External Examiners: International Nursing Collaboration Helping The World
Be A Better Place!
In the dawning of this 21st Century mass communication, air travel, and World
Wide Web, the need for global considerations in nursing and nursing education
has surfaced as a strong force. Nurses who serve as external examiners in
international sites are participating in international collaboration in nursing
education. The external examiner is defined as a visiting assessor of high
academic reputation with objectivity and integrity, who ensures that examination
procedures are conducted according to regulations governing the academic degree.
A long-standing British tradition in higher education, external examiners
share in the academic effort of evaluating student courses and assessment
strategies.
Online Degrees Gain Favor
Online credentials are being generally accepted by employers as they are
being forced to broaden their views because more people are earning degrees
over the Internet. One nationwide survey estimates that 61% of employers find
online degrees up to standard, but not as credible as traditional degrees.
The question was posed to 239 employers of all sizes about their viewpoints
and observations toward online degrees. In spite of the feelings of some,
26% of employers find online bachelor's degrees as credible as offline ones.
Only 13% say online degrees are entirely objectionable. Fascinatingly, employers
seem more open-minded of online graduate degrees, with 37% saying they are
as reliable and credible as traditional graduate degrees.
Associate Nursing Degree Inner City Research
This study investigated the effectiveness of non-intellective compared to intellective thinkers as predictors of academic performance in an associate degree nursing program. Specifically, the inner city college study examined how different coping style, personal problems, age, marital status, and employment status compared with academic achievement test scores and high school grade point average in predicting the first year academic performance of nursing students admitted under open admissions.
