Students’ perceptions of the assessment programme’s impact on self-regulated learning
It is assumed that a programmatic approach to assessment supports students’ self-regulated learning (SRL). This study investigated students’ perceptions of this assumed support. Using a multiple-case study design, this study examined students’ perceptions in two distinct study programmes. In each case, first-year students were enrolled in an assessment programme that was designed in accordance with the principles of programmatic assessment, which…
Between theory and practice
Introduction The shift toward an assessment for learning culture includes assessment quality criteria that emphasise the learning process, such as transparency and learning impact, in addition to the traditional validity and reliability criteria. In practice, the quality of the assessment depends on how the criteria are interpreted and applied. We explored how educators perceive and achieve assessment quality, as well as how they perceive assessm…
A scoping review on the notions of Assessment as Learning (AaL), Assessment for Learning (AfL), and Assessment of Learning (AoL)
Associations between assessment and learning are widely studied and often organized around the notions of Assessment as Learning (AaL), Assessment for Learning (AfL), and Assessment of Learning (AoL). Although these notions are appealing in theory, the notions are unclear constructs to comprehend, as both their definitions and their practice are used inconsistently in educational research. We present a synthesis of common characteristics among th…
Closing the patient experience chasm
BACKGROUND: Evaluation of patients' health care experiences is central to measuring patient-centred care. However, different instruments tend to be used at the hospital or departmental level but rarely both, leading to a lack of standardization of patient experience measures. OBJECTIVE: To validate the Consumer Quality Index (CQI) Inpatient Hospital Care for use on both department and hospital levels. DESIGN: Using cross-sectional observational d…
Medical Education
Effects of pairs of problems and examples on task performance and different types of cognitive load
Quiet or questioning? Students' discussion behaviors in student-centered education across cultures
A tool used in student-centered education is discussion among students in small learning groups. The Western origin of student-centered education, coupled with cross-cultural differences in communication styles, may detract from its cross-cultural applicability. This study investigates how in student-centered education, students' cultural backgrounds are expressed in discussions and shape students' discussion behaviors and skills. A comparative c…
Development of an instrument for measuring different types of cognitive load
Self-assessment and students’ study strategies in a community of clinical practice
This research suggests that the theoretical advantages linked to the self-assessment process are a result of its feedback component rather than the practice of self-assessment isolated from feedback. Further research exploring the effects of different contextual and personal factors on students' self-assessment is needed
Programmatic assessment
In assessment a considerable shift in thinking has occurred from assessment of learning to assessment for learning. This has important implications for the conceptual framework from which to approach the issue of assessment, but also with respect to the research agenda. The main conceptual changes pertain to programmes of assessment. This has led to a broadened perspective on the types of construct assessment tries to capture, the way information…
Determining the Quality of Competence Assessment Programs
The wheel of competency assessment
A Description of a Validated Effective Teacher-Training Workshop for Medical Residents
This workshop was developed based on careful analysis of medical residents' perceived educational needs and systematically implemented and evaluated. The results show that it is a suitable and effective educational intervention
Teachers’ opinions on quality criteria for Competency Assessment Programs
Assessing professional competence
Introduction We use a utility model to illustrate that, firstly, selecting an assessment method involves context‐dependent compromises, and secondly, that assessment is not a measurement problem but an instructional design problem, comprising educational, implementation and resource aspects. In the model, assessment characteristics are differently weighted depending on the purpose and context of the assessment. Empirical and theoretical developme…
Problem‐based learning
Context Problem‐based learning (PBL) is widely used in higher education. There is evidence available that students and faculty are highly satisfied with PBL. Nevertheless, in educational practice problems are often encountered, such as tutors who are too directive, problems that are too well‐structured, and dysfunctional tutorial groups. Purpose The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that PBL has the potential to prepare students more effectivel…
Quality issues in judging portfolios
This article addresses the choice of the most appropriate procedure for the assessment of portfolios used in teacher and lecturer assessment. A characteristic of modern assessment modes, including portfolios, is that the information they provide is often qualitative and derived from different contexts. Unambiguous, objective rating of portfolios is difficult to achieve, because the richness and uniqueness of the contents of the portfolio necessit…
