ISBN: 978-0-323-07316-5 Students in the UTPB BSN Nursing Program are expected to have access to all required textbooks and materials used in nursing courses. Nursing courses are designed to build upon the student s growing knowledge base. Students are strongly advised to retain all required textbooks and materials from nursing courses taken in the junior year and senior year for review and reference pending graduation from the program and preparation for the NCLEX EXAM.

Guidelines Lectures: Students should read the textbook and/or other readings as assigned prior to class. Most of the lectures provide expansion of specific textbook topics and guidance on important areas. Face-to-face lectures will be summaries, elaborations on specific topics, and discussion. Attendance/Absences: Your attendance is expected at every class and/or lab and clinical session; attendance will be recorded. This type of course requires participation in all areas for accurate evaluation of performance. Intelligent participation requires that you be prepared for the class. Your attendance is expected at every class and/or lab and clinical. Attendance is necessary to be successful in both the didactic portion and clinical learning experience of students. Students become more proficient in their learning when consistent active participation occurs. Students must attend all classroom and clinical sessions. When emergencies occur that prevent attendance, it is the student s responsibility to inform the faculty. Notifying the faculty and appropriate clinical instructor of an anticipated absence is imperative; failure to do so may result in failure of the course. Notification of a clinical absence must be done by phone call or text to the clinical instructor. Notification of a clinical absence by email is not acceptable and will not be recognized as appropriate and sufficient notification. Excessive absence from class may result in an Administrative drop by the Director of the Nursing Program upon recommendation by the faculty. Classroom attendance will follow the UTPB attendance policy: refer to the UTPB Falcon Guide. (http://ss.utpb.edu/student-life/falcon-student-planner) Computer Skills and Other Requirements: Basic computer skills, ability to use the Internet, and ability to type are required. All assignments must be formatted in Microsoft Word or Excel, using correct APA format or the assignment will be rejected. Submitted work must be saved as a doc or docx file; please do not submit work as a pdf file. Scholastic Dishonesty The integrity of a university degree depends on the integrity of the work done for that degree by each student. The University expects a student to maintain a high standard of individual honor in all scholastic work (Rules and Regulations of the Board of Regents). Scholastic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to cheating, plagiarism, collusion, and the submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a student, or the attempt to commit such acts. Detailed information on scholastic dishonesty along with disciplinary procedures is outlined in the Handbook of Operating Procedures, Part 5, Section 1, and the Student Guide.
