Grand Canyon RN-BSN

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

Is there any updated information? I have been in heavy contact with them and am looking at taking their RN-BSN program. I work with a GCU grad and she has nothing but positive things to say, but I want more opinions. ?

Any pro's and cons? Thankfully the only class I'm missing is stats and that is offered in the actual BSN program. I'm a bit nervous as my algebra skills are way old. If anyone took this class, do you have any advice?

I wouldn't recommend this. In fact, here is GCU's stance on self-plagiarism (see #3):

Google "submitting previous work considered plagiarism" and read the miscellaneous articles that pop up. It may have flown under the radar because ppts don't go through TII, but still, why chance it?

I had enough common sense to reword it......lot easier rewording things than all new material.

And what I do for my powerpoint is I do it on a MS Word document(then I make my PPT)....and then submit that word document to Turnititn..thus I have proof it is original and my work...

Oh Rob thanks so much!!

Here is a link to some discussion about this class. Around here about everyone chimes in on this class and gives feedback...

I wouldn't say it happens often. But, I would not stress too much about it - you will get a new adviser, and most of them are helpful :)

I am on my third student advisor. All of them have been great and willing to help with my schedule changes when needed.

Im on my 3rd one....not sure she should be called an "adviser" as she has not advised me on anything...I have asked her questions..nothing,lol Only thing she has done is change profs

I went through three, after my first one left it just wasn't the same, she was the best!!! Next one I didn't like at all, I think they fired him. My last one was getting on the annoying side at the end, calling me every week to see how I was doing. I'm paid, in the class I want to be in....leave me alone. =)

I really haven't had this experience, although my advisor calls me one week before each new class to see how I am doing. She is nice, helpful when I need to take a break or change classes but other than that I have not needed anything else from her.

lol--my adviser send out an email about a week before class start...the funny thing is she stated she tried to call.....not sure how thats possible as I dont have any missed calls,lol But i really don't need them contacting me!!

So I am trying to get started on my next class which is spirituality. Opened the class and found out I have an instructor that is on the do not get list with a additional note saying at all costs next to it. Then I decided to start the reading while I wait to call my advisor to switch classes and find that I do not have the required E-Book in Vital Source Bookshelf. What????? I have such a busy week next week and I can't even get my discussion posts completed early......

Rob, there isn't a book, or at least there was not for me. I used an online Bible.

Let me know who the prof is. I wonder if it was mine.
