Evidence-Based Practice

Paper instructions:
2) The proposal is the plan for an evidence-based practice project designed to address a problem, issue, or concern in the professional work setting. Although several types of evidence can be used to support a proposed solution, a sufficient and compelling base of support from valid research studies is required as the major component of that evidence. Proposals are submitted in a format suitable for obtaining formal approval in the work setting. Proposals will vary in length depending upon the problem or issue addressed; they are to be between 3,500 and 5,000 words. The cover sheet, abstract, references page, and appendices are not included in the word limit.
3) Section headings and letters for each section component are required. Responses are addressed in narrative form in relation to that number. Evaluation of the proposal in all sections is based upon the extent to which the depth of content reflects graduate-level critical-thinking skills.
4) This project contains six formal sections:

Section A: Problem Description
Section B: Literature Support
Section C: Solution Description
Section D: Change Model
Section E: Implementation Plan
Section F: Evaluation of Process

5) Each section (A-F, to be completed in Modules 1-5) will be submitted as separate assignments so your instructor can provide feedback for revision (refer to each Module).
6) The final paper will consist of the completed project (with revisions to all sections), title page, abstract, reference list, and appendices. Appendices will include a conceptual model for the project, handouts, data and evaluation collection tools, a budget, a timeline, resource lists, and approval forms. An abstract will be required for the final paper.
7) Refer to the “EBP Implementation Plan Guide” and the “Evidence-Based Practice Project Student Example” as tools for developing your proposal.
8) This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment; therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment
