Abstract
A Physical Assessment Classes is designed on the basis of a theory of performance assessment. It is intended as a means of finding out ways of making more accurate measurements of how far the students have gone to acquire nursing skills. This study examines those main effects which a special program of the course had on the students concerned when it was conducted in April - July, 2014. When performance activities are really so interesting and attractive to students, and when the assessment standards and processes are disclosed, they can have a clear idea of what they need to know on their way to professional practices of nursing care. By critically examining themselves and evaluating one another, they can learn to apply their knowledge and skills in the most proper way that their situation allows. They can learn ways of improving themselves.
