    nlitened replied to Dd04321's topic in General Students

    We were usually in groups of 4-5 for SIMS lab. Our lab instructor always told us to put our brains together to help the patient and come up with answers. She also stressed that SIMS lab is the time to...

  5. Nursing instructor doesn't allow open textbooks during lecture !??!

    nlitened replied to LVNlivin's topic in General Students

    The only things we were allowed to have in lecture were a pen and paper. No books, no power points. It made us pay attention and write notes. I don't see how that is a bad
