Your assignment for this discussion post is to research your future career by answering all of the following questions:<\/p>\n
What board exams do you need to pass to become a Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT)? (Hint: https:\/\/www.nbrc.org\/examinations\/)
\nWhat specialty credentials can you receive once you have earned your RRT?
\nThrough what agency do you obtain your respiratory care practitioner license in Texas? (Hint: http:\/\/www.tmb.state.tx.us\/page\/licensing-respiratory-care-practitioner)
\nWhat requirements must you meet to maintain your Texas license?
\nChoose another state. Compare the requirements to obtain an RT license in Texas with another state.
\nIn what settings\/areas can RTs work?
\nLook up job requirements for current open RT positions. What are typical job requirements?
\nIn your research, did you find that more jobs are hiring CRTs or RRTs?
\nWhat areas interest you? In what setting do you see yourself working and why?<\/p>\n
Your answer should be at least 8 sentences long and written in paragraph form. Do not just list the answers to the questions or rewrite the questions and answers below. Your submission should be written in an essay-style format.
\nYour post must be written in complete sentences, using proper grammar and correct spelling.
\nYour answer should be original and written in your own words (no plagiarism).
\nYou must include at least one reference from a reputable website or journal (Wikipedia will not be accepted) in addition to the links provided. Be sure to cite your references at the bottom of your assignment.
\nNo more than 20% of your assignment should be a direct quote from one of your sources (1 sentence for every 8 sentences).
\nWhen using a sentence or idea directly from a source, it should be written in quotation marks, and credit should be given to the author.
\nFor example, a direct quote should be written in the following manner:
\n Jessica Ramirez stated in her article, \u201cNo cheating is allowed in RSPT 1201\u201d.<\/p>\n
Part 2 (25% of your grade)<\/p>\n
Respond to two (2) of your classmates’ initial posts. (Each response is 12.5% of your grade.) — Be sure to respond to initial posts and not to other replies.
\nEach response must be at least 4 sentences in length.
\nEach response must be meaningful and insightful. Do not just write “I agree” and push submit.
\nEach response must be written in complete sentences, using proper grammar and correct spelling.
\nIf you use information to back your opinion, cite your references at the bottom of your submission.
\nRemember: A substantive response is a response to the question in complete sentences that (1) clearly supports a position, (2) begins a new topic, (3) or somehow adds to the discussion by critically reflecting on what is being discussed or (4) moving the discussion in a new direction. You must provide the “why” or “how” reply. Just because you agree is not a substantive response. You must provide “substance” of why or how you agree.<\/p>\n
Plagiarism is strictly forbidden. Refer to the Academic Dishonesty section in the Student Handbook.<\/p>\n
Make sure to check your work. Points will be deducted for improper grammar and many spelling errors. <\/p>\n
During online discussions, students with differing opinions must be respected even if you disagree with those opinions.
\nFoul or obscene language, flaming, personal attacks, lack of consideration for diversity, racist, sexist, ageist, or other unacceptable language will not be tolerated during discussions or at any other time. Students who engage in such behavior will be locked out.
\nUse proper \u201cnetiquette\u201d when participating in the online classroom. Some rules of \u201cnetiquette\u201d include:
\nBe Friendly, positive, and self-reflective.
\nUse proper language and appropriate titles in your response. Do NOT use texting abbreviations or slang. (For example, the word “you” should be used, not “u”.)
\nUse effective communication \u2013 read and re-read before posting.
\nPlease ask for clarification if you do not understand a question or response.
\nAlways be respectful of others and their privacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
