Assessment 5 Instructions: Intervention Presentation and Capstone Video Reflection
• PRINT
• Present your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group and record a 10-15 minute video reflection on your practicum experience, the development of your capstone project, and your personal and professional growth over the course of your RN-to-BSN program. Document the time spent (your practicum hours) with these individuals or group in the Capella Academic Portal Volunteer Experience Form.
Introduction
Baccalaureate-prepared nurses have many opportunities to reflect on their contributions to patient care outcomes during clinical experiences. Research suggests that creating and sharing video reflections may enhance learning (Speed, Lucarelli, & Macaulay, 2018). During clinical experiences, nurses with a bachelor’s degree have a lot of chances to think about what they did to help patients get better care. Research shows that making and sharing video reflections may help students learn more (Speed, Lucarelli, & Macaulay, 2018).
For this assessment, you will show the patient, their family, or a group your approved intervention and think about different parts of your capstone practicum experience. This will give you a chance to talk about the parts of the project that you are most proud of and the parts that will help you grow as a nurse and in your personal practice.
For this assessment, you’ll present your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group and reflect on various aspects of your capstone practicum experience. Such reflection will give you a chance to discuss elements of the project of which you are most proud and aspects of the experience that will help you grow in your personal practice and nursing career.
