Succeeding in Essays, Exams and OSCEs for Nursing Students



May 2012 | 120 pages | Learning Matters
The word 'assessment' can strike terror into any student. However, providing evidence of knowledge and skills for professional practice is an integral and essential part of university life as a nursing student.

This book helps nursing students better understand the processes of assessment so that every student can achieve their potential in their studies. It looks at each of the major forms of assessment including essays, exams, portfolios, presentations, OSCEs and practice assessments. It specifically addresses the needs of nursing students on new degree courses and therefore gives a clear insight on how to succeed as a student nurse.

I am currently planning a module which will utilise the osce as an assessment tool and was looking forward to reviewing this text. Unfortunately, I did not receive the book.
