Nursing. discussion: using competency sets to critique lesson plans
Nursing. Discussion: Using Competency Sets to Critique Lesson Plans
Graduate nursing education advances innovation and strengthens the leadership needed to improve healthcare delivery. Education at this level incorporates the foundational knowledge, skills, and competencies needed to thrive in increasingly complex clinical environments. Nursing education is undergoing major change as the profession conceptualizes masters education and transitions advanced practice education to the doctoral level via Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs. Calls to reduce healthcare costs, persistent concerns about patient safety and the quality of care, and dramatic increases in diagnostic, therapeutic, and educational technologies all demand new thinking around the nature of graduate nursing education.
American Association of Colleges in Nursing
Though the above quote focuses specifically on graduate nursing education, Schools of Nursing around the United States are adapting both undergraduate and graduate programs to emphasize a stronger focus on evidence-based nursing competencies. At the departmental level, this process takes much time and collaboration. Curriculum teams comprised of nurse educators, field experts, and instructional design professionals meet with schools of nursing to revamp existing curriculum plans to the competencies needed of todays and tomorrows nursing students.
On a smaller scale, nurse educators are also implementing quick and effective strategies to align their current courses to evolving nursing competencies. By critiquing lessons before, during, and after instruction, nurse educators are able to assess their alignment to competency sets.
In this Discussion, you critique one of your own Lesson Plans to a competency set of your choosing.
To prepare
Review the article, Integrating the Institute of Medicine Competencies in a Baccalaureate Curricular Revision: Process and Strategies. Consider how and why the nursing program adapted its curriculum to emphasize Institute of Medicine competencies.
Review the competencies presented in this weeks Learning Resources. In addition, reflect on the competencies that you might be familiar with through your own studies and professional background. How do competencies help to guide academic and professional practice?
Review the Lesson Plans that you have developed in this course. Select one to further investigate for this Discussion.
Critique your lesson using a competency set. For example, if your Lesson Plan addresses interprofessional collaboration and your intended audience of learners is Masters students, you might critique your Lesson Plan using QSEN indicators. As you conduct your critique, identify specific competencies addressed in your lesson. Then, consider ways that you might modify your lesson to prompt a deeper understanding of nursing competencies.
Questions to be addressed in my paper:
1. A brief description of your lesson (Pulmonary Edema) and the competency set (patient-centered care, evidence-based practice and quality improvement) that you selected.
2. Explain how your lesson engaged learners in one or more competencies.
3. Explain whether your lesson should be modified to include a deeper understanding of these competencies and why.
4. Support your response by including references to your lesson, your own experiences, and this weeks Learning Resources.
Reminders:
1. At least 2 pages
2. Put citation and references 2011-2016.
3. Check my uploaded pulmonary edema lesson plan.

SU Solid Waste Audit Worksheet
This week we are learning about what happens to our solid waste. We are very much a consumer driven society and we make a LOT of waste in our daily lives! For the discussion this week I want everyone to do a 24 hour waste audit. You can download this sheet to keep track of what you consume for a 24 hours period and what will happen to the waste that you generate doing what you do during that time. You don’t need to use the sheet, but it’s a good guide to help you think through what you are using, writing some notes about your waste on scrap paper or tracking it in a note on your phone is fine too. The sheet was originally created for an event in 2018, but it will work fine for us to use as we examine our own practices today.For your initial post, lets look at recycling.After you’ve completed your waste audit you can post the results either as a part of your initial post (if you see the instructions in time for that) or you can comment on your own post with some conclusions based on your audit. Things to think about after your audit:Also respond to the following peer posts:BRANDON-Recycling, in general, is good for the environment. It is a first step in reducing our own carbon footprint and taking a step forward in environmental awareness. Recycling reduces the amount of plastic in our environment and provides a chance for these items to be reused. Recycling also has its drawbacks as there are so many different types of plastic that it can be hard to sort through and some ends up thrown out anyway being put back into the environment and not properly disposed of. We, as a society, are making recycling options easier than ever. Many parks and outdoor recreation locations have cans to recycle plastic and other items that can be recycled rather than thrown away. Townships and other locations are offering proper disposal of toxic products such as motor oil, anti freeze and paint. These changes make it easier to properly dispose of hazards materials so these chemicals do not get back into the environment.After the 24 hour waste audit I was surprised at the amount of trash we produce as a family. I have a young child who is still in diapers and that alone adds to the amount of waste we produce. On top of that we always pack our lunch and