It may not be all the time that they work effectively. When it comes to being effective, people will have many different definitions. Administrative Secretary Mrs. Huff said, \u201cTo me being effective is when you are organized. You have to be on top of things and alert.\u201d Also, senior Sommer McClellan said that working effectively is \u201cworking hard and getting things done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Students or staff workers could have a certain time when they worked really hard on something; a time where they were most effective. Senior Emmelyn Brandt said, \u201cFor student council we do a party for underprivileged kids and I feel like I worked really hard to raise money for them.\u201d Also sophomore Matthew Favorite said, \u201cWell when a teacher is looking over me I work harder. I have to have motivation.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8674\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/DSC_0271.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8674\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8674\" alt=\"DSC_0271\" src=\"http:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/DSC_0271-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8674\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">To senior Emmelyn Brandt, being effective means a lot to her because she is able to get her work done.

Sophomore Tyler Meece said, \u201cI like working in a team because it\u2019s less boring and I get more work done.\u201d Senior Sidney Listenberger said, \u201cI like working by myself because I can rely on myself better than other people.\u201d Mrs. Huff said, \u201cWell I&#8217;d have to say I like a little of both. I like working by myself to decide on my time limit so that I can organize, but I also like working on a team pulling together working with everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When a person is being effective he or she has certain traits. The traits could be anything. Listenberger said that the traits of an effective person are, \u201cHelpful, caring, and hardworking. If you have these traits you are willing to get your stuff done and help people.\u201d Also Brandt said, \u201cHard working, respectful, and kind. To be effective I think you have to be able to be kind to others and [a part] of being kind is helping other people and being able to work for what you are working towards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Being effective can make a person have certain feelings. It could be feeling accomplished or it could just be something simple like feeling happy. Sophomore Maria Vazques said, \u201cI feel satisfied when I am being effective and working hard.\u201d Sophomore Mia Arroyo said, \u201cI get more motivated and I feel like I have more positive feedback when I do the work I really care about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Being effective could be hardworking or just being motivated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Gillian Larew Being effective influences students or staff workers on how they work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":178,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[51],"class_list":["post-8621","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-feature","tag-february-2014"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8621"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/178"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8621"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8621\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8700,"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8621\/revisions\/8700"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8621"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8621"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/social.plymouth.k12.in.us\/perspective\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8621"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
