QUESTIONS TO ANSWER
1. What did you learn about your searching and reviewing articles for use in Appendix A?
2. What hints could you provide for your classmates?
This needs to be a substantial main discussion and use some of the objectives above.
3. Attach your approved revised table as a document in WORD to the discussion. Use the final revision approved by the faculty. Do not post to this discussion until you receive the final approval of your week 7 Appendix A table.
4. Reply to two other students – one to a different topic than yours and one to a similar topic as yours – look closely at the references. Did they use some of the same references? If so… did they identify the evidence type correctly? Did they identify the Level of Evidence correctly? All these questions (if identified) will earn you a good grade on this discussion.
MOVING FORWARD:
The approved Appendix A must be used in the policy/poster as your Appendix A. See the APA Manual for formatting and location of the Appendices in the policy. USE Word document format only.
