of their societies is right and more superior.

I have spent my eight week practicum at the Woodstock High School where I was an Educational Assistant (E.A.). I was expected to help students in various classes with various subjects. We (the students and I) worked on regular class assignments and projects.

While working at the high school
Safety in school labs Safety remains one of the key elements in modern school labs; it is necessary for the staff to ensure the safety of all the lab users. Every chemical and equipment in the laboratory have the potential to harm if adequate safety measures are not taken into account. As lab uses, you have to consider that you follow the basic safety guidelines for the lab sessions. Always be aware of all the general safety precaution and familiarize yourself with the appropriate protective

I chose to use the powerpoint and lesson I taught and modify it for this assignment. This was much easier to say than do. This was a good experience though because it taught me even modifying a lesson

Master students I have witnessed at our University. My laboratory studies the behavioral, electrophysiological and neuroanatomical aspects of spinal cord injury – with the overall objective to recover motor and sensory function after paralysis in rodents. Tiffany grabbed my attention in the lab from the very onset – after initially recruiting Tiffany to my lab as a Masters student, I was fascinated by her commitment to research in the laboratory. She started shadowing my post-doc and research assistants
Different laboratories conduct different experiments which could involve radioactive chemicals, pathogenic micro-organism which can cause infectious diseases, flammable and explosive substances (Hse.gov.uk, 2015). So the laboratory personnel have a greater effect on the safety as it affects them and the laboratory environment because each individual workers attitude will decide whether they will undergo injury or damage to themselves or the laboratory (Hse.gov.uk, 2015).
