The QSEN initiative was first introduced during my basic nursing training as a means to summarize the quality and safety material presented throughout the program. It had not been fully integrated into the curriculum, due to its newness. However, after becoming more largely adopted among nursing schools, it became required knowledge for graduation. 2. Reflect on the QSEN project and the ANA Code of Ethics. Did you find similarities between the QSEN project and the ANA Code of Ethics? Reflect…

Climate change has been well known for a long time. Whenever the topic of climate change comes up they're always going some sort of conflict. My whole life I learned that change in the climate is due to human waste. But looking at it from scientific point of view the severity of global warming is not mainly due to the cause of greenhouse gas. More than one factor contribute to the cause. Although scientist often associate it with greenhouse gas. A number of scientists often denied evidence…

For centuries the Arctic Ocean has been famed for its inaccessibility, but with unprecedented ice retreats in recent years as a result of global warming, the Arctic Ocean is becoming rapidly accessible. This means new possibilities for the Arctic countries in terms of trade, travel, and access resources. These recent changes in the topography have led many to portray the Arctic as a geopolitical race for natural resources and territory, with Russia seen as the main aggressor. Russia is depicted…

When a man journeys into a far country, he must be prepared to forget many of the things he has learned, and to acquire such customs as are inherent with existence in the new land; he must abandon the old ideals and the old gods, and oftentimes he must reverse the very codes by which his conduct has hitherto been shaped. To those who have the protean faculty of adaptability, the novelty of such change may even be a source of pleasure; but to those who happen to be hardened to the ruts in which…

The graph above compares the optimal depth for latitudes 21.4S 32.4E, 21.4S 55.3E, and 21.4S 65.3E on the given dates. Latitude 21.4S 32.4E is located in Africa between Zimbabwe and Mozambique, Latitude 21.4S 55.3E is located on Reunion island, and Latitude 21.4S 65.3E is located in the Indian Ocean. Biomass burnings alter the optical depth in Africa, whereas volcanic activity is responsible for the variations in optical depth on Reunion Island. According to the graph, biomass burnings create a…

When hearing the words “writing workshop,” I immediately thought about higher-grade levels such as junior and senior high schools. I pictured teachers setting aside time in class, or even a separate class, for students to work on writing papers, mechanical skills, and the process of writing in general. Yet after reading chapter one in Teaching Writing: Balancing Process and Product, I began to get the sense that the simplicity of the writing process lends itself to be applied in a variety of…

Poetry begs to be spoken; it begs to be heard. The sharing of poetry strengthens connections and brings people together. It builds community. Writing captures all of my attention, like nothing else is able to. I write down whatever makes me feel alive and hope that those words will have the same effect on others. I want my poetry to be a kaleidoscope of memories and emotions that reflects the deepest parts of my own humanity. As if the words were my blood and the paper my second skin, my writing…

the U.S. Department of Education, over 78% of undergraduate students work, a figure that’s been steady since the 1990s. On average, working students hold down jobs for 30 hours per week (Dumbauld). The next is 25% of full-time students also work full time (Dumbauld). When working full time, college students do not have more time to spend with their families, vacations and socializing. Although they do not expect to work so much, students agree to work because they are committed to earning their…

evening activities. Later that night after Harry’s surgery I got a text from my dad. It was a picture of Harry sleeping in his hospital bed. His face was as red as a tomato from the anesthesia, and he looked skinnier than he has ever before. His arm was full of needles with medicine running through his little veins. Looking at the picture made me tear up because he looked so worn down and tired. My mother had told me that the surgery had gone well, but there was a 60% chance that his the…
