Week 1 discussion

DQ1

Introduce yourself to your peers with a brief professional profile that addresses the following:

What is your specialty area in the program (i.e., Nurse Informaticist, Nurse Administrator, or Nurse Educator)?

THIS IS IMPORTANT—we need to know what your specialty is to help you with your project.

Tell us something unique about you, so we can get to know one another and develop our learning community.

Spend some time reading the profiles of your classmates and respond to them.

Submission Details:

Post your response to the Discussion Area by the due date assigned. Respond to at least two posts by the end of the week.

DQ2

To complete this week, after reading chapter one in Melnyk and reviewing the lectures you need to consider the topic of interest to you. List a ONE to two-word topic that you want to explore further and why you are interested in this topic. This topic encompasses the question that you have been generating throughout your program.

As an example I may choose the topic of depression, as I am interested in all of the depression I am seeing in the primary care office. Next week I will explore the background of this topic and this will lead to my PICOT question.

As you work on your capstone project proposal, you will want to share your progress with your peers and instructor and seek or provide guidance or share insights. By the due date assigned, go to the Discussion Area and post responses to the discussion question. All responses should be posted to the appropriate topic in this Discussion Area. It is important to support what you say with relevant citations in the APA format from both the course materials and outside resources. Include the South University online library in your research activities utilizing not only the nursing resource database, but also those pertaining to education, business, and human resources.

Supporting one—Challenging one.

By the end of the week, comment on the responses of at least two other students by supporting a minimum of one post and challenging a minimum of one post. You will want to focus on their point of view, asking pertinent questions, adding to the responses by including information from other sources, and respectfully challenging a point of view, supported by references to other sources. Be objective, clear, and concise. Always use constructive language. All comments should be posted to the appropriate topic in this Discussion Area.
