This book investigates the education and assessment of student
midwives in clinical practice, paying particular attention to how
their practice is graded. Chenery-Morris brings primary research,
which explores students, mentors, and midwifery lecturers
perspectives of practice learning and its assessment, together with
the international literature on clinical knowledge, teaching and
learning in practice and assessment of students drawn from a range
of healthcare and education professions. Discussing how practice is
graded, what constitutes valid practice knowledge, learning in
clinical practice, evaluating practice learning and failing
students, this book uses Basil Bernstein's theories to throw light
on how we assess and whether we should assess performance in
addition to whether a student is competent to practise. This is an
important contribution to the field of midwifery education. It will
also be relevant to those with an interest in practice education
from a range of healthcare professions.
