Descripción de las Normas del Curso

1. Este curso sigue el modelo “Discipline-Based Dual Language Immersion

Model®” del Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. el cual está diseñado

para promover el desarrollo de cada estudiante como un profesional bilingüe.

Cada taller será facilitado en inglés y español, utilizando el modelo 50/50. Esto

significa que cada taller deberá ser conducido enteramente en el lenguaje

especificado. Los lenguajes serán alternados en cada taller para asegurar que el

curso se ofrezca 50% en inglés y 50% en español. Para mantener un balance, el

módulo debe especificar que se utilizarán ambos idiomas en el quinto taller,

dividiendo el tiempo y las actividades equitativamente entre ambos idiomas. Las

primeras dos horas son estrictamente en español y las últimas dos en inglés.

Los cursos de idiomas deben ser desarrollados en el idioma correspondiente, en

inglés o en español, según aplique.

2. El curso es conducido en formato acelerado y bilingüe, esto requiere que los

estudiantes sean sumamente organizados, enfocados y que se preparen antes de

cada taller de acuerdo al módulo. El estudiante debe hacer todo esfuerzo para

desarrollar las destrezas en los dos idiomas usando los recursos de lenguaje

disponibles dentro y fuera de la institución. El convertirse en un profesional

bilingüe es un proceso complejo y exigente. Cada taller requiere un promedio de

diez (10) horas de preparación y en ocasiones requiere más para poder tener éxito

lingüístico y académico.

3. La asistencia a todos los talleres es obligatoria. El estudiante que se ausente al

taller deberá presentar una excusa razonable al facilitador. El facilitador evaluará

Page 9: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 9

Updated 06/29/2012

si la ausencia es justificada y decidirá como el estudiante repondrá el trabajo

perdido, de ser necesario. El facilitador puede elegir una de estas dos alternativas:

(a) permitirle al estudiante reponer el trabajo o (b) asignarle trabajo adicional

además del trabajo que el estudiante tenga que reponer.

Toda tarea a ser completada antes del taller deberá ser entregada en la fecha

asignada. El facilitador ajustará la nota de las tareas repuestas.

4. Si un estudiante se ausenta a más de un taller el facilitador tendrá las

siguientes opciones:

a. Si es a dos talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota existente en un grado.

b. Si el estudiante se ausenta a tres talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota

existente en dos grados.

5. La asistencia y participación en actividades de la clase y en presentaciones orales

es extremadamente importante pues éstas no se pueden reponer. Si el estudiante

provee una excusa válida y verificable, el facilitador determinará una actividad

equivalente a evaluar que sustituya la misma. Esta actividad deberá incluir el

mismo contenido y componentes del lenguaje como la presentación oral o

actividad que requiera repuesta.

6. En actividades grupales, el grupo será evaluado por su trabajo final. Sin embargo,

cada miembro de grupo deberá participar y cooperar para lograr un trabajo de

excelencia. Los estudiantes también recibirán una calificación individual.

7. Se espera que todo trabajo escrito sea de la autoría de cada estudiante y no

plagiado. Se requiere que todo trabajo sometido al facilitador cumpla con las

reglas para citar apropiadamente o que esté parafraseado y citado dando crédito al

Page 10: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 10

Updated 06/29/2012

autor. Todo estudiante debe ser el autor de su propio trabajo. Todo trabajo que

sea plagiado, copiado o presente trazos del trabajo de otro estudiante o autor será

calificado con cero. El servicio de SafeAssign TM

de Blackboard será utilizado

por los facilitadores para verificar la autoría de los trabajos escritos de los

estudiantes. Es responsabilidad del estudiante de leer la política de plagio de su

universidad. Si usted es estudiante de UT, deberá leer la Sección 11.1 del Manual

del Estudiante. Si es estudiante de UMET y UT, refiérase al Capítulo 13,

secciones 36 y 36.1 de los respectivos manuales.

Se espera un comportamiento ético en todas las actividades del curso. Esto

implica que TODOS los trabajos tienen que ser originales y que para toda

referencia utilizada deberá indicarse la fuente, bien sea mediante citas o

bibliografía utilizando el estilo APA, versión 6. No se tolerará el plagio y, en caso

de que se detecte casos del mismo, el estudiante se expone a recibir cero en el

trabajo y a ser referido al Comité de Disciplina de la institución. Los estudiantes

deben observar aquellas prácticas dirigidas para evitar incurrir en el plagio de

documentos y trabajos pues va en contra de la ética profesional.

8. Para el facilitador poder hacer cambios a las actividades del módulo o guía de

estudio, deberá ser aprobado por el Director de Facultad y Currículo antes de la

primera clase. Es requisito que el facilitador discuta y entregue una copia de los

cambios a los estudiantes al principio del primer taller.

9. El facilitador establecerá los medios para contactar a los estudiantes proveyendo

su correo electrónico de SUAGM, teléfonos, día y horario disponibles.

Page 11: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 11

Updated 06/29/2012

10. El uso de celulares está prohibido durante las sesiones de clase; de haber una

necesidad, deberá permanecer en vibración o en silencio.

11. La visita de niños y parientes no registrados en el curso no está permitida en el

salón de clases.

