Group Guidelines

/in /by

Cesar:

-Strengths: organization, time management, has significant interest in topic (renal), consistently meets deadlines

-Weaknesses: group projects, busy schedule, lack creativeness in composing computer presentations.

-Values: appreciates equal workload, timeliness, quality over quantity

-Strategies for successful team functioning: setting deadlines, appreciating each other’s unique talents and perspectives, communication (especially if things do not go well), equal distribution of workload

Rose:

-Strengths: Possesses leadership qualities, dependable, organized, and creative

-Weaknesses: Busy work schedule, different schedule than team members, not computer saavy

-Values: Honesty, hardwork, and respect

-Strategies for team success: Meeting deadlines, respecting other’s ideas, equal workload, interest in topic

-Leadership Style: Democratic leadership style: Involving others in their decisions

-Communication Style: Hopefully, everyone uses an assertive communication style. Having a passive or aggressive communication style will get the group nowhere fast.

 State a team name, letter of your group (A-F), and describe the reason the name was chosen:

Our team name is the ACE inhibitors (B). This name was chosen because we are responsible in providing information about the renal systems.

Meeting time(s) and location(s) for the duration of the semester:

Between nursing 420 and 488 on Wednesday afternoons. Whatever was not taken care of we will meet after nursing 488. We will meet at various locations on campus; classrooms, library, student union, and outside.

Role of each group member (Are there roles? Or delegated tasks?):

Roles have not indefinitely be defined. Each person will pull their weight equally and we will work as a team to get the job done.

Who will lead each meeting? If you will rotate, detail how this will occur?

Each person will contribute to the meeting with no particular leader. Everyone will be encouraged to share their ideas and have an equal input.

Who will take minutes and record action items? If you will rotate, detail how this will occur?

Rose will take minutes and keep track of what is said at each meeting.

What will your process be for dealing with group members who miss meeting or who are late? How will you address first time offense and repeat offenses? Will the discussion happen one-on-one or in a group?

We hope that everyone is responsible enough to meet, however, things do come up and there will be another mode of communication to keep the absent group member updated; email, phone, googledoc, etc. Repeat offenders will be talked to in a group setting.

What will your process be for decision making? If you decide on a consensus vote, what will your process be for making a decision if consensus cannot be reached?

There will be a democratic vote. Everyone will have the right to have an opinion or idea. We will narrow it down to two topics and vote. Two out of three gets the vote. We are not worried that we will not meet a consensus.

What will your process be for dealing with a team member who does not fulfill his or her team assignment(s)? How will you address first time offense and repeat offenses? Will the discussion happen one-on-one or as a group?

Again, we are in hopes that everyone in the group is responsible and respects each other’s times and wishes. A person that does not fulfill their assignment will be talked to in a group setting. We will find an alternative to the student getting the assignment done.

What will your process be for resolving conflict within the group? Will the discussion happen one-on-one or as a group?

Hopefully, there is no conflict. If it is a conflict between two group members than the third does not need to be present. The conflict will be discussed in a professional manner in hopes to resolve it and move on.

Self-Assessment

/in /by
  • Which self assessment did you take?

The self assessment I took was Values in Action Inventory of Strengths (VIA-IS)

  • What were your results?

My results were kindness, bravery, leadership, honesty,spirituality, teamwork, fairness, perseverance, forgiveness, hope, judgment, perspective, social intelligence, love, prudence, creativity, humor, humility, gratitude, zest, curiosity, self-regulation, appreciation of beauty and excellence, and love of learning.

  • What did you learn?

What I learned about me with the results of this quiz was I have some strengths that I   wouldn’t have considered strengths because I thought that was most people had.

  • Do you agree or disagree with your results?

I agree with most of the results but there are some that I believe are not my strengths and are something I can improve on for example kindness was the very first I tend to be kind but I wouldn’t believe it would be my biggest strength.

 

Meal Check

/in /by

Below I have a list of the meals that I ate on Saturday, January 31st, 2015. I found this activity to be very exciting because I enjoy learning about health and fitness. I enjoy eating healthy not only because of its health-benefiting effects, but also because I feel better throughout the day. In addition, I also enjoy working out at the gym regularly and it has been a passion of mine since I was younger. The importance of this assignment focuses on cardiac patients and how they require a cardiac diet in order to live a healthy life. It is important for these individuals to eat meals that are low in fat (fat-free, 1-percent fat), low in cholesterol (less than 13g of saturated fat), low in sugar, low in sodium (less than 2400mg). Aside from these restrictions, it is also necessary to increase fiber, fruits, and vegetables. I have learned a lot from this assignment and I have even made some changes to my own diet. I have even found myself checking nutrition facts and comparing different items with each other. Remember, you only have ONE body!
