Based on your nursing practice or clinical practice experience (CPE), you must first identify a curriculum gap
or need (content-related) that will be used to develop a one-week module to be placed in an appropriate
course in one of the provided virtual academic settings. You will also identify the name of the college or
university, the corresponding type of program, and the course where the curriculum gap is identified, and
where you are proposing this module be added. You will summarize your findings and present them as a
formal curriculum proposal. The goal of your proposal is to report the results of your analysis of an existing
curriculum gap or need in nursing practice in the curriculum and propose a new one-week module within the
course, intended to address this curriculum gap or need. Professional development activities are an integral
aspect of the academic nurse educator role. By engaging in this learning opportunity, students will

understand how academic nurse educators support professional development goals through curriculum
analysis design and development.
To complete this task, use the “Indirect Care Experience Checklist” and ”Curriculum Proposal Template”
supporting documents to develop your proposal. On the Learning Resources page in Unit 1 of the course, as
well as after the rubric “Web Link’ section you will find a link to virtual academic settings. This link will
provide information about four different virtual academic institutions with course syllabi. Pick one college or
university and use the corresponding information. Find a course syllabus where you want to propose adding
your one-week module. Use the syllabus information to complete the modified course syllabus, Appendix A.
In this task, you will begin Part 1 of the curriculum proposal and complete the following sections:
introduction; literature review; application of the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and
Evaluation (ADDIE) model introduction; analysis phase; design phase; and development phase. Use the
attached “Indirect Care Experience Checklist” to guide you. The remaining sections of the curriculum
proposal (e.g., executive summary, proposal implementation phase, proposal evaluation phase, and
conclusion) will be completed as Part 2 in the C947 ILP5 Capstone assessment. There is a maximum page
limit of 60 pages for the entire proposal, which includes both Part 1 and Part 2. This task (Curriculum
Proposal Part 1) has a page limit of 40 pages; the title page does not count toward this number.
