Directions

A.
Use Microsoft PowerPoint
to create four slides, which will be the basis of the guide or handout. You are
encouraged to cite your source(s) as it relates to your criteria slide. Other
citations are permitted, but this is not a requirement for the assignment.

1) Scenario Slide: This slide should include your name. Next,
outline a brief scenario, then identify a patient who is seeking information about
a specific disease process or diagnosis. Be sure to include the nurse’s
assessment of learning needs and the patient or family member’s readiness to
learn. Be specific.

Example:

Scenario for Mr. Jones

Jane Doe (your name here)

·
Mr. Jones is a 54-year-old
male recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

·
His wife has accompanied
him to the oncologist’s office.

·
Both have a high school
education.

·
Mr. Jones has no
interest in his diagnosis; his father died at an early age from pancreatic
cancer, and he thinks nothing can be done.

·
Mrs. Jones is greatly
interested in any treatment; she has been searching on the Internet for alternative
cures.

·
Mrs. Jones has asked the
nurse for help on how to determine whether a website is credible.

2) Criteria Slide: This slide should address at least four (4) criteria
used to evaluate websites. This information was presented in NR351: Transitions
in Professional Nursing and in various articles, your text, and other
references. The task is to explain how to determine the credibility of websites
and teach it to the patient and/or caregiver described in the Scenario Slide. Concentrate
on evaluation of information, not how to search. Assume that the patient
or caregiver has basic Internet searching skills, a computer in the home, and
can enter words in the query box in a search engine such as Google, Bing, Yahoo,
and so forth. The idea is to teach your patients how to evaluate websites
(suspect and credible) as they relate to a specific disease process or
diagnosis.

The format of the criteria should be logical and
easy to read, for example, a table, checklist, or Q & A. Be creative! Language
should be appropriate for the educational level of the audience, in other words,
the patient and/or caregiver as described in the Scenario Slide. Note: This is
the only slide that requires a citation.

3) Suspect Site Slide: This slide should give the name and
description of a suspect website. The suspect website must be related to the
disease or diagnosis identified in the scenario. However, the site does not
meet the criteria for a credible site, for example, gives inaccurate
information, and so forth. You must provide a working link to the site.
Wikipedia is not acceptable! Explain why the site is suspect based on the
criteria you outlined in the Criteria Slide.

4) Credible Site Slide: This slide should give the name and description
of a credible website that you would recommend to the patient and/or
caregiver/family member. The website must be appropriate for the general
public and address the disease process or diagnosis identified in the
Scenario Slide. Avoid sites that are aimed at healthcare professionals. Explain
why the site is credible based on criteria that you outlined in the
Criteria Slide.

B.
If you need assistance
using PowerPoint, search tutorials about how to use PowerPoint on the Microsoft
Office site.

C.
The following are the
scholarly writing requirements for this assignment:

a.
Your
name appears on the Scenario Slide.

b.
Four
slides should be submitted. Points will be deducted for additional slides.

c.
The four slides pertain to the

I.
scenario;

II.
criteria
for selection of credible sites;

III.
suspect
site; and

IV.
credible
site.

d.
The
links for the suspect and credible sites are working and formatted correctly.

e.
Punctuation
and sentence structure are correct with no spelling or grammatical errors.

f.
Graphics,
colored slides, and interesting backgrounds are welcome; however, they are not
part of the criteria for this assignment and are not considered for grading
purposes.

D. Review the section on
Academic Honesty found in the RNBSN Policies. All work must be original (in
your own words) unless properly cited.
