Nurses have sought to understand the art and science of nursing since the time of Florence Nightingale. Six fundamental ways of knowing underpin nursing science. These ways of knowing include: (a) personal, (b) empirical, (c) ethical, (d) aesthetics, (e) emancipatory, and (f) unknowing. Consider how these ways of knowing contribute to knowledge development by addressing the following.
1-Which two ways of knowing have had the most influence on your understanding of nursing science?
2-Which two ways of knowing have you not considered previously and how will these ways of knowing shape your future nursing practice?
3-Provide an example of how nursing science encompassed the six ways of knowing to bridge a gap to improve a healthcare outcome.
I need that each questions would be answer separated and that you use 3 sources not later than 5 years.

If you select Jose for this week’s prompt, discuss the behaviors of hitting his peers or not following the classroom rules. If you select Olivia  for this week’s prompt, discuss the behaviors of impulsivity or addressing her peers negatively.
For your discussion prompt, choose Olivia or Jose and address the following questions:
· How will you approach the situation differently with what you learned about the cultural backgrounds of Jose and Olivia?

Over the course of time, many guidance strategies have emerged in an effort to help us guide children’s behaviors. Choose one of the following guidance strategies to elaborate on: developmental discipline, teacher effectiveness training, collaborative problem solving, positive reinforcement, natural and logical consequences, time-out, or time-away. You may utilize the following recommended resources to help you better understand the guidance strategies; however, please continue to search for additional insight regarding these strategies.

Case Study 3.1 Keflavik Paper Company
Keflavik Paper is an organization that has lately been facing serious problems with the results of its projects.  Specifically, the company’s project development record has been spotty: While some projects have been delivered on time, others have been late. Budgets are routinely overrun, and product performance has been inconsistent, with the results of some projects yielding good returns and others losing money.  They have hired a consultant to investigate some of the principal causes that are underlying these problems, and he believes that the primary problem is not how project are run but how they are selected in the first place.  Specifically, there is little attention paid to the need to consider strategic fit and portfolio management in selecting new projects.  This case is intended to get students thinking of alternative screening measures that could potentially be used when deciding whether or not to invest in a new project.
Questions
Keflavik Paper presents a good example of the dangers of excessive reliance on one screening technique (in this case, discounted cash flow). How might excessive or exclusive reliance on other screening methods discussed in this chapter lead to similar problems?
Assume that you are responsible for maintaining Keflavik’s project portfolio. Name some key criteria that should be used in evaluating all new projects before they are added to the current portfolio.
What does this case demonstrate about the effect of poor project screening methods on a firm’s ability to manage its projects effectively?
Case Study 4.1—In Search of Effective Project Managers
This case involves Pureswing Golf, and illustrates the problems when organizations attempt to locate competent project managers without any systematic plan for identifying and training good potential candidates.  They are discovering that the “voluntary approach,” whereby new project managers are solicited seemingly at random from around the company, simply does not work.  Many of these individuals likely do not have the skills or a reasonable understanding of what it takes to manage projects effectively.
Questions
Imagine you are a human resources professional at Pureswing who has been assigned to develop a program for recruiting new project managers.  Design a job description for the position.
What qualities and personal characteristics support a higher likelihood of success as a project manager?
What qualities and personal characteristics would make it difficult to be a successful project manager?