12. Todo estudiante está sujeto a las políticas y normas de conducta y

comportamiento que rigen al SUAGM, al curso y a un adulto profesional.

Filosofía y Metodología Educativa

Este curso está basado en la filosofía educativa del Constructivismo. El Constructivismo

es una filosofía de aprendizaje fundamentada en la premisa, de que, reflexionando a

través de nuestras experiencias, podemos construir nuestro propio entendimiento sobre el

mundo en el que vivimos.

Cada uno de nosotros genera sus propias “reglas “y “modelos mentales” que utilizamos

para darle sentido a nuestras experiencias. Aprender, por lo tanto, es simplemente el

proceso de ajustar nuestros modelos mentales para poder entender nuevas experiencias.

Como facilitadores, nuestro enfoque es el de mantener una conexión entre los hechos con

las experiencias y fomentar un nuevo entendimiento en los estudiantes. También,

intentamos adaptar nuestras estrategias de enseñanza a las respuestas de nuestros

estudiantes y motivar a los mismos a analizar, interpretar, predecir información y

aplicarla a la vida diaria.

PRINCIPIOS DEL CONSTRUCTIVISMO:

1. El aprendizaje es una búsqueda de significados. Por lo tanto, el aprendizaje debe

comenzar con situaciones en las cuales los estudiantes estén buscando activamente

construir un significado.

Page 14: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 14

Updated 06/29/2012

2. Para construir “un significado” se requiere comprender todas las partes: globales y

específicas (“from whole to parts”). Ambas partes deben entenderse en el contexto

del todo. Por lo tanto, el proceso de aprendizaje se enfoca en los conceptos primarios

en contexto y no en hechos aislados.

3. Para enseñar bien, debemos entender los modelos mentales que los estudiantes

utilizan para percibir el mundo y las presunciones que ellos hacen para apoyar dichos

modelos.

4. El propósito del aprendizaje, es para un individuo, el construir su propio significado,

y no sólo el de memorizar las respuestas “correctas” y repetir el significado de otra

persona. Como la educación es intrínsecamente interdisciplinaria, la única forma

válida para asegurar el aprendizaje es hacer de la evaluación parte esencial de dicho

proceso, asegurando que el mismo provea a los estudiantes con la información sobre

la calidad de su aprendizaje.

5. La evaluación debe servir como una herramienta de auto-análisis.

6. Proveer herramientas y ambientes que ayuden a los estudiantes a interpretar las

múltiples perspectivas que existen en el mundo.

7. El aprendizaje debe ser controlado internamente y analizado por el estudiante.

Library, & Voice E-mail.)

Language Lab Minimum Requirement: Students must demonstrate that they have

complied with 10 hours of language lab or e-lab usage for each language (English

and Spanish) per course. This equates to the use of the language lab or e-lab for

two hours weekly for each language per course. The facilitator may require a

higher number of hours for language lab practice based on the language needs for

listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in either or both languages. The

total amount of language lab or e-lab hours is integrated in the activities for

each workshop in the module.

Description of the Evaluation Process: Integrate the use of the language lab and e-lab to

all evaluation rubrics used in the instructional module. The language rubrics for listening,

speaking, reading, and writing provided in Appendix A are integrated to assess student

performance in all courses. The Writing Process: Six Writing Traits Rubrics provided in

Appendix B must be used to evaluate all writing activities in both languages in all

courses. Portfolio Performance Assessment must be one of the evaluation instruments

used in the module and throughout the content of all workshops and appendices. This

instrument must follow established guidelines. Due to the nature of our dual language

instructional model, documentation must be provided on the growth of students towards

Page 17: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

Description of Course Policies

1. This course follows the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. Discipline-

Based Dual Language Immersion Model® designed to promote each student’s

development as a Dual Language Professional. Workshops will be facilitated in

either English or Spanish, strictly using the 50/50 model. This means that each

workshop will be conducted entirely in the language specified for the workshop. The

language used in each workshop needs to be alternated to insure that 50% of the

course is conducted in English and 50% in Spanish. To maintain this balance, the

course module will indicate that both languages must be used during the fifth

workshop, dividing the workshop activities between the two languages. The first two

hours will be in Spanish and the last two hours in English. The 50/50 model does

not apply to language courses where the delivery of instruction must be conducted in

the language taught (Spanish or English only).

2. The course is conducted in an accelerated and dual language format. This requires

that students prepare in advance for each workshop according to the course module.

Students must be structured, organized, committed, and focused to ensure linguistic

and academic success. In order to achieve proficiency expectations in English and in

Spanish, the student must strive to take advantage of all language resources in the

university and in their community since becoming a dual language professional is a

complex and challenging task. Each workshop requires an average of ten hours of

preparation, but could require more.

Page 20: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 20

Updated 06/29/2012

3. Attendance to all class sessions is mandatory. A student who is absent to a workshop

must present a reasonable excuse to the facilitator who in turn will evaluate the reason

for the absence. If it is justified, the facilitator will decide how the student will make

up the missing work, if applicable. The facilitator will decide on the following: allow

the student to make up the work, or allow the student to make up the work and assign

extra work to compensate for the missing class time.

Assignments required prior to the workshop must be completed and turned in on the

assigned date. The facilitator may decide to adjust the grade given for late

assignments and/or make-up work.

