ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION STRATEGIES 2
Assessment and Evaluation Strategies for Measuring Student Learning
B1: Alignment
Each item in the assessment activity aligns with a course objective or student learning
outcome in the summative objective assessment template. The first assessment item asks what
best defines an aggregate. The correct answer is A: a subgroup or population that shares
characteristics or concerns. This aligns with course objective one because students can analyze
, epidemiological information from the community. Using the correct epidemiological
terminology, students can analyze the criteria for an aggregate population.
The second assessment item asks the student which activity best reflects the public health
essentials for which a public health community nurse is responsible for executing. The correct
answer is D: identifies population-focused needs among the clients within their jurisdiction. This
aligns with course objective two because it relates to implementing future strategies to prevent
illness in the community. This answer is the fundamental basis of the public health nurse's role,
which will help build on further knowledge.
The third assessment item asks the student what epidemiology is primarily concerned
with. The correct answer is B: determinants, occurrence, and distribution of health and disease
in a population. This aligns with course objective one, where students can analyze
epidemiological information from the community. Students will need to comprehend the
foundation of epidemiology before they can build further knowledge on the subject matter.
The fourth assessment asks the students what the measure of new disease cases in a
population during a specific period is called. The correct answer is C: incidence. This aligns
with student learning outcome one, where students can identify various diseases within the
community, including the detection, causes, patterns, and control of diseases. Students can
