Sao Paulo Med J 2004; 122(1):3. Assessment of medical students’ knowledge is a very difficult issue. Many types of student evaluation are possible, including written longitudinal tests (the so-called “progress tests” or “evolution tests”), module-related written tests and the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). The OSCE was introduced into some medical schools in the 1970s and a l...

INTRODUCTION In medical practice, some patients consult doctors for reassurance of normality, e.g. patients with throat discomfort. Therefore, medical graduates should be competent in diagnosing clinical normality. One way to assess clinical competence is by the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE). METHODS In 2002-2006, five batches of medical students who completed their otorhin...

Current teaching approaches in human and veterinary medicine across North America, Europe, and Australia include lectures, group discussions, feedback, role-play, and web-based training. Increasing class sizes, changing learning preferences, and economic and logistical challenges are influencing the design and delivery of communication skills in veterinary undergraduate education. The study's o...

BACKGROUND Objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) are a commonly used method of assessing clinical competency in health care education. They can provide an opportunity to observe candidates interacting with patients. There are many challenges in using real patients in OSCEs, and increasingly standardised patients are being used as a preference. However, by using standardised patient...

BACKGROUND The objective structure clinical examination (OSCE) has been used since the early 1970s for assessing clinical competence. There are very few studies that have examined the psychometric stability of the stations that are used repeatedly with different samples. The purpose of the present study was to assess the stability of objective structured clinical exams (OSCEs) employing the sam...

BACKGROUND Narrative Reflective Practice (NRP) is a process that helps medical students become better listeners and physicians. We hypothesized that NRP would enhance students' performance on multiple-choice question exams (MCQs), on objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs), and on subjective clinical evaluations (SCEs). METHODS The MCQs, OSCEs and SCEs test scores from 139 third ye...
