Abstract "At a unique time in history, diverse clinicians and student cohorts have the opportunity to enhance their skill sets in planning, writing, and implementing clinical project proposals. This book shares the "must know" for gaining a set of clinical scholarship tools for writing a concise, scholarly project proposal and beyond to the finished proposal. It provides practical guides for graduate students and advanced clinicians to organize and package their clinical projects into tight proposals that can lead to good project completion. The book guides the reader in using tools gained in previous courses, such as theory, research, and statistics, to develop a sound proposal for a quality advanced clinical project. In this fourth edition, the "must know" information from these courses is reinforced, and resources for further reading are recommended. Students interact with this book's content through the ongoing reflective prompts and questions that guide them in reflective writing to better understand their projects and what they propose to do. The book provides students with tools to implement in their own scholarly practice. Chapters, consistent with previous editions, feature boxes offering advice from DNP students who have completed project proposals. Each chapter has been thoroughly updated and edited to enhance clarity. In response to reviewers' requests, new proposal and project tips have been added to many chapters. Key features to engage readers continue from the earlier editions; these include reflective questions, tips for making proposals complete and concise, exemplars, and reader activities. This text helps develop reflective clinical scholars who can write about clinical challenges, propose solutions, and use the methods of quality improvement (QI) and research to develop scholarly proposals and projects"-- Provided by publisher.
