| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to determine if there was commonality amongst teachers, in perceptions of the role of student self-assessment in the nursing programme. Four nurse educators, who were teaching and supervising students undertaking self-assessment in clinical practice, participated in a semi-structured interview. Three focus questions guided the interviews and addressed the individual teachers perception of self-assessment, what the teacher considered the benefits of self-assessment to be, and how the teacher used student's self-assessment's in their role as clinical supervisor. The taped interviews were transcribed, and coded and general themes identified. The findings revealed a high degree of consensus amongst the teachers in regard to the co-operative nature of self-assessment, and the teacher's role as a facilitator. The need for students to develop skills of analysis and reflection on their performance as well as the need to furnish students with clear guidelines on what to self-assess, were highlighted |

| Abstract |
The aim of this study was to identify some nursing students' perceptions of how the process of journalling helps them to learn about nursing. The study sample were three students enrolled full time in a Bachelor of Nursing programme and at the end of their first year. Each student volunteer participated in a semi-structured audio-taped interview, guided by the opening question “What is journalling like for you?” The tapes were transcribed, coded and analysed for general themes. Each participant received a copy of her transcript and was invited to alter, add or delete any information. The findings highlighted the difficulties of beginning to journal, learning how to journal, personal growth through journalling, the journal as a critical document of oneself, a love-hate relationship with journalling, and what journalling is like now |
