Resources, Learning The materials, activities, and technologies that facilitate the development of student knowledge and skills. Critical Thinking A process that challenges an individual/student to interpret and evaluate information, apply knowledge and experience, make inferences, form conclusions, apply reason, logic and standards in making sound nursing judgments and decisions. Outcome A statement that reflects the achievement of identified goals. Student Learning Outcomes Statements of expectations written in measurable terms that express what a student will know, do, or think at the end of a learning experience; characteristics of the student at the completion of a course and/or program. Learning outcomes are measureable, learner-oriented abilities that are consistent with standards of professional practice. Terms Related to Theory and Laboratory Components of Curriculum necessary for students to use during the program) Activities of Living Activities performed by the client each day to care for his/her own needs, e.g. eating, bathing. Analyze To examine critically, pulling together constituent parts of a problem/situation. Classroom Laboratory Planned simulated learning experiences in which a student can practice nursing skills. Clinical Experiences Planned instructional activities with patients across the lifespan that are sufficient to achieve the student learning outcomes and graduate competencies and are supervised by qualified faculty who provide feedback in support of learning.

Calculation of GPA To determine the grade point average (GPA): Quality points are calculated by multiplying points received for each grade times the units in the course. Continue to repeat step 1 for each course enrolled. Calculate cumulative GPA (CGPA) by adding together the quality points for each course and divide that total by the total number of units/credits for which enrolled.
