Hello Nursing Students, I am trying to gather some information as part of researching grading criteria used by Nursing Schools -- specifically for Nursing Fundamentals Class at this point but open to information on other Nursing classes that include Laboratory and Clinical time. In a nut shell, I am trying to figure out whether or not schools include something from the laboratory and clinical portions into the grading for the fundamentals class. For example, one school in Virginia has a eight semester hour class for nursing fundamentals and uses the following grading criteria: 5 exams - 60% Comprehensive Final - 30% HESI - 5% Class Assignments - 5% Note that there is nothing included as far as laboratory or clinical work and assignments -- so all of that work is not reflected into the final grade assigned to the eight semester hours. I would appreciate copies of your syllabus/grading rubric to help me with the data gathering portion of this research. Thanks, Bill Foley
