Module 4-Priority Setting Frameworks

Module 4-Priority Setting Frameworks

Comments 0 Comment

I appreciated this nurse logic module about priority setting frameworks. As a nursing student right now, I use these frameworks in order to answer questions, however I know that as I take the NCLEX exam and move into the real world, I will use these frameworks as well. The three frameworks that I consistently use during testing and in class are the ABC (Airway, breathing and circulation) framework, Maslow’s hierarchy of needs framework as well as the nursing process. The…

After completing the third module about knowledge and clinical judgement I learned a lot about my learning style. I have learned about learning styles in the past and I always thought I was just a visual learner. However, after completing the module and especially after the first couple of weeks in nursing labs and clinical, I have noticed that I am definitely a mixture of a visual as well as a tactile learner. I have found that I learn best…

Module 2- Nursing Concepts

The second module in ATI was about nursing concepts. The one that stood out to me most was client-centered care. The client and their beliefs should be what the care-giver bases their care and the way they approach, talk to and care for the patient. Another nursing concept, which I experience being a CNA, is interdisciplinary collaboration. This is the healthcare team working together for the better of the patient. This includes CNA’s, Nurses, Doctors, Family members and most importantly…

Completing this module opened my eyes to the amount of testing strategies there are available for me to use when taking exams. Typically, when I test, I tend to write a check mark next to questions that I 100% know the answer to, a Dash (“-“) next to questions that I know but there is another answer that could also be right, and a circle (“0”) next to questions that I have no idea and am completely guessing the answer….

I thought your paper was very well written, I really loved the quotes that you used, and I also thought that you made a lot of unique points in your essay that I had not heard of before. I did think that it would be beneficial if you added a little more personal experiences to your essay. I feel like it would really benefit your writing and allow you to connect with your reader more. For example, you could use…

For my post I decided to read chapter 5 in “They Say/I Say” By Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein. This chapter is titles”And Yet: Distinguish what you say from what they say” and it explains the best methods to make sure that the reader understands the difference between your words and someone else’s words. It provides templates that can be used to distinguish the difference such as “Although X makes the best possible case for _______, I am not persuaded”…

I always appreciate peer reviews because they provide edits that I wouldn’t be able to catch on my own. I think my largest issue in this free write was thinking of claim sentences. My goal for my final paper is to have engaging and interesting claim sentences for each paragraph and have it flow nicely. I also feel that I need to include more quotes from other sources in order to back up my argument. In order for this to…
