NR451 RN Capstone Course Term and Year After Giving Birth Even though postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of mortality after giving birth, most health care facilities do not have a standardized measures to assess blood volume loss and rely only on visual estimations for assessing and documenting blood loss. Consequently, blood loss below 250 mL tends to be overestimated, whereas blood loss above 2,000 mL tends to be underestimated (Bamberg et al., 2015). Inaccurate diagnosis of PPH delays treatment and increases mortality risk among intrapartum and postpartum women, so the purpose of the proposed nursing plan ...

Therefore, there is need to incorporate different learning and teaching styles in class to move students from their learning comfort zones. Applying different learning and teaching styles will help students learn well since one will be able to use the style they prefer and that makes them understand and grasp the concept well. For example in nursing class, flashcards and worksheets will work best for students who absorb the information visually (Gaberson, Oerman & Shellenbarger, 2015).

Research has been able to show that the environment that an individual is in when during his or her school years plays a very important role in how he or she ends up. By environment I do not mean the buildings and the comfortable seats, but I mean the individuals who are around the student. As an educator, I will try everything in my power to be able to be that teacher they are free and feel safe around. This does not mean that I will allow them to behave recklessly and unethically, but rather be the one to ...

First of all, it is not yet clear if Joe’s problem is a behavioral problem, academic issue, or the mixture of both. Secondly, the educators do not have the baseline information that would provide evidence about ...

Critical understanding of selected key concepts and theories related to core areas of academic practice.

There are many different approaches to designing educational courses, and the use of online technologies offers more flexibility in this area than ever before. There needs to be a strong link between educational intentions and the course content, of course, but the material also needs to be presented in such a way that it is accessible to the individual and suits the learning style of the student and the teaching style of the educator (Morgan & Houton, 2011). One such theory that places the learner at the central point of his or her own education is the constructivist approach. This ...

The Catalyst for Becoming an Educator

Introduction Empowering and connecting with young, impressionable minds to enact positive change for this peer group is my focus as an imminent educator. I feel inspired to motivate a young population on a daily basis. Choosing to work with juveniles as my life’s calling was not an easy decision to make due to my shy personality. I realized from the onset that this characteristic represented a challenge that needed an effective solution if I wanted to guide adolescents. Nevertheless, I stepped out of my comfort zone by enhancing my communication and interpersonal skills. While it seems a daunting ...

Post your Philosophy of Adult Education Inventory (PAEI) scores and associated philosophy. 

I personally scored an 81 in liberal arts adult education, a 99 in behavioral adult education, a 105 in progressive adult education, an 87 in both humanistic adult education, and radical adult education. As a result, my personal educational philosophy is most closely aligned with behavioral and progressive adult education. As a behavioral educator, I should prefer to observe students through clear behaviors. The primary understanding of this philosophy is that "human actions are the result of prior conditioning and the way in which a person's external environment is arranged. Emotions, feelings, intellect and so on are the means ...

The book “Techniques and Principles in Language Teaching” by Diane Larsen-Freeman is devoted to different methods and approaches of language teaching which can be useful for teachers of foreign languages.

In order to present the book as a useful instrument in teaching, the author also provides a system of techniques which can be implemented in ...

Disruptive behaviors are conditions that can have a great influence in the teaching environment. Disruptive behaviors unswervingly hinder the ability of the teacher or the capability of a learner to benefit from their classroom experiences. Students attend schools with hopes of being productive citizens of society. I like to think of students as future leaders of tomorrow! For the most part, students attend school because it is the law. A learning environment should have actively engaged students, who are eager to participate and show knowledge is being acquired on a daily basis. However, some students are bored and disengaged ...

Assess The View That The Main Function Of The Education System Is To Reproduce And Legitimise Social Inequality

Marxist theories of education rely upon the notion that the education system systematically reproduces the social and cultural values that lead to the privileging of one social class over another. For Marxists, social inequality is the core of capitalism. As Anyon (2011, p. 7) suggests, capitalism is “an economic system based on private ownership of the means of production.” Moreover, capitalism cannot function unless these social inequalities exist. According to Marxism, the education system perpetuates these inequalities by creating a set of standards which do not have a neutral ideological formation. Regardless of geographic location and emphasis on cultural, ...

Long distance educators are usually faced with many challenges when it comes to them delivering their content to their students. The technological and logistical requirements required to complete the tasks that they are supposed to fulfill limit the extents that they can reach in making sure that they effectively deliver the content to their students (Du et al., 2014). From this realization, therefore, there is the need for having additional criteria for one to become a distance nurse educator. The first standard that should be developed in regards to the requirements of being a distance educator is the ability ...

Besides that, professionals in this field contribute their efforts to research and professional growth. While there is a lot of cliché ...

The past is buried by newer and more beautiful memories which overshadow our past. The present can cease to exist as a result of people’s social obligations, materials and their authority. People should focus on the present life events and people as well as newer ways of handling matters instead of dwelling on routines. Death is a devastating side of life that is inevitable, yet it helps us to appreciate the present life even more. Gabriel Conroy, the husband of Gretta in the book “The Dead” by James Joyce, tries to control his wife’s feelings throughout their ...

He worked his way in uplifting himself by self education and took the opportunity afforded by the Emancipation ...

The nurse workforce has been growing substantially for the past two decades necessitated by the demand for quality care, an ever increasing population, increased complexity of illnesses as well as a new found passion by the current generation to seek career growth in nursing and healthcare. However, the role of education and nursing curriculum in facilitating the increasing number of nurses trained in various ways and for different roles cannot be assumed. The nursing curriculum has been redefined to accommodate many roles which traverse across direct care roles and indirect care roles (Lowe et al., 2012). On the other ...

The ratio in which a teacher spends the day connecting, directing, and correcting a class can be reflective of how well a classroom is performing. Previously I have spent the majority of my day directing and correcting. I attribute this to my lack of knowledge about the students. Individual connection to students as an educator is important as it gives the educator a chance to understand how a student communicates, as well as how they learn. Significant learning or behavioral issues can be understood, as well as anticipated, and this can change the rest of the day’s ratio ...

Introduction The article, ‘The Mountain of Motor Development: A Metaphor,’ by Clark and Metcalfe, is about understanding the human motor development all throughout his lifespan. According to the authors, just like many scientific phenomena, a man’s motor development may be difficult to conceptualize (Clark & Metcalfe 2). For the same reason, several ways have been devised in order to facilitate its understanding.

Philosophy of health education

Health education has been reinvented as a critical element within the concepts of health promotion. Today, the healthcare sector is redefining itself to a system where the individuals, families and communities have to take a lead role in the management of their health. It is an aspect that empowers the people to recognize the responsibility that they hold towards their own health and in such a way that they regard the nurse or the nursing process as a complementary or support system to help meet their needs. In my view, health is not confined to the physical issues that ...