4. If a student is absent to more than one workshop, the facilitator will have the

following options:

a. If a student misses two workshops, the facilitator may lower one grade

level based on the student’s existing grade.

b. If the student misses three workshops, the facilitator may lower two

grade levels based on the student’s existing grade.

5. Student attendance and participation in oral presentations and special class activities

are extremely important as it is not possible to assure that they can be made up. If the

student provides a valid and verifiable excuse, the facilitator may determine a

substitute evaluation activity if he/she understands that an equivalent activity is

possible. This activity must include the same content and language components as the

oral presentation or special activity that was missed.

Page 21: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 21

Updated 06/29/2012

6. In cooperative learning activities, the group will be assessed for their final work as a

group. However, each member will have to collaborate to assure the success of the

group. Students will also receive an individual grade for their work.

7. It is expected that all written work will be solely that of the student and should not be

plagiarized. That is, the student must be the author of all work submitted. All quoted

or paraphrased material must be properly cited, with credit given to its author or

publisher. It should be noted that plagiarized writings are easily detectable and

students should not risk losing credit for material that is clearly not their own.

SafeAssignTM

, a Blackboard plagiarism deterrent service, will be used by the

facilitators to verify students’ ownership of written assignments. It is the

student’s responsibility to read the university’s plagiarism policy. If you are a UT

student, read Section 11.1 of the Student Manual, and if you belong to UMET or

UNE, refer to Chapter 13, Sections 36 and 36.1 of the respective manuals.

Ethical behavior is expected from the students in all course related activities. This

means that ALL papers submitted by the student must be original work, and that all

references used will be properly cited or mentioned in the bibliography. Plagiarism

will not be tolerated and, in case of detecting an incidence, the student will obtain a

zero in the assignment or activity and could be referred to the Discipline Committee.

8. In order for the Facilitator to make changes to activities and the study guide, the

Faculty and Curriculum Director must approve such changes before the first day of

class. The Facilitator must discuss the approved changes with students in the first

class workshop. A written copy of the changes must also be provided to students at

the beginning of the first workshop.

Page 22: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 22

Updated 06/29/2012

9. The facilitator will establish a means of contacting students by providing the SUAGM

e-mail address, phone number, hours to be contacted, and days available.

10. The use of cellular phones is prohibited during sessions; if there is a need to have one,

it must be on vibrate or silent mode during class session.

11. Children or family members that are not registered in the course are not allowed in

the classrooms.

12. All students are subject to the policies regarding behavior at the university

community established by the institution, and in this course.

Teaching Philosophy and Methodology

The activities for the course reflect the educational philosophy of Constructivism.

Constructivism is an educational philosophy founded on the premise that, by reflecting

on our experiences, we construct our own understanding of the world in which we live.

Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to make sense

of our experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting our mental

models to accommodate new experiences.

One of the main goals facilitators have is assisting students in making connections

between their prior knowledge of facts, and fostering new understanding that is relevant

to real live experiences. We will also attempt to tailor our teaching strategies to student

responses and encourage students to analyze, interpret, and predict information.

CONSTRUCTIVISM GUIDING PRINCIPLES:

1. Learning is a search for meaning. Therefore, learning must start with the issues

around which students are actively trying to construct meaning.

2. Meaning requires understanding “wholes” as well as “parts”. The “parts” must be

understood in the context of “wholes”. Therefore, the learning process focuses on

primary concepts, not isolated facts.

3. In order to teach well, we must understand the mental models that students use to

perceive the world, and the assumptions they make to support those models.

4. The purpose of learning is for an individual to construct his or her own meaning, not

just memorize the "right" answers and regurgitate someone else's meaning. Since

education is inherently interdisciplinary, the only valuable way to measure learning is

Page 25: Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, Inc. School for

NURS 204 Laboratorio de Destrezas Técnicas 25

Updated 06/29/2012

to make assessment part of the learning process, thus ensuring that it provides

students with information on the quality of their learning.

5. Evaluation should serve as a self-analysis tool.

6. Provide tools and environments that help learners interpret the multiple perspectives

of the world.

7. Learning should be internally controlled and mediated by the learner.

“Can Do” Writing Rubric

National Proficiency

Levels Criteria

Starting Lacks clear writing and focus.. Details are limited or unclear. There’s no clear distinction to what is important and what is supported.

Lacks engaging and drawing a conclusion. Paper simply starts and ends. Lack of transitions make it difficult to understand the paper.

Writes with limited use of vocabulary or specific words to transmit meaning of the essay. Misuse of parts of speech makes it difficult to understand

the writing.

Rambles- use of incomplete sentences that are too long to understand. Sentences follow a simple structure and or style.

Struggles with spelling, punctuation capitalization and other writing conventions. This makes it very difficult to understand the writing.

Lacks strategic writing skills (e. g., knowledge of the writing process; declarative, procedural and conditional knowledge; and strategies for inquiry, for

drafting [such as investigating genre, considering audience, and responding to purpose], and for product revision) that are clearly not developed.

Emerging Writes sentences that are still unclear there seems to be a guide to a focused topic; however, it may drift at times. There is an attempt in details to

support main idea. Reader can still feel confused.

Attempts to write an introduction and or conclusion. Use of transitions helps, but paper is in need of more details.

