NUR 301 Module Four Project Preparation Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Nurses must have an understanding of healthcare issues that directly impact their nursing practice. To do this, they must identify healthcare issues that impact them. Then, they must investigate how the issues connect to larger concerns. Finally, as they investigate, they must examine potential solutions to the issues.
The nursing shortage is a significant healthcare problem that has impacted, and is impacted by, many other healthcare issues. As frontline healthcare providers, nurses are directly impacted by these issues in many ways. There are a variety of healthcare issues connected to the nursing shortage, such as burnout, workplace violence, lack of nursing faculty, and more. When nurses identify issues that directly affect their nursing practice, there is often a desire to have a better understanding of the issues from all directions. This project preparation provides an opportunity to start the exploration of the many aspects of nursing practice issues.
This project preparation will help you with Project Two, where you will be required to describe a contributing issue that directly impacts the nursing shortage.

Grading of assignments:
Highest scores will be given to assignments that are critical and supported by detail or
references and
citing specifics. Also, use the resources of the web! Feel free to incorporate any
diagrams or illustrations
that will strengthen your report. General comments such as “it was easy to read” will
receive lower
scores. I expect that anything you submit to the Written Assignment or Discussion
Section will follow the
rules of English grammar and spelling! Please refrain from email slang and
abbreviations. Non-compliance with this rule will impact negatively on your grade. Also consider what is the appropriate
length for a written assignment. In most cases, a one paragraph submission will earn a 
lower grade. Samples of “A” work are in the Module called Sample Assignments.
