What NURS 764 Week 4 Project Classroom Teaching Plan asks for

You develop a 6 to 8-page classroom teaching plan. It must include an outline of topics and assessments for one semester, a plan for theory integration, at least an hour of lecture deliverables, a short video of you teaching the topic, and details of how the plan relates to the objectives. It is due in Module/Week 4 with Billings and Halstead chapters 14 and 15 and Bradshaw and Lowenstein chapters 9 to 11 and 18. Worth 150 points.

Where it fits in NURS 764

In the published schedule, Project Classroom Teaching Plan is one of 8 graded written assignments in NURS 764. It follows Week 3 Discussion Board Forum 2 and comes before Week 5 Project Innovative Strategies.

How NURS 764 Week 4 Project Classroom Teaching Plan is graded

Liberty grades Project Classroom Teaching Plan with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 150 points in the published guide. That is about 15% 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 764 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 764 Week 4 method, step by step

  1. Start from the need

    Assess the need first. The plan's goals and measures all depend on a clear statement of the gap.

  2. Write measurable objectives

    Turn the need into objectives that can be measured: who, what, how much, by when. Vague goals make the evaluation section impossible to write.

  3. Choose methods that fit the objectives

    Select the strategies, content or interventions that fit each objective, and say why they fit, citing evidence (The project sources and teaching literature).

  4. Plan the resources and timeline

    List what the plan needs (people, time, materials, cost) and the order of steps. Graders look for plans that could be carried out.

  5. Plan the evaluation

    Tie each objective to a measure and a time point. Evaluation is where most plans are thinnest.

  6. Format and length

    Follow the required template or headings and check length (6 to 8 pages, plus lecture deliverables and a short video) and APA.

Semester outlineTopics and assessments week by week.~440 words
Theory integrationThe learning theory behind the design.~310 words
Lecture deliverablesAt least an hour of content (slides, notes).~410 words
Link to objectives and videoHow each part meets the objectives; the video.~370 words

A topic angle that works

Put the semester outline in a table with three columns (week, topic, assessment) and a fourth naming the objective it serves. The link to objectives is a stated requirement, and the table shows it at a glance.

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 764 Week 4, sample theory integration paragraph

The plan is built on Kolb's experiential learning cycle. Each week moves from a concrete experience (a patient case or simulation), to reflection in a short written debrief, to abstract conceptualization in the lecture, to active experimentation in the next week's case.1 The cycle fits heart failure teaching because the same patient can be followed across weeks, so students test what they learned on a patient they already know.2

  1. Names the theory and its stages.
  2. Shows how it shapes the weekly design.
  3. Explains the fit to the topic.
