Grand Nursing Theorist Discussion

This is a Collaborative Learning Community assignment.

In your group, write a report on the chosen theorist/theory that includes the following:

  1. Introduction: Identify the theorist and rationale for the selection.
  2. Describe the theorist (short biography and major influences on the theorist).
  3. Indicate the category under which the theorist falls (can use McEwen & Wills classification or other source).
  4. Incorporate assumptions underlying the theory (including how metaparadigm concepts are defined).
  5. Include major concepts of the theory.
  6. Include major propositions of the theory.
  7. Provide examples from the literature of how the theory has been used.
  8. Describe how the theory will be integrated into practice at your institution (or how it will be used as a foundation, framework, etc.). This is an action plan.
  9. Give concrete examples of how theory would be integrated (e.g., assessment guide) and what patient outcomes could be measured as a result of implementing the theory.Grand Nursing Theorist Discussion
  10. Conclusion: Contrast present practice with what would take place if the theory were guiding the practice.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the GCU APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Justifies some of the impact influences had on the development of the theory. Identification of theorist is present with rich details that support claims. Accurately presents the major influences behind the development of the theory.
20.0 %Theory Assumptions, Concepts and Propositions Analysis of the major concepts and propositions of the theory is poorly presented. The assumptions underlying the theory are not addressed. Superficially evaluates the major concepts and propositions of the theory. Lacks understanding of the theory in relation to the assumptions underlying the theory. Surface level evaluation of major concepts and propositions of the theory is presented. Minimal information on the assumptions of the theory is provided. Analysis is direct, competent, and appropriate for the major concepts and propositions of the theory. Assumptions and ideas of the theory are supported. Thoughtfully analyzes and evaluates major concepts and propositions of the theory. Demonstrates a deep understanding of theories and models. Explores the assumptions underlying the theory including how metaparadigm concepts are defined.
15.0 %Practical Application Application of theory with hypothesis of how practice will change as a result is either not present or not evident to the reader. Minimal examples of how theory will change practice are briefly mentioned. Application of theory with hypothesis of how practice will change as a result is evident, but claims are vague and poorly developed. Mentions or outlines examples of how theory will change practice but does not provide adequate details. Application of theory with hypothesis of how practice will change as a result is present, but claims are supported with cursory evidence. Provides a few solid examples of how theory will change practice (ex. assessment guide, staffing plan, patient outcome measurement, interventions) Application of theory with hypothesis of how practice will change as a result is thoroughly presented, and claims are supported with detailed evidence. Provides several concrete examples of how theory will change practice (ex. assessment guide, staffing plan, patient outcome measurement, interventions) Application of theory with a hypothesis of how practice will change as a result is comprehensively presented, and claims are supported with detailed evidence that is reinforced from research. Provides multiple concrete examples of how theory will change practice (ex. assessment guide, staffing plan, patient outcome measurement, interventions)
15.0 %Integration Plan Plan fails to explain how the theory will be integrated, used as a foundation or framework in the practice/administration of the institution.
