Homework: Assessment Strategies
Assessments provide feedback on student knowledge, performance, and needs. They also inform the instructor on whether learning outcomes are being met. It is important for the nurse educator to consider that there is a variety of ways in which student learning can be evaluated. Student learning should be assessed throughout the learning process and at the end of learning. Instructors must determine what evidence indicates that learning has occurred. The purpose of this homework is to choose assessment strategies based on evidence-based practices.
