q2 i? There was no significant difference between the virtual and traditional groups in practical exam scores evaluated by OSCE. → Mosalanejad 2012

Evidence¶

Mosalanejad 2012¶

Mosalanejad, L.; Shahsavari, S.; Sobhanian, S.; & Dastpak, M. (2012). The effect of virtual versus traditional learning in achieving competency-based skills. Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education, 13(2). https://dergipark.org.tr/en/pub/tojde

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Quasi-experimental study comparing practical skill performance via objective structured clinical examination; Table 1 reports practice means of 17.41±1.30 (traditional) versus 16.97±2.08 (virtual), P=0.24. Equivalence was not formally tested; the article reports no significant difference.

"However, there was no significant difference in the two groups in practical exam score evaluated by OSCE test; that is, both groups were similar in their ability to demonstrate the skills correctly."
