Final Exam METHOD OF INSTRUCTION: Lecture, discussion, demonstration, small group work, videos, assigned readings, written assignments, computer assisted learning programs, nursing lab activities and clinical instruction will be utilized. THEORY EVALUATION: Evaluation of student progress will be the successful completion of the course outcomes which will be evaluated with module examinations, a comprehensive final exam, and a Pecha Kucha group assignment. Questions will be based on utilization of critical thinking skills and application of knowledge acquired in this, as well as previous courses. Questions may be multiple-choice, fill in the blank, multiple-answer, or other NCLEX alternate formats as applicable. All written work (theory and clinical) will be considered for determination of a course grade. CLINICAL EVALUATION: All required skill demonstrations must be completed satisfactorily in the nursing lab prior to clinical performance. Clinical performance is evaluated mutually by student and instructor using only a final semester Clinical Evaluation form. Clinical performance and written clinical assignments (Postpartum Clinical Packet, Nursery Clinical Packet, Labor and Delivery Clinical Packet, Medication Information Sheets, and Real Life Scenario Clinicals) will be used to determine clinical competency and the ability to generalize and transfer theory outcomes to the clinical settings.

In addition, a learner may not submit the same work for credit in more than one course. The disciplinary consequences of plagiarism and other forms of academic dishonest

7 include non-acceptance of work submitted, a failing grade in the course, and/or or other disciplinary action as outlined in Great Basin College s Student Conduct Policy.

At GBC, students are expected to assist in maintaining a class environment that is conducive to learning. It is required that students conduct themselves in a manner that does not disrupt the teaching or learning atmosphere. All classroom participants have the responsibility to maintain classroom and online discussions that are civil and not disruptive by being courteous and using respectful language. This courteous behavior continues beyond the classroom to any community interactions as a GBC nursing student. Be an engaged learner and encourage your fellow students to do so as well. For more information, see the Rules and Conduct and Procedures section of the GBC catalog. CAMPUS SECURITY: GBC is committed to the safety of our students and has a duty to promote awareness and prevention programs for violence on campus under the Jeanne Clery Act as well as the Campus SAVE (Sexual Violence Elimination Act) and VAWA (Violence Against Women Act), which are amendments to Clery.
