To Prepare:

• Reflect on the four peer-reviewed articles you critically appraised in Module 4, related to your clinical topic of interest and PICOT.
• Reflect on your current healthcare organization and think about potential opportunities for evidence-based change, using your topic of interest and PICOT as the basis for your reflection.

The Assignment: (Evidence-Based Project)

Part 4: Recommending an Evidence-Based Practice Change

Create an 8- to 9-slide narrated PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:

• Briefly describe your healthcare organization, including its culture and readiness for change. (You may opt to keep various elements of this anonymous, such as your company name.)

• Describe your plan for knowledge transfer of this change, including knowledge creation, dissemination, and organizational adoption and implementation.
• Explain how you would disseminate the results of your project to an audience. Provide a rationale for why you selected this dissemination strategy.
• Describe the measurable outcomes you hope to achieve with the implementation of this evidence-based change.
• Be sure to provide APA citations of the supporting evidence-based peer reviewed articles you selected to support your thinking.

Option 1: Narrative Exchange (500-600 words)

The lectures for this week discuss three different kinds of film/TV narrative: classical (Stagecoach), post-classical/complex (Westworld), and art cinema (The Rider). Choose one of the three works we watched, and imagine what it would be like if you restructured it using a different narrative style. For example, how would The Rider’s story differ if it were organized in a more classical way, inspired by Stagecoach? What might an art cinema version of Stagecoach’s narrative look like? Could you imagine a complex/post-classical variation of Stagecoach or The Rider? Your response should refer to course materials. 

Option 2: Adapting a News Story  (500-600 words)

Find an article in a news outlet (e.g., The Daily Bruin). Choosing one of the narrative styles we’ve discussed (classical, post-classical/complex, art cinema), describe how you would adapt this story into a narrative film. Then, write a 250-word “Creators’ Statement” that describes what you were planning to achieve with this work. Your response should refer to course materials.
