How NURS 764 Week 8 Project Final Submission is graded

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.

The NURS 764 Week 8 method, step by step
See where this piece sits in the project
Read the whole project brief before this stage. Knowing where Project Final Submission leads lets you collect the right information now.
Choose a subject you can research
Choose a subject with plenty of public data. Every later stage will need facts about it.
Answer the questions this stage asks
Use the stage questions as headings. Each answer should be about your subject, supported by facts about it.
Apply the course model
Use the framework from Learning Theories and Teaching Methods for Nurse Educators that this stage is built on, named and applied step by step to your subject.
Support with sources
Back the analysis with credible sources (All project sources): company filings, industry data, peer-reviewed research.
Format, length and teamwork
Stay within The new service learning or mission trip section plus all earlier parts, revised and format in current APA. If the stage is a group deliverable, agree on who writes which section early and edit for one voice at the end.
A structure for NURS 764 Week 8 Project Final Submission
Word targets are planning numbers for about 1,500 words of body text, set by the length in the guide; the rubric decides where to spend more.
| Section | What it must do | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Service learning or mission trip design | Partner, activities, objectives and reflection. | ~510 words |
| Revised earlier parts | Each part improved from feedback. | ~600 words |
| Portfolio introduction and conclusion | How the parts form one teaching plan. | ~390 words |
A topic angle that works
Make the service learning project teach the same objectives as the rest of the portfolio. For heart failure, a partnership with a church health ministry where students run blood pressure and weight checks and teach self-management fits the topic and the course's Christian mission.
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.
Students will partner with a local church's health ministry for four Saturday mornings, running a heart health station where they check blood pressure and weight and teach members to recognize fluid overload.1 Each visit maps to an objective from the project, and students write a short reflection after each one on what members understood and what they did not. Service learning research in nursing links this kind of structured reflection to gains in cultural competence and civic engagement.2
- A concrete partnership and schedule.
- Linked to the project's objectives.
- Reflection built in.
Mistakes that cost points on NURS 764 Week 8
