What can be an enhancement to a nursing program? Such as a certain club or activity or project that nursing students can do that is an original idea and not something already included in nursing programs. EXAMPLE: A journalism student might propose that the department host a “Newsroom Daily” optional Saturday event for students. The faculty would set up a mock web publication newsroom at the college. They would invite volunteer reporters, news editors, web editors, photographers and layout designers from local media outlets to staff the mock newsroom. Students would spend a Saturday trying out the reporting and specific editing roles as the group simulated covering a major news story. After participating, students would take away a better understanding of specific newsroom jobs and their inter-relation as well as have networking opportunities with local media companies. The media volunteers would enjoy a chance to “pay it forward” and recruit potential interns

Mr Robert is working as the head of the accounting department in HARDA Limited for a decade. HARDA Limited wants to move from the legacy system to a new accounting information system. For this purpose, Mr Robert contacted a system professional, Paul Walker. During the initial meeting, Paul reveals that our system analysis team will first examine the old system, such as reviewing key documents and observing the workers perform their tasks.

We get a modified version of the old system. Paul Walker is still strict with his opinion and says that I can guarantee you that this will not happen again. As a system analyst, I need a proper understanding of the old system. What is working…
