Universal Energy
Module 4 Scholarly Assignment on Systems Approach, Human Existence, and Universal
Energy
Ensure it fully addresses all components of the grading guideline:
Component 1 (Insights) — Includes six one-sentence bullet points demonstrating new
understanding of each theory (Roy, King, Neuman, Rogers, Newman, Parse) and
connects them to simulation-based nursing for 10–12 grade high school students.
Component 2 (Resources) — Provides two properly cited scholarly resources (one from
the systems perspective and one from the human existence/universal energy viewpoint)
with brief summaries and clear explanations of their benefits for teaching through
simulation.
Component 3 (Application) — Clearly explains, in bullet or paragraph form, how the
theories (Neuman, King, Parse) can be applied to simulation-based clinical skill
development for high school students.
APA Formatting — Follows APA 7th edition guidelines, including proper in-text
citations, a title page, and a reference page.
, Component 1: Insights – Understanding of Nursing Theories
• Roy’s Adaptation Model emphasizes that nursing facilitates adaptive responses to
environmental stimuli, which can be simulated for high school students to develop
critical thinking in patient adaptation scenarios.
• King’s Theory of Goal Attainment focuses on nurse-patient interactions to achieve
health goals, applicable to simulation exercises where students practice effective
communication and mutual goal-setting.
• Neuman’s Systems Model highlights holistic care and stressor management, which
helps students understand preventive care through system-based simulation exercises.
• Rogers’ Science of Unitary Human Beings underscores energy field balance, which can
be represented in simulations that teach mind-body harmony and holistic well-being.
• Newman’s Health as Expanding Consciousness promotes awareness and pattern
recognition, allowing simulation participants to link symptom patterns to wellness states.
• Parse’s Human Becoming Theory values meaning, rhythm, and transcendence, inspiring
simulations that promote empathy and understanding of human experiences in care
situations.