use sandwich bags and plastic silverware. We also go through milk and juice containers quite frequently as well. The waste I can eliminate the easiest is the use of plastic silverware and sandwich bags. I can replace these items with plastic containers to carry food and reusable utensils. The option for cloth diaper is there but it would be hard to use with my lifestyle. Instead of buying water bottles I could get a refillable one to use through the day instead of plastic ones I just throw away. I will make more of a conscious effort to recycle more plastic bottles and containers instead of throwing them away.HANNAH-Yes and no, recycling is good for the environment. There are many different materials that must be separated. According to the PowerPoint in the resource folder. Recycling can help limit the landfills and dump sites a country can have. We can use recyclable waste to create fertilizer for plants to grow. This could create a cycle where instead of using a lot of the earth’s resources for a limited time, we could reuse them and give them longer time spam in usage. Something we could do to start the switch is to limit plastic and paper. For example, in the PowerPoint, Denmark has switched to 97% paper recycling. The plastic can be switched to reusable bottles and containers that are eco-friendly.The bad part of recycling is that there will never be enough resources because of the rate we consume them or the people who will follow them. The majority of the waste at landfills could be recycled but people dont. The bad side is there are toxic materials that cant get mixed into or recycled. if we burn them and the waste, it just goes into the air we breathe. If we switched to a sanitary landfill, where everything is sorted and packed into clay and didnt destroy the soil, then it could potentially help the environment.It is very easy to recycle. color coding helps to let a person know what should go where. The big cities have many areas to dump recycling into the recycling center. I think if we added more recycling places in rural areas and taught secondary schools more about how important it is to recycle than we could make changes.In conclusion, Recycling is good for the environment. However, stopping the US from consuming more than European countries would be also very good for the environment.For 24 hours I didn’t waste a lot. In Colombia, everything is very recyclable friendly. I bought a water bottle that I reuse for water all day and week. The food made for us is served on banana leaves and during 24 hours the only thing I did waste was a candy bar wrapper. Most of the food we also get from the garden on site so we don’t use a lot of storage or bags. The are a lot of things I do reuse and then recycle. For instance, the banana peels and apple stems, are then put into recycling where the locals make them into fertilizer.After 24 hours of watching what I waste, I was very surprised at how little I throw away in Colombia compared to life in the US. I think if I was in the US the waste would be much higher than what I had shared. When I live in the US, I can remember every other hour of throwing stuff away, from food to drinkable water ( stuff we take advantage of).SHANNON-For your initial post, lets look at recycling.I have been in Arizona for the last few days and for some reason the need for conservation and recycling here is more obvious to me. It is apparent that the Phoenix Valley is not meant to house so many people. Due to the heat and need to stay hydrated while out and about, I hate to admit it, but we have used so much more plastic by way of water bottles since being here. Having a water bottle is helpful of course, but when you need a refill, it typically requires purchasing a bottle of water due to lack of free flow water. But, we have tried to utilize water fountains where available.Having recycling bins located in regular intervals in high travel areas would be helpful – but as we are all aware, sometimes even getting people to use standard garbage cans can be a challenge.
Locke | English homework help
RESPOND to each post150 words EACH
POST ONE
As a result of having a different perspective than Thomas Hobbes and the state of nature, John Locke also views the need for enacting a social contract differently. Locke did not see humans as warring in a state of nature as Hobbes had. Instead, Lockes state of nature could be explained as a perfect place where people had the freedom to choose their own paths in life so long as it did not infringe upon others.
Locke viewed people as being kind toward one another as a result of the Law of Nature, which was a result of virtues from God. Under the Law of Nature, people were equal and would be treated as such because of their morals stemming from their belief in God. By the same token, Locke acknowledged that having liberty in the state of nature was not synonymous with a license to do what we pleased, as, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions
(Locke, section 6). Only when a man has done something wrong can another man have power over him in the state of nature and this power cannot be used excessively, and only using calm reason and conscience (Locke, section 8)
Locke also understood the need for private property for men. Private property was the combining of a person using his (her) own labor along with the natural resources in nature to produce something. When a person used their abilities to produce something, they should have the right to that final product. However, a person could not claim more than what should be considered their own fair share. In other words, owning excessive private property would now breach the Law of Nature. Because of the desire for private property and the want to maintain it, men would give up the freedom of the state of nature, relying upon a government for protection.
