Higher education evolves towards Problem Based Learning. The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) assesses students' competencies in three of the four levels of Miller's pyramid; Knows, Knows How, and Shows How (knowledge, competence, and performance). In the last two years, a total of 79 students at Cardenal Herrera University CEU were assessed with this examination, with good results. Student are asked to go through 5 stations, in which they have 5 minutes to resolve a practical problem. A trained teacher acts as the patient, while another evaluates the student's abilities. Next, an anonymous satisfaction survey is given to the students, with the result 4,12/6. The problems presented to the students must be changed constantly so that each time they increasingly adapt to the situations they will find in their real-life practice once the graduate as professional pharmacists.

Objective: To understand the on-line knowledge examination, the Interdisciplinary Evaluation and Feedback Seminar (SERI in Spanish) and the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) as innovative evaluation strategies, based on the perceptions of faculty and students of an medical programme basic area. Materials and methods: Qualitative, microethnographic research. Five focus groups and seven in-depth interviews were conducted with faculty members and students who gave their informed consent and their permission for recording. The data were analysed using open axial coding and emerging categories. Triangulation of sources, authors and techniques was used, and a final report was prepared before returning the information. Results: The strategies studied have strengths and weaknesses; on-line examination is well accepted by the students but there is a lack coordination. Greater faculty training in the use of the platform is required, and it is important to establish mechanisms to avoid potential fraud. SERI favours feedback but there is a need to reduce the risk of affecting self-esteem and to find ways to improve knowledge assessment. OSCE comes closer to the correlation between basic training and clinical practice, but organisation and physical space for stations need to be improved. Conclusions: Innovative evaluation strategies must be the focus of constant review in terms of their structure and implementation in order to strengthen comprehensive student training.

Objective: To assess reliability and validity of the objectively-structured clinical examination (OSCE) applied in postgraduate certification processes by the Mexican Board of Rheumatology. Method: Thirty-two (2013) and 38 (2014) Rheumatology trainees (RTs) underwent an OSCE consisting of 12 and 15 stations respectively, scored according to a validated check-list, as well as 300-multiplechoice 300 question examination (MCQ). Previously, 3 certified rheumatologists underwent a pilot-OSCE. A composite OSCE score was obtained for each participant and its performance examined. Results: In 2013, OSCE mean score was 7.1 ± 0.6 with none RT receiving a failing score while the MCQ score was 6.5 ± 0.6 and 7 (21.9%) RTs receiving a failing (< 6) score. In 2014, the OSCE score was 6.7 ± 0.6, with 3 (7.9%) RTs receiving a failing score (2 of them also failed MCQ) while the MCQ score was 6.4 ± 0.5 and 7 (18.5%) RTs were disqualified (2 of them also failed OSCE). A significant correlation between the MCQ and the OSCE scores was observed in the 2013 (r=0.44; P=0.006). Certified rheumatologists performed better than RTs at both OSCE. Overall, 86% of RTs obtaining an OSCE passing score also obtained a MCQ passing score, while this was only 67% (P=.02) among those who obtained an OSCE failing score. Nine stations were applied at both consecutive years. Their performance was similar in both certification processes, with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.81 to 0.95 (P≤0.01). Conclusion: The OSCE is a valid and reliable tool to assess the Rheumatology clinical skills in RTs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Since the "Flexneriane" revolution 100 years ago, many attempts have been made to change how medicine is taught, and many new general tendencies in education have appeared. Principally the necessity to surpass the classic biomedical model with one more focussed on the individual and society has become evident. The curriculum tends to be more comprehensive with the inclusion of community needs, integration different clinical dimensions and interpersonal skills. The selection and admission of students into medical schools seeks to be more inclusive, equalising and based on the science of evaluation. Models of virtual universities have been emerging which will surely be successful in the future. They are based on the constant development of simulators, new information technology and the use of social media networks. There are many examples of mixed models of distance learning and blended elearning . The concept of multi-professional and inter-professional practice and training including undergraduate and postgraduate training in some schools according to selected orientation has been incorporated. Evaluation of knowledge and professional skills tends to be more descriptive, with an emphasis on reflection and on metacognitive skills as well as the use of sophisticated tests such as OSCE, miniCEX, and Script Concordance tests. Educational training has become longitudinal, reflexive, interactive and encourages personal and professional commitment as an element for learning. Many aspects of medical education are definitely changing and these new tendencies are a medium through which one can adapt to the new social realities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
