CONTENT OF THE PRESENTATION The presentation must include the following: Introduction/Problem Statement: Explain the purpose and significance of the problem with context and existing gaps in the area and how this project can contribute to the area. Describe your approach. Review of the literature: Review pertinent literature on the topic. Please use APA (5th edition) format in citing your references. Interviews with key informants (if applicable)* and/or report of related activities to your topic: You should obtain information about your topic from NP activists, legislators, or members of NP or other nursing organizations. You will be consulting with your faculty about the approach to the interviews and the analysis of the interviews. You may also be attending meetings, preparing testimony on the subject of interest, and/or working with committee members of NP organizations. * Interviews are not mandatory but if used please follow instructions above. Discuss the relevance and significance to NP practice. Synthesize the literature review and/or the analysis of interviews and interview data in a concise summary of the issue, including recommendations and implications for future action on the topic. The presentation will be shared during the CDM synchronous session in a creative manner, including either PowerPoint, voiceThread, or similar program. Presentation should be between 20-30 minutes. Slides should be used to help outline the presentation and highlight important points. It is expected that the presentation includes more in-depth discussion of topic- NOT just reading the slides. GRADING CRITERIA The grade for this assignment will be based on the quality and content of the presentation. Please refer to the Professional Issues Grading Presentation rubric below for additional information. my instructor comment on the problem statment is ” I like your approach, but be sure to state the actual problem in the introduction to your paper. You have discussed several different things that impact health care in Israel, so I’d suggest you narrow it down and be very clear about the specific problem you wish to address. Also, I did not grade APA or grammar, punctuation, etc. here, so be sure to edit you paper at all stages for those issues (I will definitely be grading them for the final product). “
