Perceptions of medical students toward assessors in interprofessional education / 한국의학교육

ABSTRACT

Purpose@#This study aims to establish if medical students think it is fair to be assessed by nursing professors in interprofessional education (IPE) and why. @*Methods@#Eighty-seven third-year medical students who participated in the IPE in 2022 submitted self-reflection essays. They were asked how they perceived the assessors, and 86 medical students responded to content analyses. @*Results@#Sixty-seven students (77.9%) agreed to be assessed by nursing professors. They believed that interprofessional assessment is possible because it is an IPE. They also believed that this was an opportunity to be assessed from various perspectives. Nineteen students (22.1%) objected because the assessment criteria may be different and nursing professors would not understand the learning experiences of medical students. @*Conclusion@#Regarding the reasons medical students oppose it, IPE developers should supplement the development of assessment criteria and understand learners’ experiences during planning assessment.
