INTRODUCTION
Scholarly writing and the application of nursing research are two vital skills that you will use often as you progress through your doctoral program. In this assessment, you will construct a well-developed paragraph that differentiates between a quality or performance improvement (QI/PI) project and a research study. This paragraph will also provide you an opportunity to review the basics of academic writing, organization, and sentence structure.
INSTRUCTIONS
Review the resources provided in Assessment 3. Use them to help you describe the differences between a QI/PI project and a research study. IDEA ON THE BOTTOM WITH SOME GUIDANCE (blood pressure)
- Choose a project idea that might serve as a potential DNP project. Describe how the focus of the project would be a QI/PI project rather than a research study.
- Construct a well-developed and well-organized paragraph using the MEAL Plan.
- Label the parts of the paragraph appropriately by placing the letters M, E, A, and L before their respective parts.
- The paragraph should start with a non-referenced topic sentence that captures the main point of the paragraph. Subsequent sentences should support or explain the topic sentence.
- The paragraph should be in your own words and should not include direct quotes.
- The paragraph should be no more than 250 words.
- This skill will be important for you to master before you create your project charter, which must be written professionally, yet succinctly.
