This is your opportunity to learn the process and perhaps even identify an area of interest. Your choice of a topic for the capstone course should be related to your area of specialty. Each course you take will provide you with the opportunity to investigate theory and empirical literature to identify the relevant evidence you will need to complete this project. In NUR-504, students engage in an EBP group project throughout the course. Group work has benefits and liabilities. Everyone assigned to a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) is expected to participate equally in the work in terms of time and quality of effort. The assignment should be apportioned to make the best use of the strengths of individual team members. Honest communication is critical to effective group work. The best way to avoid conflict is to set very clear expectations at the outset. If a group member does not do what is expected (previously agreed to), the group member should be referred to the original agreement for clarification, rather than engaging in a confrontation that may become personal. At the end of the project, students will have an opportunity to evaluate each other. These peer evaluations will be taken into consideration when grading individuals within the group. Course faculty are able to observe the process in the CLC Forum. If your work takes place outside the forum, this information will not be available. Be certain, even if you communicate via e-mail, phone, or face-to-face, to record the communication in the CLC Forum. EBP Project Outline The outline below includes the key deliverables for the CLC group project. Individual assignments and discussion requirements are provided on the course syllabus. If you have questions after reviewing the course materials, please contact your instructor for clarity.
