- Abstract
When writing at degree level, nurses need to demonstrate an understanding of evidence by summarising its key elements and comparing the contrasting authors' views. Critical analysis is an important nursing skill in writing and in practice. With the advent of an all-degree profession, understanding how to develop this skill is crucial. This article examines how students can develop critical analysis skills to write at undergraduate degree level. It highlights some of the common errors when writing at this academic level and provides advice on how to avoid such mistakes.
