Washing Procedures. The Questionnaire Will Be Comprised

¶ … washing procedures. The questionnaire will be comprised of questions that include the steps presented in the hand washing procedure.

Included in these questions will be the following questions: (1) Were all rings and watches removed? (2) Was water flow adjusted and hands wet completely? (3) Was one teaspoon of liquid handsoap dispensed into palm of hand and brought to a lather? (4) Were hands scrubbed by using a brush and were fingers washed between? (5) Were fingernails cleaned under? (6) Were palms and wrists scrubbed/ (7) What was the total time for scrubbing hands? (8) Were hands rinsed in lukewarm water for 10 seconds? (9) Were hands dried with paper towels from hands to wrists? (10) Was paper towel used to turn off water? The questionnaire will measure the effectiveness of the instruction provided on hand washing through assessing the participants understanding of the proper hand washing procedures.

Entrepreneurship Ehmke and Boehlje (2005) report that there is evidence to indicate that benefits are realized by firms in business planning and specifically as new ventures are assessed as they begin. However, there are only a small number of firms who use business planning. (paraphrased) Beginning a new adventure is deeply ingrained into the process of the entrepreneur and the requirements for the entrepreneur include the identification, evaluation, and development of a potential opportunity. The entrepreneur must therefore identify and then evaluate any new opportunity and develop a business plan.

This involves the identification of resources that are required followed by management of the enterprise at focus. II. Assessment Methods Formal and informal methods of assessment are required in ensuring that procedures are properly understood after the provision of instruction.

While formal assessments are standardized and result in scores being assigned or compared and may be in the form of summative type testing and possibly extend beyond the classroom environment, informal assessments are non-standardized and do not result in scoring or comparisons and may involve observation and interviews taking place in the normal classroom environment. Informal testing is reported most useful when attempting to gain knowledge in regards to the cognitive, manipulative, and affective abilities of the student.

"The results of formal examinations when not enough to provide a concluding mark for the performance of a student often results in the conduction of informal assessments. III.

Technical Knowledge and Skills The ACPA ASK Project in its Assessment Skills and Knowledge Content Standards for Students Affairs Practitioners and Scholars states that "the articulation and assessment of student learning has been especially challenging given the complex psychosocial and cognitive constructs that are the hallmarks of our work with students." (p.1) Stated as mess constructs are such as "s leadership, citizenship, appreciation for diversity, critical and ethical judgment, and a host of interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligences present unique measurement issues." (ACPA ASK Project, 2006, p.1) Publications are reported as being assistive in nature however, lacking is an agreement and clear articulation of the specific content areas and necessary proficiencies to ensure that students are assessing required learning outcomes.

Reported as Assessment Skills and Knowledge content areas are those stated as follows: • Assessment Design • Articulating Learning and Development Outcomes • Selection of Data Collection and Management Methods • Assessment Instruments • Surveys Used for Assessment Purposes • Interviews and Focus Groups used for Assessment Purposes • Assessment Methods: Analysis • Benchmarking • Program Review and Evaluation • Assessment Ethics • Effective Reporting and Use of Results • Politics of Assessment • Assessment Education (, p.1) Each of these specifications should be factored into the assessment design and requirements.
