Emergency Medical Services Education

March 13, 2017 – P120

Assignment – You are to pick a topic of your choice relating to the field of emergency medical services. This topic must be submitted to the designated instructor for approval, by email. Duplication of topics will not be allowed; a student who first submits a particular topic, will own it. Once you have been given approval, you will thoroughly research the topic, which will require effort on your part. You should plan on visiting an academic library (electronically if you wish) to consult multiple references on your chosen topic. Sources of information may include journals, textbooks, Internet information (must be scholarly or government sites; no wikipedia), research documents, personal interviews (experts), or other appropriate reference material.

Purpose – This assignment is meant to be an opportunity for you to look closely at an issue that interests you and that you would like to learn more about. Nearly all subjects, even clinical topics will often involve some type of controversy. You are to present all sides (pro and con) and weigh in with your opinion. Your opinion, however, must be supported by facts. As part of our goal to make you responsible professionals who are able to think critically and guide our profession in the future, we feel that this is an important project for you to complete. Failure to complete this assignment satisfactorily will result in failure of the program due to incomplete coursework.
