NR 507-ATI Capstone assessments Discussion

Follow these guidelines when completing this assignment. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions.

1) Track performance for all ATI Capstone assessments by logging NCLEX-RN Client Need Category performance on the Individual Student ATI Assessment Trends: Longitudinal Performance tool.

2) Based on individual performance on the ATI Capstone Assessments, prioritize the top two concepts (topics) of greatest opportunity.

3) Include the following criteria for each identified concept (topic): The NCSBN NCLEX-RN Test Plan will support this process (detailed criteria listed below and in the Grading Rubric must match exactly).

a) Each Concept (Topic)- 10 points/20%

i) Learning Needs:

(1) Required Criteria:

(a) Identify the concept (topic) of opportunity.

(b) Provide a description of how this aligns with the NCLEX-RN Test Plan as indicated by performance in the Individual Student ATI Assessment Trends Table.

ii) Learning Strategies:

(1) Required Criteria:

(a) Identify a minimum of two learning strategies that you plan to implement to address your learning need.

iii) Learning Resources:

(1) Required Criteria:

(a) Identify a minimum of two resources that you will integrate into your NCLEX-RN Readiness plan to assist you with improving the identified learning need.

(1) Required Criteria:

(a) 250 word minimum

(b) Give three specific examples on how the ATI Capstone assessments Review helped improve your self-identified top two priority concepts (topics) of greatest opportunity from above.

(c) Describe three test taking strategies that resonated with you and explain how you will implement these strategies into your NCLEX-RN Success preparation.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument
