What NURS 721 Week 7 Group Electronic Presentation Project asks for
Teams work as a group, virtually and in a manner they choose, to prepare an electronic presentation illustrating a contemporary health-related public policy or professionally related policy with its impact on nursing practice. The presentation must be 15 to 20 minutes if streamed (such as YouTube) or 30 slides (such as PowerPoint), and it must reflect 12 to 15 scholarly, peer-reviewed references provided in an APA reference page. It is due in Module/Week 7 with Goudreau and Smolenski chapter 13. Worth 250 points.
Where it fits in NURS 721
In the published schedule, Group Electronic Presentation Project is one of 8 graded written assignments in NURS 721. It follows Week 6 Group Electronic Presentation Project Topic and comes before Week 8 Discussion Board Forum 4.
How NURS 721 Week 7 Group Electronic Presentation Project is graded
Liberty grades Group Electronic Presentation Project with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 250 points in the published guide. That is about 25% 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 721 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 721 Week 7 method, step by step
Plan the talk before the slides
Write the message of the Group Electronic Presentation Project in two sentences, then outline the points that support it. Slides built before the message tend to become a stack of facts.
One idea per slide
Each slide carries one point, stated in its title. Short lines, readable type, no paragraphs on the slide.
Put the evidence where it is used
Meet the source requirement (12 to 15 scholarly peer-reviewed references, with an APA reference page) with citations on the slides themselves, plus a final references slide in current APA.
Write speaker notes or a script
Write notes for each slide in full sentences. They keep the recording on time and give the grader the reasoning the slides only point to.
Rehearse to the time limit
Record a practice run and time it. Cut slides rather than speeding up; a rushed recording hides the points you worked on.
Check the technical requirements
Confirm the format the guide asks for (15 to 20 minutes if streamed, or 30 slides): slide count, length, audio and visual, and the file or link type Canvas accepts.
A structure for NURS 721 Week 7 Group Electronic Presentation Project
Word targets are planning numbers for about 1,400 words of body text, set by the length in the guide; the rubric decides where to spend more.
| Section | What it must do | Target |
|---|---|---|
| The policy | What it is, its history and current status. | ~250 words |
| Stakeholders and politics | Who supports and opposes it, and why. | ~250 words |
| Impact on nursing practice | Scope, workforce and patient outcomes. | ~360 words |
| Ethical analysis | The ethical questions the policy raises. | ~220 words |
| The APN's role | How advanced practice nurses can influence it. | ~200 words |
| References | 12 to 15 peer-reviewed sources in APA. | ~110 words |
A topic angle that works
The course catalog stresses the ethical aspects of health policy, so give the ethics its own section rather than a closing slide: name the principles in tension (access and justice against safety, for example) and show how the evidence bears on each.
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.
The ethical debate over full practice authority is a debate between justice and nonmaleficence.1 Supporters argue that restricting nurse practitioners denies care to rural and underserved patients, a question of fair access; opponents argue that independent practice risks harm without physician oversight.2 The evidence from states with full practice authority shows no decline in quality measures and gains in access, which weakens the safety objection and strengthens the justice argument.3
- Names the principles in tension.
- Represents both sides fairly.
- Lets the evidence decide.
Mistakes that cost points on NURS 721 Week 7
