And Practice
Week 4 Assignment: CLC - Grand Nursing Theorist
Assignment: Theorist Identification and Rationale
Grand Canyon University
This is a CLC (Collaborative Learning Community) assignment.
The purpose of this assignment is to have a clear understanding of the elements of
a theory and to apply a theory to practice. The CLC group must use a grand theory
or a high-level mid-range theory.
The group will create a report for a practice committee at a health care institution.
The objective is to convince your peers of the value of using a specific theory to
guide practice and evaluate care.
Since the text does not provide adequate information on any one theory for the
purpose of this assignment, further research through nursing theory websites
(general and specific), as well as theory texts specific to individual theories, will be
required.
Begin the assignment by identifying a theorist and providing the rationale for the
group's selection.