Struggles with some vocabulary terms that are used inappropriately. Greater command of the parts of speech is developing,.

but many words are still used incorrectly.

Attempts to create a style of sentence structure here and there; although, for the most part it sticks to one style.

Shows need of improving spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and other writing conventions. It is still difficult to read the writing; but there are signs

of improvement.

Demonstrates emerging strategic writing skills.

Developing Writes with an unclear focus. Writing appears to be on one topic, but shifts to another topic at times. Support of main idea is lacking. Reader is left

with unanswered questions.

Attempts to write a proper introduction and conclusion however, both are dull or unclear. Transitions help connect ideas although at times they

distract the flow.

Selects and uses words appropriately; however, they are not higher level and need more vigor.

Formulates well-written sentences; however, style and structure of sentences are repetitious.

Demonstrates control of spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and other writing conventions. However, the writing could read and sound better by

improving conventions.

Utilizes strategic writing skills properly (now evident).

Expanding Writes with a focus in mind; however, there is room for improvement. Needs more relevant details to support the main idea.

Some readers’ questions can be answered, while others are left with doubt.

Uses a proper introduction and conclusion, however, some improvement is needed. Needs to continue using transitional words are properly in order to

allow the proper flow of ideas.

Selects and uses vocabulary words that are much more livelier and appropriate. Some common wording can be improved.

Writes with a definite style, and sentence structure is “catchy” with few mistakes.

Demonstrates good control of spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and other writing conventions. Mistakes are few and nothing distracts from the

writing.

Applies mature strategic writing skills.

Bridging Writing is clear and focused on a narrowed topic. Details are relevant and accurate, and they support the main ideas. Reader’s questions are answered

Writing has a clear introduction that’s hooks the reader and conclusion that leaves a lasting impression. Use of transitions helps the reader to connect

ideas. Reading flows and not dull.

Words used in the writing are specific and accurate. Vivid verbs and modifying words are present. Words used enhance the meaning of the writing.

Six Traits for Analytic Writing Rubrics

Trait #1: Idea and Content

Criteria per Level Source: Arizona Department of Education. AIMS Six Trait Analytic Writing Rubric. Retrieved from https://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/6traits/

6

The writing is exceptionally clear, focused and interesting. It holds the reader’s attention throughout. Main ideas stand out and are developed by strong support and rich details suitable to audience and purpose. The writing is characterized by • clarity, focus, and control. • main idea(s) that stand out. • supporting, relevant, carefully selected details; when appropriate, use of resources provides strong, accurate, credible support • a thorough, balanced, in-depth explanation/ exploration of the topic; the writing makes connections and shares insights. • content and selected details that are well suited to audience and purpose.

The writing is characterized by • clarity, focus, and control. • main idea(s) that stand out. • supporting, relevant, carefully selected details; when appropriate, use of resources provides strong, accurate, credible support. • a thorough, balanced explanation/exploration of the topic; the writing makes connections and shares insights. • content and selected details that are well-suited to audience and purpose.

4

The writing is clear and focused. The reader can easily understand the main ideas. Support is present, although it may be limited or rather general. The writing is characterized by • an easily identifiable purpose. • clear main idea(s) • supporting details that are relevant, but may be overly general or limited in places; when appropriate, resources are used to provide accurate support. • a topic that is explored/explained, although developmental details may occasionally be out of balance with the main idea(s); some connections and insights may be present. • content and selected details that are relevant, but perhaps not consistently well chosen for audience and purpose.

3

The reader can understand the main ideas, although they may be overly broad or simplistic, and the results may not be effective. Supporting detail is often limited, insubstantial, overly general, or occasionally slightly off-topic. The writing is characterized by • an easily identifiable purpose and main idea(s). • predictable or overly-obvious main ideas or plot; conclusions or main points seem to echo observations heard elsewhere. • support that is attempted; but developmental details that are often limited in scope, uneven, somewhat off-topic, predictable, or overly general. • details that may not be well-grounded in credible resources; they may be based on clichés, stereotypes or questionable sources of information. • difficulties when moving from general observations to specifics.

2

Main ideas and purpose are somewhat unclear or development is attempted but minimal. The writing is characterized by • a purpose and main idea(s) that may require extensive inferences by the reader. • minimal development; insufficient details. • irrelevant details that clutter the text. • extensive repetition of detail.

1 The writing lacks a central idea or purpose. The writing is characterized by • ideas that are extremely limited or simply unclear. • attempts at development that are minimal or non-existent; the paper is too short to demonstrate the development of an idea.

Trait #2: Organization

Criteria per Level

6

The organization enhances the central idea(s) and its development. The order and structure are compelling and move the reader through the text easily. The writing is characterized by • effective, perhaps creative, sequencing; the organizational structure fits the topic, and the writing is easy to follow. • a strong, inviting beginning that draws the reader in and a strong satisfying sense of resolution or closure. • smooth, effective transitions among all elements (sentences, paragraphs, and ideas). • details that fit where placed

4

Organization is clear and coherent. Order and structure are present, but may seem formulaic. The writing is characterized by • clear sequencing. • an organization that may be predictable. • a recognizable, developed beginning that may not be particularly inviting; a developed conclusion that may lack subtlety. • a body that is easy to follow with details that fit where placed. • transitions that may be stilted or formulaic. • organization which helps the reader, despite some weaknesses.

