meaning. The questions posed during the course of the semester encourage students to
observe their internship environments, look for opportunities for improvement, construct
a plan for improvement, and describe how they would implement this plan. These
assignments will not be individually graded but will serve as a template for the formation
of the final project.
The goal of the semester project is for the student to observe their internship environment
and by integrating knowledge and experience develop a unique idea that would improve
health care delivery at their site. The final project should be of a caliber that could
potentially be presented to the management team at the internship site to implement
positive change on a system or procedure they have observed at the site.
