Learning Assessment System Assignment

Assignment 2: Learning Assessment System Assignment

Being able to identify proper research literature is primary to developing your end of program capstone project.
Tasks:
Access Argosy’s electronic library databases and conduct a search for nursing research literature that is relevant to your anticipated capstone focus. Develop an annotated bibliography of this literature and identify two research articles, one qualitative and one quantitative, that are specific to your capstone focus.

  1. The annotated bibliography should consist of no fewer than 10 research articles and should broadly represent the literature available that is related to your capstone focus.
  2. Select one article that is a report of qualitative nursing research and one article that is a report of quantitative nursing research.
  3. Analyze and state the differences between the two chosen articles using the listed components on the Research Article Analysis form provided (i.e., problem statement, purpose, research objectives).
  4. Your final product should include the annotated bibliography, a completed Research Article Analysis Form, and a narrative (1–2 pages) in which you differentiate between the two types of research and explain the importance of both types in evidence-based nursing practice.

Note: For the annotative bibliography, the 10 articles need to be listed in alphabetical order and all key ideas need to be summarized and evaluated. Articles used for the Research Article Analysis Form should be clearly identified using APA format and including the database source.
Submission Details:

  • By the due date assigned, post your responses to the Submissions Area. Support your findings with examples and scholarly references. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M7_A2.doc.

You are to create a Design for Change proposal inclusive of your PICO and evidence appraisal information from your Capstone Project

Question description
 

Purpose

You are to create a Design for Change proposal inclusive of your PICO and evidence appraisal information from your Capstone Project Milestone #1. Your plan is to convince your management team of a nursing problem you have uncovered and you feel is significant enough to change the way something is currently practiced. In the event you are not currently working as a nurse, please use a hypothetical clinical situation you experienced in nursing school, or nursing education issue you identified in your nursing program.

Directions

1.  Create a proposal for your Design for Change Capstone Project. Open the template in Doc Sharing. You will include the information from Milestone #1, your PICO question, and evidence appraisal, as you compose this proposal. Your plan is to convince your management team of a nursing problem you have uncovered and you feel is significant enough to change the way something is currently practiced.

2.  The format for this proposal will be a paper following the Publication manual of APA 6th edition.

3.  The paper is to be four- to six-pages excluding the Title page and Reference page.

4.  As you organize your information and evidence, include the following topics.

a.  Introduction:Write an introduction but do not use “Introduction” as a heading in accordance with the rules put forth in the Publication manual of the American Psychological Association (2010, p. 63). Introduce the reader to the plan with evidence-based problem identification and solution.

b.  Change Plan: Write an overview using the Johns Hopkins Nursing EBP Model and Guidelines (2012)

  i.  Practice Question

  ii.  Evidence

  iii.  Translation

c.  Summary

5.  Citations and References must be included to support the information within each topic area. Refer to the APA manual, Chapter 7, for examples of proper reference format. In-text citations are to be noted for all information contained in your paper that is not your original idea or thought. Ask yourself, “How do I know this?” and then cite the source. Scholarly sources are expected, which means using peer-reviewed journals and credible websites.

6.  Tables and Figures may be added as appropriate to the project. They should be embedded within the body of the paper (see your APA manual for how to format and cite). Creating tables and figures offers visual aids to the reader and enhances understanding of your literature review and design for change.

venous catheters related infections )

My assignment is divided into 3 parts: Milestone # 1, 2, 3
Topic ( venous catheters related infections ) because this project is divided into three parts. The first attachment is 5 systemic reviews and we have to pick one And base our milestone project on it.
Capstone Project consists of the development of a hypothetical nursing-focused change plan. You will begin the project by determining a problem or opportunity in your professional setting that incorporates evidence-based practices and establish an improvement plan with proposed interventions and outcomes that could be presented to management for implementing change. This is a hypothetical change plan; therefore, actual implementation and measurement is not expected during the eight weeks of this course. However, you should create your change plan with the intent of implementing it in the future within your professional setting. If you are currently not working as a nurse, choose a change plan geared toward a past nursing situation, either something you learned in nursing school or when you were working as a nurse. The Capstone Project is divided into three milestones.
• Milestone #1 is due at the end of Week 3.
• Milestone #2 is due at the end of Week 4.
• Milestone #3 is due at the end of Week 6.
The guidelines and rubrics for all of the milestone assignments can be found in the Course Resources section of the Resources page under Course Home. Each assignment builds on the previous one, so it is recommended that you review all of them before beginning in order to gain insight into where you are going. Now is not too soon to begin w

PICOT-the entire statement, not just a breakdown of each component!!—-If I do not get the actual PICOT statement, you will lose significant points!!

In this assignment, students will pull together the change proposal project components they have been working on throughout the course to create a proposal inclusive of sections for each content focus area in the course.

Students will develop a 1,250-1,500 word paper that includes the following information as it applies to the problem, issue, suggestion, initiative, or educational need profiled in the capstone change proposal: –each of these areas are on the Rubric, which means I will be looking for each piece to grade!

  1. Background (Introduction and Thesis Statement-as the author, what is your purpose for the paper, what are you planning to cover or address???)
  2. Problem statement—-this is not your PICOT ( you state that a little further down)
  3. Purpose of the change proposal- why do you think the change needs to happen based on the problem you identified.
  4. PICOT-the entire statement, not just a breakdown of each component!!—-If I do not get the actual PICOT statement, you will lose significant points!!
  5. Literature search strategy employed (GCU Library, CINAHL, PubMed, and such)
  6. Evaluation of the literature- remember that literature evaluation tool you filled out (use that data, but do NOT include that template in the paper!!)
  7. Applicable change or nursing theory utilized— make sure you provide an actual established theory you can cite from.
  8. Proposed implementation plan with outcome measures- what your plan to roll out your proposal?
  9. Identification of potential barriers to plan implementation, and a discussion of how these could be overcome
  10. Conclusion—Comprehensive conclusion for the entire paper! Not at the end of each section like you copied and pasted all of your papers together. This is supposed to be one paper that flows as one paper and not the pasted papers you have done since week 2. All it takes is some minor editing to fit all of your papers into one complete work!! Don’t think you have to start over and don’t overthink this paper, you have already pretty much written it, now turn it into one complete paper!
  11. Appendix section (if tables, graphs, surveys, educational materials, etc. are created) ANY TOOL YOU WOULD USE FOR IMPLEMENTATION OR EVALUATION YOU MUST INCLUDE IN THE APPENDIX. Do not describe what you would use, include the actual tool. This is where I see students lose the most points because they don’t attach any form of Appendix. Think about it this way, if you were ACTUALLY going to present, or implement and evaluate your proposal, what tools would you use to do that? And don’t say there are not any you would use, that will not meet any point expectation for this project.

Review the feedback from your instructor on all of the assignments you have submitted thus far. Use the feedback to make appropriate revisions to the portfolio (Capstone Paper) components before submitting (this is also on the Rubric, Evidence of Revision)

Remember this is your final paper and your pulling it all together, and you are not just copying and pasting each paper together, you are turning this into ONE paper that flows as one paper. You need one all inclusive Introduction, and one all inclusive Conclusion.

Prepare this assignment according to APA Style. An abstract is not required. My expectation is that APA format is not new and should be a non-issue for any of you at this point.

SPELL/GRAMMAR CHECK YOUR WORK BEFORE YOU SUBMIT-THERE ARE POINTS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS!! Also, if there are any errors on the paper that were not cleaned up before you submit, there are point deductions associated here too. This is the last paper you will do for your degree, make it look professional!!!

You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin

**** I will upload my paper down below. Please use the information from that paper to help you work on the final project.
