This article reports on the use of a student engagement framework to evaluate an online role-play offered as part of a course in Bachelor of Nursing and Bachelor of Midwifery programs. Instruments that measure student engagement to date have targeted large numbers of students at program and institutional levels, rather than at the level of a specific learning activity. Although the framework produced some useful findings for evaluation purposes, further refinement of the questions is required to be certain that deep learning results from the engagement that occurs with course-level learning initiatives.

Discussion The participants agreed that the novel symptom management NPI should be individually personalised to the needs of each patient
and be available for patients when they become receptive to it. Moreover, they agreed that the intervention would be most
effective if delivered to patients individually rather than in groups, outside acute medical settings where possible and closer
to patient’s homes, should be delivered by an HCP rather than a trained volunteer or lay person and should involve informal
carers wherever practicable.

Conclusions The majority of cancer survivors do not appear to require additional support services. There is, however, a subgroup of survivors

Future research should focus on developing methods that could be used in routine clinical practice to identify ‘at risk’ or
