Practicum Experience Plan

Review your Clinical Skills Self-Assessment Form you submitted last  week, and think about areas for which you would like to gain  application-level experience and/or continued growth as an advanced  practice nurse. How can your experiences in the practicum help you  achieve these aims? There may be overlap between your skills goals and  your PEP goals.
Review the information related to developing objectives provided in  this week’s Learning Resources. Your practicum learning objectives that  you want to achieve during your practicum experience must be: 

Specific  
Measurable  
Attainable  
Results-focused  
Time-bound 
Reflective of the higher-order domains of Bloom’s taxonomy (i.e., application level and above)  

Discuss your professional aims and your  proposed practicum objectives with your Preceptor to ascertain if the  necessary resources are available at your practicum site.
Select one nursing theory and one counseling theory to best guide  your clinical practice. Explain why you selected these theories. Support  your approach with evidence-based literature.
Create a timeline of practicum activities that demonstrates how you  plan to meet these goals and objectives based on your practicum  requirements.
