Learning Material              : “How to be a good nurse?” article
                                             “How to prepare nurse interview” article

Reading Material: The student will be given an article titled “How to be a good nurse”. From the article, in language, the learners may learn new vocabulary and simple tenses. Both we need in improving their reading comprehension skills. In social context, learners will learn some characteristics of being a good nurse. I think that this lesson will be great for a nurse. Article related to their profession or healthy issues must be interesting for them. After reading class, they will get two benefits, 1) skill in reading comprehension, 2) new information.

Speaking Material: In speaking section, the first thing, I would like to teach is about list of nurse interview. The goals are to recognize question prediction in nurse interview and how they should answer to get nice impression. It will be used when they apply in a healthy centre or hospital. Interview is a must in recruitment processes. In pair, they will act like an interviewer and interviewee. After see a video about “Nurse Interview and read list of question”, they will perform in front of the class without any text. They are acting in real situation. I think it will be something that useful and enjoyable for them.
Example of Great Lesson:
Reading article
  1.  A great nurse is compassionate. Compassionate is defined as the feeling of concern and sympathy for others. We need to remember that our patients, apart from cosmetic work or delivering babies, are generally not in the healthcare setting because they want to be. They are fearful and at risk of losing their health, possibly their lives, and concurrently, those visitors with them may be at risk of losing precious loved ones. They are not in control and are frightened, and they need us for support. This also means that we are consummate advocates for the patient and willing to speak up when we do not feel the environment is as safe as it can be.
     
  2. A great nurse is empathetic. Empathetic is defined as the ability and willingness to share in the feelings of others. It does not mean that we agree with the patient or completely understand what they are going through. It simply means that we are willing to make a concerted effort to listen to them, to put ourselves in their place and to attempt to understand their challenges. This needs to be done without judgment and with the understanding that everyone has their own set of values and their own life experiences that have brought them to this point.
     
  3. A great nurse is selfless. Selfless is defined as the ability to give to others at the expense of themselves. I have countless stories of nurses over the years that illustrate this ability to give to others. This could be as simple as missing lunch to hold a patient’s hand or to do something extraordinary for someone else. I had one trauma nurse I will never forget who was caring for a homeless man hit by a car. When the patient was being discharged back to the street, the nurse realized that his shoes were not removed during the trauma because he did not own any. His foot size was the same as the patient’s, so he gave him his shoes and wore shoe covers for the rest of the day. I felt that this was a tremendous example of selflessness. We recognized him as an everyday hero. The stories go on and on and we need to celebrate them when they happen.
     
4.      A great nurse is self-aware. Self-aware is defined as a high degree of emotional intelligence. We are more effective in anything that we do when we understand ourselves, the way we think, and where our values are in reference to others as well as our personal strengths and limitations. Having 15 years of Emergency experience taught me a great deal about myself. There were situations where I felt extremely vulnerable and ineffective, such as dealing with abuse or trauma of small children that basically rendered me emotionally distraught for some time after the events. In that situation, I needed to learn coping mechanisms to deal with the situations or needed the support of my colleagues to trade with me or help me when those times got tough. We all need to support and help each other get through our tough days. (source:nursearticlecolections/electronicsource)

Note: After reading this article, the student may find the difficult word. List of new vocabulary helps them to comprehend this article. They can get the meaning from dictionary or even guessing meaning technique. In comprehending process, learners are asked to tell to other student why they have to have these characteristics, and what benefits they can get if they have these characteristics. They are allowed to make a concept before speak up.

They have to listen to the answer of the nurse candidate. Secondly, after they understand what question is, they have to concept their own answers. It must be impressive and logically. With pair, they will come to the front and act like a real situation of interview on video. One becomes an interviewer and one become interviewee. They are not allowed to bring any text.

4.      A. When should one do needs assessments? Assessment of needs must be conducted in initializing a course. However as a teacher we always have to watch if their needs increase day by day. 

B. Give comment toward the following statement!  Writing activities can serve a variety of purposes for needs assessment. 1) Writing activities make the teacher can assess the need wholly.  2) The students also can write down what they want honestly. We can say that writing helps us to speak something. 3) The written text can be saved by the teacher for reminding and guiding the teacher in designing material. We can conclude that writing activity must be more effective.
