NRSE 414 Cultural Diversity

KOUStudent · May 12, 2012

Ugh, I procrastinated way to much this week. Anyways, I have the stupid genogram drawn, had my colors and erased the entire freaking thing on accident. Luckily I had saved it prior to coloring it in, so I didn't loose it. Anyways, I can't figure out how to actually label the circles and squares. Following the instructions to create it, it had me do it in a drawing canvas, but it won't let me type in it. Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong?

When I took the class, I didn't label the shapes, I used the key to identify the shapes and colors.

Should I do a different color for the paternal and maternal side?

I did not add a key . Did the website say to do that??? I used different colors for each nationality.....Irish- green, Italian-red, siblings and I both colors. My first sentence listed the 2 backgrounds.....that's all.

Really tired of working with the genogram, I thought I knew word pretty well but I actually had to google how to put the first page in landscape format and the rest in portrait, and I will probabally get dinged for that. Going to upload this and get it over with. On an interesting note I discovered that I am a first generation american, who knew?

i didn't have a key either. my shapes were color coded and i just wrote inside of the shapes and indicated in the shapes if the person was first generation..

question #1 is how i addressed what the colors meant: [color=#333333]the color red in my genome represents..... the color blue represents...... the color purple represents......

i provided no references, and kept my responses to the questions short and simple.

One week down. Yeah!

That was a lot of busy work. This is only the second class for me, but it seems like they over do the first week with busy work.

Please let the rest be easier.

2 pages not including the genogram itself.

Oh no! Mine was way longer. I left the questions in and just answered them one by one.

Mine was like 8 pages that way. We will have to see how she grades.

I hand drew my genogram and added a key then scanned into Word. Took me 15 minutes max. I had one color to represent that my family tree goes back many, many generations in America with zero diversity. I wrote my paper in paragraph style and referenced the web site only. I also looked at my OU Family nursing class textbook because there is a chapter that goes into great detail about genograms. I did not use the level of detail shown in the book. But it made a nice guide and had example of the key.
