Your final paper should contain the following:
1. Title page.
2. Headings for each section in the rubric (note hat the introduction should not have a heading as per APA).
3. Introduction including a concise and compelling statement of the significance and relevance of the issue. The significance and relevance statements are supported by three scholarly sources. The introduction concludes with a thesis statement and statement of the significance of the topic.
• The thesis: The thesis demonstrates an assertive stance on a relevant issue that is highly debatable. It is clearly worded, concise and controversy is significant.
• Significance of the topic is clearly stated.
4. Literature review demonstrating that the issue is current and debatable through an analysis of the historical context of that issue. The scope and nature of the issue is synthesized in a clear and concise way. Synthesis means that citations with common key points are grouped. Paragraphs draw upon multiple sources to illustrate key points. The discussion is supported by a minimum of five relevant sources of scholarly literature. A balanced view of the issue is presented that demonstrates that the topic is debatable.
5. Philosophical or theoretical underpinnings that inform your position on the issue. The justification of a theory supports the discussion and clearly relates to the topic. It does not need to be a nursing theory. The discussion must be supported by literature.
6. General discussion of topic/issue/construct with references to literature and other sources of evidence to support your argument/thesis statement. Each argument paragraph opens with a clear, concise and thoughtful statement of the main argument that is connected to the thesis. A critical analysis of relevant nursing or health evidence is demonstrated that supports the argument identified in the opening sentence of the paragraph. The discussion is persuasive, flows well, and shows that the thesis is reasonable, coherent and grounded in evidence. A minimum of three different scholarly sources are synthesized to support each argument in the discussion. Each paragraph ends with a succinct summary of how the argument supports the thesis and flows into the next paragraph. Each argument should be discussed under a heading that identifies the main point within that argument.
7. Implications for nursing. Three clear, concise, and relevant implications for nursing practice are described. The discussion is supported by three or more relevant scholarly sources of literature.
8. Conclusion. The conclusion includes a clear and concise summary in relation to the stated thesis and reiterates aspects of key literature from the paper. Further questions of research are suggested. The final sentence in this paragraph leaves the reader with an insightful consideration to ponder related to nursing informatics.
9. Reference page.
