Bi-weekly Practicum Journaling

Every two weeks, you will submit a reflective journal to the discussion forum for review by course faculty and your classmates. All are expected to engage and support one another by sharing these experiences in a supportive, constructive, and professional environment. Journaling is an active learning technique that is meant to enhance reflective practice (Blake, 2005). Reflective practice involves looking back over what has happened in the practice setting in an effort to improve performance or to encourage professional growth (Ruth-Sahd, 2003).

Your Weekly Practicum Journal is:

• A personal, introspective subjective account of your practicum experience and how your practicum experience relates to Healthy People 2020 and course objectives. Include events that occurred in your practicum experience, and be sure to describe your thoughts and feelings about those events.  How did your perceptions change? What did you learn that was unexpected? Describe your thinking about your thoughts and feelings regarding the new learning you experienced.
• Connected to South University’s College of Nursing Conceptual Framework Pillars (Caring, Communication, Critical Thinking, Professionalism, and Holism)
• Connected to prior coursework and experiences through reflective analysis.
• Written in a scholarly, academic style using APA style format. Two or three sentences are not sufficient nor are daily logs/reports of activities.

As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format. Support your work, using your course lectures and textbook readings. Helpful APA guides and resources are available in the South University Online Library. Below are guides that are located in the library and can be accessed and downloaded via the South University Online Citation Resources: APA Style page. The American Psychological Association website also provides detailed guidance on formatting, citations, and references at APA Style.

Using the University Online Library or the Internet, research and identify additional information on handling conflict.

Based on your research and understanding, create a paper in a 3- to 4-page Microsoft Word document that:

Includes a description of:

·  Change theories: Environmental Change Theory, Teleological Change, Life Cycle.

·  Conflict theories: Organizational conflict theory, Social conflict theory, Social cognitive theory, Social exchange theory.

·  Leader as a change agent: According to Canterucci (2003), leaders facilitate change on five levels:
Level 1: Leaders accept the need for change and create a receptive environment for the change. This level deals with small changes that have clear direction.
Level 2: Leaders define and initiate change as well as identify points of influence.
Level 3: Leaders translate the organization’s vision into the context of the specific change. This occurs with an organization-wide change.
Level 4: Leaders manage complex, cultural dynamics to create a strategic course for change. This is a high-transformation change.
Level 5: Often called the revolutionary change, leaders on this level champion and support the final change process.

Integrates how your ability to handle conflict can either enhance or hinder effective leadership in the health care environment.
