Grading Criteria for Discussion Board Postings
Support your initial post by including two references: 1) one reference from an English-titled, peer-reviewed nursing journal (less than five years old) and 2) one from the course textbook.
Review peer postings and reply to at least one. Support your response by including 1) one reference from an English-titled, peer-reviewed nursing journal (less than five years old). This article must be different from the one used for the initial post.
Additional peer-reviewed journal articles and professional, governmental, or educational organization websites may be used as supplemental references.
Students must justify the need and obtain approval from the professor prior to submitting any discussion postings or written assignments that use non-nursing journals or use references more than five years old. Work submitted without prior approval will be graded as zero (0).
Maximum # of references for each posting is 3.
APA format required (this includes separate title and reference pages, a running head, and page numbers).
See grading rubric for discussions prior to submission.
In addition to posting to the discussion board, attach the IP as a Word doc.
