NURS 4113 NURSING RESEARCH
Dissemination is an important part of displaying your work and seeking feedback from your peers. Dissemination can occur in the form of poster presentations, podium presentations, research meetings, or even publications. The first step to any presentation is to present your abstract for peer review. Your course instructor will post a number of abstracts. Your task is to give a peer review and comment upon 2 of the posted abstracts in a scholarly format. The format for posting is the ABC format.
A- Acknowledge your peers posting by name- ie Hello .....
B-Build upon the abstract you have chosen with a comment, data, or new information on the subject. Comments must contain at least one in text citation and a reference at the end.
C-Conclude with a statement or question that could potentially continue a conversation or scholarly discussion. (e.g. You mentioned current fall prevention measures are not sensitive enough in fall prevention. Did you find any screening tools for assessment of fall risk?). Students are not required to respond to the questions for this post, but can if they like.
