NURS 4325 Research Start Date 5/20/2013

Published

I am hoping others will join this thread and we will be as successful as in previous classes. Relax with our well earned week off. See you on May 20th.

How did your groups do for week one grades?

We shockingly did really well. I suggest that you all reiterate to ur groups to use the OOH as a cheat sheet, cuz it honestly gives you all the answers man. My group is a little high strung, over 60-70 postings on DB, i cant keep up with it all!!!!

Is the OOH ever on time?! 1014am CST and im waiting.....

Is the grade out of ?/77 if so, we are not doing to well. Which is a bit surprising considering the amount of post and the overall length of all our responses to the week 1 assignment. Very Confused!

No our grade for week 1 is out of 32 total points.

This whole class is confusing. Still don't have a confident grasp on the work. And it's so disjointed.

Do you have an idea what the search strategy is all about? Do we find an article first and then based on that fill out the search strategy template or vice versa? How do we even find an article if we fill out the template first??? It's like a shot in the dark!

My understanding of this assignment is to have a search strategy help guide us to an article. The downfall is actually finding a Quantitative research article that meets the requirements. We had some great suggestions for JC, but many (including myself) are having a difficult time finding articles(it can't be a review, systematic, qualitative, meta-analysis or outcome study and must be current. That is the difficult part. Filling out the template for a search strategy does not take much time.

To figure out your grade from the ?/77:

1. Subtract 45 from 77...you'll get 32, which is how many points assignment #1 is worth.

2. Subtract whatever grade you got on the practice quiz from the ? (whatever that value is for you).

The answer is your current grade in the class.

But the practice was worth zero points I thought?

It is worth zero. It may listed in the gradebook as 45 points, but it does not count towards your final grade.

Just listened to OOH, it was not as helpful as last week but did some of the job. The echo throughout was rough. Hopefully tomorrow is better. I used the OOH & this weeks video to answer questions 6&7.

I totally didn't realize it's really online office hours. How does it work? Do they answer questions via chat? or the ones you type to them?

Yes. They basically help you find the answers for your homework. Its very informative. My group & I would be lost without it. When you are able to join a live session, you can chat with prof and she will answer your questions.
