Abstract: | Skill assessment is an enduring issue for nurses both in the nursing education and practice. Emphasis is placed upon assessment for the attainment of learning outcomes within courses of education, at the expense of skill maintenance and skill development within practice. The concept of "sustainable assessment" combines and encourages both ideas and the role of judgement in assessment is crucial to this. Within courses of nursing education, skill is invariably guided and eventually assessed by the aid of an expert in the field, a connoisseur who applies the judgement of the specialist and delivers the criticism of connoisseur in the form of feedback. This paper concludes that the utilisation of this feedback to develop the students' ability to help judge their own practice is central to the notion of sustainable assessment and calls for discussion and research into this emerging field of enquiry. |
