Evidence-Based Resource Assignment Outline and Rubric

Provide discussion related to management of your decision-making if the sources do not match. See grading criteria below for more information.

Present content regarding smoking cessation from the 3 sources and compare. Provide analysis of the strength of the sources and the provider is to manage the discrepancies of content.