To me, Lockes state of nature is more in line with my own thinking. People are not naturally evil and warring, but instead more virtuous, whether stemming from beliefs in God, their own upbringing, or just naturally moral. As a result, the only need for people to enter into a social contract is to settle disputes and not for self preservation as Hobbes suggested.
Although I accept (interpret?) the notions of a state of nature from both Locke and Hobbes as theoretical, Lockes description seems closer to what I understand as reality. His description of the importance of property is not only unique from Hobbes, but also makes sense. People like their things and do not want them taken away. This seems very natural in society today. Lockes views were instrumental not only in our re-establishment of the state of nature when the American colonists declared their independence, but was also instrumental in the writing of the Bill of Rights.
POST TWO
Locke view of the state of nature is that mankind is a state of perfect and complete liberty to conduct ones life as one best sees fit, free from the interference of others (iep.utm.edu). In other words people are born free to do as they please, as long as they follow moral laws conduct themselves in manner not causing harm to others. Locke saw man as being equal to one another, having the right to defend themselves from their aggressor.
The reason Locke saw property as a natural right is because, a person who works for a living builds creates products from the earth of their own doing is the rightful owner of the particular land. Because they took advantage of all the resources God had made available to them. But Locke also emphasized that a person should not take more than they needed one is not allowed to take more from nature than one can use, thereby leaving others without enough for themselves ((iep.utm.edu). With property being a natural right Lockes view of the state of nature all but guarantees one freedom from any sort of oppression, if man are able to defend themselves, own their property, live in peace surely can live as one sees fit.
Lockes Hobbes differ greatly on their version of state of nature, Locke believed that people should have the right to do as they pleased with absolute liberty as long as they obey moral standings. Being a Philosopher in a time of civil war in the 17th centruy England were the Monarchy was eventually dispose, gave Locke his very liberal ideas. As for Hobbes his version of state of nature is, those in civil society should submit themselves to political authority such as King or a one party system in either case both have completed authority over everyone property. In my opinion I think Hobbes believe that mankind cannot make wise decision, thus leave it to an absolute authority to make those decisions. These two Locke Hobbes are different as night day mainly because of the times of each one of their ideas came to be, the same is the case for their version of a social contract same formula but very different implementation.
POST THREE
Locke was a social contract theorist. Locke believed that man was meant for civil society and that the latter must impose limitations on citizens if individual rights are to be protected. (APUS)Lockes social contract comes in two stages: a social and a political contract. The first stage is there to make sure a civil society is formed and the second stage ensures that there is a common political authority in order to protect their property.
A contract is needed in order for there to be some sort of following in society of what not to do and what to do. In Lockes social contract he talks about Civil Society.
He reasons that men contract and put themselves into civil society to avoid the inconveniences of the state of nature , which pose a perpetually looming threat of a state of war, and ultimately to protect property in person and land. (APUS) The civil society differs tremendously from Sovereignty, the only purpose that the government has dealing with the civil society is that they protect citizens property. Men in civil society give up their natural freedom to gain protection of the laws. The Sovereignty is much different, For Locke the Sovereign is the law which is fair and equally applied to all equally. (APUS) In a popular sovereignty the government has limited power and not all your rights are turned over to the government. The Sovereign is ruled by consent of the people and to be ruled by the majority. Basically there is a leader that is put into that position and he represents the Majority. With Lockes view on it the people form together and put together their view and go against the ruler if need be. With popular sovereignty not all rights are turned over to the government. The relationship between limited government and the citizen is a reciprocal one. (APUS) I think that this type of sovereignty is directed towards all citizens that feel that their voice or opinion should be heard as long as they abide by the laws of their state.
