For educators
Help students learn from accurate questions.
NurseLumen is a free NCLEX-RN study site for Canadian and US nursing students. Every question stays marked as a draft until a nurse educator has checked it. That is where you come in.
What reviewing involves
- A private review area. You sign in with a username and password we set up for you. There is no public profile and nothing to install.
- Every answer and rationale shown open. You see each practice question or case study as written, with its correct answer, the reasoning for every option and its sources.
- Three choices per item. Approve it if it is accurate, current and fair as written. Suggest changes to fix it yourself; your version waits for the site owner's OK before it goes live. Or turn it down and say why.
- Your own pace. Review a handful or a long run, whenever you have time. You stay signed in on your device for up to 30 days.
- Your name stays private. Students see "Reviewed by a nurse educator" and the month, never who. Only the site owner sees who reviewed what.
Please include your name and nursing credentials. Already have a sign-in? Go to the review area.
How the content is made
Questions, rationales, case studies and lessons are written from cited sources, checked against current guidelines and audited before they are published. Each one shows its sources and licence, and says plainly whether a nurse educator has reviewed it. Questions follow the 2026 NCLEX-RN test plan, and the Canadian and US versions swap drug names, units and practice notes where the countries differ.
Sharing it with a class
- No sign-up for students. Share the link to the study app; students can start right away. Their progress stays on their own device.
- Pick the country. app.html?region=ca opens the Canadian version and app.html?region=us the US version.
- Practice by course area. Students can filter by test plan area or by specialty, such as Pediatrics, Mental health or Indigenous health, so it fits alongside a course.
- Practice scores are feedback, not predictions. NurseLumen never estimates a student's chance of passing.
