- Abstract: Due to pediatric patients,there are the absence of clinical cases and the conflict between physicians and patients during teaching. Formative assessment(FA)is a teaching method to provide feedback and correctives at each stage in the teaching-learning process,which has been applied in clinical training for medical students and resident standardizing training recent years. Standardized patient(SP)is a simulated teaching tool,and when SPs are introduced in formative assessment by applied to history taking,patient education and counseling and communication skills. The combination not only solves the scarcity of clinical cases,but avoids doctor-patient contradiction. Therefore,SPs provide a broader application prospect for formative assessment. In fact,the combination offers new ideas for pediatric teaching.