3

An attempt has been made to organize the writing; however, the overall structure is inconsistent or skeletal. The writing is characterized by • attempts at sequencing, but the order or the relationship among ideas may occasionally be unclear. • a beginning and an ending which, although present, are either undeveloped or too obvious (e.g. “My topic is...”, “These are all the reasons that…”) • transitions that sometimes work. The same few transitional devices (e.g., coordinating conjunctions, numbering, etc.) may be overused. • a structure that is skeletal or too rigid. • placement of details that may not always be effective. • organization which lapses in some places, but helps the reader in others.

2

The writing lacks a clear organizational structure. An occasional organizational device is discernible; however, the writing is either difficult to follow and the reader has to reread substantial portions, or the piece is simply too short to demonstrate organizational skills. The writing is characterized by • some attempts at sequencing, but the order or the relationship among ideas is frequently unclear. • a missing or extremely undeveloped beginning, body, and/or ending. • a lack of transitions, or when present, ineffective or overused. • a lack of an effective organizational structure. • details that seem to be randomly placed, leaving the reader frequently confused.

1

The writing lacks coherence; organization seems haphazard and disjointed. Even after rereading, the reader remains confused. The writing is characterized by • a lack of effective sequencing. • a failure to provide an identifiable beginning, body and/or ending. • a lack of transitions. • pacing that is consistently awkward; the reader feels either mired down in trivia or rushed along too rapidly. • a lack of organization which ultimately obscures or distorts the main point.

Trait #3: Voice

Criteria per Level

6

The writer has chosen a voice appropriate for the topic, purpose and audience. The writer seems deeply committed to the topic, and there is an exceptional sense of “writing to be read.” The writing is expressive, engaging, or sincere. The writing is characterized by • an effective level of closeness to or distance from the audience (e.g., a narrative should have a strong personal voice, while an expository piece may require extensive use of outside resources and a more academic voice; nevertheless, both should be engaging, lively, or interesting. Technical writing may require greater distance.). • an exceptionally strong sense of audience; the writer seems to be aware of the reader and of how to communicate the message most effectively. The reader may discern the writer behind the words and feel a sense of interaction. • a sense that the topic has come to life; when appropriate, the writing may show originality, liveliness, honesty, conviction, excitement, humor, or suspense.

4

A voice is present. The writer demonstrates commitment to the topic, and there may be a sense of “writing to be read.” In places, the writing is expressive, engaging, or sincere. The writing is characterized by • a questionable or inconsistent level of closeness to or distance from the audience. • a sense of audience; the writer seems to be aware of the reader but has not consistently employed an appropriate voice. The reader may glimpse the writer behind the words and feel a sense of interaction in places. • liveliness, sincerity, or humor when appropriate; however, at times the writing may be either inappropriately casual or personal, or inappropriately formal and stiff.

3

The writer’s commitment to the topic seems inconsistent. A sense of the writer may emerge at times; however, the voice is either inappropriately personal or inappropriately impersonal. The writing is characterized by • a limited sense of audience; the writer’s awareness of the reader is unclear. • an occasional sense of the writer behind the words; however, the voice may shift or disappear a line or two later and the writing become somewhat mechanical. • a limited ability to shift to a more objective voice when necessary.

2

The writing provides little sense of involvement or commitment. There is no evidence that the writer has chosen a suitable voice. The writing is characterized by • little engagement of the writer; the writing tends to be largely flat, lifeless, stiff, or mechanical. • a voice that is likely to be overly informal and personal. • a lack of audience awareness; there is little sense of "writing to be read." • little or no hint of the writer behind the words. There is rarely a sense of interaction between reader and writer.

1

The writing seems to lack a sense of involvement or commitment. The writing is characterized by • no engagement of the writer; the writing is flat and lifeless. • a lack of audience awareness; there is no sense of “writing to be read.” • no hint of the writer behind the words.

Trait #4: Word Choice

Criteria per Level

6

Words convey the intended message in an exceptionally interesting, precise, and natural way appropriate to audience and purpose. The writer employs a rich, broad range of words, which have been carefully chosen and thoughtfully placed for impact. The writing is characterized by • accurate, strong, specific words; powerful words energize the writing. • fresh, original expression; slang, if used, seems purposeful and is effective. • vocabulary that is striking and varied, but that is natural and not overdone. • ordinary words used in an unusual way. • words that evoke strong images; figurative language may be used.

5

Words convey the intended message in an interesting, precise, and natural way appropriate to audience and purpose. The writer employs a broad range of words which have been carefully chosen and thoughtfully placed for impact. The writing is characterized by • accurate, specific words; word choices energize the writing. • fresh, vivid expression; slang, if used, seems purposeful and is effective. • vocabulary that may be striking and varied, but that is natural and not overdone. • ordinary words used in an unusual way. • words that evoke clear images; figurative language may be used

4

Words effectively convey the intended message. The writer employs a variety of words that are functional and appropriate to audience and purpose. The writing is characterized by • words that work but do not particularly energize the writing. • expression that is functional; however, slang, if used, does not seem purposeful and is not particularly effective. • attempts at colorful language that may occasionally seem overdone. • occasional overuse of technical language or jargon. • rare experiments with language; however, the writing may have some fine moments and generally avoids clichés.

