  1. Why Do Nursing Instructors Rely So Heavily On PowerPoints To Teach?

    countryhick replied to SarahMaria's topic in General Students

    I so agree with you. Many students are reluctant to take responsibility for their own learning and blame anyone but themselves when they dont do well. These students are really difficult to help,...

  2. Why Do Nursing Instructors Rely So Heavily On PowerPoints To Teach?

    countryhick replied to SarahMaria's topic in General Students

    Actually, it is not our job. The instructor facilitates, but the student is responsible for the learning. Alarmingly, many students have the attitude that it is our job, and those students often do...

    countryhick replied to Otessa's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I have only taken the first one hour class. I start my first course, legal aspects of nursing, or something like that, in March. What did you think about that course? I like the cirriculum. It is...

    Hi, I am a nurse educator and am preparing to begin the program in March. Anything you could tell me would be appreciated. Thanks a million,

  6. Thesis or not

    countryhick replied to moonshadeau's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Im not sure I clarified myself. She is working on her PhD in nursing. The student is responsible for doing the actual research and work, but they may hire the statistics or numbers

  7. Thesis or not

    countryhick replied to moonshadeau's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Another thought: My friend is working on her doctorate and they are telling them to hire someone to put together the research. They said that professionals hire it

  8. Thesis or not

    countryhick replied to moonshadeau's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I agree that extensive research doesnt seem to fit into a masters program. I agree that we should be able to find and interpret relevant research, but as far as doing it, no. I believe a project or...

  9. ON-line NP programs

    countryhick replied to NHRNmomof3's topic in Post Graduate Students

    It is Indiana State University at Terre Haute; that should bring it up for you in a search engine; if it dose not, let me

  12. graduate school for nurses

    countryhick replied to krisssy's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am only taking one course at a time as well. I am torn between education and FNP tracts. I am presently teaching in a junior college, so I know I love teaching, but believe I would like the FNP as...

  13. Singer/Actor/Athlete Pay vs. NP Pay

    countryhick replied to andrew39's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I agree with many of your points. It only takes one wrong "lift" to alter a nurses career as well. In many cases, our back is our earning potential, especially for nurses who choose to remain at...

  14. Singer/Actor/Athlete Pay vs. NP Pay

    countryhick replied to andrew39's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I dont see why not. The state of Missouri just requires a masters in nursing. It doesnt specify what area of nursing. I would think a CRNA would be very qualified to teach in a nursing

  15. graduate school for nurses

    countryhick replied to krisssy's topic in Post Graduate Students

  18. Singer/Actor/Athlete Pay vs. NP Pay

    countryhick replied to andrew39's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It says what we value as a country. Sports heros are valued more than nurses and doctors who can save your life. I work in a college nursing program and the sports programs get more press/money than...

  19. nursing shortage? nursing schools full?

    countryhick replied to katie12345's topic in General Nursing

    yes, that is a good point. The students are mostly the ones who didn't make it in the other program. We will have to wait and see how they fare and if it affects our NCLEX pass rate. keep you...

    countryhick replied to jaimealmostRN's topic in Psychiatric

    yes, i take it right before bedtime and in about 30-45 minutes, wake up drenched with sweat. It seems like what a hot flash would be like. initially, I would experience ''waves" of nausea, but that...
