Concept Process Assignment Guidelines
PURPOSE
To integrate and build on basic concepts in support of critical thinking.
COURSE OUTCOMES This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes.
CO 1 Correlate lifestyle, environmental, and other influences with changes in levels of wellness. (POs 1 and 7)
CO 2 Explain the pathophysiologic processes of select health conditions. (PO 1)
CO 3 Predict clinical manifestations and complications for select disease processes. (POs 1 and 8)
DUE DATE
Refer to Course Calendar for details. The Late Assignment Policy applies to this assignment.
TOTAL POINTS POSSIBLE
50 Points
REQUIREMENTS
Access to ATI Active Learning Templates
PREPARING THE ASSIGNMENT
Obtain the Active Learning Template titled “Basic Concepts” and “Systems Disorder” from your ATI Account
DIRECTIONS AND ASSIGNMENT CRITERIA
Select a pathophysiology concept that you have not previously completed an active learning template for. Some
examples include but are not limited to: pathophysiology, etiology, iatrogenic, exogenous, prevention, mortality,
morbidity, manifestations, symptoms, communicable diseases, apoptosis, hyperplasia, ischemia, impaired gas
exchange, impaired mobility, or impaired perfusion.
Complete the three areas of the template describing in detail this concept.
Select a disease process from the current organ system you are studying, that you have not previously
completed an active learning template for. Some examples include but are not limited to: pneumonia, heart
failure, hyperthyroidism, colon cancer, renal failure, arthritis.
Complete the top three boxes, the Assessment and Safety Concerns area of the form. Be prepared to submit,
present and/or teach this concept to others based on your faculty member’s instructions. In addition, complete
as much of the Patient Centered Care area as you are able based on your own research and/or collaboration with
your peers or faculty.
Create a 1 page analysis describing how the selected concept relates to the selected systems disorder. Be
prepared to present and/or submit your paper.

The following is an example to help clarify the assignment guidelines:
After completing the two templates below, the analysis paper might include a discussion of how immobility will
affect the particular selected disorder (in this case fracture). The analysis might include how immobility will
increase complications if patient is unable to walk, or if the patient does not have access to a walker. It may also
include the possibility the patient will be immobile in a bed right after surgical repair, and how this may affect
the outcome of the patient. Furthermore, highlights on how a specific patient age could affect immobility (i.e.
elderly are more likely to fracture hips). Reviewing how immobility may affect other types of fractures could be
included.
