  1. Music Appreciation At WOSC

    I kind of regret taking this class now, but I will try my best to not flunk it. No announcement, no study guide for that many quizzes. There is even a comprehensive final! First quiz covers 10...
  2. Music Appreciation At WOSC

    Me too. Has anyone read the syllabus yet? There are 5 timed quizzes and 1 comprehensive. It doesn't tell how many questions in each quiz or the weight percentage. I don't see any study guide for the...

    I can't agree with you

    1 FTE works 40h/week. If one person works 32h/week, that's 0.8 FTE, 24h/week is 0.6 FTE, etc. So if you have 40 FTEs for a 24h period, you could have 40 people only if they are all 1.0 FTE working...
  5. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    My TA says in the announcement that we can do either 12h or 8h. Plus, I think the table just shows an example of the skill mix, and it has nothing to do with Box 28.1. Those numbers are irrelevant....

    I see what you are saying. But this doesn't affect us doing our

    I wish I could show my work, which would explain better. But I know I can't. We will see how we do when the grades come back next
  8. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    I don't think they care. The TA are so stringy with words. Their replies are usually a few words. It sounds like either they don't want to talk or they don't know how to talk. I'm reading week 5...

    Box 28.1 is the one you use to CALCULATE the number of staff. Table 28.1 just gives you an example how to do skill mix, and it has nothing to do with calculating FTE stuff. If you totally understand...
  10. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    There is no pt/nurse ratio considered in this calculation. That's why you calculate number of staff based on FTEs. By this calculation, technically, one nurse could take as many pts as required by the...
  11. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    I agree with you. I spent so much time trying to understand the meanings of the concept and what the questions are really asking for. After a few days of struggling, I think now I get it. I assume I...
  12. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    But there should be only one correct answer for each calculation. Even if the TAs don't know how to do it, they have the answers. I am afraid we will still be dinged for the wrong answer(s). It's very...
  13. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    I personally feel the textbook doesn't provide adequate information for those who had no FTE knowledge previously. I struggled at the beginning. I googled "nursing FTE calculation", and it helped me...
  14. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    I understand what you mean. The FTEs do not mean the persons per day or per
  15. Roll Call 4580 Leadership, Starting 3/25/13

    Mine is opposite. I'm not sure if I'm correct or not either. But think about this, the census number is based on the census, and the variable is based on the unit beds, so variable should be higher...

    I hear you. I think the textbook is not giving adequate information about the formula. We might have to do some research to totally understand

    Lucky you! I never got any grade back this early. I would expect my grades to be back in a few days based on last week's
