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 have an excellent teacher, one that I have had in the past. She not only writes new stuff in her posts, but actually gives real feedback in her comments on corrected assignments. But here is a question to the instructor: Week 3's assignment which covers reflection of the IOMs point 4, 5, & 6 and someone asks if they need to just do one of the points or all???? This is a basic assignment which states explain how you fit into point 4, 5, yadayadayada, no hidden anything. Sigh....

Drama.drama.drama every day in the CLC, I would be happy to make it to week 5 to have that done, but oh yeah week 5 I start week 1 of Cap! Eeeek!!!

What is making me happy today....48 days and counting!

Typical nurse drama even at Gcu..smh

I am in pathophys doing the CLC project. there is two parts for this assignment, a essay and a dialog. Has any of you guys done that class already? I am confused on the dialog part. How long it has to be? do i just write like I am talking to the patient explaining her condition and providing teaching just like a discharge planning?

I wrote ours like a play:

Nurse Nancy: Sallie Mae, I see your pupils are pin point your speech is slurred. Did you empty your bottle of Percocet again?

Sallie Mae: I need dilaudid, nurse...I'm in sooo much pain (slumps over onto couch).

We got dinged for not enough give and take during the conversation, so make sure Sallie interjects often

Help! I took an almost 6 month leave and I forget how to access my books online! I've got a paper copy of the previous edition that I've been using, but wanted to do a search. I'm downloading the book onto my comp now, but can't figure out where to go online to access. Elsevier? I can't believe I forget!

Fixed my Sallie Mae post. I can't be a smart a** and have a typo. ;)

Anyway, that was a painful project to do. It seemed simple but it had a lot of information that needed to be addressed.

Anyone remember week 4 Excel assignment in Stats? Had a question if you do.

It states "Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that women in the different age categories have different mean blood pressure levels? Give reasons for your decision."

In the boxes below they want the Statistical and Experimental conclusion. Is that all they are looking for because this would represent the results both statistically and experimentally? Seems like they might want more but can't figure out what. The assignment is just too easy, produce an ANOVA table and answer the Statistical and Experimental conclusions....... That would adequately answer the above question...

Different assignment than you, that is the one class that they change the assignments with each class.

Okay so I had to have a heart attack last night just before I uploaded my assignment, almost late. I'm trying to do Writecheck, fixes, going to go check classroom while waiting for results...find out I'm out of my Capstone class (freaking). Then find out I've been marked down on my last assignment for my conclusion (being in the body of the paper - no heading???). Did not change current paper before upload because was told by tutor it was done right (have been marked down in past for having "Conclusion" as a heading)! I am NEVER going to figure out APA if every teacher has a different interpretation, I am so upset, disgusted, and confused. I have no idea anymore!!! Rant mostly over, at least here. The good thing today, well two things. Got back into MY capstone class (don't mess with me people), and it is 42 days and counting.
