Examples of scholarly activities include attending conferences, seminars, grand rounds, participating in policy and quality improvement committees, writing scholarly publications, participating in community planning, serving as a guest lecturer, etc. Involvement in and contribution to interdisciplinary initiatives are also acceptable scholarly activities.
Documentation of these activities is required in DNP-810A, , DNP-830A, and DNP-840A.
A summary report of the scholarly activity, including who, what, where, when, and take-home points, will be submitted as the assignment. Include the appropriate program competencies associated with the scholarly activity and future professional goals related to the activity. Use the “Scholarly Activity Summary” template to help guide this assignment.
Learners will submit this assignment using the assignment dropbox in the digital classroom. In addition, learners must upload this deliverable to the Learner Dissertation Page (LDP) in the DNP PI Workspace for later use. Failure to submit the reflective journal to both locations can result in an Incomplete for the course.
