Day 5 - Asessment of Practice
The students presented a summary of their discussions on anxiety and fears about practice placement assessment . It was interesting to hear that many students were anxious about whether they will pass or fail practice. The Italian students were also anxious about the type of mentor they will be allocated and whether they will get along with the person. The Finish students reported that they are not anxious about passing or failing practice as they are well prepared for placements and also they have a mid-point interview where the mentor informs them of their level of performance indicating if the student needs to improve. The Maltese practice assessment is graded (4 levels ranging from excellent to ''fail'') which is the only country that assesses practice by grading practice assessments. However Middlesex University is also considering introducing grading in practice assessments.
