Less Than SaEsfactory (80.00%)
Limited and/or vague summary of demographic of interest and communicable disease is provided. Overview does not offer a clear representaEon of informaEon necessary for epidemiological study.
Paper parEally describes the determinants of health in relaEon to disease development.
The communicable disease is described with some inaccuracies within the epidemiologic triangle. A visual descripEon of the factors and interacEon is not present.
Discussion of the role of the community health nurse is vague, with no integraEon of case finding, reporEng, data collecEng, data analysis, or follow-up skills. An incomplete explanaEon of why demographic data are necessary to community health is provided.
An agency or organizaEon is idenEfied, but discussion is vague or inaccurate in relaEon to the communicable disease chosen.
A discussion of the global implicaEon of the disease is vague, with no integraEon of how this is addressed in other countries or cultures and if the disease is endemic to a parEcular area. An example is not provided.
5
Thesis is insufficiently developed or vague. Purpose is not clear.
Sufficient jusEficaEon of claims is lacking. Argument lacks consistent unity. There are obvious flaws in the logic. Some sources have quesEonable credibility.
Frequent and repeEEve mechanical errors distract the reader. Inconsistencies in language choice (register) or word choice are present. Sentence structure is correct but not varied.
Appropriate template is used, but some elements are missing or mistaken. A lack of control with formadng is apparent.
DocumentaEon of sources is inconsistent or incorrect, as appropriate to assignment and style, with numerous formadng errors.

SaEsfactory (88.00%)
Overview of the demographic of interest and clinical descripEon of the communicable disease is presented with some inaccuracies of the clinical descriptors.
Paper idenEfies the determinants of health in relaEon to the communicable disease selected but does not include an explanaEon of their role in the development of disease.
The communicable disease is described accurately and clearly within the context of the epidemiologic triangle.
Discussion of the role of the community health nurses is limited, with a brief overview of skills associated with community assessment and planning. An explanaEon of why demographic data are necessary to community health is summarized.
An agency or organizaEon is idenEfied, but discussion regarding efforts to address communicable disease is lacking.
A discussion of the global implicaEon of the disease is limited, with some integraEon of how this is addressed in other countries or cultures and if the disease is endemic to a parEcular area. An example is provided.
