Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 4, 6
Principles of the teaching/learning process include how knowledge is organized by the learner, self-motivation and self-efficacy, setting measurable goals, developmental level of the learner, and self-engagement. Time management is not a teaching/learning principle.

Answer to Question 2

4
Dose equivalent tables should be used by the nurse when analgesics or the routes of administration are changed. The nurse should not provide the same dosage of the medication through the intravenous route since this may be too much. Morphine sulfate can be administered through the intravenous route.
