• A student enrolled in an LPN/LVN program states, “I’m fresh out of high school
and living alone for the first time in my life. I’m learning how to take care of
myself as well as learningto care for my patients.” This statement identifies the
student as

• someone who is not accustomed to formal education.
ANS: A

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. Aperson in needed of counseling is commonly a student

, who has been evaluated by the instructor as having areas that need improvement.

• A nursing student states, “I have taken advantage of informal learning

ANS: A
Informal learning experiences are those that take place outside a formal educational
setting. Aperson 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.

• An example of a self-talk “script” that promotes success in a
practical/vocational nursingprogram is:
• “I get sick from smelling bad odors.”
• “What if I’m ‘all thumbs’ in practice lab?”
• “I don’t think the instructor likes me.”
• “I work well with my hands.”
ANS: D
The statement “I work well with my hands” is a positive thought. It focuses on
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.

success in a nursing program?
• Few responsibilities at home
• Motivation to succeed

• Which fear is commonly shared by nursing students?
• Succeeding
• Economic problems
• Failure
• 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 afraidof 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concern; if present, it is usually superseded by fear of failure.

to leave aneducational program without due process?
• Eleventh
• Twelfth

Step: N/AMSC: NCLEX: N/A

• When a nursing student expresses concern about being dismissed unfairly from the
program, the most effective peer response would be:
• “Better get over being so negative.”
• “You have rights under the Fourteenth Amendment.”
• “Watch what you say in class to reduce this possibility.”
• “Instructors really do have control over what happens.”
ANS: B



The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees due process to the student. The learner has
the right todefend 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.
