 INTRODUCTION

“An approach to the assessment of clinical

competence in which the components of
competence are assessed in a well planned or
structured way with attention being paid to
objectivity”
(Harden 1988).
 CONTI…

• OSCE was developed in University of Dundee

(Dundee, Scotland) in the early 1975 by Dr. Harden
and his colleagues

• OSCE is a means of assessing clinical competency

based on objective testing through direct
observation.

• More than 50 countries accepted it

 
 BACKGROUND OF STUDY
• The objective structured clinical examination
(OSCE) has been in use in the assessment of
medical students for over 20years.
• In the last 10 years, there has been increasing
interest in this form of assessment in other
health professional disciplines, such as nursing
and physiotherapy
(Walters and Adams, 2002).
 CONTI….
• Moreover, the important of feedback from
nursing students and faculty has been useful
in effecting improvements to the process and
greater emphasis has been placed on the
teaching and evaluation of history taking,
communication, and technical competencies.
 NEED FOR STUDY
• National nursing research unit, Kings
College, London, 2009 expressed its
Concern about the quality and safety of
health care and created a mandate for
change in the preparation of health care
professionals. Therefore, the supervisors to
be trained in acquiring skills in
evaluating / grading students in their
clinical placements.
 CONT….
• According to Dolly.G (2007) the traditional
methods of evaluation through the use of
behavioral objectives and tools like formal
or structured test in the classroom or clinical
skill verification have been criticized and
not enough to provide a holistic assessment
of individual learning.
 CONT….

• Mosaley LG, et al,. (2005) states that the

present day nursing curriculum demands a
move away from the conventional academic
forms of assessment to more creative and
innovative ones. Hence alternative methods
are being sought to assess a broader range of
student knowledge and capabilities.
 CONT….

• Zentralbl Chir, (2012) stated that in this

method a large number of students can be
assessed relatively in a shorter period of time
unlike the conventional method. Moreover the
feedback received from the faculty and
students regarding this OSCE as one of the
teaching and evaluation method shows
favorable one.
 PROBLEM STATEMENT

A study to evaluate the effectiveness of Video

Assisted Teaching Program regarding
Objective Structured Clinical Examination in
terms of knowledge and attitude among B.sc
nursing students at TMCON, Moradabad.

attitude of b.sc nursing students regarding
OSCE.

• To assess the effectiveness of VATP on

knowledge & attitude of b.sc nursing

 PURPOSE

The purpose of this study is to enhance the

knowledge and to develop positive attitude of
nursing students toward OSCE and to promote
OSCE as a examination method.
 CONT….

 CONCEPTUAL FRAME
WORK

A conceptual framework for the present study is

based on general system theory with input,
process, output and feedback. It serves as a
model for viewing people as an interacting with
the environment. The theory was developed by
Ludwig Von Bertalanffy in 1968.
 CONCEPTUAL FRAME
WORK

INPUT
• In the general system theory input is the term
for movement of matter, energy or information
from the environment. In the present study the
inputs are the Socio- Demographic Performa,
close ended knowledge questionnaire, and 4
point likert scale based on OSCE.
 CONCEPTUAL FRAME
WORK

PROCESS
• In theory the processes used by the system to
convert raw materials or energy from the
environment into products that are used either
by the system itself or the environment.
Process for the present study
 CONCEPTUAL FRAME
WORK

• Process for the present study Investigator

applied the closed ended knowledge
questionnaire and 4 point likert scale based on
OSCE to students for identify the pre level of
knowledge and attitude among them regarding
OSCE, students then exposed to treatment
VATP on OSCE and its application in nursing.

WORK

• Post-test will be taken after 5 days by using

the same close ended knowledge questionnaire
and 4 point likert scale based on OSCE.

regulate itself and provides information about
the system output and its feedback as input. In
the present study, the feedback can be
initiated after estimating output when there is a
low score in the student knowledge and
