Tips for Success

This assignment will be graded using the USJ Target rubric. As such, I am not interested in
seeing you merely recount elements of Farmer’s practice and elements of nursing theory. I
already know about what Farmer did and I already know about nursing theory and research. What I’m interested in is seeing you find a particularly interesting conflict (seeCORE rubric) and using the elements of that conflict in an evaluation that arrives as something particularly insightful about how Farmer helps us understanding nursing and/or how nursing theory/research might also help us better understand Farmer. Note that
obvious conflicts and conclusions will be viewed as unsuccessful evaluation I really want to see you push for ideas that are not obvious, ideas that require considerable critical thinking.
