USE HEADING AND SUBHEADINGS APA Format

FYI MY TOPIC IN CAPSTONE IS INFECTION CONTROL

OUR QUESTION SHOULD BE INFECTION CONTROL

The first step of the evidence-based practice process is to evaluate a nursing practice environment to identify a nursing problem in the clinical area. When a nursing problem is discovered, the nurse researcher develops a clinical guiding question to address that nursing practice problem.

For this assignment, you will create a clinical guiding question know as a PICOT question. The PICOT question must be relevant to a nursing practice problem. To support your PICOT question, identify six supporting peer-revised research articles, as indicated below. The PICOT question and six peer-reviewed research articles you choose will be utilized for subsequent assignments.

Use the “Literature Evaluation Table” to complete this assignment.

  1. Select a nursing practice problem of interest to use as the focus of your research. Start with the patient population and identify a clinical problem or issue that arises from the patient population. In 200–250 words, provide a summary of the clinical issue.
  2. Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT question in your selected nursing practice problem area of interest. The PICOT question should be applicable to your proposed capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).
  3. The PICOT question will provide a framework for your capstone project.
  4. Conduct a literature search to locate six research articles focused on your selected nursing practice problem of interest. This literature search should include three quantitative and three qualitative peer-reviewed research articles to support your nursing practice problem.

Note: To assist in your search, remove the words qualitative and quantitative and include words that narrow or broaden your main topic. For example: Search for diabetes and pediatric and dialysis. To determine what research design was used in the articles the search produced, review the abstract and the methods section of the article. The author will provide a description of data collection using qualitative or quantitative methods. Systematic Reviews, Literature Reviews, and Metanalysis articles are good resources and provide a strong level of evidence but are not considered primary research articles. Therefore, they should not be included in this assignment.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are not required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite.

Tell me something about the history, culture, and physical attributes of each of the places you would visit, Try to tell me something you would not expect me to already know. You don’t need to include a map in your response, but make your itinerary clear. Tell me which legs of your travel would be by air, train, car, bus, or bike, where you would stay for extended periods of time, and what you would do. Keep in mind this essay is worth 16 points, so it must be substantial. It needs to be educational.

Instruction:
Review your work from the start of the semester until now. Search for instances in which you used something in your work that you learned earlier in our class. For example, do you work with citations any differently than you did before we did the quotation analysis work in week four? You may notice changes in how you work with sentence structure after we worked on simple, compound, and complex sentences in week seven. You also might notice changes in how you approach or compose a thesis. Additionally, you might pay more attention to creating concise sentences and consider how genres can shape readers’ expectations. Whether you choose to discuss how you support ideas and craft sentences or how you integrate quotations and evaluate an author’s credibility or you discuss other writing skills you further developed in our class, in this assignment I am asking you to reflect on how you transferred what you learned at one time to work you did in our class at a later date. You want to note how the transfer of what you learned changed your writing. This work is meant to help you generate material for your third essay.This assignment has no word requirement beyond asking to you post at least one paragraph.

**Please write in simple Language.**
Material provided below is things we learn or did over the course, and is meant to help you with this assignment. (note: for those weeks that are listed, either is working with the draft of a essay or revision of the essay)
Please let me know if there any question. Thanks.

Chapter 2: Discuss the “Becoming Barbie” video with your discussion group (click the link in the chapter on The Self for this video, or you can find it in the video folder at the bottom of the homepage). Think about how Cindy Jackson would define her own sense of self. In your discussion, concentrate on at least THREE of the following questions: 1). How many “possible selves” do you think she has? 2). How do you think she developed that particular sense of self? 3). How does the American culture and her own self-esteem influence her idea of self? 4). Does she have good self-control? 5). How does Cindy use self-presentation strategies? This video was from the late 1990’s, and Cindy has had even more operations since then. In fact, there is even new male version who—inspired by Cindy’s story—reinvented himself as “Ken”. In our present culture, do you think such surgeries are more acceptable? I’ve heard stories of mothers giving their pre-teen daughter coupons for breast augmentation surgery! How odd is that! If you want to see what Cindy is doing today, please visit her website at http://www.cindyjackson.com/ (Links to an external site.)

Discussion Grading Rubrics

DISCUSSION GRADING RUBRICS

Each student will engage in a discussion board for each chapter and answer a question posed by the instructor regarding material covered that week. Students will leave a minimum of two comments, including an initial comment (up to 8 points) that fully answers that weeks’ question as well as a follow-up comment (up to 2 points) that responds to the initial comment of at least one other group member. My suggestion is to have at least one sentence per point (that is, 8 initial sentences minimum and 2 follow-up sentences minimum). This won’t guarantee you all 10 points, but it is a good rule of thumb. See the last page for a very good discussion example from a prior student!

Discussion Grading Rubrics

INTERPRETATION

GRADING CRITERIA

10 points

Excellent

The comment is accurate, original, relevant, teaches us something new, fully answers the weekly discussion question, and is well written. 10 point comments add substantial learning presence to the course and stimulate additional thought about the issue under discussion. It incorporates both personal knowledge and opinions as well as draws on concepts introduced in the textbook and powerpoint slides to fully justify those personal opinions.

