Assessment Description
Technology is integral to successful implementation in many projects, through either support or integration or both. Name two information/communication technologies that could improve the implementation process and the outcomes of your capstone project. How would this technology be appropriately applied during the implementation phase of your project? Describe one potential barrier that could prevent the use of this technology.

Assessment Description
The purpose of this assignment will be to begin developing an implementation plan for your project.
In 750-1,000-words, include the following in your plan:
In 1-2 sentences, summarize the problem or issue being addressed by your proposed change project.
Based on the assessment of your practicum site and the literature evaluation you completed in Topic 4, propose how you will address the identified problem or issue (this will be the solution). Solutions should include sociocultural and linguistic considerations and affect nursing practice.
Discuss steps for how the nursing practice intervention will be implemented in the capstone project change proposal proposed above. In your discussion include the impact it will have on nursing practice.
Write a list of three to five objectives for your proposed intervention. Remember, objectives serve as the goals of your project.
Based on your objectives, develop a list of three to five measurable outcomes for your proposed intervention. Remember, outcomes serve as the tangible, measurable results of implementing your project and should align with your objectives.
Provide a rationale for how your proposed project, objectives, and outcomes demonstrate respect for autonomy (self-determination) for individuals and diverse populations.
You are required to cite a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources to complete this assignment. Sources must be published within the past 5 years, appropriate for the assignment criteria, and relevant to nursing practice.
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

Both the student and preceptor must sign the form. The midterm evaluation is a clinical artifact that is necessary to meet clinical requirements for this course. Therefore, the evaluation should be submitted with the preceptor’s hand-written signature. A typed electronic signature will not be accepted.
Students must submit all assigned deliverables, assessments, and evaluations including documentation of 100 clinical hours approved by an assigned preceptor (due in Topic 10). Additionally, students requiring remediation, must complete remediation successfully with their faculty and preceptor. Failure to submit all assignments, evaluations, and remediation (if applicable) will result in an “incomplete” or a failing grade.

Assessment Description
Students are required to initiate a mid-conference that will occur during Topic 5, using the “Practice Experience Conference Form (Mid-Conference)” resource. This conference is intended for the student, preceptor, and faculty to discuss progress toward meeting the learning goals and course objectives contained in the Individual Success Plan (ISP). Progress toward completing the written capstone project will also be discussed, including faculty recommendations for project development.
Student progress will be documented on the “Midterm Evaluation of Student using the Clinical Evaluation Tool (CET)”, which is submitted in the online classroom prior to the conference. The CET will be discussed during the mid-conference and graded in the online classroom by the faculty after the mid-conference.
The “Practice Experience Conference Form” is a clinical document that is necessary to meet clinical requirements for this course. Therefore, the approval form should be submitted with the preceptor’s hand-written signature. A typed electronic signature will not be accepted.
Assessment Description
Students who are not making appropriate progress on their capstone project and receive an “Unacceptable” or “Below Expectations” on the CET will be required to complete remediation activities. Required remediation activities are listed on the “NRS-465: Clinical Experience Remediation” document. The required activities must be submitted in the digital classroom upon their completion by the end of Topic 7. All required remediation activities will be reviewed and approved by the faculty.
The “NRS-465: Clinical Practice Experience Remediation” form is a clinical document that is necessary to meet clinical requirements for this course. Therefore, the form should be submitted with the preceptor’s hand-written signature. A typed electronic signature will not be accepted.
