integrating Evidence-Based Practice: THIS CLASS IS ESSENTIAL OF NURSING RESEARCH
Write an essay addressing each of the following points/questions. Be sure to completely answer all the questions for each bullet point. There should be two main sections, one for each bullet below. Separate each section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know which bullet you are addressing in that section of your paper. Support your ideas with (2) sources (1 outside source and the textbook) using citations in your essay. Make sure to cite using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference page in correct APA do not count towards the minimum word amount. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment.
Part 1:
Describe the eight steps to integrating evidence-based practice into the clinical environment. What barriers might you face in implementing a new practice to address your research topic (as identified in Module 1)? Describe strategies that could be used to increase success including overcoming barriers.
Part 2:
Describe six sources of internal evidence that could be used in providing data to demonstrate improvement in outcomes.
Database Programming
Lab Assignment
Create both logical and physical database models following the requirements below. show your model and table design using screenshots or text. Then, implement your database.
The database for this project can be created on one of the major cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/Google Cloud) using a free student account. Otherwise, you may utilize any database tool available such as OpenOffice Base, MySQL, or Microsoft Access. Consult the Lab Activities section of the Syllabus for additional details.
Requirements: This database will support an application that tracks movies, as well as the performers and production crew for those movies (think IMDB). For each movie, the title, year of release, genre, and parental advisory rating should be stored. For each performer/crew member, first and last name should be stored, as well as date of birth and hometown.
Each performer/crew member can be related to any number of movies. The database should also track the role the individual played in the production of the movieproducer, director, screenwriter, actor, and so forth. For acting roles, the relationship should also track the name of the character portrayed. The database must allow for the same individual to perform multiple roles in the same movie.
Additionally, the database should track reviews of movies. Each review should involve a reviewer and a rating of 1 through 5 stars.
Insert at least 5 movies, 50 cast/crew, and 100 reviews into the database. [CO1]
Write a query to extract the 5 most recent movies. [CO1]
Write a query to extract the movie with the highest average rating. [CO1]
Write a stored procedure that takes two actors and returns all movies that they have appeared in together. [CO1]
Write a CHECK constraint that requires that an actor cannot be associated with a movie released before their date of birth. [CO4]
Write a trigger to automatically generate a 5-star review by an anonymous user when a movie is inserted. [CO4]
Write a transaction that creates a duplicate of a movie and all associated actors/crew (for all the sequels being written!) [CO7]
Describe a set of recommended indexes for this database. Which columns and tables should be included? Assume that read operations happen far more frequently than write operations, and that database space is unlimited. [CO6]
Write a brief paper (no more than 2 pages/550 words) discussing your table design. Be sure to take screenshots of all of the above queries and outputs, and insert into this document. Please use a format where the database file is available (Microsoft Access, OpenOffice Base, etc.).
Note: Submission requirements for this lab assignment include the database file, screenshots, and a brief paper.

Like the Annotated Bibliographies? This is your chance to complete one on a research article of your choosing. In order to qualify for extra credit for this assignment, you need to do the following:
1) Find a credible research article on a psychological topic. This cannot be any article you are required to read as part of this course or that is used for any other assignment. Please ensure that the article is AT LEAST 10 pages (not counting the references) and is an empirical research study (not a literature review, magazine article, blog, etc.). If you are not sure if your source fits the criteria, check with Professor S.
2) Use the annotated bibliography template to conduct a review of the article you have chosen. This should be just like what you have done with the graded annotated bibliography assignments.
3) Upload your completed work here by the last day of the semester.
