The formative assessment questionnaire consists of five questions on module population health.
Each question is aligned with specific course objectives and student learning objectives (SLO) to
ensure a comprehensive measurement of progress.
The first question requires selecting the correct choice for five Social Determinants of
Health (SDOH) domains, which aligns with the course objective of categorizing health
disparities and obstacles to health-promoting behavior adoption.
The second question asks students to identify the correct domain of SDOH, aligning with
the course objective of analyzing how SDOH affects patients' decision-making.
The third question involves analyzing SDOH domain objectives, aligning with the course
objective of analyzing SDOH's impact on patient decision-making and the SLO of examining the
impact of patient-centered education and health promotion by the community health nurse.
The fourth question presents a true/false statement about one of the community health
nurse's roles, aligning with the SLO on the impact of patient-centered education and health
promotion by the community health nurse.
The fifth question also provides a true/false statement about the community health nurse's
role, aligning with the SLO of summarizing health assessment data and research to provide care
for diverse patients and communities.
Feedback
Immediate feedback serves as the foundation for formative assessment. According to Dennison
et al. (2015), formative evaluation is a continuous process that offers both the instructor and
students feedback on their progress toward achieving specific learning outcomes (SLOs) and
learning objectives. This type of evaluation helps pinpoint areas that require improvement and
enables adjustments in instruction or study strategies to enhance learning.
