To clarify, the week 2 assignment is a PowerPoint presentation that includes the scenario you used in the discussion forum during Week 1. It is only a PowerPoint presentation but one slide should include the infographic created to express the concepts of the assignment (explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker).

The discussion for Week 1 will be graded separately. However, you need to include parts and elements from the discussion into the PowerPoint. It builds upon the Week 1 discussion.

I have attached a copy of student example for the Week 2 assignment in the DOC SHARING folder. ***It is very important that you not copy or use this presentation as it has been submitted to the University and will show up in the similarity checker. 

Always look to the grading rubrics for additional focus on what is expected and how the work will be assessed.

The Assignment has 3 parts:

  1. Explain the concept of a knowledge worker.

Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader   as a knowledge worker.

  1. Develop a simple infographic to help explain these concepts. 

    NOTE: For guidance on infographics, including how to create one in PowerPoint, see “How to Make an Infographic in PowerPoint” as presented in the Resources.

  2. Present the hypothetical scenario you originally shared in the Discussion Forum. Include your examination of the data that you could use, how the data might be accessed/collected, and what knowledge might be derived from that data. Be sure to incorporate feedback received from your colleagues’ replies.

THE NURSE LEADER AS KNOWLEDGE WORKER

The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter Drucker in his book,  The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services. Does this sound familiar?

Nurses are very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.

In this Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker. You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of nurse as knowledge worker.
