1. Working in an ER requires the use of critical analysis and critical thinking when in the position of triaging patients. The nurse must analyze the data collected from each patient, prioritize individual needs presented, then utilize critical thinking skills to anticipate potential complications. Patients are then cared for in the order of highest risk for potential complications to the lowest risk. I would say my most recent use of critical analysis and critical thinking skills was on my last shift as the triage nurse, yesterday.
2. Reading and writing has never been a strong skill that I possess. My comfort level when writing any type of essay is extremely low.
3. I am currently not reading anything.
4. The Outsiders was by far my favorite novel.

My most recent experience with critical analysis and critical thinking was during my internship at a nursing home as a CNA. I was assigned multiple patients and a different partner every day, so we had to figure out the most efficient way to give the best care while adjusting to slightly different styles of patient care we used. My comfort level with writing essays about literature is decent. I struggle when it comes to ideas of what to write about and I hope to improve on this skill. Currently, I am reading a book called "Mistakes were made" when I have free time. My favorite creative text would have to be a book called "One Last Stop" By Casey McQuiston. It's a romance novel with a touch of sci-fi.

My most recent experience with critical analysis and thinking was when I was drafting a proposal to my apartment complex’s management office to request EV charging. Specifically when going through recent legal documents to find out exactly how I should frame the request so that it was least likely to be ignored and denied.
I enjoy writing in theory, like making the outline and gathering all my points and topics, but when it comes to stringing them all together I lose interest, I think it stems from being more of a fan of speaking and having slightly more flexibility in spoken words as opposed to a written in ink paper.
I am currently working through reading through various Homeric Hymns
My favourite creative genera of creative texts would have to be greek mythology, more specifically probably the Illiad.

Why doesn't the poll have an option to reply "yes" for both? I love reading and writing. Quote: 1. What is your most recent experience with critical analysis and critical thinking? I'm in a writing group where we do a lot of character analysis, so I suppose that would be my most recent one that's relevant to this course. Quote: 2. This is an intensive writing course. What is your comfort level with writing essays about literature? I do this in my free time for fun, so I'm very comfortable with doing this. It's often harder to work up the fervor to write about something I'm not especially passionate about, but I am capable and look forward to seeing the material we have to work with. Quote: 3. What are you currently reading? My writing group has a book club, and I'm still getting through August's book which is Night Watch by Terry Pratchett. I've been really enjoying it; I somehow missed out on his books for most of my life and it's been fun to be introduced to them. Quote: 4. What is your favourite creative text -- such as a novel, memoir, poetry collection...? The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir has become my favorite; I'm patiently awaiting the fourth and final book to be released. word count: 164 not counting quoted text.
