  1. Which individual in a practical\/vocational nursing class would be identified as a traditional
    adult learner?
    a. One who has been out of school for many years
    b. One who has children and grandchildren
    c. One who knows the routine of education
    d. One who is in his or her early 20s
    ANS: D
    Traditional adult learners are individuals who come to the educational program directly from
    high school or another program of study. They are usually in their late teens or early 20s. The
    learner who has been out of school for many years and the learner who has children and
    grandchildren would be identified as a returning adult learner. The learner who knows the
    routine of education does not provide sufficient information for classification.

  2. A student enrolled in an LPN\/LVN program states, \u201cI\u2019m fresh out of high school and living
    alone for the first time in my life. I\u2019m learning how to take care of myself as well as learning
    to care for my patients.\u201d This statement identifies the student as
    a. a traditional adult learner.
    b. a returning adult learner.
    c. someone in need of counseling.
    d. someone who is not accustomed to formal education.
    ANS: A
    Traditional adult learners are individuals who are in their late teens or early 20s who have
    come to the practical\/vocational program directly from high school or another program of
    study. A returning adult learner is someone who has been out of school for several years. A
    person in needed of counseling is commonly a student who has been evaluated by the
    instructor as having areas that need improvement. This student is a traditional adult learner,
    and traditional adult learners are accustomed to formal education.

  3. A nursing student states, \u201cI have taken advantage of informal learning experiences.\u201d Another
    student asks, \u201cCould you give me an example?\u201d The best example of an informal learning
    experience is
    a. caring for a disabled family member.
    b. taking a continuing education course.
    c. enrolling in an academic program.

    ANS: A
    Informal learning experiences are those that take place outside a formal educational setting. A
    person who cares for a disabled family member would gain knowledge and skill in providing
    personal care. An education course, academic program, and credited classes all take place in a
    formal educational setting.

    1. What strategy can be used by a nursing student to effectively combat a fear of failure?
      a. Picture in your mind the rewards of succeeding
      b. Positive self-talk
      c. Create a mental script of positive thoughts
      d. All of the above
      ANS: D
      Picturing the rewards of succeeding, positive self-talk, and a mental script of positive thoughts
      all contribute a positive mental attitude and are all ways to combat the fear of failure.

    2. An example of a self-talk \u201cscript\u201d that promotes success in a practical\/vocational nursing
      program is
      a. \u201cI get sick from smelling bad odors.\u201d
      b. \u201cWhat if I\u2019m \u2018all thumbs\u2019 in practice lab?\u201d
      c. \u201cI don\u2019t think the instructor likes me.\u201d
      d. \u201cI work well with my hands.\u201d
      ANS: D
      The statement \u201cI work well with my hands\u201d is a positive thought. It focuses on a strength and
      promotes the expectation that the individual will succeed. All other options are examples of
      negative thinking that create expectations for problems and failure.

    3. Select the factor common to ALL types of adult learners that predisposes them to success in a
      nursing program.
      a. They have few responsibilities at home.
      b. They have the motivation to succeed.
      c. They automatically qualify for financial aid.
      d. They have few daily distractions.
      ANS: B
      The only statement applicable to all types of adult learners is that the majority is motivated to
      succeed. The other factors may be applicable to one or two classifications of learners but not
      to all three.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      1. When a class of nursing students discusses their concerns about their program, the concern
        shared by most learners is generally the fear of
        a. succeeding.
        b. economic problems.
        c. failure.
        d. ridicule.
        ANS: C
        Some degree of fear of failure is nearly universal and often relates to earlier failures or
        setbacks the learner has experienced in other educational settings. Few individuals are afraid
        of succeeding. Uncertainty about economic issues is common among students but is not as
        universal as fear of failure. Fear of ridicule is rarely a concern; if present, it is usually
        superseded by fear of failure.

      2. The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees students the right to
        a. graduate from a program.
        b. fail an academic program.
        c. express oneself in class.
        d. have unlimited absences.
        ANS: C
        The First Amendment provides for freedom of expression as long as what is expressed does
        not disrupt class or infringe on the rights of peers. The remaining options are topics that are
        not addressed by this amendment.

        a. Eleventh
        b. Twelfth
        c. Thirteenth
        d. Fourteenth
        ANS: D
        The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees due process. The learner has the right to defend himor herself if charged with a violation of policy or rules. The Eleventh, Twelfth, and Thirteenth
        amendments do not address due process.

