GRADING AND SYLLABI
VERBIAGE FROM SYLLABI
➢ The online interactive virtual simulations are designed to help you develop clinical decision-making
skills, competence, and confidence in a realistic environment to meet the clinical objectives for the
course. vSim is a requirement for this course. The virtual simulation will take place as outlined in the
clinical schedule.
➢ Instructors will designate specific VSim to assist in meeting the clinical objectives. The clinical schedule
will list the name of the simulation and due date (end of your clinical day).
➢ Virtual clinical (vSim assignments) are pass/fail. The total points for clinical replacement is outlined
below. A score of 80% is required prior to the due date to receive a “pass” for that clinical day. See the
Moodle homepage for link to “vSim Clinical Replacement Package” for grading rubrics and directions
for assignments. All completed assignments must be turned into the designated Moodle drop-box by
the end of the clinical day.
➢ Clinical assignments will be graded using the rubrics below.
➢ You may take the VSim as many times as you want to get a passing score. The student can earn a
portion of the total points available based on the work that has been completed. Work submitted
after the due date will receive no credit and will be recorded as a failing grade for the clinical day.
➢ It is expected that every student watches the “vSim Tutorial” (must use Explorer or Firefox to view)
to learn to navigate the program.