3

Language is quite ordinary, lacking interest, precision and variety, or may be inappropriate to audience and purpose in places. The writer does not employ a variety of words, producing a sort of “generic” paper filled with familiar words and phrases. The writing is characterized by • words that work, but that rarely capture the reader’s interest. • expression that seems mundane and general; slang, if used, does not seem purposeful and is not effective. • attempts at colorful language that seem overdone or forced. • words that are accurate for the most part, although misused words may occasionally appear, technical language or jargon may be overused or inappropriately used. • reliance on clichés and overused expressions.

2

Language is monotonous and/or misused, detracting from the meaning and impact. The writing is characterized by • words that are colorless, flat or imprecise. • monotonous repetition or overwhelming reliance on worn expressions that repeatedly distract from the message. • images that are fuzzy or absent altogether.

1

The writing shows an extremely limited vocabulary or is so filled with misuses of words that the meaning is obscured. Only the most general kind of message is communicated because of vague or imprecise language. The writing is characterized by • general, vague words that fail to communicate. • an extremely limited range of words. • words that simply do not fit the text; they seem imprecise, inadequate, or just plain wrong.

Trait #5: Sentence Fluency

Criteria per Level

6

The writing has an effective flow and rhythm. Sentences show a high degree of craftsmanship, with consistently strong and varied structure that makes expressive oral reading easy and enjoyable. The writing is characterized by • a natural, fluent sound; it glides along with one sentence flowing effortlessly into the next. • extensive variation in sentence structure, length, and beginnings that add interest to the text. • sentence structure that enhances meaning by drawing attention to key ideas or reinforcing relationships among ideas. • varied sentence patterns that create an effective combination of power and grace. • strong control over sentence structure; fragments, if used at all, work well. • stylistic control; dialogue, if used, sounds natural.

The writing is characterized by • a natural, fluent sound; it glides along with one sentence flowing into the next. • variation in sentence structure, length, and beginnings that add interest to the text. • sentence structure that enhances meaning. • control over sentence structure; fragments, if used at all, work well. • stylistic control; dialogue, if used sounds natural.

4

The writing flows; however, connections between phrases or sentences may be less than fluid. Sentence patterns are somewhat varied, contributing to ease in oral reading. The writing is characterized by • a natural sound; the reader can move easily through the piece, although it may lack a certain rhythm and grace. • some repeated patterns of sentence structure, length, and beginnings that may detract somewhat from overall impact. • strong control over simple sentence structures, but variable control over more complex sentences; fragments, if present, are usually effective. • occasional lapses in stylistic control; dialogue, if used, sounds natural for the most part, but may at times sound stilted or unnatural.

3

The writing tends to be mechanical rather than fluid. Occasional awkward constructions may force the reader to slow down or reread. The writing is characterized by • some passages that invite fluid oral reading; however, others do not. • some variety in sentences structure, length, and beginnings, although the writer falls into repetitive sentence patterns. • good control over simple sentence structures, but little control over more complex sentences; fragments, if present, may not be effective. • sentences which, although functional, lack energy. • lapses in stylistic control; dialogue, if used, may sound stilted or unnatural.

2

The writing tends to be either choppy or rambling. Awkward constructions often force the reader to slow down or reread. The writing is characterized by • significant portions of the text that are difficult to follow or read aloud. • sentence patterns that are monotonous (e.g., subject-verb or subject-verb-object). • a significant number of awkward, choppy, or rambling constructions.

1

The writing is difficult to follow or to read aloud. Sentences tend to be incomplete, rambling, or very awkward. The writing is characterized by • text that does not invite—and may not even permit—smooth oral reading. • confusing word order that is often jarring and irregular. • sentence structure that frequently obscures meaning. • sentences that are disjointed, confusing, or rambling.

Trait #6: Conventions

Criteria per Level

6

The writing demonstrates exceptionally strong control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage) and uses them effectively to enhance communication. Errors are so few and so minor that the reader can easily skim right over them unless specifically searching for them. The writing is characterized by • strong control of conventions; manipulation of conventions may occur for stylistic effect. • strong, effective use of punctuation that guides the reader through the text. • correct spelling, even of more difficult words. • paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct grammar and usage that contribute to clarity and style. • skill in using a wide range of conventions in a sufficiently long and complex piece. • little or no need for editing.

5

The writing demonstrates strong control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage) and uses them effectively to enhance communication. Errors are so few and so minor that they do not impede readability. The writing is characterized by • strong control of conventions. • effective use of punctuation that guides the reader through the text. • correct spelling, even of more difficult words. • paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct capitalization; errors, if any, are minor. • correct grammar and usage that contribute to clarity and style. • skill in using a wide range of conventions in a sufficiently long and complex piece. • little need for editing.

4

The writing demonstrates control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage). Minor errors, while perhaps noticeable, do not impede readability. The writing is characterized by • control over conventions used, although a wide range is not demonstrated. • correct end-of-sentence punctuation, internal punctuation may sometimes be incorrect. • spelling that is usually correct, especially on common words. • basically sound paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct capitalization; errors, if any, are minor. • occasional lapses in correct grammar and usage; problems are not severe enough to distort meaning or confuse the reader. • moderate need for editing.

