Re:Topic 1 DQ 1

I have always thought that GCU has such a thorough and extensive library. I believe that is what makes its online programs so successful. Since nursing is a profession that heavily relies on EBP and clinical research, this will be very important to our capstone projects. After looking at the Research and and Resources home page, I feel the journal articles and the Nursing & Health Sciences Resources will be the two best resources for the topic of my EBP proposal topic. Both areas will take me to specific nursing research articles, databases and EBP information. This will allow me to find a direct range of references to discuss my specific proposal topic. When its comes to Google Scholar, there is just too much information, even slightly related to the topic searched. Then it becomes time consuming to sort through it all and deciding what is pertinent and what isn't; but more importantly what is fact-based, rather than assumption based.

I searched my topic and already came back with a large of amount of information. This makes me excited about my subject and has me thinking ahead on how I want to present this topic.
