Explain the concept of a knowledge worker in general. (1 slide)
Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker. (1 slide)
Develop one simple infographic to help explain both the concept of nursing informatics and the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker. (1 slide)
Note: For guidance on infographics, including how to create one in PowerPoint, see “How to Create an Infographic in PowerPoint” as presented in the Resources.
Present a hypothetical scenario based on your own nursing practice or healthcare organization that would require or benefit from the access/collection and analysis of data. Your scenario may involve a patient, staff, or management problem or gap. (1–2 slide)
Describe the problem from the viewpoint of a nurse informaticist by:
Describing the data that could be used (1 slide)
Describing how the data might be accessed/collected (1 slide)
Describing what knowledge might be derived from that data (1 slide)
Indicating how a nurse leader would use clinical reasoning and judgment in formation of knowledge from this experience (1 slide)

Slide Title
• Go to the “Home” tab at the top and click the “New Slide” or “Layout” button to
access different formatting for your slides.
• Choose formatting that presents your information in the most logical way.
• Use consistent, grammatically parallel format for bulleted lists (for example, on this
slide, each element begins with an imperative verb).
• You can also consult APA’s suggestions on formatting lists.
• End bullet points consistently, either with or without a period.
Slide Title
• Keep font of text consistent.
• Be sure headings are consistent in their spacing, placement, size, etc.
• Consider using the slide after the title slide to summarize your presentation’s points
(like an abstract for a paper).
Slide Title
Your slides can also contain entire paragraphs, like this one does. In both paragraphs and
bulleted lists in your presentation, citation rules apply just as they do in papers: when
using or referencing another author’s ideas, you must cite that source. When
incorporating a citation in a slide, do so just as you would in a traditional paper:
According to Jones (2020), presentations are not very different from papers.
• According to Smith and Cat (2020), you should make your presentation great, not
just good.
Use APA style rules to format any tables and figures in your presentation:

• Remember to adhere to any assignment guidelines regarding presentation format.
This template contains suggestions only.
• Keep in mind that there is no such thing as an “APA standard PowerPoint.” Review

Microsoft’s PowerPoint help and learning website.
Slide Title
• Always include a reference list at the end of your presentation, just like you would in
a paper. Reference list entries take the same format they would in a paper,
including a hanging indent. Visit the Common Reference List Examples page for the
correct APA format. Here are a few examples:
