Evaluasi Penugasan Clinical Reasoning dan Refleksi Mahasiswa di SKills Lab FK UGM

Background: Teaching clinical reasoning and reflection skills in skills laboratory are usually neglected, therefore Skills Lab of FM UGM initiate to teach those skills for undergraduate students. This study aimed to evaluate student’s assignment of clinical reasoning and reflection skills and explore how to improve it.Method: An experimental study by giving student assignments to make an essay about particular disease based on SKDI level 4 that written on a medical record and reflection form format. All 4th-year medical students of FM GMU (n=186) and skills lab instructors (n=5) were involved. Assignments were assessed (by the instructors) using instrument by Driessen (2008), and analyzed by correlating those scores with students’ OSCE score and GPA using Pearson Correlation test. Qualitative data collected by deep interview with assessors and analyzed using Inductive Content Analysis by 2 coders.Results: There were no significant correlation between assignment score with OSCE score and GPA. However, there were significant correlations (p<0.05) between score of clinical reasoning with reflection skills, and OSCE score with GPA. Assessors conclude that assignment has been good enough to stimulate clinical reasoning and reflection skills, but still had weaknesses e.g. incompatibility of assignment’s format to assessment’s checklist, unclear instructions, and no assignment’s sample that made students submitted in various format.Conclusion: The assignment has been successfully conducted in Skills Lab FM UGM, however it needs some improvement, such as giving detail instructions, examples, and matching it with assessment instrument.

Advent of technology has caused growing interest in using computers to convert conventional paper and pencil-based testing (Henceforth PPT) into Computer-based testing (Henceforth CBT) in the field of education during last decades. This constant promulgation of computers to reshape the conventional tests into computerized format permeated the language assessment field in recent years. But, enjoying advantages of computers in language assessment raise the concerns of the effects that computerized mode of testing may have on CBT performance. Thus, this study investigated the score comparability of Vocabulary in Use test taken by 30 Iranian undergraduate students studying at a state university located in Chabahar region of Iran (CMU) to see whether scores from two administrations of testing mode were different. Therefore, two similar tests were administered to the male and female participants on two testing mode occasions with four weeks interval. Employing One-Way ANOVA statistical test to compare the mean scores and Pearson Correlation test to find the relationship between mode preference and performance revealed that two sets of scores were not different and gender difference was not also considered a variable that might affect performance on CBT. Based on the results, computerized version of the test can be considered a favorable alternative for the state undergraduate students in Iran.

Introduction: Postprandial somnolence or commonly referred to as food coma is generally experienced after the ingestion of afternoon meals. The performance of an individual gets affected after the ingestion of a heavy meal and this is more pertinent in a college setup where students have to attend a lecture right after the meal. The objective of this study was to assess the awareness of medical students about the factors responsible for postprandial somnolence, to identify the methods used to counteract it and to ascertain lecturers’ perception on responsiveness and participation of the students in a post lunch lecture. Methods: Total 330 students (first year to third year MBBS students) aged between 18-21 years and 40 lecturers teaching first and second year MBBS students were involved in this study. Two separate questionnaires (Part A: students’ perception, and B: lecturers’ perception) were prepared, peer-reviewed, validated and administered to the respective participants. All the responses were compiled and expressed in frequency percentage. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences, version 15.0 for a level of statistical significance of 5%. Pearson correlation was used to get the association between the variables. Results: About 55.75% students were aware about the role of serotonin and melatonin in drowsiness but 45.75% students did not know that food rich in tryptophan relaxes the brain and results in sleepiness. Students agree that heaviness of their meal might cause drowsiness and indigestion or bloating, which can also result in lethargy and can affect their performance. Majority of the lecturers opined that students disturb the harmony of the class and are less responsive and participative in post lunch break lectures. Conclusion: Thus, the present study provided scope for conducting awareness talks regarding the strategies to counteract postprandial somnolence among medical students which can help improve their concentration during post-lunch lectures.
