THEORY
Write and turn in a draft of conceptual (theory Section). In this homework you will start working on the “conceptual model” part of your airport paper. The idea is to develop an argument that helps explain the change in airport size over time. Things you may want to do: Have a look at the trend graph you obtained in first homework. Are there any major breakdowns? When did they happen? What happened? etc. It may also be elpful to search more about your airport and find out if there is anything unique about the airport or about the place that it’s located. Try to bring what you know about your airport together with the changes in passenger traffic to come up with a conceptual model. You can do a scholar.google.com search for economics articles on firm size, airport size, growth, etc. to get an idea on how to do it.
Most of the factors that explain size and growth of airports can be thought of and presented using simple supply and demand. For example, increases in income are rightward shifts in demand, major construction projects are rightward shifts in supply. In your background review you may have identified other factors that are germane. Try to think of them in economic terms. You in essence are explaining the quantity that results from an underlying economic model.

Order Description

The Four Metaparadigms: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on the basic four metaparadigms/concepts of patient, nurse, health, and environment.

Two Practice-Specific Concepts: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on at least two other concepts specific to your own practice.

List of Propositions: A numbered list of at least five propositions or assumption statements that clearly connect the concepts described.

Consider the following questions as you complete your various tasks related to this assignment.

1.

How do I define and employ the four basic metaparadigms of nursing theory in my professional practice?

2.

What are the major concepts I employ that are unique to my professional practice?

3.

What philosophies and theories from the literature of nursing and other disciplines/domains are consistent with these concepts?

4.

How are the concepts of transcultural nursing, the health promotion model, skill acquisition, role theory, and change theory specifically integrated into my philosophy and practice?

5.

What research supports these theories and concepts?

6.

How do I integrate role and change theory into my professional practice and how may these theories be applied to the organization in which I practice?

The paper is to be thoroughly researched and well documented, with relevant material from the nursing theorists presented incorporated into the paper. Use the current edition of the APA Manual throughout the paper. Sources should focus on references from nursing theory but may also include conceptual and theoretical material from other professional domains. The paper, excluding references or appendices, is to be limited to 6-10 pages. Writing should be succinct and well organized, as it is impossible for the facilitator to evaluate form and content separately.

Your philosophy/framework is to be given a title that is appropriate to its content and emphasis.
