During each DNP 896 Course add a brief statement beside the appropriate DNP Essential/NKU DNP program outcome or sub-outcome/category stating how you met the outcome. If you have a document to support your statement, then upload the support document to the portfolio site in Canvas. For example, DNP Essential VII -1 states: Analyze epidemiological, bio-statistical, environmental, and other appropriate scientific data related to individual, aggregate, and population health. In the box beside the essential you could state “completed a paper which included epidemiologic and environmental principles in DNP 801.” Then upload your epidemiology paper to the portfolio repository Canvas site.

DNP Essentials and Student Learning Outcomes

DNP Essentials and Student Learning Outcomes

The same process is followed for your personal learning outcomes that you write in column 2 and meet each semester. You will record how you met the personal learning outcomes on the portfolio document in column three and then update supporting materials in the Canvas portfolio repository.
The DNP 896 faculty will evaluate the e-portfolio record and Canvas repository at the conclusion of each DNP 896 Course. Please see the rubric below. Remember it will take all four DNP 896 courses for you to meet the DNP Essentials and Program Outcomes. The Personal Learning Outcomes are written at the beginning of each DNP 896 course and met by the conclusion of each DNP 896 course. The e-portfolio record and updated portfolio repository are due on the 15 week of the semester. Please refer to the example and video posted
