Psychometric evaluation of the Ethiopian National Medical Licensing Examination
BACKGROUND: Licensing examinations play a crucial role in protecting the public by establishing a minimum level of competency for safe practice. Nevertheless, empirical evidence on the psychometric quality of the National Medical Licensing Examination (NMLE) is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the NMLE in assessing medical graduates in Ethiopia. METHODS: This cross-sectional study assessed the psychometric validity of th…
Between principle and practice
BACKGROUND: In 2019, Ethiopia introduced the National Medical Licensing Examination (NMLE) to standardize medical competence, enhance accountability in education, and ensure patient safety. The effectiveness of such high-stakes exams is significantly influenced by the perceptions of key stakeholders, including medical students, faculty, and school deans. This study investigates their views on the relevance and impact of the NMLE. METHODS: A quali…
Moderately positive educational environment with opportunities for improvement
BACKGROUND: Medical schools play a significant role in shaping students' professional development. The environment in which students learn, both the culture and the resources, directly impacts their education and future practice. This study aimed to assess medical graduates' perceptions of their learning environment, identify areas for improvement, and determine key factors that influence these perceptions. The findings will inform educators, pol…
Strategic insights into initiating Bhutan’s first medical school
WHAT IS THE EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGE?: The Kingdom of Bhutan is a low-middle income, mountainous country that faces severe healthcare workforce shortage. With no medical school, it sent students to other countries for medical training. WHAT ARE THE PROPOSED SOLUTIONS?: A technical working group was tasked with planning a medical school affordable within the government's financial resources, leveraging existing postgraduate specialty training program…
Cinemeducation
This study demonstrates the potential of cinemeducation to address diversity and representation in medical education. We identified gaps, including Eurocentrism and gender imbalances, highlighting the need for a more inclusive approach. Nine practical implications developed to improve inclusivity, including incorporating people with lived experiences, balancing gender representation, integrating global health perspectives, diverse student groups,…

Emergency obstetric and newborn care signal functions
Expanding access to facility-based delivery services and improving the functionality of emergency obstetric and neonatal care (EmONC) are important strategies toward achieving a maternal mortality ratio of 70 deaths per 100,000 live births by 2030. In this study the researchers assess signal functions at designated facilities in Nepal, using Nepal Health Facility Survey data for 2015 and 2021. The functionality of basic and comprehensive EmONC si…
Self-Regulated Learning Strategies as Predictors of Perceived Learning Gains among Undergraduate Students in Ethiopian Universities
Despite increasing focus on the importance of self–regulated learning for undergraduate students in universities in recent years, very little is known about its specific features in universities in developing countries, in general, and Ethiopia, in particular. This study examined the relationships of self-regulated learning strategies (SRLSs) with perceived learning and further assessed the relationships within the SRLS components in Ethiopian pu…
Simulation research and design
Collaborations between researchers and practitioners have recently become increasingly popular in education, and educational design research (EDR) may benefit greatly from investigating such partnerships. One important domain in which EDR on collaborations between researchers and practitioners can be applied is research on simulation-based learning. However, frameworks describing both research and design processes in research programs on simulati…
Establishment of a Pediatric Surgical Unit at a University Hospital in Eastern Africa
The best possible integration of the project into existing structures was achieved by close cooperation of Ethiopian and German colleagues during the project development. Problems were identified and addressed early on by external monitoring. As the project responsibility was mainly with the Ethiopian colleagues, a department was created that now exists independently of external funding and trains its own fellows
Neonatal health in Nepal
Neonatal mortality varies greatly by socio-demographic variables. This study clearly shows that much remains to be achieved in terms of reducing neonatal mortality across different socio-economic, ethnic and geographical population groups in Nepal. In moving forward it will be important to scale up programs of proven effectiveness, conduct in-depth evaluation of promising new approaches, target unreached and hard-to-reach populations, and maximiz…