3

The writing demonstrates limited control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage). Errors begin to impede readability. The writing is characterized by • some control over basic conventions; the text may be too simple to reveal mastery. • end-of-sentence punctuation that is usually correct; however, internal punctuation contains frequent errors. • spelling errors that distract the reader; misspelling of common words occurs. • paragraphs that sometimes run together or begin at ineffective places. • capitalization errors. • errors in grammar and usage that do not block meaning but do distract the reader. • significant need for editing.

2

The writing demonstrates little control of standard writing conventions. Frequent, significant errors impede readability. The writing is characterized by • little control over basic conventions. • many end-of-sentence punctuation errors; internal punctuation contains frequent errors. • spelling errors that frequently distract the reader; misspelling of common words often occurs. • paragraphs that often run together or begin in ineffective places. • capitalization that is inconsistent or often incorrect. • errors in grammar and usage that interfere with readability and meaning. • substantial need for editing.

1

Numerous errors in usage, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation repeatedly distract the reader and make the text difficult to read. In fact, the severity and frequency of errors are so overwhelming that the reader finds it difficult to focus on the message and must reread for meaning. The writing is characterized by • very limited skill in using conventions. • basic punctuation (including end-of-sentence punctuation) that tends to be omitted, haphazard, or incorrect. • frequent spelling errors that significantly impair readability. • paragraph breaks that may be highly irregular or so frequent (every sentence) that they bear no relation to the organization of the text. • capitalization that appears to be random. • a need for extensive editing.

Starting an Intravenous Infusion YES NO

1. Verify IV order against the physician order. Clarify any

inconsistencies. Check the patient’s chart for allergies. Check for color,

clarity, expiration date, etc.

2. Know techniques for IV insertion, precautions, purpose of the IV

administration, and medications if ordered.

3. Gather all equipment and bring to bedside.

4. Identify the patient. Ask the patient if allergic to any medication,

iodine, or tape, as appropriate. If considering using an anesthetic

(numbing) cream or 1% lidocaine injection, check for allergies for these

substances as well.

5. Explain the need for the IV and procedure to patient.

6. Perform hand hygiene. If using an anesthetic cream, apply the

anesthetic cream to a few potential insertion sites.

7. Prepare IV solution and tubing:

a. Maintain strict aseptic technique when opening sterile packages

and IV solution. Remove administration set from package.

b. Clamp IV tubing, uncap spike on administration set, and insert into

entry site on IV bag or bottle as manufacturer directs.

c. Squeeze drip chamber and allow it to fill at least halfway.

d. Remove cap at end of the IV tubing and while maintaining its

sterility, open the IV tubing clamp, and allow fluid to move through

tubing. Allow fluid to flow until all air bubbles have disappeared and

the entire length of the tubing is primed (filled) with IV solution. Close

clamp and recap end of tubing, maintaining sterility of the setup.

e. If an electronic device is to be used, follow manufacturer’s

instructions for inserting tubing and setting infusion rate.

f. Apply label if medication was added to container (pharmacy may

have added medication and applied label). Label tubing with date and

time that tubing was hung.

g. Place time-tape on container and hang IV on pole.

8. Place patient in low Fowler’s position in bed. Place protective towel

or pad under patient’s arm. Close the door to the room or pull the

bedside curtain.

9. Provide emotional support as needed.

10. Select and palpate for an appropriate vein. Avoid an arm that

has been compromised such as with presence of arteriovenous

fistula.

11. If the site is hairy and agency policy permits, clip a 2″ area around

the intended site of entry.

12. Apply a tourniquet 3” to 4” above the venipuncture site to obstruct

venous blood flow and distend the vein. Direct the ends of the

tourniquet away from the site of entry. Make sure the radial pulse is still

present.

13. Instruct the patient to hold the arm lower than the heart.

14. Ask patient to open and close fist. Observe and palpate for a suitable

vein. Try the following techniques if a vein cannot be felt:

a. Massage the patient’s arm from proximal to distal end and gently tap

over intended vein.

b. Remove tourniquet and place warm, moist compresses over intended

vein for 10 to 15 minutes.

15. Put on clean gloves.

16. If using intradermal lidocaine, cleanse insertion site with alcohol

using a circular motion. Inject a small amount (0.2–0.3 mL) of lidocaine

into the area. If numbing cream was used, wipe cream off insertion site.

Cleanse site with an antiseptic solution such as chlorhexidine or

according to agency policy. Use a circular motion to move from the

center outward for several inches.

17. Use the non-dominant hand, placed about 1″ or 2″ below entry site,

to hold the skin taut against the vein. Avoid touching the prepared

site. Ask the patient to remain still while performing the venipuncture.

18. Enter the skin gently, holding the catheter by the hub in your

dominant hand, bevel side up, at a 10- to 15-degree angle. Catheter may

be inserted from directly over the vein or the side of the vein. While

following the course of the vein, advance the needle or catheter into the

vein. A sensation of “give” can be felt when the needle enters the vein.

NURS 204 TECHNICAL SKILLS 109

Updated 06/29/2012

19. When blood returns through the lumen of the needle or the

flashback chamber of the catheter, advance either device 1/8″ to 1/4″

farther into the vein. A catheter needs to be advanced until the hub is at

the venipuncture site, but the exact technique depends on the type of

device used.

