For this discussion post, you will explore an evidence-based guideline covered in any module. Your response should be between 500-750 words and should follow general principles of proper grammar and punctuation. APA format is required. Following 7th edition APA guidelines, please provide in-text citations and at least two references. One reference can be your textbook and the other should be published within the last 5 years. Be sure to review the grading rubric for point allocation. Posting your initial discussion post on the due date will result in a point deduction (see rubric). This prevents student engagement and does not allow time for fellow classmates to respond to your post.
See the Module 12 Alignment Map linked within the module objectives section of this module for information on how this activity will enable you to meet the module and course learning objectives.
