Asynchronous Learning Activity 1: Case Study
Step 1: Read the fifth case study in the Knowledge to Action: A Knowledge Translation Casebook titled “Bringing Liver Disease Home: NCRTP-HepC”.
Step 2: Reflect on the following questions:
- What are the implications of personal experience and viewpoint for researchers?
- How is knowledge altered as it travels among stakeholders and why does this occur?
- What role does organizational culture play in the movement of knowledge?
- By which means can we increasingly associate the production of knowledge with its management, with its synthesis and brokering, and with its utilization?
- Do you think knowledge translation is a “two-way street”, that is, knowledge changes and in doing so, it changes the way it is applied?
Step 4: Before you submit your work, assess your written summary by considering the following questions:
- Is my summary within the prescribed word count of 500 to 750 words?
- Have I demonstrated clear utilization and comprehension of the required readings in my writing?
- Have I thoroughly addressed all the questions outlined in step two of the assignment?
