The use of curriculum objectives in nursing education.
This empirical study has its roots in the Finnish nursing education reform of the 1980s. The reform emphasized the formulation of national curriculum objectives and a criterion-oriented, responsive evaluation of learning outcomes. The data were collected by using a questionnaire, answered by Finnish graduating nursing students in 1990 (n = 379). The results indicate certain problems in the criterion-oriented evaluation.
