Thanks Michael
A large portion of your power point has been copied from online sources such as mayo.org. Although the sources are on the reference slide there are no citations in the body of your work. Also, some of the information presented (and not cited) was from the American Heart Association-a great source but I want you looking at a pregnant woman and the guidelines are different.
A rule of thumb is that no more than 20% of work should be cited from a source. When I ut your slides into Grammarly up to 90% of many slides were directly copied from websites. This is why points have been deducted. The written assignments are to show me your knowledge and understanding of the material. I need to read your work, not copied work Assignment – Care Of A Patient With Prenatal Complications.
