Review the information in Figure 6–2 in Nursing Informatics and the Foundation of Knowledge. Develop a clinical question related to your area of practice that you would like to explore.
Assignment: Application:
Using the Data/Information/Knowledge/Wisdom Continuum
Have you ever gone online to search for a journal article on a specific topic? It is amazing to see the large number of journals that are available in the health care field. When you view the library in its entirety, you are viewing untapped data. Until you actually research for your particular topic, there is little structure. Once you have narrowed it down, you have information and once you apply the information, you have knowledge. Eventually, after thoughtful research and diligent practice, you reach the level of wisdom—knowledge applied in meaningful ways.
Are there areas in your practice that you believe should be more fully explored? The central aims of nursing informatics are to manage and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom. This continuum represents the overarching structure of nursing informatics. In this Assignment, you develop a research question relevant to your practice area and relate how you would work through the progression from data to information, knowledge, and wisdom.
To prepare:
Review the information in Figure 6–2 in Nursing Informatics and the Foundation of Knowledge.
Develop a clinical question related to your area of practice that you would like to explore.
Consider what you currently know about this topic. What additional information would you need to answer the question?
Using the continuum of data, information, knowledge, and wisdom, determine how you would go about researching your question.
Explore the available databases in the Walden Library. Identify which of these databases you would use to find the information or data you need.
Once you have identified useful databases, how would you go about finding the most relevant articles and information?
Consider how you would extract the relevant information from the articles.
How would you take the information and organize it in a way that was useful? How could you take the step from simply having useful knowledge to gaining wisdom?
By Day 7 of Week 4
Write a 3- to 4-page paper that addresses the following:
Summarize the question you developed, and then relate how you would work through the four steps of the data, information, knowledge, wisdom continuum. Be specific.
Identify the databases and search words you would use.
Relate how you would take the information gleaned and turn it into useable knowledge.
Can informatics be used to gain wisdom? Describe how you would progress from simply having useful knowledge to the wisdom to make decisions about the information you have found during your database search.
Your paper must also include a title page, an introduction, a summary, and a reference page.

Write a 3- to 4-page paper that includes the following: A summary of your area of interest, an identification of the problem that you have selected, and an explanation of the significance of this problem for nursing practice

Write a 3- to 4-page paper that includes the following:
A summary of your area of interest, an identification of the problem that you have selected, and an explanation of the significance of this problem for nursing practice
The 5 questions you have generated and a description of how you analyzed them for feasibility
Your preliminary PICOT question and a description of each PICOT variable relevant to your question
At least 10 possible keywords that could be used when conducting a literature search for your PICOT question and a rationale for your selections

Either identify, summarize, and critique the theory you plan to use for your TEP Exemplar Paper, or if you have not finalized your selection, any nursing theory will be acceptable.

TEP Theory Analysis Instructions
Either identify, summarize, and critique the theory you plan to use for your TEP Exemplar Paper, or if you have not finalized your selection, any nursing theory will be acceptable. Sources for nursing theories include using the McEwen & Wills text or accessing various theory websites.
Use 1 of the approaches for critique and evaluation of theory described in chapter 5 of the McEwen & Wills text. Be sure to clearly identify the approach you use (name the model/approach and the authors/researchers who developed the model—then follow the selected approach for the analysis).
This analysis must be 6–8 pages in length with at least 2–3 scholarly sources.
Refer to the Sample Theory Analysis Paper. You have the freedom to organize this paper as desired (regarding use of titles for headings/subheadings as applicable). You do not need to include an abstract for this paper. Otherwise, follow APA format (i.e., inclusion of title page, double-space content, and method for citation of references in the body of paper and in the reference list; cite your textbook and any documentation/articles you may have read related to your selected theory).
Note the Listing of Selected Theories and Theorists for further assistance.
Submit your paper by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of Module/Week 3.
