Assessing Student Clinical Performance

Clinical evaluation of students in online courses and programs presents challenges to faculty members and program administrators. When using an online delivery mode, it is critical to ensure the clinical competence of nursing students. Although the didactic component of nursing courses may lend itself well to online delivery, teaching and evaluating clinical skills can prove more challenging in an online context (Bouchoucha, Wikander, & Wilkin, 2013).

Methods for evaluating student clinical performance in an online course format usually involve one or more of the following approaches:

Use of preceptors to observe and evaluate performance

The faculty member travels to the student’s location to observe directly student performance

On-campus or regional evaluation of skills in a simulated setting or with live models or standardized patients

Use of teleconferencing, video recording, live streaming, or similar technologies (National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculties [NONPF], 2003)
