Helps readers envision "the big picture" of their project from start to finish Now in its fourth edition, this acclaimed text has helped thousands of students craft well-written, high-caliber DNP Project proposals. It is distinguished by a concise, accessible approach grounded in the authors' Project Triangle, a proven, step-by-step framework that helps students organize and complete quality proposals. Retaining the approach that guided previous readers toward project success, the fourth edition has been expanded and updated to reflect present nursing scholarship. It addresses practice scholarship in greater detail, emphasizes academic/practice connections, focuses on working with clinical mentors, and discusses opportunities for documenting practicum products. The resource guides readers in addressing and naming select student outcomes/competencies, substantially incorporates AACN Essentials and APN competencies, and offers increased focus on quality improvement. The text also examines the time frame for specific project benchmarks and incorporates more "Tips Boxes" throughout. The book--supporting both students and faculty--offers practical guidelines for diverse clinical project models and fosters the development of concise, cohesive proposals that buttress the entire project. Activities throughout the text address important concepts and aid students in enhancing their skill sets in planning, writing, and implementing clinical project proposals. Helpful features include objectives and reflective questions to focus the student on key topics, abundant examples and pointers, self-assessments including goal-setting tips, examples of successful student work showcasing samples of "student problems and resolutions," interactive exercises to stimulate creative thinking, and exemplars of quality improvement projects. Purchase includes online access via most mobile devices or computers.
