Convincing the students formative paediatric assessment vs MCQ/SAQ/EMI N - 28
Feedback • Overall I liked this method of assessment; however I think it is a disadvantage not to be able to go back and change your mind. • I hope more exams will be carried out like this in the future. • The exact answers I wanted were frequently not available so I found myself guessing quite a bit! But I suppose the same would be true in a MCQ exam.
The more practical experience I have, the better I will perform! • Disadvantaged - only in that if I was to use this software for the first time in a exam without opportunity to get used to it first unforced errors might be made. • i wish i knew what i was doing