20. Release the tourniquet as soon as possible. Quickly remove the

protective cap from the IV tubing and attach the tubing to the catheter or

needle. Stabilize the catheter or needle with your nondominant hand.

21. Start the flow of solution promptly by releasing the clamp on the

tubing. Examine the tissue around the entry site for signs of infiltration.

22. Secure the catheter with narrow non-allergenic tape (1/2″), placed

sticky side up under the hub and crossed over the top of the hub.

23. Place sterile dressing over venipuncture site. Agency policy may

direct nurse to use gauze dressing or transparent dressing. Apply tape to

dressing if necessary. Loop the tubing near the site of entry, and anchor

to dressing.

24. Label the IV dressing with the date, time, site, and type and size of

catheter used for the infusion on the tape anchoring the tubing.

25. Remove all equipment and dispose of properly. Remove gloves and

perform hand hygiene.

26. Anchor arm to an arm board for support if necessary, or apply a site

protector or tube-shaped mesh netting over the insertion site. Explain to

patient the purpose of the arm board and the importance of safeguarding

the site when using the extremity.

27. Adjust the rate of solution flow according to the amount prescribed,

or follow manufacturer’s directions for adjusting flow rate on infusion

pump.

28. Document procedure and patient’s response. Chart time, site, device

used, and solution.

29. Return to check flow rate and observe IV site for infiltration 30

minutes after starting infusion. Ask the patient if experiencing any pain

or discomfort related to the IV infusion.

Using Venipuncture to Collect a Venous Blood Sample for Routine Testing S N/I

1. Gather the necessary supplies. Check product expiration dates. Identify

ordered tests and select the appropriate blood-collection tubes.

2. Identify the patient. Explain the procedure. Allow the patient time to ask

questions and verbalize concerns about the venipuncture procedure.

3. Close curtains around bed and close door to room if possible.

4. Provide for good light. Artificial light is recommended. Place a trash

receptacle within easy reach.

5. Assist the patient to a comfortable position, either sitting or lying. If the

patient is lying in bed, raise the bed to a comfortable working height. Expose

the arm, supporting it in an extended position on a firm surface, such as a table

top.

6. Perform hand hygiene.

7. Determine the patient’s preferred site for the procedure based on his or her

previous experience. Apply a tourniquet to the upper arm on the chosen side

approximately 3” to 4” above the potential puncture site. Apply enough

pressure to impede venous circulation but not arterial blood flow.

8. Assess the veins to determine the best puncture site. Observe the skin for the

vein’s blue color, or palpate the vein for a firm rebound sensation.

Updated 06/29/2012

9. Release the tourniquet. Check that the vein has decompressed.

10. Attach the needle to the Vacutainer device. Place first blood-collection tube

into the Vacutainer, but not engaged in the puncture device in the Vacutainer.

11. Put on non-sterile gloves. Clean the patient’s skin at the selected puncture

site with the antimicrobial swab. If using chlorhexidine, use a back-and-forth

motion, applying friction for 30 seconds to site, or procedure recommended by

the manufacturer. If using alcohol, wipe in a circular motion spiraling outward.

Allow the skin to dry before performing the venipuncture.

12. Reapply the tourniquet approximately 3” to 4” above the identified puncture

site. Apply enough pressure to impede venous circulation but not arterial blood

flow.

13. Hold the patient’s arm in a downward position with your nondominant

hand. Align the needle and Vacutainer device with the chosen vein, holding the

Vacutainer and needle in your dominant hand. Use the thumb or first finger of

non-dominant hand to apply pressure and traction to the skin just below the

identified puncture site.

14. Inform the patient that he or she is going to feel a pinch. With the bevel of

the needle up, insert the needle into the vein at a 15-degree angle to the skin.

15. Grasp the Vacutainer securely to stabilize it in the vein with your

nondominant hand, and push the first collection tube into the puncture device in

the Vacutainer, until the rubber stopper on the collection tube is punctured. You

will feel the tube push into place on the puncture device. Blood will flow into

the tube automatically.

Updated 06/29/2012

16. Remove the tourniquet as soon as blood flows adequately into the tube.

17. Continue to hold Vacutainer in place in the vein and continue to fill the

required tubes, removing one and inserting another. Gently rotate each tube as

you remove it.

18. After you have drawn all required blood samples, remove the last

collection tube from the Vacutainer. Place a gauze pad over the puncture

site and slowly and gently remove the needle from the vein. Engage needle

guard. Do not apply pressure to site until the needle has been fully removed.

19. Apply gentle pressure to the puncture site for 2 to 3 minutes or until

bleeding stops.

20. After bleeding stops, apply an adhesive bandage.

21. Check specimen labels with patient identification bracelet. Label should

include patient’s name and identification number, time specimen was collected,

route of collection, identification for person obtaining sample, and any other

information required by agency policy. Place label on the tubes per facility

policy. Place tubes in plastic sealable biohazard bag. Immediately transport to

laboratory.

22. Check the venipuncture site to see if a hematoma has developed.

23. Discard Vacutainer and needle in sharps container. Remove gloves and

perform hand hygiene.

24. Assist the patient to a comfortable position. If patient’s bed was raised,

place the bed in the lowest position.
