Description
Practicum Project Proposal (Part I to IV) (45 points)
This project will be completed in 4 parts before the student submits the final capstone
project:
Topic:
The student will begin an outline of the proposed problem/issue/project. The instructor will work
closely with the student to guide progress. The student will identify and discuss a set of
individualized practicum goals and student-specific clinical objectives with preceptor and
faculty. Practicum objectives should be congruent with and complement the course objectives.
Practicum objectives must be measurable and evaluated at the end of each clinical day. If
objective is not met, it can be used in subsequent clinical day until it is met. Practicum objectives
should reflect the level of competency and skill mastery the student would like to achieve by the
end of the practicum. Specific practicum objectives should be sufficiently limited in number so
that appropriate attention can be directed towards each. Typically, 2-3 objectives per practicum
day are adequate. A method for evaluation of individual objectives should be planned and
completed. An appropriate venue for presentation or implementation will be selected by the
preceptor.
c. Individual Practicum Project Presentation (5 points)
At the end of the project, the student will prepare a 15-20 slide Microsoft PowerPoint
presentation to present the scholarly project on the date designated by the course faculty.
d. Final Capstone Project (15 points)

e. Portfolio (S/U)
Prepare a portfolio based on provided guidelines for midterm and final evaluations. Portfolio
must also include a copy of all practicum logs and should be uploaded on Blackboard and
Typhon.
