Using the analytic rubric as an evaluation tool in nursing education: the positive and the negative.
It is imperative for nurse educators to provide accurate student evaluations to prepare them for the workplace. The impetus for transformation in nursing education has created the need for educators to effectively evaluate the quality of student achievement and learning through the educational process. Therefore, a rubric that consistently assesses student performance and provides meaningful feedback is essential in today's learning environment. If students are not given feedback that is consistent or meaningful, then they may feel their grades are not valid, thus sending mixed messages to the student. If expectations are not clear, the unacceptable performance may transfer into the work environment.
