Adult nursing numeracy test:
The following test has been piloted on a group of students studying the "Participating in the practice of adult nursing" module at UWE. It contains a mixture of general numeracy questions together with numeric questions related to adult nursing. Full solutions to the questions and reporting are available so that students can work out where they went wrong and hopefully improve their score on subsequent attempts. Students were invited to submit a questionnaire on their experience at the end of the test and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Please note that the password for the test is stem.
