creative thinking

In times past I have asked nursing students to identify with a commercial - I've received comments like Zoom, Zoom, Zoom (Mazda speeding through country side seemed to relate to zooming through nursing class).

Other ideas were "You've come a long way, baby" as students were getting ready to graduate and lastly "You can do it!!!"

I love it when students step out of themselves, use their imagination and have some fun. "Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, oh, what a relief it is" was one I could relate to as I was completing graduate school.

Let me know commercials that can relate to you.

Nursing at Whatcom

Hi, My name is Connie. I've been a nurse for over 40 years (of course, I was a child when I entered nursing school) - and I wanted to share some experiences about nursing and being a teacher.

Nursing has been my passion since I tried to give my first pet "a shot" and it remains my passion today.

I'll be making entries now and then when something funny happens or when I have an inspiration.

Hope you enjoy my blog.
