EXPLORATION OF SOURCES OF EVIDENCE

For this Discussion, you will explore the sources of evidence necessary for your identified practice problem. These sources of evidence may be derived from library databases related to nursing, or you may find sources necessary for your practice problem in the form of interviews or library databases related to other fields. Consider where you might explore sources of evidence for your practice problem. Where might you find these sources outside of your typical evidence locations? Consider why this exploration is important and meaningful for your proposed change.
Post a response detailing your exploration of sources of evidence for your practice problem. Consider multiple sources of evidence, rather than simply resources from the library: formal and informal interviews, national organizations, internal/external to your organization and/or practice. Consider library sources of information outside of nursing literature (e.g., business journals). Consider the impact of not including resources from specific sources. How might this create a flaw in your ability to support a proposed practice change? Be specific and provide examples.

Math problem rooted in Solar Energy

March 1, 2023
We hinted that even if we covered every rooftop with a solar panel in Manhattan it would be difficult to meet the energy needs to elevators alone. Estimate how much of Staten Island (% of total area of the island) would have to be covered with Solar Panels to
1. Meet the dumb elevator energy requirements of Manhattan
2. Meet the total energy needs of Manhattan
3. Meet the total energy needs of Manhattan and Staten Island

And estimate costs of land and panels. Cite your work.

Chapter 8 Early Adulthood:

In early adulthood, the need for intimacy and close connection with others is critical for psychological wellbeing, although today’s generation of young adults is typically focused on career goals, planning for the future and making decisions that will affect their “life course.” Both factors are important during this stage, and so this week you have a choice of issues to discuss. And since Covid-19 has presented many additional challenges, you are welcome to address them in your response. Your response should be around 250 words. Provide at least one support from the sources into your response. Choose one of the following to answer:

  • As a complement to your career evaluation assignments, discuss some of the issues related to employment and the workplace.
