Evaluation of a concept-based curriculum: A tool and process

Nursing education has heeded the calls of health experts, revising nursing curricula to move from a content focus to a conceptual model that emphasizes the learning process and evidence-based pedagogy. Little has been published about processes appropriate for evaluation of this new curriculum model. This paper describes the comprehensive evaluation process of a concept-based, pre-licensure nursing curriculum and the tool used for documentation. Benefits and drawbacks of the process and tool are shared.
