    DFC Concept Map Assignment Overview

    Concept maps allow you to organize and display key information in a way that you can see how information is connected and interrelated. The DFC Concept Map Assignments in this course allow you to extract key client information and practice clinical judgment using DFC or VCBC clients.

    Choose a concept from the Concepts for Nursing Practice eBook (found under your course eBooks) that relates to the patient you selected. You must choose a different concept for each of your concept map assignments.

    DFC Concept Map Goal

    The purpose of this assignment is to provide the learner an opportunity to strengthen their clinical judgment using a concept map format. Use the attached rubric for map requirements to ensure you receive full credit.

    Instructions

    1. Choose Your Map Concept

    a. Choose a concept from the Concepts for Nursing Practice eBook (found under your course eBooks) that relates to the patient you selected.

    2. Choose a Client

    a. You can use a current client, a past encounter, or a simulated experience if needed.

    b. You can use a concept only once per course.

    3. Complete the Client Information Section and Topic of the Map

    a. Use SBAR format for the client information

    Hover over each term or visit the ELO to learn more. SBAR includes:

    i. Situation

    ii. Background

    iii. Assessment

    iv. Recommendation

    b. Topic of the Map

    The topic of the map is your chosen concept. This might not always be the clients primary concern.

    i. For example, if your chosen concept is Mobility, focus on cues and interventions related to Mobilityeven if the client has a higher priority concern (such as Perfusion). Concepts are often interrelated, but you should maintain the focus of the map on the chosen concept.

    4. Build Your Clinical Judgment Concept Map

    a. Locate and download the concept map template within the DFC Concept Map module.

    b. Complete all boxes for your client.

    c. Use the assignment rubric to ensure you meet the requirements of the assignment.

    d. The arrows on the template are there to remind you that this map is intended to be completed in a certain order.

    e. What is a hypothesis?

    i. A hypothesis is a proposed explanation made on the basis of available data.

    Clinical Judgment Process

    Recognize Cues

    Based on available client data, identify relevant or important cues or information. Subjective and objective could be considered. Specific client values are included where appropriate (i.e., heart rate, oxygen saturation, etc.).

    Analyze Cues

    Link identified cues to the clients presentation. Determine conditions that are consistent with those cues.

    A condition is defined as a normal state with regard to ones health, such as pregnancy, or to a disease, disorder, illness, or injury (National Institutes of Health, n.d.).

    Prioritize Hypotheses

    Think Where do I start? Based on your analysis of the clients condition, determine which explanations are most likely. List and rank hypotheses according to most urgent problems and priority order.

    Generate Solutions

    Using the hypothesis, identify desirable outcomes for the client. Goals are listed in SMART format.

    In SMART format, goals are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. Visit the ELO for more information.

    Example of a SMART goal:

    The patient will report a pain level of 4 or less on a 010 scale within 30 minutes of pain medication administration.

    Take Action

    Using the identified SMART goals, identify and describe how nursing interventions will be performed, administered, communicated, or taught. Interventions will address the priority concerns and are designed to help meet the clients goals.

    Intervention #1 should be crafted to help meet SMART goal #1.

    Evaluate Outcomes

    Compare observed outcomes against expected outcomes. Determine if your identified interventions were effective.

    Evaluative statements must be written in past tense.

    Format example:

    The (goal was achieved) by (time specified) as evidenced by (supporting findings) after (nursing intervention was performed).

    To reiterate: SMART goal #1, Intervention #1, and Evaluation #1 must all be related. This process should be repeated for all goals and their associated interventions and outcomes.

    5. Give Credit to Your Sources

    a. After completing your concept map, give credit to your sources on both the Reference page and as in-text citations.

    b. References must be listed in APA 7th edition format, including:

    Author

    Publication year

    Source

    The Writing Center can help with APA format. You may also use the Citation Machine on the Purdue OWL website.

    Task 2: Create your CSC340L file directory.

    Vivado Design Suite can be very picky about its file directory. Create a folder as follows: C:CSC340LYourFirstName_LastName. This will be the folder for all your CSC340L labs and projects and will be referred to as your CSC340L directory.

    Note: If the number of the course differs from this example, use the same logic/pattern to create your directory with the actual course number.

    Task 3: Create your first project named Lab1.

    Create this empty project and make sure it is created successfully. You can check whether the project is created successfully by doing one or both of the following:

    1. Verify Lab1 directory is created under your CSC340L directory.
    2. In Vivado Design Suite, close the project by selecting File > Project > Close. Then reopen the project by selecting File > Project > Open.

    Lab Assignment

    Video Report for Lab 1 that includes the following:

    • The accurate and complete walkthrough of the Vivado Design Suite download and installation in Task 1. This shall include enough details for a new student of CSC340L to follow and install and activate Vivado Design Suite successfully.
    • Successful reopening of the Lab1 project as described in Task 3.

    Zip file the design directory that you created in Task 3, name your file name your zip file YourFirstName_LastName_Lab1.

    For each lab, you are required to submit all of the following items:

    1. Screen Recording of your work
    2. ZIP file of the complete Xilinx/Vivado project folder

The students will complete the assignment in Hypothesis where they will be expected to make eight annotations about the article and engage in discussion with their classmates. When reviewing the article please consider the connection to Chapter readings for the module. For example, Bonds in Gangs how does the current article relate to the chapter just reviewed. Also you can pose question for me answer in hypothesis. Become familiar with the learning tool.

    Use “module 3 article” and make 10 annotations to that article. Reference “module 3 chapter” with the annotations. No need to cite each annotation. It works better if each annotation has a little substance to it other than a short part of a sentence.
