  • Instructions
    Note: The assessments in this course are sequenced in such a way as to help you build specific skills that you will use throughout your program. Complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.
    For your final capstone project submission you will synthesize the work you completed in the previous four assessments. Please make sure that you have made relevant revisions as suggested by your instructor, as well as relevant additions that you uncovered during your practicum experience. The only brand-new content that you will need to create for this assessment is an Abstract and an Introduction.
    This final submission will be graded using the seven program outcomes (POs) for the Master’s of Science in Nursing program. As a reminder they are:

    1. Lead organizational change to improve the experience of care, population health, and professional work life while decreasing cost of care.
    2. Evaluate the best available evidence for use in clinical and organizational decision making.
    3. Apply quality improvement methods to impact patient, population, and systems outcomes.
    4. Design patient- and population-centered care to improve health outcomes.
    5. Integrate interprofessional care to improve safety and quality and to decrease cost of care.
    6. Evaluate the ability of existing and emerging information, communication, and health care technologies to improve safety and quality and to decrease cost of care.
    7. Defend health policy that improves the experience of care, population health, and professional work life while decreasing cost of care.
    8. In addition, you will be assessed on how well you incorporated the feedback you received from your instructor on your previous work in this course via the following criterion:
    • Integrate writing feedback to improve the clarity and quality of final product.
    • You will also be assessed on the completion of hours toward your practicum experience.
    • Demonstrate completion of hours toward the practicum experience.
    • See the scoring guide for specific grading criteria related to these requirements.
      Please carefully review the outline below to see which parts of the final submission will align to which program outcomes. (Note: The bullet points in the outline correspond to the grading criteria from your previous assessments. It may be worth putting in some extra revisions on the material related to criteria on which you did not previously score as well as you would have liked. You may also wish to read the Guiding Questions: Final Project Submission document to better understand how each aspect of your submission will be assessed.) It is important to remember that if you do a quality job addressing the points below, you will meet all of the program outcomes. The alignment is provided for transparency, but do not become preoccupied with how each point will feed into the scoring guide.
