NURS 4325 Research Start Date 5/20/2013

I am in a group of 6 in the W's. We have chosen a group leader. There are suggestions for all of us to answer the first 5 questions. My suggestion is to divide and conquer...Anyone else in this boat? I would rather answer one or two questions vs all 5....

Divide & Conquer is logical to me as well but the problem is that you don't know who is a good writer or bad. I wouldn't want all my points dinged from one section cuz this one member sucks...ya know?? Group work online kinda blows....

I am in a mixed group with no one doing anything so I said I would spearhead the group. I've asked for name suggestions. We are each going to answer all five questions, then assimilate and submit. We are graded on our participation, so I thought the best for all to respond to each section.[/quote']
I think this is a good strategy. I think I will suggest this for my group as well.

I liked the strategy for everyone to do all 5, as well, but that isn't going to work in my group due to time constraints. It's getting late in the week, and up until this tonight, I was the only one posting. And, there is one person who still hasn't checked in yet. Whoa, this is going to be a long 5 weeks.

I agree, the questions are lengthy. The best option is to divide the work. You are graded on your participation and the work you submit. Given the length of everything that has to be submitted and the time, this is the best option.

Does anyone know how to open the OOH? I think I need a file extension for JNLP but don't want to download something off the internet for this that might give me a computer virus. I heard the OOH is really helpful.

The AC stated they will post the OOHS recording soon for people to listen. It was helping but kind of fast paced so Im glad we get to listen to it again and again. I am still trying to wrap my head around the whole work. Very overwhelming

I agree! Its taking me forever to answer one part...cant imagine answering all 5

I'm glad I listened to at least part of the OOH. She really outlined the answers for question 1...not sure if she did the same for the other questions. I need to go back and listen to the rest of the recording when it is posted. It made my part of the assignment MUCH easier!

OK my turn to vent. UGH! My group seems to be good, I'll be happy with a C in this class though.

hi mom3boys,

i feel the same way about downloading stuff. i have a 2nd computer that i don't use for school and i downloaded Java on that one.

It's already available. Go onto the purple OOH icon and when it opens, hit "recording" and you can get it that way. i listened tonight and got a lot of helpful info for this first critique.

My group? not so good... no group leader and only one person has posted her work. Who, you ask? Moi. no one else. and now it's thurs texas time. :no:

oh, and in the OOH today....the Prof said people don't get A's in this class. so we shouldn't expect one. sweet.
