Transitions Presentation Rubric 
Research your assigned Transitions topic. Submit one 8-10 page typed paper, double spaced, 12 point font following APA guidelines. Include a bibliography and abstract citing at least 5 resources used researching the paper. Paper will be graded on quality of research to support the topic, effective use of information gained through research, credibility of sources, content, grammar and mechanics, and bibliography (including evidence-based references). A study guide will be completed and emailed to Mrs. Paty one week prior to the presentation; the study guide will be posted on D2L. It is expected that the class audience will read the study guide and be prepared to participate and ask questions after the presentation. One presenter will be responsible for reviewing 5 sample NCLEX questions as a teaching strategy to educate the target audience.
