ASSESSMENT TASK 1: DEVELOPING A WIKI:
For this piece of assessment you will be allocated into groups of five (5) students, with whom you will be required to communicate via your group’s specific discussion forum (remember that your colleagues do not all live in the Townsville/Cairns regions and that some may even be residing overseas). As a group you will collaborate to build a Wiki on your group’s allocated topic.
TOPIC FOR YOUR GROUP WIKI
This subject teaches you about nursing research and how to use the available evidence as a basis for your nursing practice. This assignment requires you to search for professional literature, analyse the content and present the evidence to address a particular topic.
The topic for this assignment relates to Interdisciplinary Team approaches to health care.
A suggested delegation of responsibilities in the group is to split the five (5) pages over the following sub-topics:
1. Define and explain, in your own words, what is meant by the interdisciplinary team.
2. Define and explain, in your own words, what is meant by consumer participation.
3. Explain why these concepts are central to contemporary health care.
4. Provide examples of how the concepts of the interdisciplinary team and consumer participation are applied in
practice.
5. Identify and describe the professional skills nurses need to work effectively within an interdisciplinary team.
Each of these should be discussed with reference to the current professional literature and best practice guidelines. The word count will be 500 words per individual page, and 50 words per student for the group page, excluding diagrams and references.
