SNAPPS (summarize, narrow, analyze, probe, plan, and select)

Week 5

assignment

Purpose

SNAPPS is a learner-centered approach to case presentation

in the clinical setting. This model allows the student to take an active role

in their educational encounter by discussing the patient encounter beyond the

facts, verbalizing their clinical reasoning, asking questions, and engaging in

follow-up learning pertinent to the educational encounter. This exercise is

designed to develop the student’s ability to organize patient information in a

meaningful way and guide the student in their oral patient presentations in the

clinical setting. SNAPPS (summarize, narrow, analyze, probe, plan, and select).

Activity Learning Outcomes

Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the

ability to:

ORDER A PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPER HERE

1) Summarize

patient findings into an organized oral presentation. (CO 1, 6)

2) Demonstrate

clinical reasoning skills. (CO 1)

3) Identify

their own knowledge gaps and inquire about uncertainties, difficulties, or

alternative approaches. (CO 2)

4) State a

diagnostic and therapeutic plan for management of a patient. (CO 4)

5) Select a

case-related issue for self-study. (CO 3, 4)

Due Date:

The oral presentation and written assignment are due by

Sunday 11:59 p.m. MT.

Total Points Possible:

100

REQUIREMENTS:

1. Using a

patient seen in their clinical setting, students will give an oral presentation

(via Voice Thread or Kaltura) using the 6-step learner-centered SNAPPS model

to:

• Summarize

briefly the history and findings;

• Narrow

the differential to three relevant possibilities;

• Analyze

the differential by comparing and contrasting the possibilities;

• Probe theb preceptor/instructor by asking questions about uncertainties, difficulties, or

alternative approaches; SNAPPS (summarize, narrow, analyze, probe, plan, and select).

• Plan

management for the patient’s medical issues; and

• Select a

case-related issue for self-directed learning

2. In

addition to the oral presentation, the student will submit a written summary

using the template provided.

3. As part

of the summary, the student will research the self-directed learning topic that

was identified in the oral presentation to provide a written summary of what

was learned using appropriate evidence-based, scholarly references.

4. In-text

citations and reference list provided must be in APA format.

5. The

presentation must be submitted to the Week 5 discussion board before Sunday,

11:59 p.m. MT. The written portion of

the assignment must be submitted on the template provided to the assignment box

before Sunday, 11:59 p.m. MT. SNAPPS (summarize, narrow, analyze, probe, plan, and select).

PREPARING THE PAPER

The written portion of this assignment is to be completed on

the corresponding SNAPPS WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT TEMPLATE which will be submitted to

the assignment box. There is also a

SNAPPS ORAL PRESENTATION TEMPLATE which should serve as a guide for the oral

presentation only (it is NOT submitted). Correct grammar, punctuation, and

spelling should be observed. In-text

citations and reference page should follow APA format. Scholarly evidence-based

medicine (EBM) references must be used.

Additionally, the following parameters should be set in the

template before you begin:

• Font:

Times New Roman 11pt

• Single

space

• Spacing

set at 0pt before and after paragraphs (under page layout)

Category Points % Description

Summarize 10 10% A

brief and concise oral summary is presented from the pertinent facts.

Narrow the Differential Diagnosis 20 20% A minimum of two (2) but no more than

four (4) diagnoses are given in the differential.

Analyze the Differential 20 20% Differential

is analyzed using key findings to argue for and against hypothesis and ranks

the diagnoses in order of high to low likelihood.

Probe the Preceptor 10 10% Gaps,

points of confusion or dilemmas are identified in relation to the problem.

Plan Management 20 20% A

novice level diagnostic and therapeutic plan to manage the problem is proposed.

Self-Directed Learning 10 10% One

issue for self-directed learning as it relates to the case study is identified.

Paper Format 10 10% Self-directed

learning topic is researched and a written summary of what was learned is

submitted on the SNAPPS presentation TEMPLATE, using appropriate scholarly

references.

Total 100 100% A

quality assignment will meet or exceed all of the above requirements. SNAPPS (summarize, narrow, analyze, probe, plan, and select).
