Reflecting on my experience of the Maternal Newborn ATI Adaptive Quiz, I’d say that I improved in many different categories. First and foremost, I was finally able to increase my average time spent on each question. I got it up to 45 seconds per question. While I would still like to work my way up to over one minute, this is a significant improvement for me over my previous performance. Also, my percent correct went up significantly, by almost a…
Reflecting on my assessment of the Medical-Surgical ATI Adaptive Quiz, I would say that I improved in terms of some of my test taking strategies. I made sure to be sure to select only one answer and not change my answer once I selected one. I also only made one mistake of rushing through a question when I knew the correct answer but chose the incorrect one due to too little time spent. However, something I still need to work…

I fell right in between the known average of percent correct at 52%, which was very encouraging for me. Scoring up in the 84th percentile was also another encouraging factor for me. Knowing that I did better than or equal to 84% of the individuals taking this exam sounds promising for the next adaptive…

I’m most excited about being able to finally feel like an independent adult. These past four years have taught me so much, but finally being responsible for a 40-hour a week job in which I’m…
This project was very educational for me and my group. I learned so much about this topic and really began to understand the vitality of it in practice. Seeing such a high rate of readmission due to preventable falls at home was very eye opening for me. It is such a large problem and it felt really good to know that I may have helped decrease this number a little and keep a couple patients safe while at home. The…
Reflection The development of our topic was something we took very seriously because we wanted to pick a topic that had a lot of meaning and had the potential to help a lot of patients and nurses. I, personally, was pretty taken back when the clinical nurse educator told my group that readmission due to falls at home were a big issue she was seeing! It seems like such a simple topic to cover during discharge, but apparently some wires…
