Exploring the Feasibility of Using Knowledge Surveys to Increase Student Knowledge, Clinical Skills and Assess Student Perceptions

Abstract

This study explored the feasibility of using knowledge surveys (KSs) in a pre-licensure professional nursing program using cognitive and behavioral outcomes and illustrates how profession-specific competencies can be imbedded into a KS. This study introduces the KS as a potentially useful tool for formative and summative application in nursing education.
