Strategic Versus Deep Learning The class that I took that I have to exercise strategic learner in order to pass a test is Chemistry, which happened to be a virtual learning and I basically have to do both the lab aspect of it online too and that was so hard for me, but I focused on one goal which is passing the class with a good grade. When it comes to surface learning, most of the time, we are unable to retain the information (Kabaker, 2015) or gain a valuable learning experience. I thought there is no reflection or purpose in trying to comprehend the information because the course won't directly relate or help me in Nursing career. But I somehow still manage to find a strategic way of passing the course, such as reviewing notes and simply memorizing information. , boot camp sessions, and flash cards. According to Potter et al, learning comes in three domains: cognitive (understanding), affective (attitudes), and psychomotor skills (Potter, Perry, Stockert, & Hall, 2017). The most important in my opinion is cognitive, which includes analyzing material. The questions on the Chemistry exam are multiple-choice and some essays questions too. They were not questions that I had to think a lot to find the answers. Exams that make you think of the answer or analyze what you've learned help in developing a deep learning experience. By analyzing the material, we are evaluating and understanding the deeper part of the meaning behind the class's objective. I also put more effort in characterizing the information, so I acted and responded to the information being given, and I examined the values and beliefs according to the course (Kabaker, 2015). All of these things helped me in better understand the material and relating to it, which turned out great after giving it a deep learning style. Do you agree with The statement Yes or No? Why?

Missy Mendez, a nurse manager of a 95-bed medical-surgical unit in Yucatan, Kansas, would like to have her health care organization, Yucatan Memorial Health Center, embrace the concept of a high-performance organization. She would like the administration to develop a culture of a high-performing organization. Nurse Mendez knows that high-performance organizations have leaders who communicate a strong and clear mission and vision to employees, engage in strategic thinking that anticipates customer needs and market changes, commit to ongoing identification of problems, have a preoccupation with potential failures, are resilient and flexible, and use creative and improvisational problem solving to address failures or near-misses. Nurse Mendez approaches the director of nursing and provides multiple resources and contacts about the high-performance organization concept. The director asks her several questions about how she could coordinate hospital-wide efforts to describe this concept and support a customer-focused, team-based organization to support quality efforts. Yucatan Memorial Health Center, although it has a good quality improvement process, historically has emphasized individual successes and unit-based projects and tends to be punitive when managing clinical incidents.
1. Part of the quality improvement process, of course, involves nurse managers implementing what Nurse Mendez refers to as a health care quality toolbox. For example, one unit frequently grapples with the problems encountered in scheduling radiology for patients. Some patients are scheduled specifically for diagnostic procedures, while others at the center are sent to radiology spontaneously by their physicians during a medical appointment. To eliminate as many scheduling problems as possible, she asks affected nursing managers to diagram causes of each scheduling conflict as it arises, including unclear policies or protocols, poor placement or a number of equipment and machines, and time each patient spends in radiology awaiting either tests or results. This particular strategy is an example of what sort of tool?

Sit or stand for this experiment. Slump your shoulders and slightly round your upper back (thoracic region), hang your head forward as if looking at your phone on at your waist/ on your lap. Now, in that position, take a deep breath. Use your diaphragm, intercostals, and even neck muscles to keep breathing in deeply. Notice how long you can breathe in for, the amount of time as well as the volume. Now, roll your shoulders up and back, put a small sway in your lumbar region, and bring your head so that it balances atop your cervical spine looking straight forward. Now repeat the inhalation. Breathe deeply with the diaphragm, intercostals, and neck muscles. Note how long you are able to make this inhalation and the volume of this inhalation compared with the previous inhalation. What did you notice? How can you explain this observation? What is the take home message of this exercise?