        1. When a nursing student expresses concern about being dismissed unfairly from the program,
          the most effective peer response would be
          a. \u201cBetter get over being so negative.\u201d
          b. \u201cYou have rights under the Fourteenth Amendment.\u201d
          c. \u201cWatch what you say in class to reduce this possibility.\u201d
          d. \u201cInstructors really do have control over what happens.\u201d
          ANS: B
          The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees due process to the student. The learner has the right to
          defend him- or herself if charged with a violation of program policy or rules. The other
          statements are not the most effective responses to give a student concerned with being
          unfairly dismissed.

        2. A nursing student monopolizes class discussions. Which statement about the situation is most
          accurate?
          a. The student is violating the rights of others to participate in class.
          b. The student is demonstrating interdependency with the instructor.
          c. The student is demonstrating passive learning strategies.
          d. The student is at risk for being immediately terminated.
          ANS: A
          The First Amendment provides the right to freedom of speech as long as what is said does not
          disrupt the class or infringe on the rights of other students. In this case, the student who
          monopolizes discussion is violating the right of free expression by others in the class.
          Interdependency involves a student who is actively involved in his or her own learning and
          who has a collaborative relationship with the instructor. A passive learner is someone who is
          not actively involved in his or her own learning. The Fourteenth Amendment assures the
          student due process, meaning that first the student must be charged with a violation and
          presented with evidence of misconduct. The student will be entitled to state his or her case.

          b. \u201cI avoid interacting with instructors.\u201d
          c. \u201cI spend 2 to 3 hours daily surfing the net.\u201d

          Setting goals and working to implement them is a strategy associated with active, self-directed
          learning and will promote success. The other responses refer to behaviors that are not
          conducive to success, such as avoiding the facilitators of your learning (instructors) and
          demonstrating poor time management skills.

          1. Which statement is true regarding the teaching\/learning process in practical\/vocational
            nursing?
            a. If the student fails, the instructor is ultimately at fault.
            b. By asking questions, the student interferes with the instructor\u2019s work.
            c. The student has little responsibility when it comes to evaluation.
            d. The student is responsible for preparing for theory classes and clinical experience.
            ANS: D
            Advance preparation provides a basis for continued learning in the classroom. It provides the
            learner the opportunity to ask relevant questions about theory. Preparation prior to clinical
            experience safeguards patients\u2019 safety. If students fail, it is their own fault; students have
            responsibility for their own learning. A key responsibility of learners is to receive and
            participate in evaluation; it plays an important role in their education and throughout their
            career. Instructors are responsible for creating an environment in which learning can take
            place, and a critical part of this is being available to assist with questions and problems that
            students cannot solve.

          2. A student who wishes to use research findings regarding the best way for students to learn
            will

            b. actively participate in the learning process.
            c. sit passively during each lecture session.
            d. cram before each examination.
            ANS: B
            Studies have shown that people learn best when they are actively involved in their own
            learning and have an interdependent relationship with the instructor. The remaining options
            are counterproductive behaviors.

          3. When explaining the responsibility of the learner to a group of nursing students, a mentor
            should emphasize that the learner\u2019s first priority is to
            a. absorb the knowledge taught by the instructor.
            b. be self-directed and active in the process of learning.
            c. study only what the instructor emphasizes in class.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            d. focus on learning 65% of the information that is taught.
            ANS: B
            Studies have shown that people learn best when they are actively involved in their own
            learning and have an interdependent relationship with the instructor. Absorbing the
            knowledge taught by the instructor describes passive learning. Studying only what the
            instructor emphasizes in class and focusing on learning 65% of the information that is taught
            are approaches that severely limit learning; students must be self-directed and curious in their
            learning.

              c. The learner watches the instructor make a bed.
              d. The learner pays attention during lecture.
              ANS: A
              Active learning requires the learner to gain knowledge and skill by his or her own efforts. A
              learner who participates takes an active role. The other options all describe passive learning

              a. Evaluation lowers learner self-esteem.
              b. Evaluation ridicules student performance.
              c. Evaluation identifies behaviors that stand in the way of meeting goals.
              d. Evaluation informs the learner of things that annoy the instructor.
              ANS: C
              Progression toward goal attainment is identified by evaluation. During the process, behaviors
              that stand in the way of goal attainment are identified, along with strengths of performance.
              Evaluations should not lower self-esteem, ridicule the student, or point out behaviors the
              instructor finds annoying as these will not help the student attain his or her goal.
