NURS 5660 LATEST UPDATED FINAL STUDY GUIDE 2021
Purpose
The process for affecting positive change to improve practice outcomes can start with either the
identification of an area of interest or the identification of a potential or existing practice
problem. Selecting an area of interest helps to define a direction for further inquiry. The purpose
of this assessment is for students to identify and discuss an area of interest specific to advanced
practice nursing. Students will identify a common practice problem related to the selected area of
interest and provide a recommendation to affect positive change. Students will build on this
project in later courses.
Note: The purpose of the MSN project is to translate evidence currently found in the literature
into practice within the chosen specialty track. Due to the research complexity, time involvement,
and implications regarding human subjects, drug studies are not acceptable areas of interest for
an MSN project.
Activity Learning Outcomes
Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:
1. Examine roles and competencies of advanced practice nurses essential to performing as
leaders and advocates of holistic, safe, and quality care. (CO1)
2. Analyze essential skills needed to lead within the context of complex systems. (CO3)
3. Explore the process of scholarship engagement to improve health and healthcare
outcomes in various settings. (CO4)
Due Date:
Assignment should be submitted to the Week 6 Area of
Interest Powerpoint Presentation dropbox by Sunday 11:59 p.m. MST at the end of Week 6. The
week 6 assignment will not go through Turnitin.
This assignment will follow the late assignment policy specified in the course syllabus.
Students are expected to submit assignments by the time they are due. Assignments submitted
after the due date and time will receive a deduction of 10% of the total points possible for that
assignment for each day the assignment is late. Assignments will be accepted, with penalty as
described, up to a maximum of three days late, after which point a zero will be recorded for the
assignment.
In the event of a situation that prevents timely submission of an assignment, students may
petition their instructor for a waiver of the late submission grade reduction. The instructor will
review the student's rationale for the request and make a determination based on the merits of the
student's appeal. Consideration of the student's total course performance to date will be a
contributing factor in the determination. Students should continue to attend class, actively
participate, and complete other assignments while the appeal is pending.
