The purpose of Module C-Part I is to allow students an opportunity to synthesize course concepts and develop a personal philosophical statement of one’s values and beliefs about nursing. Students will construct a theory mind map to conceptualize their personal philosophical statement and their beliefs about nursing in relation to one selected theory. Students are to include the metaparadigm concepts of person/client, environment, health/illness and nursing in their mind map as a means to organize the drawing.
MODULE OBJECTIVES
Analyze conceptual models and middle range theories using the metaparadigm of nursing in relation to patient case examples.
Synthesize an existing nursing theory into a personal philosophical statement that reflects beliefs about nursing practice.

Students will develop a personal philosophical statement, create a mind map, and select a nursing theorist/theory that is compatible with their individual nursing practice. Students will write a 3-4 page scholarly paper that includes: a) how their personal philosophical statement is compatible with their one chosen theory; b) how they envision using their selected theory/philosophical statement in their individual nursing practice to improve patient outcomes, via a patient case study. The self-created theory mind map will be attached to this assignment, along with APA style references and a title page (these three elements are not counted toward the paper page limit).
A. Personal philosophical Statement :
The use of a nursing philosophy is the basis for nursing practice and promotes the proper application of nursing knowledge as well as the development of nursing theory and knowledge.
Develop a personal nursing specific philosophical statement incorporating your personal thoughts, and beliefs about nursing to improve patient outcomes.
Information regarding your personal philosophical statement will be included in your mind map, and discussed in the scholarly paper. (See below for more details).
B. Theory Mind Map:
Incorporate your personal philosophical statement in your mind map.
Illustrate the compatibility of your one selected theorist/theory with your personal philosophical statement of how you practice nursing in your mind map. (In other words…provide a conceptual image/drawing of how you envision your personal philosophical statement is compatible with your selected theorist/theory through use of the nursing metaparadigm as you think about improving patient outcomes.
Mind Map Specifics:
Complete an individual mind map/drawing to illustrate/demonstrate synthesis of course concepts by relating one nursing theory to your experiences as a nurse and application to practice.
The mind map shows the relationship of the concepts of person, environment, health and nursing by a theorist of your choice as you see the theory helping to improve patient outcomes and as it relates to your personal philosophical statement. NOTE: each theorist has their own unique terms/concepts within each metaparadigm domain concept. We are looking for these terms. The mind map should include the SAME concepts discussed in the comparison section of your philosophical statement. No examples of mind maps are given so you can be creative.
The mind map can be stick figures, pictures, drawings, diagrams, etc. Review the document “How To Create a Mind Map in Word” Download “How To Create a Mind Map in Word”
Mind map will include:
Personal thoughts, feelings, and beliefs about the four domain concepts of the nursing metaparadigm:
Person/client; Environment; Health; Nursing
Your personal philosophical statement clearly stated
Connection or relationship to one selected nursing theory with your theorist’s key terminology evident in the mind map–theory terms within each metaparadigm domain concept.
C. What is expected in the scholarly paper along with the mind map:
Clearly identify and state your personal philosophical statement in the scholarly paper and briefly discuss. Minimum 1/2 page.
Discuss the compatibility of your personal philosophical statement with a chosen existing nursing theory in the scholarly paper. Discuss how these two are similar and different. Include details of the nursing theory, including at least 3 core concepts ( not the metaparadigm domain concepts, but rather their actual unique words/phrases/terminology), compared to your philosophical statement. Only select one theory. Minimum 2 pages.
Discuss the chosen theory’s application to your current practice in the scholarly paper by providing a specific clinical (case) example of how you would apply this theory combined with your personal philosophical statement to improve patient outcomes. This is a distinct and separate section of the paper. Be sure to use a clear case example and both theory terms as well as the major part of your philosophical statement. Minimum 3/4 page.
D. Personal Philosophical Statement/Theory Mind Map Assignment Submission Please refer to class schedule for due date and time.
Writing Expectations: Write a 3-4 page scholarly paper (not including title page, mind map or reference page) to describe/discuss your mind map, personal philosophical statement, connection to a nursing theory and application to nursing practice through a specific case example. Use of APA headings is recommended.
References: A minimum of 2 scholarly/peer-reviewed references in addition to your textbook formatted in APA. One is suggested to be authored by your selected nursing theorist.
APA Guidelines/Scholarly writing: Assignment is supported by APA guidelines which includes an expectation of a title page, APA headings, complete sentences which are grammatically correct, free of spelling errors and supported by proper in-text citation and proper citations of references.
Upload the personal philosophical statement/theory mind map scholarly paper as one word document, and submit your completed assignment into the assignment portal named “Module C Part I -Philosophical Statement/Mind Map.” This paper will be screened through Simcheck, once submitted.
Grading: Please refer to the Module C personal philosophical statement/mind map grading rubric located in the assignment portal of Module C Part I.
