In the published schedule, Article Review 3 is one of 7 graded written assignments in HLTH 350. It follows Week 5 Discussion Board Forum 3 and comes before Week 7 Article Review 4.

How HLTH 350 Week 6 Article Review 3 is graded

Liberty grades Article Review 3 with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 80 points in the published guide. That is about 8% of the course's 1,010 points. Open the rubric before you draft and read across each row: the top column describes what full credit looks like, and the gap between columns tells you what costs points.

Course grades in HLTH 350 use Liberty's point scale: an A is 900 to 1010 points of the course total. Missing the length or source minimum usually costs points on several rows at once, which is why the checklist below starts with them.

Timing in the published guide: Each course week (except Module/Week 1) begins on Tuesday morning at 12:00 a.m. (ET) and ends on Monday night at 11:59 p.m. (ET). The final week ends at 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday. Check the due dates in your Canvas section, which govern.

The HLTH 350 Week 6 method, step by step

  1. Read the article twice, differently

    Read the article once for what it says and once for how it was done. On the second pass, note the design, sample, measures, analysis and any limitation the authors admit.

  2. Describe before you judge

    Open with an accurate, brief description of the study: purpose, question or hypothesis, design, sample and main findings. The critique only works if the reader trusts your summary.

  3. Appraise each part of the study

    Work through the study section by section and ask the questions the course uses: is the design suited to the question, is the sample adequate, are the measures valid, do the results support the conclusions?

  4. Name strengths as well as weaknesses

    Balance the appraisal. Strengths that are explained carry as much weight with graders as weaknesses, and a one-sided critique reads as careless.

  5. Say what it means for practice

    Close with usefulness: could the findings change practice, for which patients or settings, and with what caution?

  6. Keep to the length and format

    Hold to 450 to 500 words and write in narrative form with current APA, not as bullet points, unless the instructions say otherwise.

HLTH 350 Week 6, sample suggestions paragraph

To address low influenza vaccination among older adults, the article's problem, a county could combine three steps: standing orders so pharmacists and nurses can vaccinate without a separate prescription, vaccination clinics at senior centers and churches, and reminder calls before flu season.1 Standing orders would come first, because they remove a barrier at every visit at almost no cost.
