Assessment structure There are four components to this assessment. Each should be approximately 500 words in length and each carries the same amount of marks.

1. Describe the values you bring to nursing (a maximum of 3 values). Support your discussion with the academic literature In this section you should provide an account of the values you bring to nursing.
2. Drawing on academic literature, explain why you feel these are important Here you should explain why your values are important to patient care. This should be supported by reference to relevant academic literature. For example, if you are committed to valuing diversity and compassion, what does the literature tell you about why these things are important?
3. Describe a situation or experience where one of your values has been challenged or tested and explain how you managed this. Support your discussion with academic literature. There are a number of ways in which you might approach this. For example, you might write about an occasion when you felt unable to act in way which is consistent your chosen value – how did this feel and what did you do? Alternatively you might chose to write about an experience where, as a result of reading or teaching, your understanding or beliefs about a value changed.
4. Describe the learning you took from that experience and, drawing on relevant academic literature, explain how it will change your future practice or thinking. How did the experience of challenge change your thinking and how will it impact your practice in the future.

Formative assessment You are encouraged to discuss your ideas with your peers and to bring any questions you may have to the drop-in sessions.

We will be holding an assessment focused tutorial on week five in the afternoon session of your weekly class.

You should also take the opportunity to submit a draft of your work via Turnitin which will provide you with an originality report.

Self assessment of your own work Most importantly, assess your own work as you write. You can do this by using the following checklist:

1. Does what you have written address the assessment guidance? Is each section approximately 500 words?
2. B. Is there a clear narrative which links the sentences and paragraphs within each section?
3. Does what you have written accurately represent your ideas?
4. Have you drawn on relevant academic literature where appropriate?
