This course focuses on developing the critical thinking and information technology skills necessary to access, analyze, and evaluate evidence-based scientific literature and apply these findings to nursing practice. Principles of research methodology and the relationship of nursing research to evidence-based practice and the nursing process are discussed. Students will formulate research questions based on clinical observations and will practice the process of summarizing a body of research-based information related to these questions for application to evidence-based practice situations. Students will explore the role of the professional nurse related to research and best practices by developing, evaluating, and applying research modalities to address nursing care issues. The role of the nurse in affecting evidence-based change in practice will be discussed.  This course will include intensive writing components to prepare students to communicate their research findings effectively, professionally, and succinctly.  SP
