full mission simulation, and debriefing. The reflective period after a simulation describes debriefing that involves a discussion of the enacted scenario. The components of debriefing utilizing the Ee-chats includes emotion, experience, communication, higher order of thinking, acceptance of the activity and the time and structure (Billings and Halstead, 2012).

Littrell et al., 2006). An example of the above limitations is the effort of several researchers such as (Black & Mendenhall, 1990) to promote certain aspects of other theories, like Social Learning Theory, in order to explain the way which the adjustment of the expatriates in different cultures could be achieved by learning new behaviors.

In myth three Sackstein…
Education Statement My short-term educational goal is to complete my Bachelor of Health Science Degree program with honors. Long-term, I intend to pursue a more focused Master’s degree in Clinical Research. Unfortunately, there are few bachelor programs for clinical research available. To date I am an LPN as well as a certified clinical research coordinator. Regrettably, there were few nursing associate degree programs available when I was searching for an accelerated program. The LPN education…
course on service learning. I thought it would be like Freshman Orientation 101 where we would learn more history about Alabama A&M University, but both classes are very different. This semester I have learned how important it is for an individual to give back to their community. I learned the meaning of service learning. Service-learning is a teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach…
