“…Electronic checklists (eCHKL) are an alternative form for faster and objective student assessment. With the advent of widespread use of available digital resources, the term "digitalization" emerged as the need to transform processes using digital resources [Hochlernet, 2015]. In connection with the development of digitalization strategy, improvement and automation of assessment processes, interest in digital resources arose in the center of practical skills, and an electronic evaluation form was introduced on tablets to streamline the OSCE evaluation process.…”

“…During the pandemic, using digital resources in student assessment accelerated faster but examiners have had some difficulties in using digital technologies. Electronic resources can offer a reasonable solution for assessing students [6,7]. The experience of using paper and electronic assessment checklists and examiners' self-perception had not been studied in our university, and therefore, this was the goal of our research.…”

Nowadays, Medical education in the Covid-19 pandemic poses a new challenge to explore approaches for delivering quality distance education, especially in the clinical competence assessments. Assessments of clinical competence approaches to conducting an exam, implementation of a new innovative strategy to the assessment procedure, minimize costs, and efficiency in using existing digital resources, have been revised.The study aimed to compare paper and electronic checklists used in Objective Structured Clinical Exams and assessors' self-perception of electronic checklists and technologies.Material and methods: The authors compared three types of checklists (paper, bubble, and electronic checklists) according to the following criteria: ease of use, registration, and authentication of examinees and examiners, processing of exam results, and cost benefits.Results: In the course of analysis, three versions of checklists were compared, thus identifying the advantages and disadvantages of each one, including the assessors' attitude to new technologies.Despite the high cost of the tablets compared to paper checklists, the use of tablets at OSCE had many advantages, and assessors mentioned that number of errors significantly dropped.Conclusion: Thus, digitalization of the assessment procedure helped streamline the exam process, securing evaluation data, and speeding up information processing, which significantly minimized the cost of human resources.

“…OSCE has been in place for several decades, however, it attracted a significant amount of criticism, due to lack of reliability in measuring candidates’ clinical competence and the effect of no implemented standardization of cases and examiners. Later developments to improve the quality of OSCE in terms of validity and reliability scores were the design of scenario and assessment tool design checklists, more frequently used as interactive digital files [ 4 ]. The basic procedure for developing OSCE checklists includes three main stages for developing assessment tools to measure clinical skills [ 5 ].…”

The current Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is complex, costly, and difficult to provide high-quality assessments. This pilot study employed a focus group and debugging stage to test the Crowdsource Authoring Assessment Tool (CAAT) for the creation and sharing of assessment tools used in editing and customizing, to match specific users’ needs, and to provide higher-quality checklists. Competency assessment international experts (n = 50) were asked to 1) participate in and experience the CAAT system when editing their own checklist, 2) edit a urinary catheterization checklist using CAAT, and 3) complete a Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) questionnaire consisting of 14 items to evaluate its four domains. The study occurred between October 2018 and May 2019. The median time for developing a new checklist using the CAAT was 65.76 minutes whereas the traditional method required 167.90 minutes. The CAAT system enabled quicker checklist creation and editing regardless of the experience and native language of participants. Participants also expressed the CAAT enhanced checklist development with 96% of them willing to recommend this tool to others. The use of a crowdsource authoring tool as revealed by this study has efficiently reduced the time to almost a third it would take when using the traditional method. In addition, it allows collaborations to partake on a simple platform which also promotes contributions in checklist creation, editing, and rating.

“…Simultaneously, while education, not technology, is the prime goal (and for healthcare, better patient outcomes. Además del conocimiento declarativo, la aplicación práctica representa un aumento adicional en la adquisición de habilidades (habilidades prácticas) que se ha evaluado como parte de los estudios médicos durante muchos años utilizando el ECOE (Hochlehnert et al, 2015;Thamburaj et al, 2015). En la actualidad, a pesar que la digitalización está ganando importancia e incorporándose en los planes de estudio de las escuelas de medicina, sin embargo aún no es un componente integral y amplio del marco de enseñanza de los estudios médicos en el Perú, sino que se utiliza en el sentido de un enriquecimiento puntual de la enseñanza.…”
