Create a proposal for your Design for Change Capstone Project.

/in /by

Question Description

Purpose

You are to create a Design for Change proposal inclusive of your PICO and evidence appraisal information from your Capstone Project Milestone #1. Your plan is to convince your management team of a nursing problem you have uncovered and you feel is significant enough to change the way something is currently practiced. In the event you are not currently working as a nurse, please use a hypothetical clinical situation you experienced in nursing school, or nursing education issue you identified in your nursing program. 

Directions

1.  Create a proposal for your Design for Change Capstone Project. Open the template in Doc Sharing. You will include the information from Milestone #1, your PICO question, and evidence appraisal, as you compose this proposal. Your plan is to convince your management team of a nursing problem you have uncovered and you feel is significant enough to change the way something is currently practiced.

2.  The format for this proposal will be a paper following the Publication manual of APA 6th edition.

3.  The paper is to be four- to six-pages excluding the Title page and Reference page.

4.  As you organize your information and evidence, include the following topics.

a.  Introduction:Write an introduction but do not use “Introduction” as a heading in accordance with the rules put forth in the Publication manual of the American Psychological Association (2010, p. 63). Introduce the reader to the plan with evidence-based problem identification and solution.

b.  Change Plan: Write an overview using the Johns Hopkins Nursing EBP Model and Guidelines (2012)

  i.  Practice Question

  ii.  Evidence

  iii.  Translation

c.  Summary

5.  Citations and References must be included to support the information within each topic area. Refer to the APA manual, Chapter 7, for examples of proper reference format. In-text citations are to be noted for all information contained in your paper that is not your original idea or thought. Ask yourself, “How do I know this?” and then cite the source. Scholarly sources are expected, which means using peer-reviewed journals and credible websites.

6.  Tables and Figures may be added as appropriate to the project. They should be embedded within the body of the paper (see your APA manual for how to format and cite). Creating tables and figures offers visual aids to the reader and enhances understanding of your literature review and design for change.

Assignment based on Milestone #1 attached. 

“Literature Evaluation

/in /by

Question Description

Details:

In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. Being able to articulate the information and successfully summarize relevant peer-reviewed articles in a scholarly fashion helps to support the student’s ability and confidence to further develop and synthesize the progressively more complex assignments that constitute the components of the course change proposal capstone project.

For this assignment, the student will provide a synopsis of eight peer-reviewed articles from nursing journals using an evaluation table that determines the level and strength of evidence for each of the eight articles. The articles should be current within the last 5 years and closely relate to the PICOT statement developed earlier in this course (see attachement). The articles may include quantitative research, descriptive analyses, longitudinal studies, or meta-analysis articles. A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project. Use the “Literature Evaluation Table” resource to complete this assignment.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Ethical Issues in Cyberspace: 

Many experts believe the most important and critical issue facing cyberspace and the internet is the lack of ethics among cybersecurity professionals. There are several areas where cybersecurity professional fall short, often leading to the loss of jobs, personal and professional reputation, and in some cases criminal prosecution. However, sometimes there is a difference between what is “legal” and what is “ethical”. Discuss specific ethical issues facing cybersecurity professionals. Develop a

testable hypothesis regarding the similarities and differences between ethical and legal conduct by cybersecurity professionals. Discuss laws that are applicable for cybersecurity professionals. Discuss the development of rules of ethical conduct for cybersecurity professionals, and the effectiveness of such rules.

In your section of analysis: reflect on the governance of Cyberspace and Ethical Issues, and point out the effects that the Internet of Things (IoT) has on the personal information and data security of the user.
