Abstract Introduction: Problems related to the clinical abilities of physiotherapy students are not always identified throughout the educational process and might only be observed when these future professionals have to treat patients. The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) includes a problematization approach and can be used in Health Sciences teaching to help this identification before internship practices. However, there are few studies on its use in Physiotherapy. Objective: To gather evidence of the OSCE use to evaluate clinical abilities in Physiotherapy teaching. Method: Articles published from 2000 to 2016 were surveyed in the Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) (Virtual Health Library), Centro Latino-Americano e do Caribe de Informação em Ciências da Saúde (BIREME) (Latin-American and Caribbean Health Sciences Information Center), PubMed, Scielo and Web of Science, using the descriptors “educational assessment”, “assessment methods”, “objective structured clinical examination”, “clinical competence”, “professional competence”, “clinical skills”, “student competence”, “student skills”, “physiotherapy” and the Booleans “OR” and “AND”. Results: The initial number of identified publications was 3,242. From these, seven were included in this review. Two studies were developed in Brazil, four in Australia and one in Canada. The studies were scored 7 to 12 regarding methodologic quality, and 1B and 2B regarding scientific evidence. Conclusion: Students’ clinical abilities were grouped into three classes: cognitive, psychomotor and affective, and four studies described their use. There is very little evidence of the use of OSCE, but the instrument can be applied to evaluate skills and competences in Physiotherapy teaching.

English Academic Writing

This study examines the difficulties faced by Arab students in the tertiary level in creating a well-written paragraph in English academic writing. The participants were approximately 40 students from RAK Medical and Health Sciences University located in Ras Al Khaimah in The United Arab Emirates. The study’s significance is to propose potential methods and solutions for academic English instructors to improve the students’ performance by designing a writing course based on the pre-and post-tests that were used to monitor students’ progress in writing before and after the course of Academic writing. Pre-tests were conducted to analyze the needs of the students. The analyses revealed that the participants had trouble using the writing fundamentals like grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure. After implementing the course topics, the results of the post-tests showed changes in the students’ academic writing performance. The study concludes that to obtain the best results from the courses of English Academic writing, the course should be based on the difficulties faced by the students. It also shows that before applying any academic writing course, the instructor has to carry out an error or needs analyses to identify the weak points of the group, then the course can be designed accordingly.

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the satisfaction of pharmacy students with e-learning during the COVID-19 lockdown. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Pharmacy School of Mohammed VI University of Health Sciences of Casablanca in April 2020. An anonymous questionnaire previously validated by the pedagogical committee of the university was administered to students via google forms. Results: A total of 154 responses were received, 122 (79.22%) were female students. The majority of students were satisfied with the general organisation (between 60.4% and 81.8% depending on the studied parameter), e-learning (63.6%), educational content (between 61% and 85.7% depending on the studied parameter), self-assessment methods (between 64.9% and 84.4% depending on the studied parameter), adaptation (63%), the involvement of teachers (83.8%), and the administration of the faculty (75.9%). Multivariate analysis showed that two factors were significantly associated with student satisfaction related to e-learning in this study. This corresponds to the level of study (p-value = 0.026; OR=4.009; IC95% [1.176-13.663]) and the adaptation (p-value = 0.004; OR=3.671; IC95% [1.519-8.868]). This study found that satisfaction levels were higher among third year students, which could be interpreted by the fact that they were more familiar with e-learning. Conclusion: Students were mostly satisfied with e-learning during the lockdown. The experience from this study showed an advantage for other schools by the partial introduction of e-learning training as a teaching method in normal situations in order to better deal with emergency situations.

Background: Librarians often teach evidence-based practice (EBP) within health sciences curricula. It is not known what teaching methods are most effective.Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted searching CINAHL, EMBASE, ERIC, LISTA, PubMed, Scopus, and others. Searches were completed through December 2014. No limits were applied. Hand searching of Medical Library Association annual meeting abstracts from 2009–2014 was also completed. Studies must be about EBP instruction by a librarian within undergraduate or graduate health sciences curricula and include skills assessment. Studies with no assessment, letters and comments, and veterinary education studies were excluded. Data extraction and critical appraisal were performed to determine the risk of bias of each study.Results: Twenty-seven studies were included for analysis. Studies occurred in the United States (20), Canada (3), the United Kingdom (1), and Italy (1), with 22 in medicine and 5 in allied health. Teaching methods included lecture (20), small group or one-on-one instruction (16), computer lab practice (15), and online learning (6). Assessments were quizzes or tests, pretests and posttests, peer review, search strategy evaluations, clinical scenario assignments, or a hybrid. Due to large variability across studies, meta-analysis was not conducted.Discussion: Findings were weakly significant for positive change in search performance for most studies. Only one study compared teaching methods, and no one teaching method proved more effective. Future studies could conduct multisite interventions using randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trial study design and standardized assessment tools to measure outcomes.

Abstract Background: To determine the effect of the three teaching methods on the learning of contact lenses and provide recommendations to improve Contact Lenses teaching in optometric education.Methods: The survey was conducted at Tianjin Medical University with the students' evaluations of educational quality (SEEQ) questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale over 2 weeks in June 2021. It is for optometry students whose contact lenses were taught by any of three methods: 92 students enrolled in 2017 at Dagang campus performed online learning, 60 students enrolled in 2017 at Qixiangtai campus performed offline learning, and 100 students enrolled in 2018 at Dagang campus performed blended learning: both online and offline; A total of 252 students were invited to participate in this study. Descriptive statistics were performed to analyze SEEQ items. ANOVA was used to determine significant differences among different teaching methods.Results: 221 valid questionnaires were collected, with a response rate of 87.70% (221/252). Among them, 87(39.37%) were male, and 134(60.63%) were female. Offline teaching students had longer contact time with the faculty than online teaching and blended teaching (p<0.05). No statistically significant differences in sex or academic performance were found among 3 different teaching methods (p=0.33, p=0.91, respectively). There were 18.10% (40/221) of students who suggested increasing experiment and practice time.Conclusion: The traditional offline teaching method had a stable teaching effect. Students had more contact time with faculty than students taught by online and blended teaching. Online teaching and blended teaching worked as well as offline learning. The effectiveness was not be influenced by gender and academic performance.
