Purpose
Within the MSN Specialties Track, you will engage and dialog with classmates in a Collaboration Café discussion assignment. The Collaboration Café is an interactive assignment that encourages meaningful application of course concepts, discussion of nurse-practice issues, and student leadership to prompt continued conversations in order to facilitate achievement of course learning outcomes. In order for students to lead and facilitate discussion within the collaboration café, course instructors will take a less active role in daily posting, but will remain present to monitor the discussion for compliance and to offer clarification.
Course Outcomes
This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:
- CO 1: Examine essential competencies and underpinnings across advanced nursing practice roles. (POs 2, 5)
- CO 2: Integrate concepts related to person-centered care in advanced nursing practice. (POs 1, 2, 3, 5)
- CO 5: Demonstrate professional competencies in the formation of the advanced nursing practice role. (POs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Assignment Overview
Like the weekly Threaded Discussion, the Collaboration Café opens on the Sunday preceding the start of a designated week and ends on Sunday at 11:59 pm MT at the end of the designated week (Weeks 1-7), and by Saturday at 11:59 pm MT at the end of Week 8.
In each Collaboration Café, students are expected to post a minimum of 2 postings, to include the following:
- Initial response
- Response to at least one peer on a separate day from the initial response
Dialogue must be substantive and collaborative in nature, addressing specific concepts and topics noted in the Collaboration Café question and prompting further discussion among peers.
Scholarly references are not required in the Collaboration Café discussions; however, if the student chooses to submit a reference, APA format must be followed. There may also be times when faculty will have you review a website or article. In cases like these, you must properly cite and reference according to APA to avoid plagiarism.
Faculty may submit any student’s post to Turnitin in order to verify originality of work. Plagiarism will result in a zero for the week. Uncivil comments toward peers or faculty, in any of the posts, will not be tolerated and will result in a zero for the week.
