Abstract:
Background: The Objective Structured Clinical Examination （OSCE）–Reflection Method （OSCE-R）, a version of the OSCE for training physical therapists which incorporates group reflection through video, has been developed and implemented in our study. The purpose of this research was to introduce the OSCE-R to the second-year students and to examine its effects on learning.
Method: The subjects were 91 second-year students of the physical therapy department of our university. Before and after group reflection, OSCE score comparison, reflection sheet analysis, a questionnaire survey, and interview investigation were performed.
Results and Discussion: The OSCE scores increased significantly, and students learned the importance of reflection and empathy with patients. The combination of theory and clinical practice helped students to actively learn while crossing boundaries between school and hospital.
