Original:
In Michael Carter’s, “Ways of Knowing, Doing, and Writing in the Disciplines.” he talks about the four metagenres: problem solving, empirical inquiry, research from resources, and call for performance. The nursing major at UNE can relate to each of these metagenres. The empirical inquiry metagenre answers “questions by drawing conclusions from systematic investigation based on empirical data” (Carter, 396). Nursing majors are taught about different types of patients and how they react to different types of care based on the different environments they’re placed in. Through doing this, the nursing majors will be using previous data about the different types of care and the reaction of patients to help in their future job and within their clinical work.

This is the goal for the curriculum here at UNE, to prepare student for the real world.
