* MEDEV workshop: workplace based assessment: a role
in undergraduate medicine
Student doctors need to gain experience in postgraduate
assessment methods, ie, workplace-based. Unlike the more
formal assessments such as the OSCE, Placement-based
Assessments are not always well received and can be perceived
as unfair by students, and too time consuming by the clinicians
asked to be assessors.
This workshop aims to identify and discuss the problems and
their solutions in the introduction of Undergraduate Placement Based Assessment.
