Our society demands high quantity care and highly competent nurses. However, the supply of educational tools to both our faculty members and students seems overdue. There is a pressing need for further nursing education research on using the rubric in order to best prepare students for professional practice (Lasater, 2011). The state of science in nursing education is ripe for selecting the rubric as a research topic.}, doi = {10.1016/j.nedt.2011.04.007}, interhash = {c5380bd06fcdd0d2345deacae2793423}, intrahash = {883778ea0c3402a0857285025c638faf}, issn = {02606917}, journal = {Nurse Education Today}, keywords = {era-a-journal, nursing, rubrics, student-evaluation}, month = may, posted-at = {2011-07-15 07:26:39}, priority = {3}, timestamp = {2011-07-27T01:37:08.000+0200}, title = {{Using the analytic rubric as an evaluation tool in nursing education: The positive and the negative}}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nedt.2011.04.007}, year = 2011 }
