Week 5 Discussion: Evidence-Based Teaching in Nursing & Becoming a Scholar in Nursing Education

/in /by

 

There are two parts to this discussion.  The first is to consider scholarship in nursing. The second is to reflect on your MSN education to date.

Initial Post:

Part 1: Briefly discuss what is described in Chapter 20 as ” the scholarship of teaching in nursing.”  What is the difference between scholarship in teaching in nursing and scholarly teaching? How will you demonstrate scholarship in your nursing practice and future career in education? How can you best prepare for it?

For your references, review Teaching in Nursing and the Role of the Nurse Educator, Chapters 19 and 20 and find an additional professional nursing source. 

Part 2: You will soon be taking the capstone course and graduating with a master’s degree in nursing. Reflect on what you have learned in your education and leadership courses thus far. How has your understanding of the educator and leadership roles in nursing changed?  What has impacted you the most?  How do you envision using this information and/or degree in your career? What would you like to learn more about through additional formal or informal learning?

EVIDENCE-BASED PROJECT, PART 4: RECOMMENDING AN EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE CHANGE

/in /by

EVIDENCE-BASED PROJECT, PART 4: RECOMMENDING AN EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE CHANGE

The collection of evidence is an activity that occurs with an endgame in mind. For example, law enforcement professionals collect evidence to support a decision to charge those accused of criminal activity. Similarly, evidence-based healthcare practitioners collect evidence to support decisions in pursuit of specific healthcare outcomes.

In this Assignment, you will identify an issue or opportunity for change within your healthcare organization and propose an idea for a change in practice supported by an EBP approach.

To Prepare:

· Reflect on the four peer-reviewed articles you critically appraised in Module 4, related to your clinical topic of interest and PICOT.

· Reflect on your current healthcare organization and think about potential opportunities for evidence-based change, using your topic of interest and PICOT as the basis for your reflection.

· Consider the best method of disseminating the results of your presentation to an audience. 

The Assignment: (Evidence-Based Project)

Part 4: Recommending an Evidence-Based Practice Change

Create an 8- to 9-slide 
narrated PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:

· Briefly describe your healthcare organization, including its culture and readiness for change. (You may opt to keep various elements of this anonymous, such as your company name.)

· Describe the current problem or opportunity for change. Include in this description the circumstances surrounding the need for change, the scope of the issue, the stakeholders involved, and the risks associated with change implementation in general.

· Propose an evidence-based idea for a change in practice using an EBP approach to decision making. Note that you may find further research needs to be conducted if sufficient evidence is not discovered.

· Describe your plan for knowledge transfer of this change, including knowledge creation, dissemination, and organizational adoption and implementation.

· Explain how you would disseminate the results of your project to an audience. Provide a rationale for why you selected this dissemination strategy.

· Describe the measurable outcomes you hope to achieve with the implementation of this evidence-based change.

· Be sure to provide APA citations of the supporting evidence-based peer reviewed articles you selected to support your thinking.

· Add a lessons learned section that includes the following:

· A summary of the critical appraisal of the peer-reviewed articles you previously submitted

· An explanation about what you learned from completing the Evaluation Table within the Critical Appraisal Tool Worksheet Template (1-3 slides)

Where can you find evidence to inform your thoughts and scholarly writing? Throughout your degree program, you will use research literature to explore ideas, guide your thinking, and gain new insights. As you search the research literature, it is important to use resources that are peer-reviewed and from scholarly journals. You may already have some favorite online resources and databases that you use or have found useful in the past. For this Discussion, you explore databases available through the Walden Library.

Discussion post ( question to answer)

Using proper APA formatting, cite the peer-reviewed article you selected that pertains to your practice( PHMNP) area and is of particular interest to you and identify the database that you used to search for the article. Explain any difficulties you experienced while searching for this article. Would this database be useful to your colleagues? Explain why or why not. Would you recommend this database? Explain why or why not.

This assignment and the following two months' work should be written related to your

previous writing. You should not change the stories. Then I will lose the points(scores). If

you talked about improvement of patient flow in the urgent care setting, your next

writing should be something similar with the previous style. I mean you should not write

about totally different topics like cancer patient management or something like that. If

you have any questions, you can ask me. I can give you enough time to complete it. One

week for this job.

Pls read your previous writings. Keep these links unless you remember about your

previous writings.

Week 4: Change Project Rough Draft

2

This week, you will bring together all of the assignments you have completed thus far,
and compose the rough draft of your change project paper. At this point, you will have
submitted each section and received feedback. An attempt to incorporate all previous
assignment feedback should be evident. 
Your rough draft contains all of the expected
components of the final draft and is presented in APA format including a cover page,
references, and appendices when warranted. Your rough draft is your opportunity to
polish previously submitted assignments and combine the sections in a comprehensive
paper that show your change project is ready to be implemented.

You will take this time to identify and address any weaknesses or gaps in your change

project. Your rough draft should only require minor revisions before the final paper.

Your paper should be between 20 and 30 pages in length, not including the cover page,

references, and any appendices. It must follow the current APA manual style and

format. Each section of the paper should be clearly identified using proper headings.
