The National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) is a summative assessment. Preparing a valid and reliable examination that includes multiple content and practice areas is a complex process. In conjunction with this week’s readings, examine the NCSBN Test Plan in the Evaluating Innovative Items for the NCLEX Part 1: Usability and Pilot Testing article. Comment on its construct, blueprints, rules for preparations, and administration. How does NCSBN know if it is testing essential knowledge for entry-level providers? Reflect on how you can apply this type of construct of a summative assessment to your program or course summative.
