III. COURSE POLICIES & CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS
Grading Policy and Point Breakdown
The final grade for the Capstone is either satisfactory/pass or unsatisfactory/fail. There are no
weekly assignments or points given. Faculty mentors will give feedback on student submissions
that require revisions. If students miss the due dates on the course timeline, faculty will
contact you to inquire about your progress. A lack of progress on the Capstone may lead to an
unsatisfactory grade which will require the student to repeat the Capstone.
Policy for Missed or Late Work
4
BHIS 593 Health Informatics Capstone
All assignments, unless otherwise noted, must be submitted via Blackboard. There is a
designated link to submit each assignment. An absence (e.g. an out of town business trip, job
interview or a vacation) does not excuse the student from the responsibility of completing
assignments. If a student does not meet an assigned deadline, this will be reviewed by the
faculty mentor and assessed as to the ability to satisfactorily complete the capstone.
Because the course is based on a single capstone paper or project there is no make-up work. If
personal difficulties develop due to accidents, surgeries, and / or illness, please notify your
faculty mentor and / or your student advisor as soon as feasible so your grade / graduate
standing are not jeopardized. If you are unable to participate as expected in this or any other
course, inform the instructor and your student advisor as soon as possible so that appropriate
next steps such as withdrawal or an incomplete grade may be considered. If you do not
withdraw, or take appropriate steps, an unsatisfactory grade will be given. Do not wait until
the end of the course to communicate you are having personal difficulties.
Attendance / Participation Policy
Students must check course announcements, the general discussion board, and UIC emails
daily. Students are expected to prepare for the class by reading assigned reading materials and
following assignment instructions. Attendance in an online course means logging into
Blackboard Learn on a daily basis and participating in all activities required by the assigned
deadline dates and times outlined in the class calendar.
Please email your instructor if you face an unexpected situation that may impede your
attendance, participation in required class and exam sessions, or timely completion of
assignments.
Other Course Policies
Communication – Expectations, Policies, and Community Building
Online Course Communication Guidelines (Netiquette)
• Be mindful of different cultural and linguistic backgrounds, as well as different political
ideologies and religious beliefs.
• Use good judgment when composing your written responses. Swearing and profanity is
unacceptable. Also consider that slang terms can be misunderstood or misinterpreted.
• Be careful using all capital letters when composing your written responses. This can be
considered “shouting” on the Internet and is regarded as impolite or aggressive. It can
also be stressful on the eye when trying to read your message.
• Be respectful of others’ views and opinions.
5
BHIS 593 Health Informatics Capstone
•
•
•
Be careful when using acronyms. If you use an acronym it is best to spell out its meaning
first, then put the acronym in parentheses afterward, for example: Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQs). After that you can use the acronym freely throughout your message.
Use good grammar and spelling in written communications.
In emails, always identify yourself and what class and section you are in. It is a good
practice to put your course and section in the subject line. This helps your instructor
identify course related emails.
Community Agreement: Online Etiquette
• Be in a quiet place and use headphones
• Mute microphone unless talking
• Video on when speaking or engaging in group activities
• Quit all other screens (email, text, social media) to create a classroom “presence” (also
helps with internet stability)
• Actively participate in class sessions
• Raise hand if you have a question to ask verbally
• Use Chat feature if you prefer to type your question
Privacy Notification and Policy for Video Recording of Synchronous Class
Sessions
We will record optional live (synchronous) sessions for students who are unable to attend live
lectures. Recordings will be posted to Blackboard, shared only with the students enrolled in the
course, and be deleted at the end of the term. Students are prohibited from recording and
distributing recorded class sessions. The recording feature for others is disabled so that no one
else will be able to record this session through Zoom, Blackboard Collaborate, Webex, or
Echo360. Recording by other means is not permitted. The recorded class sessions will be posted
on our Blackboard class website unless otherwise notified.
If you have privacy concerns and do not wish to appear in the recording, turn OFF your video. If
you would like to ask a question, you may do so privately through the chat feature by
addressing your question to faculty only (and not to “everyone”), or you may contact faculty by
by email. If you have questions or concerns about this video recording policy, please contact
your faculty mentor before the end of the first week of class.
Drop/Withdraw Course Information
Dropping a course and withdrawing from a course/semester are different. After the university’s
official drop period, but through the end of the fourth week (Friday at 5 p.m.) of a fall/spring
semester eight-week course or summer-B eight-week course, students can drop a course with
Director of Graduate Study approval. Tuition refunds will be prorated according to published
UIC policies. After the four-week deadline, a petition process is required and may only be
applied to an extenuating circumstance (this does not include an unsatisfactory grade or a
6
BHIS 593 Health Informatics Capstone
sudden work-related problem); the petition must be approved by the Director of Graduate
Studies (Professor Eric Swirsky).
Academic Integrity
As a student and member of the UIC community, you are expected to adhere to the Community
Standards of academic integrity, accountability, and respect. Please review the UIC Student
Disciplinary Policy for additional information.
By submitting your assignments for grading you acknowledge these terms, you declare that
your work is solely your own, and you promise that, unless authorized by the instructor or
proctor, you have not communicated with anyone in any way during an exam or other online
assessment. Let’s embrace what it means to be a UIC community member and together be
committed to the values of integrity. Commit to upholding a class honor code in which we trust
one another and engage only in behaviors that reflect our community standards of academic
integrity.
