Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Assessment is the first step of any teaching session, then diagnosing, planning (goals), implementation, and evaluation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The teaching process focuses on the patient's learning needs, motivation, and ability to learn; writing learning objectives and goals is also included. Nursing and teaching processes are not the same. Assessing laboratory results for high cholesterol and performing nursing care therapies are all components of the nursing process, not the teaching process.
