Discussion: Defining Scholarship
A hallmark of your education is your development as a scholar-practitioner. As a doctoral student, you have
been actively engaged in scholarly activities that support your growth as a scholar-practitioner. As you continue
to develop, implement, and evaluate your EBP assignment, you will be applying scholarship as you translate
research into practice. A key element of scholarship is dissemination.
As you prepare for this Discussion, consider the role of evaluation and dissemination in scholarship. If research
is not disseminated, can it be considered scholarship?
