摘要：Improving the reliability and consistency of objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) raters’ marking poses a continual chal_x0002_lenge in medical education.The purpose of this study was to evaluate an e-Learning training module for OSCE raters who participat?ed in the assessment of third-year medical students at the University of Ottawa,Canada.The effects of online training and those of traditional in-person (face-to-face) orientation were compared.Of the 90 physicians recruited as raters for this OSCE,60 consented to participate (67.7%) in the study in March 2017.Of the 60 participants,55 rated students during the OSCE,while the remaining 5 were back-up raters.The number of raters in the online training group was 41,while that in the traditional in-person training group was 19.Of those with prior OSCE experience (n= 18) who participated in the online group,13 (68%) reported that they preferred this format to the in-person orientation.The total average time needed to complete the online module was 15 minutes.Furthermore,89% of the participants felt the module provided clarity in the rater training process.There was no significant difference in the num?ber of missing ratings based on the type of orientation that raters received.Our study indicates that online OSCE rater training is comparable to traditional face-to-face orientation.
