Discussion: M09 Discussion Board #5

 Part #1:

How good are your listening skills?  Do you think this is an important skill to have when working in a healthcare environment?  What are some ways in which you could improve your listening skills?  (You can refer to Module 8 and review the reading materials if you need some guidance)

Part #2

Do you struggle with test anxiety?  Please be aware that many of you will be required to take some type of state or national certification/board exam upon completing your individual healthcare program.  If you do struggle with test anxiety this is a good time to develop skills to assist you in your test taking abilities.  List a few things you do, or could do to combat test anxiety.  (You can refer to Module 9 reading and video if needed)

Responses can be typed in Microsoft Word and then pasted into the IvyLearn discussion board, or simply type it in the Discussion Board.   Click “reply” to start your own entry/post in the discussion board, then click “post” to submit the response.  This is due by Wednesday at midnight. Make sure you reply to at least two other class members posts by Sunday at midnight. Your replies need to be at least 3-4 sentences in length. For example, indicate whether you agree or disagree with their opinion, have something in common or made a connection to their posting. Replies must be respectful and well thought out.  Be sure your peer responses further the discussion in some way and do not just simply state whether you agree or disagree.
