From my Prof.This week’s assignments build off of last week and further the foundation for your capstone project. They will help you to:
- Build a thorough literature review based on your rapid appraisal from last week. Use the literature review sample format questions provided in the course materials and
- Choose and describe a nursing (or other discipline’s) theory that supports your intervention. A common error with this assignment is to write about your proposal as if it were a theory (hypothesis). Please review the readings for this week so that you can choose a nursing theory that will make the most sense to support your proposal. (Examples: The theory of planned behavior, the health promotion model, organizational change model)
