A literature review applies what has been learned through previous research efforts to describe a problem

In an 8-page paper, you will COMBINE THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE SO FAR FROM ASSESSMENT 3, 4, 5 and 6 to conceptualize the need for a project at your site, which supports the identified gap in practice and your chosen intervention.

INTRODUCTION

A literature review applies what has been learned through previous research efforts to describe a problem and defend a solution. By synthesizing resources to support a problem and solution, the scholar shows that a new practice or project is founded firmly on the conclusions reached by previous researchers. In this assessment, your Conceptualize a Potential Project paper may lay the foundation for your doctoral project, and will also help prepare you to create a capstone project charter.

In subsequent courses, you will further develop this topic or create a new one, based on the need at your site. You will conduct an exhaustive review of the literature to do so.

DEMONSTRATION OF PROFICIENCY

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

  • Competency 3: Address assessment purpose in a well-organized text, incorporating appropriate evidence and tone in grammatically sound sentences.
    • Construct an introduction that provides an overview of your gap in practice, and ends with a PICOT question in the correct format, and is an appropriate scope for a DNP project.
    • Conclude with a synthesis of your main points.
    • Produce text with minimal grammar, usage, spelling, and mechanical errors.
    • Apply APA formatting to in-text citations and references.
  • Competency 4: Communicate with organizational and community stakeholders in a responsive and responsible manner that supports a team approach to a possible intervention or process change.
    • Explain how you will tailor your message to your implementation team.
  • Competency 5: Synthesize literature to support a possible intervention or process change.
    • Synthesize research related to a gap in practice, including appropriateness for a specific organization.
    • Make recommendations, including possible solutions, planned actions, and appropriateness for a sponsoring organization, based on the analysis and synthesis of articles related to a project topic.

Note: The assessments in this course must be completed in the order presented; subsequent assessments should be built on both your earlier work and your instructor’s feedback on earlier assessments. If you choose to submit assessments prematurely, without considering and integrating your instructor’s feedback, your assessment may be returned ungraded, resulting in your loss of an assessment attempt.

A Note About Signature Assessments: This assessment has been identified as a Signature Assessment. Signature assessments serve a dual purpose: to meet the competencies in the course where the signature assessment appears and acquire skills needed to demonstrate competencies specific to the completion of the Doctoral Project Report. Please keep in mind your professor can take up to 6 business days to grade instead of the standard 3 days.

INSTRUCTIONS

Now that you have explored and developed many of the components to resolve a gap in practice, it is time to pull it all together! The purpose of this assessment is to develop skills in creating a cohesive argument using data and feedback from the course Assessments.

This assessment may lay the foundation for the doctoral project you will create later in your program, along with creating a capstone project charter, in which you will identify the evidence to support the need for your intervention. So, consider this a “trial run” of writing your doctoral project, and not the real thing.

PART 1: INTRODUCTION AND PICOT QUESTION

Using feedback and evidence from Assessments 5 and 6, create a 1–2 paragraph introduction to this paper that identifies the gap in practice.

End this introductory section with a clearly stated PICOT question that has an appropriate scope for a DNP project, and the proposed outcome measures match the proposed intervention.

PART 2: ANALYSIS AND SYNTHESIS OF RESEARCH

In this section, refine the Assessment 5 literature synthesis based on feedback from that assessment and substantiate the need for a project.

  • Analyze and synthesize your research related to a gap in practice for a specific organization.
  • Address whether the evidence you found is strong enough to substantiate your practice gap.
  • Identify areas of uncertainty, knowledge gaps, or a need for additional information to support a more complete understanding. Additionally, identify areas where further research is needed.

PART 3: RECOMMENDATIONS TO STAKEHOLDERS

Now that you have identified a gap in practice, and shown there is research to substantiate this gap, it is time to make recommendations to your stakeholders to address it.

In this section:

  • Using feedback and references from Assessment 6, make clear recommendations for an intervention that is appropriate for a sponsoring organization based on the analysis and synthesis of articles related to your project topic.
  • Analyze and synthesize your research related to a gap in practice for a specific organization.
  • Address whether the evidence you found is strong enough to substantiate your practice gap.
  • Identify areas of uncertainty, knowledge gaps, or a need for additional information to support a more complete understanding. Additionally, identify areas where further research is needed.

PART 4: COMMUNICATE WITH STAKEHOLDERS

In this section, explain how you plan to tailor your message to an implementation team. Describe strategies for making your communication clear, understandable, and respectful of the needs of this specific group. Consider how you would handle challenges, such as pushback or non-compliance.

PART 5: USING FEEDBACK TO IMPROVE WRITING

Receiving and implementing feedback is an important part of how we grow and improve as professionals. Throughout this course, you have received feedback on each assessment, and you were encouraged to use that feedback to improve your writing.

In this section:

  • Reflect on how you used feedback to improve your writing throughout the course.
  • How has implementing writing feedback moved your work closer to one or more of the writing quality indicators identified in the Writing Feedback Tool? (same question was asked in assessment 5)
    • The Writing Feedback Tool facilitates assessment of five core writing skills, aligned to Capella’s Writing Standards. These writing skills are known as the POETS writing skills.
      1. Address assignment purpose
        Related Competency: Compose a text that articulates meaning relevant to the main topic, scope, and purpose of the prompt.
      2. Develop strong organization
        Related Competency: Develop text using organization, structure, and transitions that demonstrate understanding of relationship between main and subtopics.
      3. Incorporate appropriate evidence
        Related Competency: Integrate into text appropriate use of scholarly sources, evidence, and citation style.
      4. Use scholarly tone
        Related Competency: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person and tone.
      5. Develop grammatically sound sentence structure
        Related Competency: Produce text with minimal grammar, usage, spelling, and mechanical errors.
  • How do you plan to use feedback in your professional career?

PART 6: CONCLUSION

Conclude your assessment with a brief synthesis of the main points you covered. No new information should be provided in this section, as its purpose is to provide closure for the paper.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Sources: 10 minimum; use the same resources from Assessment 5 and Assessment 6.
  • APA Formatting: Provide in-text citations and full reference page for all outside sources.
  • Length: Your paper should not exceed 8 pages; page count does not include title page and reference page.

GRADING CRITERIA

Your assessment will be graded using the following scoring guide criteria:

  • Construct an introduction that provides an overview of your gap in practice, and ends with a PICOT question in the correct format, and is an appropriate scope for a DNP project.
  • Synthesize research related to a gap in practice, including appropriateness for a specific organization.
  • Make recommendations, including possible solutions, planned actions, and appropriateness for a sponsoring organization, based on the analysis and synthesis of articles related to a project topic.
  • Explain how you will tailor your message to your implementation team.
  • Conclude with a synthesis of your main points.
