This week we focused on learning, how we are constantly learning new things, how it is beneficial to have a growth mindset approach to learning, and how it is helpful to reflect on our strategies as a learner. As you reflect on these strategies, think about how you previously learned a new skill, subject, or process in an informal setting. When we often think of learning, we focus on formal settings–your high school classroom, an online class you took, military training, or a bootcamp for a certification exam. Informal learning experiences can teach us quite a bit, though. What strategies and approaches did you use in your informal learning experience? How can you apply those to learning new concepts and skills while you’re a student at University of Maryland Global Campus? Even if the university environment is new to you, you come to learning with skills, strengths, and strategies you can draw from to connect new knowledge to what you already know.
For example, think about how you learned to cook a new dish by following a recipe. Perhaps you first blocked out time to read the recipe all the way through, noting the ingredients and tools you would need to make the dish. When it came time to make the dish, you might have followed the recipe step by step, then asked your partner or a friend to taste it and share his or her opinion. Based on that feedback, you adjusted and customized the recipe. After that, you practiced making the dish several times, adding your own flavors and spices to perfect the recipe to your liking. Once you became familiar with the recipe, you may have progressed to making the dish from memory.
As a university student, you can apply this same learning process and strategy to your academics. Let’s look at the correlation between the two. When you’re learning a new concept or skill in one of your courses, first, set aside time in your schedule to learn. Next, read about the topic and take notes to deepen your understanding. Practice what you learned, maybe by using flashcards or completing a set of exercises. Next, share what you learned with others, such as your instructor or classmates, to get their feedback on your work and to enhance your learning from their input. Finally, practice a few more times until you can readily transfer what you learned to different contexts.
For this assignment, take some time to reflect on the following questions:
Consider a learning experience that was successful for you. What were you able to learn?
What did you do that helped you succeed in your learning?
How would you apply those strategies to your classwork at University of Maryland Global Campus?
In one to two double-spaced pages provide your answers to the questions in a Word document. A template for this assignment is available for your use. Upload it to the Assignments Folder by 11:59 p.m. ET on Tuesday of Week 2.

Case Study: Urinary Tract Infection
You are working in an extended care facility when M.Z.’s daughter brings her mother in for a week’s stay while she goes on a planned vacation. M.Z. is an 89-year-old widow with a 4-day history of non- localized abdominal pain, incontinence, new-onset mental confusion, and loose stools. Her most current vital signs are 118/60, 88, 18, 98.4° F (37.4° C). The medical director ordered a post void catheterization, which yielded 100mL of cloudy urine that had a strong odor, and several lab tests on admission. Urine culture and sensitivity results are pending; the other results are shown in the chart.
Chart View Laboratory Test Results:
Complete metabolic panel: Within normal limits except for the following results:
BUN 25mg/dL Sodium 131mEq/L
Potassium 3.2mEq/L
White blood cell count 11,000/mm3
Urinalysis Appearance Cloudy Odor Foul
pH 6.9
Protein Negative
Nitrites Positive
Crystals Negative
WBCs 6 per low-power field
RBCs 3
What condition do the lab reports point toward?
Which assessment findings are typical of an older adult with the condition in Question 1?
Considering her history and laboratory results, what other condition is a possibility?
4.The medical director makes rounds and writes orders to start an IV of D5 ½NS at 75mL/hr. and insert a Foley catheter to gravity drainage. Because M.Z. is unable to take oral medications, the medical director orders ciprofloxacin (Cipro) 400mg q12h IV piggyback (IVPB). Are the type of fluid and rate appropriate for M.Z.’s age and condition? Explain.
While the IVPB ciprofloxacin is being administered, which adverse effects might occur?
You enter the room to start the IV infusion and insert the Foley catheter and find that the nursing assistive personnel (NAP) has taken M.Z. to the bathroom for a bowel movement. M.Z. asks you to help her, and, as you open the door, you observe her wiping herself from back to front. What do you need to do at this time?
Because M.Z. has been having diarrhea, what special instructions should you give the NAP assigned to give basic care to M.Z.?
Case Study Progress:
The next day, you are the nurse assigned to M.Z.’s care. You notice that the NAP emptying the gravity drain is not wearing personal protection devices. You also observe that the drainage port of the drainage bag was contaminated during the process because the NAP allowed it to touch the floor.
What issues need to be considered in protecting M.Z.’s safety? Describe your actions in working with the nursing assistant.
As you assess M.Z., you notice that her catheter tubing is not secured. Why does the tubing need to be secured, and where is the correct place for the catheter tubing?
What changes, if any, will be made to the antibiotic therapy?

Why is it important for an organization to have policies on access privileges, security, disaster planning, and archiving?
Respond to the question with a discussion of points that you can substantiate with resources such as the textbook for this course or any other scholarly resource. Remember to include APA formatted references.

Growth mindset is a concept you can apply in your academics and on the job. It’s also a way to approach day-to-day life. Here are some examples of everyday situations in which you can consciously choose to respond with a growth mindset.
Example 1: Your morning is full of the unexpected. You hit the snooze button too many times, resulting in waking up late for work. As you rush to get out the door to your job, you accidentally spill your coffee and have to take time to clean up the mess. Since you left your home later than usual, traffic is moving at a snail’s pace. A fixed mindset response would be grumbling about your crummy morning. A growth mindset response would be committing to waking up earlier and devising a more effective morning routine.
Example 2: Most people like to be winners, and kids on sports teams are no exception. So when your daughter, who spent tireless hours in the backyard practicing her jump shot, makes 10 out of 15 shots—leading her basketball team in scoring on game day—you can praise her by giving a fixed mindset response or a growth mindset response. A fixed mindset response would be “Great game! You’re a spectacular athlete!” A growth mindset response, by contrast, would be “Great game! Your dedication, practice, and hard work were reflected in your performance tonight.”
In the Discussion forum, share some examples of how you can apply growth mindset in your daily interactions, either in a professional setting or in your academics. Here are some prompts to address if you need some ideas:
How do you handle a new project or task at work, home, or school?
How do you embrace working in groups when you prefer to work independently?
How would you react to your instructor’s suggestion to incorporate a data component into an assignment for your non-math-related course?
What do you do when you don’t understand something that everyone around you seems to have caught on to?
To maintain the pace of your course progress, post your response to the discussion questions during Week 2. Also, to make this discussion interactive, please respond to postings from at least two classmates. Give your classmates positive feedback on their growth mindset response, or offer an example of a time you were in a similar situation and responded similarly or differently, explaining how your response helped you (or not).
