Where it fits in NURS 700

In the published schedule, Written Assignment 3 is one of 8 graded written assignments in NURS 700. It follows Week 5 Discussion Board Two: EBP and Quality Improvement and comes before Week 7 Annotated Bibliography.

How NURS 700 Week 6 Written Assignment 3 is graded

Liberty grades Written Assignment 3 with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 75 points in the published guide. That is about 7% 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 NURS 700 use Liberty's point scale: an A is 940 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 module/week begins on Monday morning at 12:00 a.m. (ET) and ends on Sunday night at 11:59 p.m. (ET). The final module/week ends at 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday. Check the due dates in your Canvas section, which govern.

The NURS 700 Week 6 method, step by step

  1. Set up the data before the write-up

    Work through the Written Assignment 3 calculations or software steps first and save the output. The written part interprets those numbers, so they have to be right before you explain them.

  2. Show the method

    Name the method and the reason it fits. One or two sentences are enough, but they must be there.

  3. Report the results plainly

    Give the key figures in a labeled table and mention each in the text.

  4. Interpret in the context of the question

    Translate the numbers into a conclusion about the question. Say what decision they support and how confident you can be.

  5. Name the limits

    State what the analysis cannot tell you: assumptions, data limits, or what would change the answer.

  6. Submit the files the guide asks for

    Submit every file requested and check that formulas, output and the write-up agree (At least 5 pages, excluding title and reference pages).

Model paragraph with notes

An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.

NURS 700 Week 6, sample analysis paragraph

Readmission within 30 days is a dichotomous outcome, so comparing rates before and after the intervention calls for a chi-square test.1 Self-care scores on the Self-Care of Heart Failure Index are continuous, and with the same patients measured at discharge and 30 days, a paired t-test fits if scores are roughly normal, or a Wilcoxon signed-rank test if not.2 Reporting effect sizes alongside p values will show whether any change is large enough to matter clinically.3

  1. Matches the test to the level of measurement.
  2. Plans for a non-parametric alternative.
  3. Adds effect size reporting.
