Question

Capella FP6103 assessment 1

Write a 2-page article about the history of and trends in nursing and nursing education.

The role of the nurse educator has expanded with the times and moved beyond the faculty role in basic nursing education programs. Nurse educators are also staff development specialists, clinical nurse educators, nurse navigators, patient educators, researchers, and community health educators to name a few of the many options available. A multitude of forces beyond our control, including economic and political forces, may shape our profession of nursing. As nurse educators, however, it is our work to provide the educational foundations needed for patient care, for improved health status for all and for a well-prepared workforce of nurses.

Capella FP6103 assessment 2

Create a 2-page plan addressing the scholarship, service, and teaching elements of a specific nurse educator role in a specific context.

When we say we are nurse educators, the image that comes to mind for many is that of a nursing instructor in an undergraduate nursing program. The work that person is engaged in is teaching others how to be nurses. While that is certainly one aspect of the nurse educator role, the setting and the work may vary greatly. Some nurse educators, especially in university settings, will hold joint appointments as nursing faculty in a college of nursing and as clinicians in the university hospital. Other educators will work exclusively in a hospital or community setting, educating staff, patients, or community. Regardless of the setting, the role of educator encompasses more than teaching; there is also an expectation for scholarship and for service.

In this tripartite role, faculty in universities and colleges are expected to teach, participate in scholarly activities, and participate in service, which is defined as activities contributing to the good of the community, university, or profession beyond one’s defined job description. Many health care institutions will also have similar expectations for nurses in upper-level positions.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency 2: Analyze the tripartite role of teaching, service, and scholarship.
Describe a specific nurse educator role.
Analyze the teaching, service, and scholarship expectations for a chosen nurse educator role.
Competency 5: Articulate how nurse educators serve as change agents and leaders to help advance nursing education and nursing practice.
Analyze qualifications in a chosen nurse educator role that facilitate being a change agent.
Competency 6: Develop a plan for engaging in scholarship in an established area of expertise.
Explain opportunities for scholarship related to a specific area of expertise.
Competency 7: Establish a plan for pursuing continuous improvement in the nurse educator role.
Generate a plan for meeting each aspect of the tripartite model.
Competency 8: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with the expectations for a nursing education professional.
Write coherently to support a central idea with correct grammar, usage, mechanics, and APA format and style as expected of a nursing education professional.

Create a short (approximately 2 pages) plan reflecting on how the three aspects of the tripartite model of teaching, service, and scholarship could be met for a particular nurse educator position in a context of interest to you.

In your plan, do the following:

Describe the nurse educator role that your plan addresses, as well as any other pertinent details about that role. Be sure to give the role’s title and explain the context in which that role works.
Analyze the teaching, service, and scholarship expectations for that role as you understand them, and how those expectations fit with the role.
Identify publications, journals, and conferences that could be a fit for the scholarship conducted in this role. Explain the kinds of scholarship that would be a good fit for person in this role and with this expertise.
Generate a plan that could be used by a person in this role for meeting each of the expectations you analyzed.
Analyze additional qualifications that you believe are needed for this role (additional education, certifications, skills, and so on), explaining why they are necessary.
Analyze the qualifications and areas of expertise related to this role that would facilitate serving as a change agent.

Additional Requirements

Your plan should meet the following requirements:

Written communication: Written communication should be free of grammar and spelling errors that distract from the content.
APA format: Use correct APA format, including running head, page numbers, and a title page. Citations and references (if used) are to be in correct APA format.
Format: Submit your assessment as a Word document.
Length: Approximately two double-spaced pages, not including the title page and references page.
Font and font size: Times New Roman or Arial, 12 point.

Capella FP6103 assessment 3

Write a 3–5-page nurse educator philosophy.

As nurses, we develop our own philosophy about our role as a nurse. For some, it is steeped in the tradition of the nursing program we attended. For most of us, our philosophy has evolved over time, as we gain experience and develop specializations. We may not always articulate a clear philosophy, but each nurse does have a system of beliefs and values about health, health care, nursing, and his or her role as a nurse that guides practice. By developing a philosophy specific to the role of nurse educator, you will be able to reflect upon your individual values and beliefs, values and beliefs about nursing, and the educator role that each person is preparing for.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency 1: Analyze the historical evolution of nursing education.
Analyze the influence of historical events on a nurse educator role.
Competency 2: Analyze the tripartite role of teaching, service, and scholarship.
Formulate an informed nurse educator philosophy statement.
Apply a nurse educator philosophy to the tripartite roles of teaching, scholarship, and service.
Competency 3: Analyze professionally established nurse educator competencies and models.
Analyze the competencies necessary for a specific nurse educator role.
Competency 8: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with the expectations for a nursing education professional.
Write coherently to support a central idea with correct grammar, usage, mechanics, and APA format and style as expected of a nursing education professional.

For this assessment, develop your own nurse educator philosophy statement. Identify your beliefs and values regarding the adult learner, learning environment, and teaching strategies and applicable learning theories that you will use as an educator. Address how this philosophy will guide you in the tripartite roles of a nurse educator—how it will guide your teaching, scholarship, and service. Support your philosophy with your knowledge of historical events that are pertinent to your work. In addition, identify the competencies that you see as critical to your role.

In sum, your philosophy statement should guide your practice as a nurse educator.

Your educator philosophy statement should do the following:

Identify the area of nursing education or the area in health care in which you will apply your MSN, education specialization skills, and knowledge.
Formulate your nurse educator philosophy statement, which should comprise your beliefs and values regarding the adult learner, learning environment, and teaching strategies and applicable learning theories that you will use as an educator.
Apply your philosophy statement to each of the tripartite roles of the nurse educator. What does your philosophy mean for your approach to teaching, scholarship, and service? As you discuss the role of teacher, be sure to address any theories (adult learning theory, learner-center education, and others) that shape your approach as an educator.
Analyze the relationship of significant historical events that have shaped the role you seek to fill.
Analyze the most essential nurse educator competencies necessary for this MSN-prepared nurse educator. Explain why you selected the competencies you did.
Conclude with a summary.

Capella FP6103 assessment 5

Create a 12–20-slide PowerPoint presentation for teaching a legal or ethical issue pertinent to nurse educators.

As nurses we are all, no doubt, very aware of the myriad of legal and ethical issues in any health care setting. We are familiar with licensing for health care professionals, perhaps, carry our own malpractice insurance, and have been cautioned by our employing institutions to always follow policy and procedures. Nursing education is no different; there are specific legal and ethical issues that are of concern to nurse educators.

Additionally, nurse educators are often called upon to teach others about specific legal and ethical issues. This can create an interesting balance between adhering to the legal and ethical responsibility of the nurse educator’s role, while also providing enough context and real-world evidence to help assist others in learning about specific legal and ethical issues.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency 4: Apply knowledge of legal and ethical issues relevant to higher education and nursing education.
Describe a legal or ethical issue that requires changes in staff, faculty, or student behaviors.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS

Discussion Questions (DQ)

Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.

Read Also:    FP 6103 assessment 5

Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.

One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.

I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

Weekly Participation

Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.

In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.

Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).

Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

APA Format and Writing Quality

Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).

Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.

I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

Use of Direct Quotes

I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.

As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.

It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

LopesWrite Policy

For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.

Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.

Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?

Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.

Late Policy

The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.

Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.

If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.

I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.

As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

Communication

Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me:

Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.

Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
