Students need to be proficient in the 4C skills of the twenty-first century (critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration and communication). However, field conditions are out of step with 21st-century advancements. It is well known that high school biology teachers in Kerinci Regency have never particularly established programs to help students understand the 4C skills. The objective of this study is to develop instruments for measuring 4C abilities in biology learning to help biology teachers apply 4C skills-oriented learning in the class. The instruments developed are: 1) an instrument for evaluating critical thinking abilities in the form of essay questions with a grading rubric. 2) An instrument to evaluate creative thinking skills in the form of questionnaires and essay questions with grading rubrics. 3) An instrument for evaluating collaboration skills in the form of questionnaires and observation sheets. 4) An instrument for evaluating communication skills in the form of questionnaires and observation sheets. Assessment instrument experts, biology education practitioners and high school students from Kerinci Regency, Indonesia were included in the study. Empirical and content validations are used to validate instruments. Instrument reliability also covers the consistency of the validators in filling out the validation form as well as the empirical reliability of the instrument. The research findings indicate that the 4C skills assessment instrument is both valid and reliable. The 4C skills assessment instrument can be used to examine students' 4C skills in biology subject.

Background In medical students’ workplace learning, feedback is important for effective learning regarding communication and clinical skills. The provision of multisource feedback (MSF) in clinical practice with focus on the patient’s perspective is rarely addressed in the literature. The overall objective was to explore the experience of MSF in medical students’ clinical learning in primary healthcare (PHC). Methods In the study, patients provided feedback by use of the Patient Feedback in Clinical Practice (PFCP) questionnaire. By use of adapted PFCP questionnaire versions peers and clinical supervisors provided feedback and students performed a self-evaluation. The MSF learning activity was evaluated using surveys (4-point Likert scale/open-ended questions), (students (n = 26), peers (n = 9) and clinical supervisors (n = 7)). Data were analysed using descriptive and qualitative content analysis. Results Results (mean 4-point Likert scale) from participants evaluation of the MSF learning activity visualises the value of feedback in terms of patient-centred communication (students 3.50, peers 2.44 and clinical supervisors 3.57), guidance for further training (students 3.14, peers 2.89 and clinical supervisors 3.00) and clarification of pedagogical assignment (students 3.14, peers 2.89 and clinical supervisors 3.00). Thematic analysis of participants’ free-text answers in the evaluation surveys resulted in three themes: (1) applicability of the MSF, (2) MSF – collaborative learning process and (3) MSF as a facilitator in students’ clinical skills development. The participants experienced that the written MSF provided multi-facetted perspectives, which contributed to students’ and peers’ clinical and communication learning. MSF experience also enhanced clinical supervisors’ feedback regarding communication skills, targeting the supervisors’ pedagogical assignment. Conclusion Our findings indicate that MSF provided directly after a patient encounter, using the PFCP questionnaire as feedback provider, could be an adequate learning activity for medical students’ workplace learning. The MSF, provided through the PFCP questionnaire, was experienced to neutralise and operationalise the provision of concrete feedback, facilitating peers’ learning and clinical supervisors’ tuition. The results visualise the importance of patients in MSF, as a valuable resource in students’ workplace learning. Our study implies that this learning activity could be an applicable tool to facilitate learning and pedagogic development in clinical education in PHC.
