Workshop/Arbeitstreffen

At the Medical University of Vienna, basic medical skills in year 2 are taught in three lines (basic clinical skills, history taking skills, physical examination skills), and are practiced and assessed in a fourth line in a practical examination. The hands-on workshop is designed for participants who want to learn more about important aspects that help align teaching and assessment of basic medical skills. For example, considering the frame of reference, which equals the level of education, is essential, as it informs the topics and contents of teaching and sets the standard for assessment. But how to set the frame of reference and link teaching and assessment? Participants will meet this challenge by

1.
developing a short checklist or global rating scale,
2.
experiencing and participating in a standard setting procedure, and
3.
putting themselves in the raters’ shoes and rating students’ basic medical skills.

Finally, tips for a standardized rater training, incorporating the experienced topics, are presented and discussed.
