A new Web-based evaluation model significantly improved medical student assessment, increasing faculty response rates and reducing administrative time. This digital approach offers a faster, more inclusive, and efficient system for evaluating student performance.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Health Professions Education
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Medical school clerkships face time pressures impacting student assessment.
  • Traditional paper-based evaluations have low response rates and inefficient data handling.
  • A need exists for improved methods to assess student knowledge, skills, and attitudes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a Web-based model for assessing third-year medical student performance.
  • To enhance evaluation response rates and incorporate multi-evaluator input.
  • To streamline the medical student evaluation process.

Main Methods:

  • A secure Web-based system was implemented for managing evaluation data.
  • Data included competency-based evaluations, oral exams, and standardized test scores.

  • The model was compared to historical paper-based methods for response rates and time.

    • Main Results:

    • Faculty response rates increased from 71.3% to 89.9%.
    • Evaluation completion time decreased from 28 days to 9 days.
    • Administrative effort reduced from 5 days to 2 hours per rotation, eliminating manual data entry.

    Conclusions:

    • The Web-based 360-degree evaluation model enhances medical student assessment.
    • It improves efficiency, reduces costs, and increases inclusivity by incorporating multiple evaluators.
    • This digital model provides a faster and more comprehensive evaluation system.
