Quality of nurse training programs requires clinical evaluation. The purpose of this study was to achieve a perspective of realities from viewpoint of nursing students during their internship and clerkship. This study was descriptive and quantitative; 180 nurse inters and nursing unit clerks were enrolled for the study. Data was collected using a researcher made questionnaire. Content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by a group of faculty members and clinical professors; reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha (0.89). The questionnaire consisted of two parts; demographic data and data related to clinical evaluation in four areas including content of evaluation, the role of instructor in evaluation, evaluation process and outcome of evaluation. The questionnaire was scored on a five-point Likert scale from always to never. At the end, there were two open questions about suggestions on clinical evaluation. Data were analyzed by SPSS22, descriptive and analytic statistics. Results showed that nurse interns evaluated the instructor as good (4.05 ± 0.06), evaluation content as average (3.65 ± 0.06), evaluation process as average (2.77 ± 0.76) and outcome of evaluation as poor (2.41 ± 0.69). Nursing unit clerks evaluated the instructor as good (3.84 ± 0.59), evaluation content as average (3.51 ± 0.68), evaluation process as average (2.60 ± 0.78) and outcome of evaluation as poor (2.56 ± 0.63). According to the results, quality of clinical evaluation of nursing students requires a review in existing processes and tools, as well as revision in programs and clinical evaluations by planners and instructors.

Background: Higher education institutions have executed policies and practices intended to determine and promote good teaching. Students’ evaluation of the teaching and learning process is seen as one measure of evaluating quality and effectiveness of instruction and courses. Policies and procedures guiding this process are discernible in universities, but it isoften not the case for nursing colleges.Objective: To analyse and describe the views of nursing students on block evaluation, and how feedback obtained from this process was managed.Method: A quantitative descriptive study was conducted amongst nursing students (n = 177) in their second to fourth year of training from one nursing college in KwaZulu-Natal. A questionnaire was administered by the researcher and data were analysed using the Statistical Package of Social Sciences Version 19.0.Results: The response rate was 145 (81.9%). The participants perceived the aim of block evaluation as improving the quality of teaching and enhancing their experiences as students.They questioned the significance of their input as stakeholders given that they had never been consulted about the development or review of the evaluation tool, or the administration process; and they often did not receive feedback from the evaluation they participated in.Conclusion: The college management should develop a clear organisational structure with supporting policies and operational guidelines for administering the evaluation process. The administration, implementation procedures, reporting of results and follow-up mechanisms should be made transparent and communicated to all concerned. Reports and actions related to these evaluations should provide feedback into relevant courses or programmes.Keywords: Student evaluation of teaching; perceptions; undergraduate nursing students; evaluation process

Background: The assessment of knowledge and skills plays an important part in student nurse’s progression because they need to demonstrate competency and confidence in the performance of clinical skills. OSCE has been recognized as the most reliable method for evaluation of clinical skills among Nursing students. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of OSCE on antenatal assessment among nursing students. Methods: An experimental approach with post-test only design was used to select 60 IV Year BSc Nursing students. They were selected by using a simple random sampling method. 30 were in the experimental group received planned teaching program on antenatal assessment and evaluated by OSCE, 30 were in the control group received traditional method of teaching on antenatal assessment and evaluated by traditional clinical evaluation (TCE). An observational checklist and the opinionnaire on the usefulness of OSCE were used to collect the data. Results: Average marks scored by the students who are evaluated by OSCE (21.96±1.44) were higher as compared to traditional clinical evaluation scoring (14.93±2.75) which was statistically significant (p< 0.001) Most of the students gave positive feedback on OSCE. Conclusion: Learning in the nursing clinical area gives present reality to nursing students to build up the information, abilities, dispositions, and skills. OSCE is an important, reasonable, helpful and acceptable method for assessing student’s clinical performance due to different positive particulars. The study concluded that OSCE was an effective method to evaluate the clinical skills of nursing students on antenatal examination.
