Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

The American Nurses Association lists two standards of clinical nursing practice that relate directly to teaching and learning. Standard 8; Education, states: The nurse attains knowledge and competency that reflects current nursing practice. Standard 10, Collegiality, states: The nurse interacts with and contributes to the professional development of peers and other health providers as colleagues. There is no mention of desire to contribute or to level of educational preparation.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

Classroom teachers may include health-related topics in their lesson plans, for example, the way the normal heart functions or the need for clean air and water in the environment. Although a full-time health professional would be optimal for this district, others can also teach some content. Health based curriculums are available commercially, so there is no requirement that the school district employ a nurse consultant to write the curriculum. The school district can choose curriculum; it does not have to be approved by the state.

Answer to Question 3

Correct Answer: 3

Inferential concepts are indirectly observable and include such ideas as pain and temperature. Rash is a concrete or readily observable concept. Equilibrium and powerlessness are nonobservable or abstract concepts.
