This is a personal essay about your own life experiences. A personal essay is typically organized in either chronological order or topical order. Chronological order involves telling a story based on how the events in the story took place over time. In other words, simply tell the story as it happened in real life, from start to finish. A topical organizational pattern does not move through time, but instead uses separate paragraphs to address separate topics.

Quality and Cost Measurements
As nurse practitioners continue to expand their role in delivering health care, it is imperative for NPs to provide the data and evidence to demonstrate the impact of NP care on patient outcomes. There are several challenges that advanced practice nurses face to provide quality care and meet productivity goals of an organization. This week it is important to explore the connection of quality care and performance measures. Some questions to consider as we discuss this topic are:
Assignment 2: Practicum Journal and Time Log (Due Week 4)
A vital part of the reflective process is to plan for changes in your behavior.
Somerville & Keeling, 2004.
Being a reflective practitioner enables NPs to identify weaknesses and target professional development in order to address these weaknesses. In turn, this increases the NPs ability to provide the best care to patients and their families. Reflection also affords the NP time to consider communication and their efforts toward creating a culture of mutual support with colleagues, a characteristic that is essential to successful NP practice (Somerville & Keeling, 2004).
Each week you will complete a Journal Entry and Time Log that prompts you to reflect on your Practicum Experiences and how they relate to your Professional Goals and Self-Assessment of Clinical Skills. This week you will begin documenting your Practicum Experiences in your Practicum Journal.

THE PERSONAL ESSAY
ASSIGNMENT
Your first major assignment is to write a personal essay drawn from your own life experiences. A personal essay sometimes called a personal memoir or, simply, a memoir, from the French word for memory is an example of what is sometimes called creative nonfiction. The story a personal essay tells is the story of a real moment in the authors life. It is based on truth.
A personal essay relates an event in the life of a person as that event appears in the mind of an often older and wiser author. A good example of a personal essay is Annie Dillards Death of a Moth, which you wrote about in your second discussion board post. You can use this essay as a model, but you may go in whatever direction you like. The important thing to remember is that there should be some distance between the person who had the experience and the person who is telling the story today (you in the past, and you, today, reflecting on that experience).
This assignment asks you to compose a personal essay that vividly describes a moment or event in your life and explains implicitly or explicitly why that moment or event is significant for you. Your personal essay should be full of relevant detail that helps the reader to see, feel, hear, smell, and perhaps taste what happened to you.
Some of the things that a personal essay should have would include some, if not all of the following:
A clearly identified event (What happened? Who was involved?)
A clearly described setting (When and where did it happen?)
Vivid descriptive details and vibrant language
A consistent point of view (First person)
A clear point (Why does the story matter?)
