In response to the challenge of teaching health assessment to large groups of entry-level BSN students with minimal experience in the health professions and a faculty belief that theory and practice are best actualized with small groups, a new health assessment course was implemented. Based on a philosophy of student accountability and self-direction in learning, faculty willingness to try new teaching strategies, and using computer testing, a successful course was developed. Students rotated through specific small group clinical labs while preparing with textbooks, study questions, videotapes, and computer-assisted instruction. Evaluation methods based on case application and the use of computer testing technology were implemented for this course. The result was increased satisfaction for the faculty and the students with enhanced application experiences supportive of the clinical practice.
为应对向大量刚开始学习护理学学士课程、在医疗行业经验极少的学生教授健康评估这一挑战，同时鉴于教师们认为理论与实践在小组教学中能得到最佳实现，于是开设了一门新的健康评估课程。基于学生在学习中的责任感和自主学习理念、教师尝试新教学策略的意愿以及计算机测试的应用，一门成功的课程得以开发。学生们在通过教科书、学习问题、录像带和计算机辅助教学进行准备的同时，轮流参加特定的小组临床实验室。该课程采用了基于案例应用和计算机测试技术的评估方法。结果是教师和学生的满意度提高，应用体验得到增强，对临床实践起到了支持作用。
