Objective:
To compare student-perceived utility of two types of score reports.
Methods:
Assessment standards were followed to create a new examination score report for pharmacotherapy coursework. Student examination scores were returned using the traditional score report, the utility of which students rated along 9 dimensions. A mastery score report was also distributed, and students rated it on the same 9 dimensions. The ratings were compared to determine which the students perceived as more useful.
Results:
The students rated the mastery score report significantly better on each of the 9 dimensions and in aggregate.
Conclusion:
Pharmacy students perceived the mastery score report as more useful in helping them improve their achievement of educational outcomes.