There are many differences between Locke and Hobbes. Locke looks at things as looking out for the people. Hobbes thought that there should be more of a monarch style ruling where what the ruler says goes and all your rights are turned over to the government. Men cannot know good and evil, and in consequence can only live in peace together by subjection to the absolute power of a common master, and therefore there can be no peace between kings. (Jim.Com) Hobbes basically meant that there had to be one master ruler and that the people of society could not get along because they did not know how to act. Locke focused on individual rights and that people should be able to think for themselves. Locke believes that property is the ultimate basis for the terms of his social contract. While political power enables the state to make laws that bind the whole society in support pf the public good, the state must have limited powers so that it does not threaten the very basic rights of freedom it is supposed to protect. (APUS)
SNHU Urban Apartheid Rise & Decline Historical Lenses Discussion
Discussion: Historical Lenses In this discussion, you will consider how historical lenses can affect the study of a historical topic. Select one of the secondary source articles from your research. After reading that article, write a discussion post about which of the following lenses you believe the article is using: social, political, economic, or other. Use at least two quotes from your source to justify your choice of lens. Your post title should also indicate which topic you have selected. As you have discovered in earlier learning blocks, historians not only ponder what happened regarding historical events, but also why those events happened. Why is difficult to prove, however, and historians often differ on the connections between events. Historians approach topics from different perspectives. These different perspectives can be said to be the result of looking at a topic through different lenses. Just like colored lenses or prescription lenses can change the way a person views the world, historical lenses can change the way a historian views a topic. While a historian may choose any number of lenses, they fall into three basic categories: social lenses, political lenses, and economic lenses. In good historical writing, these lenses will overlap.Often, the choice of a primary lens will simply reflect the historians personal interests or priorities. A historian who is interested in military strategy may not be interested in technological innovations except for those with battlefield applications. A historian who is interested in environmental history may not be interested in business practices except for when those practices affect the natural landscape. As these examples show, however, one can rarely use a lens in isolation. Most research projects will employ multiple lenses in order to tell more complete stories. It is useful to study the different types of lenses to be able to recognize the different perspectives and priorities that historians bring to a topic.While there are any number of lenses a historian may choose, they fall into three basic categories: social lenses, political lenses, and economic lenses.Social Lens: This lens focuses on people and their interactions with others. It explores areas of ethnicity, class, and gender. Examining the actions and behaviors of how different groups of people interact with each otherand within their own groupprovides historians with a great deal of insight into the past.This is perhaps the widest and most all-encompassing of the three categories of lenses. Through it, historians have examined all manner of interactionincluding German immigrants adjusting to their new home in nineteenth-century United States, class disputes within African American womens clubs in the twentieth century, and disagreement among different churches about whether or not to support the gay rights movement. The social lens includes the elite as well as the working class, the rich and the poor, and men, women, and children. It seeks, as do the other lenses, to answer the questions of who were these people, how did they think and what did they think about, and how did their thinking drive their actions and behaviors.Political Lens: Not focusing solely on politicians and governments, the political lens looks at the relationship of those who have power and those who do not. Historians using a political lens seek answers about the ways in which legislation and law influence the lives of individuals. How do individuals (and groups of individuals) react and respond to these? What methods do they employ to create and/or change the rules under which they live?Political history can be as simple as the recounting of organizing a community to repeal an unpopular law, or as complex as the behind-the-scenes interactions that propelled an individual to the presidency. It can examine the treaties that ended World War I, or explore the gerrymandering of congressional districts to maintain one partys political control of Congress.Economic Lens: This lens focuses on the local, national, or international economy, all of which are central to the lives of every living person. While it conjures images of corporations and economic systems, the economic lens also focuses on government regulation of businesses, the relationships between capital and labor, business strategies such as marketing or horizontal integration, and the relationships between business and consumers.Historians use the economic lens in a number of different ways. Often, it is used to explore the growth and development of labor unions, the effect of the loss of small businesses on a community, or the havoc wrought upon farmers by price changes in the international agricultural and commodities markets. It can also be used to examine the effect of redlining on suburbs and ethnic neighborhoods, or even the effect of the Industrial Revolution on artisans and craftsmen. Economic history can provide insight into the wage differences between men and womenand the effect they have on the development of family wealth and status.Other Lenses: Falling somewhere in between these three broad categories, or perhaps overlapping one or more of them, are other lenses available to historians. Each of these lenses helps clarify a specific area of the human past: the environment, the military, science and technology, and so forth.This brief list is in no way completethere are about as many lenses as there are people and events. Focusing first on a broad category and then narrowing the lens helps historians focus their research. Once a historian has identified a question to be resolved, he or she researches in primary sources and the secondary literature to determine which lens will best help answer the research question.
