I am teaching first semester BSN students their health assessment class. Our evaluation tools only say S, NI, or U when it comes to thier performance evaluations. I am looking for a more descriptive evaluation (like rubrics) to utilize. Does anyone have anything like that to share?

What about developing critical elements organized based on your class objectives?
Example:
If systems based, each system would be further divided in applicable physical assessment techniques for particular system , e.g. inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation.

Scoring can be in #10, 20, etc. elements (easier to grade for passing % score).
=/> 75% Satisfactory; 70-74% Needs improvment; Below 70% Unsatisfactory.

I have visited VickyRN's recommended site for nursing assessment performance rubrics and I found it helpful. But I have a different problem:
I am a new clinical instructor and I am at a loss about how to assess the case demonstrations of my students.

Is there anybody out there who can help me, please?

Thank you so much.
