Week 9: Capstone Synthesis Practicum
Practicum Project Presentations
As agents of social change, nurse executives have a vantage point that allows them to focus both internally and externally. Internally—in that they carefully examine their own organizations and the policies, procedures, and systems that directly impact them and those within their span of control. Externally—in that they know what other organizations are doing, read the scholarly literature, and stay up to date on best practices and technological and workforce trends. Thus, nurse executives possess awareness of the wider healthcare environment along with the practical ability to apply changes within their own organizations. The Practicum Project represents how the internal and external foci come together to drive change.
ORDER CUSTOM, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPER

PowerPoint Presentation Notes
Your PowerPoint presentation should exhibit a professional appearance that reflects
thoughtful, thorough preparation. Consider the audience’s needs, and use your creativity
to design an engaging presentation. Your audience consists of your colleagues and
Faculty. This presentation also serves as the Portfolio Assignment for this course.
The use of PowerPoint as a presentation method allows you to create a narrative to
convey essential aspects of your Practicum Project. As you develop your presentation,
structure the information to provide a logical flow from the beginning (introduction) to the
middle to the end (conclusion).
Determine a title for each slide. As you create each slide, include the slide title at the top
to help orient the audience, and make sure the slide text is concise and easy to read.
While you may wish to include a few photos or graphics, be mindful that including too
many of these items can be distracting and may result in problems with file size and
downloading.
