 Assignment, 0 points because of computer issues
Posted by anita van de goor

To my assessment peers whom could not open the link to my assignment. I wrote and added this page on August 25 2013. I had computer issues as I wrote in my statement. Little did I know the work was not visible; I got a message from Coursera that my page was activated. Because of this, I did not earn any points for the first assignment of the 'Social Psychology' 2013 course.
I accept it. There is nothing I can do about what happened beyond my control. But if you're still interested, this is what I wrote:


My name is Anita. I was born in The Netherlands and moved to Canada in 2003. I accomplished my high school equivalent diploma and later I became a Dutch problem dog behavior therapist.
Long name but in short: I am interested in dog behavior including problem behavior.
I trained a search- and resque dog and we went on several national and international missions.

I like people and their behavior so I decided to take the social psychology course.
I consider myself introvert if I really have to choose between introvert and extrovert.
Not religious but I do believe that we are born to learn and gain knowledge so hence this course.

The other important reason why I'm doing this course is to know more about my own behavior and what drives me. I do think I know myself rather well but learned that others have a point too when they describe me. Did I mention I like humor and laughter?

I live in Canada with a husband two kids and animals. I plan to take more coursera courses, especially about animal behavior and psychology.
