Feedback after OSCE: A comparison of face to face versus an enhanced written feedback.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE) is a useful means of generating meaningful feedback. OSCE feedback may be in various forms (written, face to face and audio or video recordings). Studies on OSCE feedback are uncommon, especially involving Asian medical students.

Methods

Both methods were evaluated by students and staff examiners, and students' responses were compared against their OSCE performance.