Use of AI Tools
Students may use advanced automated tools (artificial intelligence or machine learning tools
such as ChatGPT or Dall-E 2) on assignments in this course if instructor permission is obtained
in advance. Permission will not be granted to use AI tools for the Narrative Statement of
Competence as it is a personal point of view from the student themselves. Unless given
permission to use those tools, each student is expected to complete their capstone written
assignment without assistance from AI tools.
If permission has been granted, students must properly document and credit using approved
APA guidelines: https://apastyle.apa.org/blog/how-to-cite-chatgpt
Along with citation in the references section, students will include a full version of the text of all
prompts/queries submitted and the output generated in an appendix. Material generated
using other AI tools should follow a similar citation convention.
Email Expectations
Students are responsible for all information instructors send to your UIC email and Blackboard
accounts. Faculty messages should be regularly monitored and read in a timely fashion.

Capstone Options
Students have the following options for completing the capstone/ culminating experience of the MSHI
program. It is recommended that student select a topic on which they want to develop a deeper
understanding and is potentially an area in which they would like to work during their health informatics
careers. The deadline for you to select your capstone assignment and notify your faculty is friday of the
first week.
Individual Written Assignment
1. Write a Literature Review Paper. This paper has the following requirements:
• Topic approved by faculty
• Paper with the following components:
o Introduction – 2-3 paragraphs describing the topic and its importance (no longer than 1
page)
o Description of Methods used to search the literature. – This is one paragraph describing
the databases searches, the key words used and the process followed for conducting
the search of the literature. (see example below)
o Literature Review – 4-5 pages
o Conclusion – 2-3 paragraphs summarizing the main points from the literature review
o 15 references on the topic
Example: Methods
This topic was researched using google scholar and the UIC library to search the following
keywords and terms: electronic alerts and opioid abuse, pharmacist role and opioid
epidemic, PDMP and controlled substance abuse reduction, safety alerts, and opioid
overdose risk, COVID and opioid crisis, and naloxone and opioid overdose. Peer-reviewed
articles from PubMed Central, Science Direct, and Journal of Pain were used. The
information published by organizations such as CDC and PDMP and current COVID opioidrelated articles from the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and the American
Medical Association (AMA) were also included.
2. Develop a project proposal or presentation. Students might use this to present themselves during a
job interview. Students may choose to further develop an assignment done during the MSHI
program. If required to present a “passion project” or proposal on a job interview, what would you
choose? This scenario is very likely to occur in the job search and is an opportunity to prepare to
show potential employers your best work. This exercise has the following requirements:
• Topic approved by faculty
• Topic is relevant to the health informatics job market, as indicated by a job family or a specific
posting example (to be attached, by the student, to a topic proposal)
• Proposal includes comprehensive applied research component that includes business, clinical,
and technical perspectives – and showcases a broad range of coverage presented in the MSHI
program.
1
Capstone Options
•
•
•
•
Students who have pursued specific MSHI concentrations, i.e. Consumer and Mobile Health
Informatics, Leadership in Health Informatics or Healthcare Data Science, are encouraged to
target jobs in their selected track.
Students perform significant background research, in preparation for their presentation, with
the following in mind:
o Target job requirements
o Necessary skills
o Industry and subdomain background
o Deep clinical research into the topic
o Business overview of the opportunities, with specific emphasis on outcomes and
benefits, as well as anticipation of the challenges
o Technical concepts necessary to build a proposed product or service
Deep applied research into the above topics must result in a brief presentation of no longer than
15 minutes, with use of the PPT (or similar computer application) slides, oriented at a target
employer. The presentation WILL NOT go into depth, but will be masterfully crafted to deliver a
concise version in 15 minutes. Students must be ready to take any questions and handle a
discussion where they would use all or part of the research they completed in preparation for
the presentation.
The presentation will be scheduled towards end of the academic term, based on faculty and
student availability.
3. Write a Narrative Statement of Competence. This is a final synthesis of their MSHI learning
experience with the following requirements:
Part I: Students reflect on their experience in the program: what led them to HI; their greatest
challenge and greatest success as an HI student; and the most impactful takeaways from the
program.
•
Think back to when you started the program, what were your expectations? Now that you
are at the end, did you get what you expected? What are some of the biggest things you
will take away (value) you got from the program? How do you view your competence as a
health informatician?
Part II: Students examine professionalism, collaborative practice, and leadership (F8, 9, 10), the
meaning of those competencies to them, their importance to the HI field; and how they see
themselves in HI roles practicing these concepts in their future work.
Part III: Students explore the HI field and generate a set of intentions for the future: their goals for
their first five years post-graduation; their vision of their ultimate role in the field; the challenges
they anticipate; and the tools/skills they will use to meet those challenges.
•
•
What are the competencies you have developed throughout the program that you think will
help you build your health informatics career?
Is there any specific knowledge or skill that you developed that you see as being particularly
valuable?
2
Capstone Options
•
Articulate how their MSHI will apply to the work they will do.
