How Do Evaluation and Assessment Work in Nursing Education?
Evaluation and assessment are integral to nursing education. They help ensure that students are meeting learning objectives and are competent to practice. Methods include: - Examinations: Written or oral tests to assess theoretical knowledge. - Practical Exams: Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) to evaluate clinical skills. - Portfolios: Collections of student work that demonstrate learning and professional development. - Feedback and Reflection: Continuous feedback from instructors and self-reflection by students to identify areas for improvement.
