The aim of this study is to assess the perception of students and lecturers toward the
utility of OSCE as a method of assessment in PPSK, USM degree nursing programme.
This study was a non-experimental study involving 1 09 students and 11 lecturers from
PPSK, USM degree nursing programme in the year 2007. These two groups (students
and lecturers) were selected purposively from PPSK, USM degree nursing programme.
Students and lecturers who did not meet pre-determined criteria were excluded. The
selected groups were interviewed using structured questionnaires.
The results indicate that although the OSCE was perceived as an educational benefit by
57 students (52.3%) and as fair by 66 students (60.6%) and as an educational benefit by
7 lecturers (63.6%), the students also acknowledged it as stressful (58 students (53.2%))
and by the lecturers as unfeasible (6 ,54.5%) as a form of assessment.
The one-way ANOVA analysis result of the association ofthe total students' perception
score of the educational benefits and stress of OSCE to the students' year of study
showed that there was no significant association between students' year of study and the
educational benefits perception score or the stress perception score from OSCE.
However, the result also revealed there is significant association between students' year
of study and the fairness perception scores. The result showed that fourth year students
had lower perception scores. The result of non-parametric test (Kruskal-Wallis) of the total lecturers' perception
score of the educational benefits and feasibility of OSCE for differences among ·
lecturers according to year of OSCE experience showed that there were no significant
differences by lecturers' years ofOSCE experience.
Any form of assessment has its problems or concerns. Although there are some
limitations to the OSCE approach it still has its advantages and must therefore be
viewed in the context of the strengths and limitations compared to other forms of
assessment. This study has identified many areas for further exploration. A larger
longitudinal study is needed to establish the effectiveness of OSCE within nurse
education programmes. |
