So today was my 2nd lecture. It's weird how my whole mood changes the moment that pencil is on my notebook. (Yes I use pencil because I like to erase) My instructor is amazing.
What I find annoying is when the classmate start to get side track by asking questions. Some are really interesting but then it gets personal or it gets to be opinions or commentse than having questions. It starts to have this ripple effect and then all these hands go up and we get off track for a good 20 mins. I'm not saying they are stupid questions. I feel like some people should hold off their questions (or comments) at the end of class on their own time. Because I feel as if that 20 mins was taken away from me. Then I start to notice my instructor starts to talk super fast because she is trying to catch up with the time. In which it gets hard for me to take ntotes because she says it so fast.
Today I learned about Nursing diagnosis Assessment, diagnosis, plan of care, implementing, and evaluation (lol i can't believe I remember that tbh)
We had a case study and list examples of subjective and objective data
We also saw a video that showed us how we are suppose to talk to a patient that has anxiety/ stress. That was very interesting.

Yup, same here. Only our side-tracks last up to 40 minutes (but who's counting ). And are not too off-topic or boring. Today I (and a lot of others around me) was/were freaking out because there's a test scheduled on Friday (tomorrow)! Then in the last 45 minutes she tells us the test will be pushed to monday... Ahhhh, good, but it would've been nice to know that before the anxiety! Now that I know there is some "cushion" built into the schedule it'll be easier to enjoy the lecture.
Also, I am in a full-time (as in, one classroom from 8-2:30 every weekday) LPN program... and the teacher talks all day but isn't boring. She does an amazing job IMO. (extra credit if she reads this of course )
I'm starting my 2nd year in a couple weeks but remember being so frustrated with this same thing at the beginning. There was this one individual who never stopped raising his hand and he didn't always ask questions, just had comments not even vaguely related to our material. The instructors were patient to a point but would finally be like ok that's enough we have to move on. Unfortunately for him, fortunately for the rest of us, he failed mid 2nd quarter. It hasn't been that bad since. Good luck!
