    Gerontology....Who has or is taking this class soon???

    Actually, I put the names of the producers in my citation, but the TA said the correct citation should have been like this (I forget the writer/producer names, so I'm making some up): Smith, A.B....

    Yeah, I cited the movie correctly, but apparently the TA read too quickly and thought it was a book, so she thought I "missed" the page number in my citation. I did get a bit taken off for one other...

    Gerontology....Who has or is taking this class soon???

    Gerontology....Who has or is taking this class soon???

    I know; I wish they'd post some grades already! I hate when they dawdle, because then it's hard to adjust for next week's assignments. I don't quite know how to study for the quiz...I mean, I will...

    Real or Fake friendly smile.

    In reference to Ruby's comment, I agree that it is easy for new nurses to come across as defensive (I speak from experience...or should I say inexperience). The problem is that we want so badly to...

    OU Online RN to BSN, Legal/Ethical Issues

    I feel your pain on the APA stuff, guys. But for what it's worth, in the Transitions class, I got dinged on a lot of APA formatting. However, I went exactly by the examples given in the APA handbook,...