8-9 points

Above Average

The comment lacks at least one of the above qualities but is above average in quality. A 9 point comment makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the issue being discussed. An 8 point comment has grammar and readability issues but is otherwise similar to the 9 point comment

6-7 points

Average

The comment lacks 2 or 3 of the required qualities. Comments that focus only upon personal opinion or personal experience often fall within this category. Personal viewpoints are welcome in discussions, but the comment should also include information relevant to the chapter being discussed. That is, the comment incorporates definitions, theories, or concepts introduced in the book chapter and powerpoint slides. A 7 point comment has better grammar and is more readable than a 6 point comment

4-5 points

Minimal

The comment presents little or no new information and answers only a few of the topics proposed in the discussion. However, 1 to 2 point comments may provide important social presence and contribute to a collegial atmosphere. A 5 point comment has better grammar and is more readable than a 4 point comment

2-3 points

Below average

The comment adds very little value to the discussion, answering only one minor facet of the question. A 3 point comment has better grammar and is more readable than a 2 point comment

0-1 point

Unacceptable

A comment is missing or late (0 points), or adds no value to the discussion, but there the student did write something (1 point). All comments must be made no later than 10:00 pm on the due date to receive even the 1 point

7 CHARACTERISTICS OF A QUALITY ONLINE DISCUSSION POSTING

  1. SUBSTANTIAL: Messages should relate to the subject matter and provide information, opinions or questions about that subject matter. They may relate the subject matter to something personal, but they should remain academic in their focus.
  2. CONCISE: Studies have shown that messages that are several screens long do not get many replies. To write an effective message, attempt to use a single screen if possible. Try to get the point and focus of your message across so that it is clear what you are saying.
  3. PROVOCATIVE: The discussion board is an interactive medium. The more interaction there is between students the better. A good message is one that prompts others to reply or object. A focused and pointed message that produces replies from other learners in that class in moving the discussion forward is having an impact on the learning environment.
  4. HERMENEUTICAL: The discussion board is a place where ideas are interpreted and language is explored. To be hermeneutical is to interpret. A good message should explore, explain, or expand on a concept or connection. The message should not simply state something, but rather expand upon an idea.
  5. TIMELY: A good message appears in the context of similar messages in the message log. If you get on irregularly, your message will appeal late and out of context with what is currently happening on the board. Log on regularly and reply to messages in a timely fashion.
  6. LOGICAL: A good message that is not a question should contain a logical argument. This means is should contain a clearly stated conclusion of thesis supported by premises, reason, evidence or grounds of belief.
  7. GRAMMATICAL: A good, clear, concise message should be well-written and free of typos and sentence fragments.

socw 6361 social policy analysis and advocacy

/in /by

Writing a proposal that functions as a focus of change is a significant part of being a social worker/policy advocate. This is your opportunity to use your advocacy skills to change and improve the lives of others.

In this Assignment, you write a proposal for some form of social advocacy that will seek to change a social, organizational, or legislative policy. The proposal may also involve advocacy for the amelioration of a social problem. The purpose of this assignment is to thoughtfully and thoroughly plan how you will advocate changing a social problem or policy that is of interest to you.

The policy practice/advocacy can take whatever form you wish and can be on any level: agency, community, state, or federal. You will submit a prospectus (3–4 pages) that describes the problem that is being addressed and the expected advocacy activities. You are expected to carry out the activities planned in this proposal and will present on your actions and outcomes in the Week 10 Final Project assignment.

Question

  • Provide a brief synopsis of your social problem and identification of a policy that you submitted in Week 3.
  • Describe the social problem or policy you would like to change, and the specific action you plan take to effect change.

Be specific when describing the social problem or policy you would like to change and address the following:

  • If you selected a policy, when was the policy enacted, by whom, and for what reason?
  • How are you going to work to change the policy/problem (i.e., plan for social advocacy)?
  • How will your efforts address the policy/social problem described?
  • Is continued policy practice/advocacy needed to make a long-term impact? Why or why not?

The prospectus will need to be well researched and written using APA guidelines. Data should come from at least five sources.

Genre: You may select any genre that is discussed in How Writing Works, but it will need to fulfill the RWS305W assignment criteria. Those criteria are discussed in the Tuesday, 11/19, class lecture. They are academic, civic, personal, or professional writing.

Instructions:

  • Read HWW p 464-485. “Developing Style” and “Polishing It Up”
  • Study your literacy narrative, genre analysis, and student proposal to determine which assignment might be interesting to present to a different audience in a different genre.(due 11/20, 10 points)
  • Review How Writing Works to decide which genre might be useful in presenting theinformation of the literacy narrative, genre analysis, or student proposal to a differentaudience (possibly for a different purpose).
  • Collect samples of the genre you will use for your “regenring” project. (due 12/4, 10points)
  • Do a DOCS-V analysis of the samples you have collected to get a good idea of theexpectation of the genre.
  • Write an audience analysis of your new target audience. (due 12/5, 30 points)
  • Create your new assignment using the above information. (due 12/12, 40 points)
  • Write a reflection (or a defense) on why you chose this genre, the purpose of this newtext, why you think it suits your new target audience, why you made the choices you made when you determined the DOCS-V elements of your new assignment. (due 12/12, 40 points)Parameters: You may select any genre that is discussed in How Writing Works; however, the genre you select must fall into the categories of academic, civic, personal, or professional writing.Criteria: The genre information in How Writing Works will be taken into account in grading this assignment. Also, I will consider your stated audience and purpose to determine the assignment’s effectiveness.
