Answer to Question 1

C
Change champions are practitioners from the local peer group who continually promote evi-dence-based practice through education, encouraging peers to align their practice with the evi-dence, demonstrate skills and knowledge necessary to carry out the evidence-based practice, and teach new and existing personnel about the evidence-based practice (Titler & Everett, 2001).

Answer to Question 2

C
Research has shown that group size is important. Too small a group means a limited number of options generated. Too large a group can mean lack of structure or lack of meaningful discussion.
