Descriptive analysis was performed using 2 metrics evaluation of OSCE quality. The metric number of failure was calculated based on the percentage of candidate who did not pass on every OSCE station. The calculation among groups variation was done by calculating the co-efficiency of total variation on specific group.
Results: The highest failure rate occurred at the OSCE’s station that measured physical examination skills (20 - 36%). The lowest was appeared at the station which measured communication and patient education (9.66%). Dental Radiology was a learning content that has the highest failure rate (20,37%) during the period had been analyzed. Furthermore, there was 1 – 4 stations on each period of OSCE National Competency exam in 2012 – 2013 that has co-efficiency of variation >30 %.
Conclusion:
The failure rates can demonstrate the learning content that require an evaluation. The evaluation of between-group variation could be an early indication of unequal candidate’s ability. The evaluation of OSCE result on National Board Dental Exam can be an indicator to review dental curriculum in Indonesia. | en_US |
