1 N804 EVIDENCE BASED PRACTICE COURSE OVERVIEW Developed byJanetJones DNS

2 COURSE INFORMATION  Course Information includes:  Course Syllabus  Course Syllabus Addendum  Course Schedule  Group Guidelines  Instructor Office Hours

3 COURSE SYLLABUS  Summary of Course Objectives:  Analyze various research designs  Evaluate human subject protection  Differentiate different types of qualitative, quantitative, & mixed methods’ designs  Discuss relationship between design, data collection, & data analysis  Compare scholarship models for administration, safety, quality improvement, & clinical  Critique various research designs  Apply the PICOT process to advanced nursing practice

4 COURSE SYLLABUS  Required Textbooks:  Polit, D.F. & Beck,C.T. (2016). Nursing research: Generating and assessing evidence for nursing practice. 10 th ed. Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins. ISBN 9781605477084  Hall, H.R. & Rousell, L. A. (2013). Evidence-based practice: An integrative approach to research, administration, and practice.

C.: American Psychological Association.

5 COURSE SYLLABUS  Course Outline: Items in the course outline will be covered but not necessarily in the order presented.  Review the outline specifics especially as you prepare for assignments

6 COURSE SYLLABUS ADDENDUM  Assignments: Specifics as to assignments & percentage of total grade are given. Grades are weighted  Participation Requirements: Weekly communication is expected, considering assignments this shouldn’t be a problem  Discussion Board & Written Paper expectations are expanded

7 COURSE SCHEDULE  The course schedule outlines the topics, suggested textbook readings, & assignments.  The schedule reflects when assignments are due.  Due dates may be adjusted based on extenuating circumstances as agreed with faculty prior to the due date.

8 ASSIGNMENTS – Expect something to be due almost every week  Graded Three Discussion Boards (DB):  Introduction & Group Assignments  Practice vs. Research Orientation  Comparison of scholarship models for administration, safety, quality improvement, & clinical

9 ASSIGNMENTS (CONT.)  NIH Training  Complete NIH Training & present certificate  NIH training is required by SLU IRB & some facilities  First step toward DNP Project completion  Demonstrates evaluation of human subject protection  If you have previously completed NIH training you will update that training to be more current

10 ASSIGNMENTS (CONT.)  “How will I know if the evidence I find to support my project is any good?” You will use these processes to critique the evidence.  Group Critiques:  Qualitative  Quantitative Part I  Quantitative Part II  Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis  Clinical Guidelines

11 ASSIGNMENTS (CONT.)  Group Guidelines under Course Information:  Two groups of three and one group of two will be formed  Groups remain intact through semester  Team Leader & Recorder roles are alternated  Team Leader picks evidence to be selected by group for the critique with instructor input  The group should use Google Documents or Word with tracking to write the critique  Recorder submits completed paper in question/answer format using APA style  Discussion Board is used to discuss critique & seek instructor input prior to submission  All participants should review & agree to entire critique (don’t divide up questions)  Peer evaluations are submitted by all participants  Peer evaluations compose 10% of the grade

12 ASSIGNMENTS (CONT)  PICOT Process – the process is broken into 5 parts, which after revision are merged into the final paper. This is the major individual project for this course. The final paper will probably become the Literature Review for your DNP Project, unless you change topics.  PICOT Written Paper Components:  The PICOT question  Literature Review/Search Results  Summary of Findings  Evidence Grid & Journal Impact  Critique/appraise the evidence

13 ASSIGNMENT SUBMISSIONS  The grading rubrics are outlined in the DB description, the group critique forms, and the written paper guidelines in the description on the submission portal – these are the allocation of points  All assignments are submitted via the designated assignment portal  If more than one file needs to be submitted, upload all files then hit the submit button  If problems are encountered with submission, contact the instructor  E-mail can be used for submission if all else fails, but the assignment portal submission process facilitates grading & feedback  Feedback is in the form of feedback comments and feedback files in the gradebook, DB comments, e- mail comments and files  Feedback can be expected during the DB or within 2 weeks of written assignment submissions unless designated otherwise

14 GRADING & FEEDBACK  Discussion Board grades are usually posted in the gradebook by the Monday following closure of the DB  Critique grades are posted as assignment feedback files & comments within 1 week of submission. Tracking in WORD is used to show instructor feedback  Written paper feedback is posted as an assignment feedback file with tracking noting instructor comments within 1 – 2 weeks of submission  Use the feedback tracking comments to make revisions for the final paper submission  Questions regarding grading or feedback should usually be handled as e-mails

15 PROJECT MAP  The map describes the DNP Project as it evolves:  N804 – NIH training & Appraisal of evidence  N803 Project Planning - The project proposal & approval to move forward  N821 Residency I – Comprehensive Project Plan & IRB Approval  N822 Residency II – Project Implementation & Data Analysis  N823 Residency III – Project Evaluation & Dissemination

16 COURSE FLOW  The course has a three phase approach:  Group Critiques: As a group, students critique each major form of evidence to become familiar with the different designs and the critique process prior to beginning the PICOT Process Project. The group process demonstrates intra-professional collaboration.  PICOT Process Project: Individually students select a PICOT question which is usually related to their future DNP project and conduct an appraisal of the evidence. The final paper is dissemination of the results and may later become the literature review for the DNP Project.  Discussion Boards: Primarily address the possible applications of evidence to advanced nursing practice & generate DNP project ideas.

17 CAFÉ CLARIFY  Café Clarify is a DB to be used by any student & residency faculty  All students can see questions & responses  Use this DB for questions on the course, assignments, content clarification etc.  Basically these are questions you would ask in a class that pertain to all participants  Private or individual questions should be sent via text or e-mail

18 FACULTY HOURS/CONTACT  Faculty Profile & Instructor office Hours under Course Information describes hours & contact information  Hammond Campus Office KHS 1009B Monday – Thursday 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM  Online Office Hours – Monday – Friday 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM will respond to e-mail/text in 1 – 2 hrs  Appointments – Flexible regarding mode (face to face or phone conference), date, time & location; arrange via text or e-mail  Prefer e-mail or text – Will respond in 24 hrs on weekdays or 48 hrs during weekends & holidays

19 NETIQUETTE & CIVILITY  Review the link to Netiquette. These principles should be used when communicating with peers, staff, and faculty via the internet  Civility should be used in all communications with peers, staff, and faculty. Basically express your concerns/beliefs in a manner that is not disrespectful of others. Listen. Respond in a professional manner despite the circumstances.

20 GOOD LUCK!!!
